Configuring the Alarm Transmission Delay

The Alarm Transmission Delay period (also called the Abort Window) is the length of time after an alarm
sounds for the customer to enter a valid key pad code before the central monitoring station is contacted.
This period starts when the customer fails to enter his key pad code during the Entry Delay period. The
central monitoring station is not contacted until after the Alarm Transmission Delay period. This helps
prevent false alarms.
The Alarm Transmission Delay period is configurable by an Installer.
