Introduction To Scheduling

General
The scheduling features allow certain operations to be
automated, such as arming, disarming, bypassing of
zones, and activating relay outputs.
The system uses time periods (a programmed period of
time with a start and stop time) for defining open/close
schedules, holiday schedules, user-defined temporary
schedules, and access schedules for users.
Scheduled events are programmed by user-friendly
menu modes of programming (#80, #81, #83, and #93
modes), explained in detail in this section. These menus
take you step by step through the options.
Auto Arming
The system can automatically arm (AWAY Mode) a
partition at the end of a pre-determined closing
(arming) time period.
Auto Arming can be delayed three ways: by use of the
Auto-Arm Delay, the Auto-Arm Warning, or by
manually extending the closing (arming) time period
with a keypad command.
The system can also automatically bypass any open
zones when auto arming.
Auto-Arm Delay
Auto-Arm Delay provides a delay (grace period) before
auto arming. It starts at the end of the closing time
period.
The delay is set in 4-minute increments, up to 56
minutes in partition-specific program field 2*05. At the
expiration of this delay, the Auto-Arm Warning will
start.
Auto-Arm Warning
The Auto-Arm Warning causes the keypad sounder to
warn the user of an impending Auto-Arm.
The warning can be set from 1 to 15 minutes prior to
the arming in partition-specific program field 2*06.
During this period the keypad beeps every 15 seconds
and displays "AUTO ARM ALERT." During the last 60
seconds, the keypads beep every 5 seconds.
The panel arms at the conclusion of the Auto-Arm
Warning period.
Force Arm
The Force Arm option causes the panel to attempt to
bypass any faulted zones prior to auto arming (panel
performs a force-arm). This option is set in partition-
specific program field 2*08.
Scheduling Options
Extend Closing Time Period
A user can manually delay the arm (closing) time period
by 1 or 2 hours. This is done by entering a keypad
command (User Code + #82), which then prompts the
user to enter the desired extension time of 1 or 2.
This feature is useful if a user must stay on the
premises later than usual.
The Auto-Arm delay and warning time periods begin at
the end of the extension.
Auto Disarming
The system can automatically disarm a partition at the
end of a pre-determined opening (disarm) time period.
The disarming time can be delayed by using the Auto-
Disarm Delay feature.
Disarm Delay
Auto-Disarm Delay provides a delay before auto
disarming. This delay is added to the end of the disarm
time period.
The delay is set in 4-minute increments, up to 56
minutes, in partition-specific program field 2*07.
Restrict Disarming
This option allows disarming by users only during the
disarm time period and during the arming time period
(in case user needs to re-enter premises after manually
arming the partition).
This option is set in partition-specific field 2*10. If field
2*10 is set, we highly recommend setting field 2*11, as
well. This field allows the partition to be disarmed
outside the arm/disarm time periods only if the
partition is in alarm.
Exception Reports
This option allows the reporting of openings and
closings to the central station only if the arming and
disarming occurs outside of the predetermined opening
and closing time periods.
This option is set in partition-specific field 2*09.
The system can be programmed to send No Opening
and No Closing reports if the partition is not armed or
disarmed by the end of the corresponding time period.
