4.2 Night Arming

To night arm the system when it has been armed in Stay mode, press [ ][1] at the keypad. All inte-

rior zones will now be armed except for devices programmed as Night zones.
NOTE: Your installer can also program a function key on the keypad that allows you to arm the
system in Night mode. This allows Night arming to be activated by holding down the function key
for 2 seconds.
Night zones are only armed in Away mode; this permits limited movement within the premises
when the system is fully armed. Ensure that your installer has provided you with a list identifying
zones programmed as night zones. When the interior zones are activated (i.e., [ ][1]) you must

enter your access code to disarm the system in order to gain access to interior areas that have not
been programmed as night zones.

4.6 Siren Sounds After Away Arming

Audible Exit Fault
In order to reduce false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is designed to notify you of an improper exit
when arming the system. If you fail to securely close the entry/exit door during the programmed exit
delay period, the system will sound the alarm to indicate an improper exit (your installer will tell you
if this feature has been enabled on your system). If this occurs:
1. Re-enter the premises.
2. Enter your access code before the entry delay timer expires, to disarm the system.
3. Repeat the Away arming procedure, ensuring that the entry/exit door(s) are secured.
Arming Error

arm (i.e., sensors are open), or if an incorrect user code has been entered. If this happens, ensure all
sensors are secure, press [#] and try again.
