Arming In The Latchkey Mode; Disarming Under Duress; Using Keyfob Transmitters - Visonic POWERMASTER-10 User Manual

OPERATING THE POWERMASTER-10 SYSTEM
Forced arming "HOME" is performed in a similar
manner, as follows:
PRESS
[Enter code]
(to mute the buzzer)
Go to interior zone
ARM indicator flashes during the armed state.

Arming in the Latchkey Mode

This mode, if enabled by the installer, is useful for a
parent at work who wants to be sure that his children
have returned from school and have disarmed the
system. A special "latchkey" message will be sent
out when the system is disarmed by a "latchkey
user".
Latchkey users are holders of user codes 5 through 8 or
users of Keyfob transmitters 5 through 8. The latchkey
message is considered an alert and not an alarm, and
is therefore sent to the private telephones programmed
by the user as targets for alert messages.
Latchkey arming is possible only when you arm
"AWAY". To arm in the Latchkey mode, proceed as
follows:
PRESS
(Within 2 seconds)
Vacate the premises
Note: Latchkey must be enabled by your installer.
ARM indicator lights during the armed state.

Disarming under Duress.

If you are forcibly compelled to disarm the system,
enter the duress code (2580 by default) or another
code set by the installer. Disarming will take place
normally but a silent alarm will be transmitted to the
monitoring station.

Using Keyfob Transmitters

Using portable keyfobs (KF-234 PG2) you can also
conveniently arm and disarm the system from
outside the premises, initiate "panic alarms" and
even use it as a remote control.- see figure 2.
The KF-234 PG2 commands are authenticated and
encrypted using high security AES - 128 encryption
standard, hence malicious "code grabbing" is virtually
impossible.
Arming & disarming with Keyfobs:
↓
To arm or disarm the system press the respective
key (see Figure 2). The keyfob will confirm with a red
LED blink and buzzer beep and will transmit your
request to the panel.

If the operation is successfully completed, the green
LED lights momentarily and a "happy tune" is heard.
If the operation cannot be completed, for example,
when the system is "not ready", the red LED lights
steadily and a "sad tune" is heard.
Arming in Latchkey mode (*):
Pressing AWAY twice within 2 seconds initiates
Latchkey arming, if enabled by the installer.
Using the AUX key ( ) (*):
The AUX key on the KF-234 PG2 keyfob can be
configured by the installer to provide you with any of
the following options:
A. Arming the system in the INSTANT mode (*):
This is the default option. Pressing the AUX ( )
button immediately after arming, during exit
delay, will arm the system in "instant" mode.
This means cancelling the entry delay causing
↓
the system to trigger an immediate alarm upon
entering the protected premises via any zone.
To prevent false alarms, you, and other keyfob
holders, must disarm the system by pressing the
DISARM (
entering the protected premises.
B. Skip exit delay: Pressing the AUX ( ) button
during the exit delay will immediately stop the
exit delay beeps.
C. Controlling a gate or another electrical
device:
opens/closes an electrically-controlled gate, or
controls a chosen electrical device via PGM
output of the system.
