Chapter 3.0 Arming the System

3.7 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 an 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
cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be bypassed again before the next arming.
Note:
Two-hour zones can only be unbypassed manually.

3.8 Bypass Group

on a regular basis, you can program them into a bypass group, so that you do not have to bypass each
zone individually. Note that you can only program one bypass group at a time.
