How To Arm - DSC PC 4020 - V3.0 Manual

If required, the system may have a global keypad. A global keypad can
access any partition. When you enter your access code at a global keypad,
you will be asked which partition you would like to arm. The keypad will
only offer the partitions available for your access code.
The keypad will display the message "Enter Your Access Code" when it
is not in use. Sometimes, it may display the time and date. Whatever the
display, entering a valid access code on an idle keypad will access the
system.

1.2 How to Arm

Prepare the partition to be armed by closing all protected doors and
windows. Also, cease any movement in areas covered by motion detectors.
If the time and date appears on the LCD keypad display, press the [#] key.
The "Enter Code to Arm System" message should appear. If the display
reads "Secure System Before Arming," ensure that all doors and windows
have been shut and that all motion has ceased.
Once the "Enter Code to Arm System" message has appeared, enter your
4- or 6-digit access code. If the access code was entered incorrectly, the
keypad will beep steadily for two seconds.
For Single-Partition Access Codes
When a single-partition access code is entered, the system will select to
arm the partition your code has access to. The "Exit delay in Progress"
message will be displayed and the keypad will beep three times quickly.
The exit delay will begin, providing a window of up to two minutes for
you to exit the partition without causing an alarm.
Exit the premises through the designated exit/entry door. A timer will
appear in the right side of the LCD keypad display indicating the
remaining time in the exit delay period. When the allowed exit time expires,
the partition will be armed. The message "Enter Code to Disarm System"
will appear on the keypad.
For Multi-Partition Access Codes
When a multi-partition access code is entered, you must tell the system
which partition(s) you wish to arm. The system will only offer to arm the
partitions for which your code is programmed. Once you have entered
your code, the display will read:
(0) TO ARM
(Partition Label) R
The lower right hand corner of the display will show the partition status
using the letter "R" for the partitions which are Ready to be armed, "A"
for the partitions which are already Armed and "N" for those partitions
which are not yet secured. To arm the partition indicated on the display,
press the number in parentheses (in this case, [0]) or press the [*] key. The
exit delay will begin, providing a window of up to two minutes for you to
exit the partition without causing an alarm. Once the exit delay has
expired, the partition will be armed.
