cases, you must subdisarm the panel before accessing these areas to avoid causing
an alarm. Environmental sensors, such as smoke and carbon monoxide, stay active at
all times.
In this level, only 24-hour sensors are active.
This level arms the door and window sensors, while leaving the interior motion sensors
disarmed.
This level allows you to arm the interior motion sensors, while leaving the exterior door
and window sensors disarmed.
This level allows you to arm the interior motion sensors and the exterior door and
