3.4: Arming/Disarming

The following section explains the various arming and disarming methods.
Arming
When all zones are secured the system can be armed normally. Arming the system
transmits a message to the central station identifying which user performed the
operation.
To arm the system:
1. Check that all zones are closed; the Ready LED lights up to indicate that the
system is ready to be armed.
2. Enter a valid user code; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
Forced Arming
Forced arming enables the user to arm the system with open zones. Electronics Line
recommends waiting until all of the zones are secured and the system can be armed
normally. Note: If zones are still not secured after the exit delay has ended, an
alarm will be generated.
To force arm the system:
Press Q, 8.
1.
2. Enter a valid user code; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
Quick Arming
This feature allows the Penta to be armed without a valid user code. Quick arming the
system transmits an "Armed by User 1" message to the central station.
To "Quick" arm the system:
1. Check that all zones are closed; the Ready LED lights up to indicate that the
system is ready to be armed.
Press Q, 0; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
