(Full for the whole system, Part for partition 1, or Perimeter for partition 2) within 6 seconds. The
system/partition is disarmed.
If the user code is assigned to one partition only, or only one partition is armed, this partition is
disarmed immediately.
3.12. Additional Arming Options
3.12.1.
Forced Arming
Forced arming enables you to arm the system when the system is not ready. For example, if a door protected by a
magnetic contact is open, you may arm the system on condition that the door will be closed by the end of the Exit
delay. If the door is still open after the exit delay expires, an alarm is generated.
Two conditions enable you to perform Forced arming:
Forced arming is enabled – see p. 56, 9.3.1 Forced Arm.
The sensor that is causing the System Not Ready condition is Force Arm enabled – see p. 47, 7.3.6 Force
Arm.
3.12.2. Instant Arming
Instant arming is a feature that allows you to cancel the entry delay after Part or Perimeter, or Partition arming the
system. For this feature to function, it must be enabled in programming – see p. 57, 9.3.4 Instant Arming.
To instantly arm the system.

3.12.3. Remote Arming/Disarming via SMS
You can arm and disarm the system remotely by sending the SMS commands from a cellular phone to the Cellular
Communication Module (GPRS or Ethernet). Additionally, you can check the arm status of the system by sending an
Arm Status request message.
Each SMS command contains the following elements:
SMS Command Descriptor (up to 43 characters of free text)
# (delimiter – separates the descriptor from the actual command)
User Code (4 digits)
Command (120=Disarm all Partitions, 121=Full Arm, 122=Part Arm/Partition 1 Arm, 123=Perimeter
Arm/Partition 2 Arm, 124=Full + Perimeter Arm, 125=Part + Perimeter Arm/Partitions 1 and 2 Arm,
128=Partition 1 Disarm, 129=Partition 2 Disarm, 200=Arm Status)
The following example shows the format of an SMS command for arming the system:
Caution: While the SMS Command Descriptor is optional, you must start the SMS command with the #
symbol for the system to accept the command.
After an SMS command is executed by the system, you can program the system to return a confirmation message to the
sender – see p. 73, 10.7.5 SMS Confirmation.
3.12.4. Arm Status Reply
On receiving an Arm Status request message, the system returns a status message to the sender. This message includes
the system status and the descriptor of the user or the device used to arm/disarm the system.
The following example shows an Arm Status Reply message reporting that the system was fully armed by Master User.
