arming modes and the results of each.

Mode
AWAY
Press to arm when no one is staying on the
premises. 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.
STAY Press to arm when you are staying home, but
might expect someone to use the entrance door
later.
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.
NIGHT
Press to arm when you are staying home and do
not expect anyone to use the entrance door.
Your installer may have configured NIGHT Mode

mode are disabled. Note that the Voice feature must be enabled (by the installer) for this icon to function correctly during an
alarm condition.
Note: 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 at the option of the user by consulting with the installer. Note that emergency, carbon monoxide, and fire-type alarms
are normally reported without delay.
