Quick Exit in Away Mode

A programmable option called Quick Exit
may be displayed on the Security screen
while the system is armed in the Away
mode. Tapping the Quick Exit button starts a
timer to allow someone to exit or enter
through a sensor‐protected door
programmed for delay without having to
disarm the entire system. When the delay
timer runs out, the system returns to the
normal Away mode.
TIP: If interior sensors are installed in the
system in certain areas, do not violate
those sensors when using the Quick Exit
feature in Away mode.

Auto Stay Mode

The system may have been programmed by
the installer for Auto Stay mode. If this
option is on and the system is armed in Away
mode, if an exit/entry delay sensor is not
triggered before the Exit Delay expires (no
one leaves the premises), the system
automatically arms in Stay mode instead of
Away mode.
NOTE: Quick options can be turned on
or off by your installer. Refer to
"Installer Programmed Options" on
page 40, to see which options have
been set for your system.

Arming to Away Mode

Use the Away mode to arm the system when
everyone will be leaving the home. The
Away mode normally has an Entry Delay so
someone with a user code can re‐enter
without causing an alarm. Interior and
perimeter sensors are armed in the Away
mode.
