Exit delay
Protest during arming
Exit delay
The exit delay is the amount of time the system gives you to exit the home before
the system is armed. This is programmed by the installer. After you arm the
system you will hear beeps during the exit delay. See Status beeps on page 20.
Silent exit
The silent exit feature silences the status beeps that accompany the exit delay.
See Status beeps on page 20. Press SILENT after you arm the system to silence
status beeps. The panel will still beep at the beginning and end of the exit delay.
Enabling silent exit doubles the exit delay time.
Entry delay
The entry delay is the amount of time the system gives you to disarm the system
after entering the home. This is programmed by the installer. When you enter
your home, you will hear beeps during the entry delay. See Status beeps on
page 20.
No entry delay
Use the No Delay feature when you are staying at home, for instance when you
are asleep, or when you're away from home and will carry a wireless touchpad
that will allow you to disarm the system before opening a protected door. Check
with your installer to find out how this option is programmed.
Simon XT User Manual
Description
Some active sensors cause immediate alarms when tripped. Other
sensors, if enrolled in a delayed response group, start an entry
delay that lets you enter the premises and disarm the system. When
you enter your home, you will hear beeps during the entry delay. If
the system has not been disarmed by the end of the entry delay, an
alarm occurs.
The entry delay time is programmed by the installer.
If the system was armed with the no delay feature activated, there
will be no entry delay and the alarm will occur immediately.
The exit delay is the amount of time the system gives you to exit the
home before the system is armed. During the delay, you can vacate
the premises through a delayed response door without causing an
alarm. Beeps will sound during the exit delay. The exit delay time is
programmed by the installer.
The system may protest an arming level change if certain abnormal
conditions exist. If a sensor that is active in the requested arming
level is open, the system sounds protest beeps and automatically
bypasses the open sensor (depending on the system configuration).
