Using the Keyswitch

General

Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and
disarming a partition. A red and green light on the keyswitch plate indicate
the status of your system as follows:
Green Light: Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to be
Red Light: Lights when system is armed or memory of alarm exists.
Lit Steady: Partition is armed in AWAY mode.
Slow Flashing: Partition is armed in STAY mode.
Rapid Flashing: Memory of alarm, indicating an alarm has occurred.

Arming

To arm in the AWAY mode, turn the key to the right for 1 second and
release. Keypads will beep twice and the
red light will stay on steady.
To arm in the STAY mode, turn the
key to the right and hold for longer than
10 seconds, then release. Keypads will
beep three times and the red light will
flash slowly.

Disarming

To disarm the partition, turn the key
to the right and release. If an alarm has
occurred, the red light will be flashing
rapidly (memory of alarm).
NOTE: Your system may be
programmed to use the keyswitch to

status of the burglary portion of the
system. Check with your installer to see
if this feature has been enabled.
