Arming Methods

3.3.1

Away Arming

When the system is armed in the Away arming mode , all interior zones and perimeter zones are activated. If motion
is detected in the interior zones, or if one of the perimeter zones is violated, the alarm sequence will begin.
To arm in the Away mode, a valid access key must be entered and the premises must be exited through a
designated Exit/Entry door. When the final exit door has been closed or when the Push to Set function key has been
pressed, the system will be fully armed. The exit delay can be restarted by pressing the Away arming function key
before the exit delay expires.
3.3.2

Auto Bypass - Stay Arming

Stay arming allows the user to arm the system without leaving the premises. All zones programmed as Stay/Away or
Instant Stay/Away will be bypassed when the user stay arms the system, so that the user does not have to bypass
interior zones manually. (See section 5.2 "Zone Attributes")
When the system is armed with the Stay function key, if any zones on the system have been programmed as stay/
away zones, the Bypass light will turn ON. The Bypass light will remain on to inform the user that the interior zones have
been automatically bypassed by the panel.
3.3.3

Automatic Arming

The system can be programmed to Auto-arm at a specific time every day if it is in the disarmed condition. In order
for the Auto-arm function to work properly, you must program the correct time of day. For programming the clock
and auto-arm times, see "[*][6] User Functions" .
When the system's internal clock matches the Auto-arm Time, the panel will check the system status. If the system is
armed, the panel will do nothing until the next day at the auto-arm time, when it will check the system again. If the
system is disarmed at the auto-arm time, the panel will sound the buzzers of all keypads for one minute. If a valid
access code is entered, Auto-arming will be cancelled.
If auto-arm is cancelled, the number of the user who cancelled the auto-arm will be logged in the event buffer.
If no code is entered, the panel will Auto-arm. If a zone is violated, the panel will transmit a Partial Closing reporting
code – if programmed – to indicate to the central station that the system is not secure. If the zone is restored, the
panel will add the zone back into the system.
Auto-arming can only be cancelled by entering a valid access code at any keypad.
3.4 [✱] Commands
!
[ ] [1] Zone Bypassing
The [!] [1] keypad command can be used to bypass individual zones. It can be used if the user wants to have access
to an area while the partition is armed or to bypass a defective zone (bad contact, damaged wiring) until service can be
provided. A bypassed zone will not cause an alarm. Instructions on zone bypassing can be found in the PC5015 Instruction
Manual ("Zone Bypassing"). When the partition is disarmed, all zones bypassed using [!] [1] will be unbypassed, except
for 24-hr zones.
If Code Required for Bypass is enabled an access code will be required to enter the Bypass mode. Only access codes
with the Bypass attribute enabled will be able to bypass zones (see Section 3.4 "[!] Commands, [!] [5]").
Several features have been added to the [!][1] zone bypassing menu:
• Bypass Recall: Press [99] while in the [!][1] menu to recall the last set of bypassed zones.
• Clear Bypasses: Press [00] while in the [!][1] menu to clear all bypassed zones.
• Bypass Groups: Two programmable bypass groups can be recalled when in the [!][1] Bypass menu. To program a
bypass group, select the zones to be bypassed. Press [95] for Group #1, or [96] for Group #2. To recall these
groups, press [!][1] followed by [91] for Group #1 or [92] for Group #2.
If the Code Required for Bypass Code Required for Bypass Code Required for Bypass Code Required for Bypass option is enabled, access codes 40–42 must be used to access this feature.
Code Required for Bypass
For two-partition systems, Bypass Group #1 must be used on Partition 1, and Group #2 on Partition 2.

Trouble Display
The panel constantly monitors itself for several different trouble conditions. If a trouble condition is present, the
Trouble light will be ON and the keypad will beep twice every 10 seconds. The trouble beep can be silenced by
pressing any key on any keypad. If Bell Squawk on Trouble is enabled (section [014], option[5]), the bell will
squawk every 10 seconds when a trouble condition is present.
To view trouble conditions from an ICON/LED keypad:
1. Press [✱] [2].
2. The keypad will flash the Trouble light. The zone indicator lights corresponding to the present trouble
conditions will be ON.
When using an LCD keypad, the trouble conditions will be listed on the display; the user must simply use the arrow
(< >) keys to scroll through the list of present trouble conditions.
