ARMING PERIMETER ONLY
WITH ENTRY DELAY ON
Use this key when staying inside, but expect someone to use an entry/exit door later.
1. Enter your security code and press the STAY key.
2. The keypad beeps three times and displays the armed STAY message. The red
ARMED indicator lights. Note that there is an exit delay in effect before arming actually
takes place. See the note below.
3. After arming, an alarm sounds immediately if a protected perimeter window or non-
entry/exit door is then opened, but you may otherwise move freely throughout the
premises.
Anyone entering later can enter through an entry/exit door without causing an alarm, but
they must disarm the system within the entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm.
If you wish to open the entry/exit door to let someone in after arming STAY, you can re-
start the exit delay at any time – simply press the [ ] key, and then let that person in.
This will avoid having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again.
N o t e : When you first arm the system in the STAY mode, "You may exit now" will be
displayed on the second line of an Alpha keypad during the programmed exit
delay. This delay is in effect in the system even when arming STAY. When the
exit delay period ends, the system is fully armed in the STAY mode.
