Description
Pressing any key will silence the keypad sounder for 10 seconds. Disarming the system will
silence both keypad and external sounders.
Press the OFF [1] key to silence the keypad sounder and, for fire alarms, the external
sounder. The detector sounding stops when the contaminated air is cleared from the
detector; see the detector's instructions for further information.
If enabled (field ∗21), you can press [#] in place of the system's security code, plus the
desired arming key (Away, Stay, Instant, Maximum)
If programmed (*57 Function Key menu mode), lettered keys A-D can be used for arming,
using options 3-AWAY, 4-STAY, 5-NIGHT-STAY, or 6-Step-Arming
If used, no security code is required to arm the system.
When the system is disarmed, any zones that were in an alarm condition during the armed
period will be displayed. To clear this display, simply repeat the disarm sequence (enter
the security code and press the OFF key) again.

the entry/exit door is not opened and closed within the programmed exit delay time, the
system will automatically arm in STAY mode if armed from a wired keypad (non-RF
device). If the door is opened and closed within the exit delay period, the system arms in
AWAY mode.

Arming" above). See "Arming Away" above for Auto-Stay arming feature.

If entry delay or an alarm is active, you do not need to press
Enter code + OFF [1].

Enter code + BYPASS [6] + zone number(s).
To automatically bypass all faulted zones, use the "Quick Bypass" method. Enter code +
BYPASS + [#], then wait for all open zones to be displayed. Arm when display indicates
"ZONE BYPASSED" and "READY TO ARM".
Enter code + CHIME [9]. To turn chime off, enter code + CHIME again.
If relay outputs (via a 4204, or 4229), or Powerline Carrier devices are used, two keypad
entries available to the user are included. If programmed, these entries can be used to
manually activate or deactivate the device(s) for starting or stopping some action, such as
turning lights on or off, etc. These keypad entries are:
[Security Code] + # + 7 + [2-digit Device #] activates (starts) that device.
[Security Code] + # + 8 + [2-digit Device #] deactivates (stops) that device.
