4.2 Leaving when the System is Already Armed - Quick Exit

Use the Quick Exit feature if the system is already armed and you would like to leave without disarming
and rearming the system. Quick Exit uses the same hot keys as Quick Arming, and it provides you with a
two minute exit delay to leave the premises without triggering an alarm. Once the door you leave from
closes, any time remaining on the 2 minute exit delay will be cancelled.

4.3 Arming Errors and Exit Faults

The HS Series audibly notifies you of any errors when you are attempting to arm the system or exit the
premises.

4.3.1 Arming Errors

An error tone sounds if the system is unable to arm. Arming errors occur if:
• The system is not ready to arm (i.e., sensors are open).
• An incorrect user code is entered.
To Correct an Arming Error
1. Ensure all sensors are secure.
*
2. Press and try arming the system again. For details on arming the system, see one of the previ-
ous arming procedures.
3. If errors persist contact your installer.

4.3.2 Audible Exit Faults

NOTE:
Must be enabled by installer.
In an attempt to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault notifies you of an improper exit when arming
the system in the Away mode. Improper exits are caused by:
• Failing to exit the premises during the exit delay period.
• Failing to securely close the Exit/Entry door.
Improper exits cause the following system notifications:
• The keypad emits one continuous beep.
• The bell or siren sounds.
To Correct an Exit Fault
1. Re-enter the premises.
2. Disarm the system before the entry delay timer expires by entering your [access code].
3. Follow the Away arming procedure again, making sure to close the entry/exit door properly. For more
details see 4.1.1 "Away Arming the System with the Keypad".
