Disarming Your System - DSC MAXSYS PC4020 Instruction Manual

Stay Arming
This feature, if enabled, will allow you to arm the perimeter zones while
leaving some interior zones inactive so that you can remain on the
premises while the system is armed. When you enter your access code to
arm the system and do not exit the premises through a designated exit/
entry door, the system will arm in the Stay mode, automatically bypassing
the interior zones.
The interior zones can be reactivated at any time by entering [*][1] at any
keypad. If you reactivate the interior zones, be sure to only inhabit areas
not covered by motion detectors. To access areas protected by motion
sensors, you must enter your security code to disarm the system.
Arming Without Entry Delay
The entry delay is the period during which someone may enter an armed
area without causing an alarm, providing time to get to a keypad to disarm
the system. If you wish to arm your system without the entry delay, enter
[*][9] then your access code. The Armed light will flash as a reminder that
the system is armed and has no entry delay. The system will bypass the
interior zones. An entry through any exit/entry door will create an instant
alarm.
Quick Arm
When the Quick Arm feature is enabled, you can arm the system by
pressing [*][0], instead of your access code.
Please note that pressing [*][0] will only allow you to arm the system; to
disarm, you must enter a valid access code. Your system administrator
will inform you if the Quick Arm feature has been enabled on your system.

1.4 Disarming Your System

1. Enter the premises through a designated exit/entry door. Entering
the premises through any door not designated as a point of entry
will cause an immediate alarm. As soon as the exit/entry door is
opened, the keypad sounder will beep and the entry delay will begin.
The entry delay provides up to 255 seconds to disarm the system.
2. Go to the keypad and enter your access code. If you make an error
when entering the code, press the [#] key and enter the code again.
The Armed light will turn off and the keypad buzzer will stop. A
valid access code must be entered before the entry delay time expires.
If an alarm occurred while the panel was armed, the "View Memory"
message will be on the display with the zone name for the zone that caused
the alarm. The display will keep those messages on for two minutes or
until the [#] key is pressed. The keypad will then return to it's idle state.
