The Home Security buttons are used to arm and disarm
doors, windows and motion sensors in your system. The
System Status button is used to give information on sys-
tem activity.
Arm
Turn on intrusion/burglary protection for your system. You
can arm door/window sensors, motion sensors or both
depending on the buttons you press.
Disarm
Turn off intrusion/burglary protection for your system.
Only intrusion/burglary sensors such as doors/windows
and motion are disarmed. Environmental sensors, such as
smoke and carbon monoxide stay armed at all times.
System Status
Press to hear information about your system. If the button
is lit, there is a problem with the system. If the button is
blinking, an alarm has occurred. Press the button to hear
what is wrong with the system. (See "Status Beeps".)

Exit Delay
Exit Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to
exit the home before the system is armed (between 5 and
254 seconds). This is programmed by the installer. When
you arm you will hear beeps during the exit delay (see the
table "Status Beeps" of this manual to determine the mean-
ing of panel/system beeps).
Your Exit Delay is set for ___ seconds.
Entry Delay
Entry Delay is the amount of time the system gives you to
disarm the system after entering the home. This is pro-
grammed by the installer. When you enter your home you
will hear beeps during the entry delay (see the table "Sta-
tus Beeps" of this manual to determine the meaning of
panel/system beeps).
Your Entry Delay is set for ___ seconds.
Quick Exit
The Quick Exit feature is used when someone wants to
briefly leave while the home is still armed (i.e. get the
newspaper). This feature needs to be enabled by your
installer. When you press the Disarm button the panel will
announce exit time on. This will allow a designated exit
door to be open for up to 2 minutes without triggering an
alarm.
H O M E S E C U R I T Y Latchkey
Latchkey is used to notify parents, via a numeric pager, if
children do not arrive home at a predetermined time and
disarm the system. For example, you set the Latchkey time
for 3:00 pm. If the system isn't disarmed by that time a
message is sent to your numeric pager (see "Numeric
Pager").
Subdisarm
If your system includes 24-hour protection sensors on
items such as gun or jewelry cases, you must subdisarm
the panel before accessing these areas to avoid causing an
alarm.
