Chapter 3.0 Arming the system

3.7 Alarm cancel window

There is a period of time in which you can cancel the alarm transmission. W hen the programmed
alarm transmission delay expires, canceling an alarm sends a message to the monitoring station.
When the cancellation message is successfully transmitted, the system beeps six times.
Note:
Your installer must enable and configure this feature.
l
For CP-01 systems, alarm transmission delay must not exceed 45 seconds.

3.8 Bypass zones

Use the zone bypassing feature when you need access to a protected area while the system i s
armed, or when a zone is temporarily out of service, but you need to arm the system. Bypassed
zones are not able to sound an alarm. As a result, bypassing zones reduces the level of security. If
you are bypassing a zone because it is not working, call a service technician immediately to resolve
the problem and restore your system to proper working order.
Ensure that no zones are unintentionally bypassed when arming your system. Zones cannot be
bypassed once the system is armed. Bypassed zones, except for 24-hour zones, are automatically
unbypassed each time the system is disarmed and must be bypassed again before the next arming, if
needed.
Notes:
24-hour zones can only be unbypassed manually.
l
For UL listed installations, zones can only be bypassed manually.
