Security System Operation

You can arm your system in one of three arming modes: Away, Stay, and Night. The following table lists the three
different arming modes and the results of each. Consult your security panel's user guide for more information.
Arming Mode
AWAY
Arming Away is used for protecting all perimeter and interior zones. When armed in AWAY, the
system sounds an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, or if any movement is detected
inside the premises.
Important: On Commercial systems, "Away Auto Stay" mode is shown as "Away" mode (with all
zones protected). Some systems will revert to the stay mode if a main entry zone is not activated,
before the end of the exit delay. This is a system programmable option enabled/disabled by the
installer. If this option is enabled the keypad will display "Armed Away Zone Bypassed" after the
exit delay expires. If the option is disabled the keypad will display "Armed Away All Secure" after
the exit delay expires.
STAY Arming Stay is used when you want all perimeter zones to be armed, but not the interior. This
leaves you the ability to move freely through the premise; also provides the ability for an entry
delay if an entry door is opened.
When armed in STAY, the system sounds an alarm if a protected door or window is opened, but
you may otherwise move freely throughout the premises. On Commercial systems, they system
will arm in the last stay mode used. Consult the System's user guide for more information.
NIGHT
Use when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use the entrance door. Your
installer may have configured NIGHT Mode differently; have the installer describe the actual
settings of this mode. On Commercial systems, they system will arm in the last stay mode
used. Consult the system's user guide for more information.
NOTE: The night mode icon may be configured for other options (Away, Stay, Instant,
Maximum, and Night). If the Night icon is configured for instant the keypad will display
"Armed Instant."

mode are disabled.
Note that the Voice Feature must be enabled (by the installer) for this icon to function correctly during an alarm
condition.
There is a communicator delay of 30 seconds. This delay will prevent a report to the central station if the control panel
is disarmed within 30 seconds after an intrusion alarm is triggered. This delay can be removed, or it can be increased
up to 45 seconds, programmable by the installer. Note that emergency, carbon monoxide, and fire-type alarms are
reported without delay.
