Disarming The System - DSC Power608 Instruction Manual

Quick Exit
When the Quick Exit feature is enabled, pressing [ ][0], or the "Exit" button on the keypad, while the
system is armed will provide a two-minute window for you to exit the premises. During this time, you
may only open and close the designated Entry/Exit door once. Once the door is closed, the panel
will end the two-minute quick exit delay. If the door is opened again, or if the door is not closed after
two minutes, or if another zone is opened, the panel will begin the entry delay. Your installer will inform
you if the Quick Exit feature has been enabled on your system.

Disarming the System

Disarming from an LED Keypad:
Enter the premises through a designated Exit/Entry door. Entering by any other door will sound an
immediate alarm. As soon as the Exit/Entry door is opened, the keypad will beep to indicate that the
system should be disarmed. Go to the keypad and enter your access code. If you made an error
entering your code, re-enter the code correctly. As soon as the correct code is entered, the Armed
light will go out and the keypad will stop beeping.
The correct access code must be entered before the entry delay period expires. If a valid access
code is not entered during this time, the system will go into alarm. Your installer can change the entry
time delay.
If an alarm occurred while the system was armed, the Memory light and the zone light corresponding
to the zone that caused the alarm will flash for 30 seconds. After the 30-second period, the Memory
light and zone light will stop flashing and the panel will return to the Ready state. Pressing the [#] key
during the 30 second period will cancel the alarm memory display. To view other alarms, press [ ][3].
If a trouble was detected when the panel is disarmed, the Trouble light will turn ON (See "Viewing
Trouble Conditions" on page 11 to determine the source of the trouble.) Please note that troubles will
not display while the system is in the Alarm Memory Display mode.
Disarming from an LCD Keypad:
Upon entering through a designated Exit/Entry door, the keypad will beep and the entry delay will
