Re-Arm Omits 
No 
If ‘YES’: At rearm at the end of the confirmation time, this function 
will force an input (not a system tamper) causing an unconfirmed 
alarm to be omitted, whether it’s still in fault or not. 
Use Level Arm 
No 
If ‘YES’: The system becomes a ‘level arm’ (Having one partition 
set only at any one time, e.g. part sets). If ‘NO’: The system 
becomes a ‘partition’ system (setting more than once area at a 
time) 
Confirmed 
When 
Final Arm 
Final Arm: Confirmed signal only available after the system is 
armed. 
Exit Starts: Confirmed signal only available after the exit time has 
started. NOTE: Not compliant with DD243. 
Note: ‘Exit Starts’ must be selected in order for it to be entered in 
the logs. 
AutoSet Force 
No 
If ‘YES’ when autoset is in use (this is only available in the ARM 
software) the panel will still set even if an input is open at the time. 
Restrict PIN 
Use 
No 
If ‘YES’ the system prevents a pin code being entered on the 
Entry Time, but allows the system to be silenced once in alarm. 
NOTE: This option should always be selected when DD243 option 
6.4.5 is in use. 
Invert ATE 
O/Ps 
Yes If ‘YES’: ‘Positive Removed’ If ‘NO’: ‘Positive Applied’ 
Common Exit 
Mode 
Yes 
If set to ‘YES’, this will automatically select the ‘highest’ exit mode 
for all partitions. (0 = Timed, 1 = Final Door, 2 = Timed/Final Door, 
3 = PTS). 
For example, if Partition C is selected as Final Door and the rest 
of the partitions are selected as Timed, then because Final Door 
is ‘higher’ than Timed (Final door is 1 and Timed is 0), all 
partitions will be set to Final Door. If set to ‘NO’ the Exit Modes 
will be individually programmable to each partition. 
Flexi Unset 
No 
If set to ‘YES’, this will allow all codes with Flexi-Arm attribute 
enabled to pick and choose which partitions to arm/disarm during 
entry time. NOTE: This option should always be selected when 
DD243 option 6.4.5 is in use.
