7.3 Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming (Not to be used with UL Installations)
Section [131]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [2] OFF = Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming Disabled (default)
Option [2] ON = Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming Enabled
With this feature enabled, the control panel will always Force arm instead of Regular arm when a valid user access code with the
Force Arming Option is entered. In installations where the user must always Force arm when leaving the protected area, this
feature allows users to Force arm without pressing the [
FORCE] key before entering their user access code.
Force arming cannot be done using a keyswitch. Force arming is not supported by keyswitches.
7.4 Restrict Arming on Battery Fail
Section [130]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [5] OFF = Permit arming on battery failure (default)
Option [5] ON = Restrict arming on battery failure
If this option is enabled, the control panel will not arm the system if the control panel detects that the backup battery is
disconnected, that its fuse is blown, or that the battery voltage drops to less than 10.5V. The control panel will not arm the system
until all battery trouble conditions are rectified.
7.5 Restrict Arming on Tamper Failure
Section [130]: Arming/Disarming Options
Option [6] OFF = Permit arming on tamper failure (default)
Option [6] ON = Restrict arming on tamper failure
If this option is enabled, the control panel will not arm the system if the control panel detects a tamper trouble on one or more
zones. The control panel will not arm the system until all tamper trouble conditions are rectified.
This feature will not function if the Tamper Recognition Options (see page 25) are disabled or whenever the
tampered zone is bypassed and the Tamper Bypass Options (see page 26) have been enabled.
7.6 Timed Auto-Arming
Section [133] = Partition 1, [134] = Partition 2
Option [1] OFF = Timed Auto-Arming Disabled (default)
Option [1] ON = Timed Auto-Arming Enabled
Each partition can be programmed to arm every day at the time specified by the Auto-arm Timer. The Auto-arming Options (see
page 24) determine the partition's arming method. Any open zones detected when a partition is Auto-Armed will be bypassed
regardless of their definition (except 24Hr zones). The control panel will enter a 60-second exit delay period before arming the
system. At this point, Auto-arming can be cancelled by entering a valid access code. Once the partition has successfully armed,
the control panel can transmit the Timed Auto-arming report code programmed in section [172].
Example: To automatically arm partition 2 everyday at 6:15PM, enable Timed Auto-arming for partition 2 by turning on option [1]
in section [134]. Then key in 18:15 into section [112].
7.6.1 Auto-Arm Timer
Section [111] = Partition 1, [112] = Partition 2
Select the section corresponding to the desired partition and program the time (use the 24-hour clock i.e. 6:30PM =
18:30) that you wish the control panel to attempt to arm the selected partition and/or send the Late to Close report code.
7.7 No Movement Auto-Arming
Section [133] = Partition 1, [134] = Partition 2
Option [2] OFF = No Movement Auto-Arming Disabled (default)
Option [2] ON = No Movement Auto-Arming Enabled
If no movement occurs in a partition's protected area for the period specified by the No Movement Timer (see page 24), the
control panel can automatically arm that partition. The Auto-arming Option described on page 24 of this manual determines the
partition's arming method. Any open zones detected when a partition is Auto-armed will be bypassed regardless of their definition
(except 24Hr zones). Upon arming, the control panel will transmit the No Movement report code if programmed in section [172].
Regardless of whether the system was successfully armed or not, the control panel will always transmit the No Movement report
code if programmed in section [172]. If No Movement Auto-arming is disabled, the control panel will still send the No Movement
report code at the time specified by the No Movement Timer.
Example: To arm partition 1 whenever there is no movement for a period of 4 hours, enable No Movement Auto-arming for
partition 1 by turning on the [2] Option in section [133]. Then in section [075] enter 016 (16x15min = 240min = 4 hours).
