Zones that are currently preventing you from arming the system are easily distinguished by the
dierent row color.
Tapping the button will temporarily turn o, or “bypass” the aected
zones so you can arm your security system.
Tapping the grey Security Shield will open a Bypass Options screen which will allow you to see
the current status of all of your security zones, and give you the option to bypass all Arm-Blocking
Zones, or bypass any zone individually. If the aected zones are closed or troubles are resolved the
status will automatically update to Ready.
Tap the Security Status shield when it is in

Arming the System from the TouchScreen
To arm the system from the TouchScreen:
Special Rules
If you selected the Arm Away mode, you have until the Exit Delay is over to exit the premises.
Otherwise, the system is automatically armed in Arm Stay mode. There is still an Exit Delay
period for the other Arming modes, but they do not require that the door open and close during
the period.
If you open and shut an Entry/Exit door during the Exit Delay and then re-enter the premise, the
Exit delay restarts at 120 seconds for Arm Stay and Arm Night or 60 seconds for Arm Away. It will
only do this one time.
If an Entry/Exit door is left open at the end of Exit Delay, the Entry Delay immediately starts and,
if the system is not disarmed, an alarm will sound.
