Entry/Exit Delays; Exit Delay; Entry Delay - Honeywell Lynx Plus Series User Manual

Exit Delay

Exit delay begins immediately after arming the system, and gives you time to leave through the
designated exit door without setting off an alarm. A slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay
period, if programmed. During the last 10 seconds of the exit delay fast beeps will sound as a warning
that the delay time is nearing its end. The exit beeps cannot be silenced.
Exit Alarms
To minimize false alarms sent to the alarm monitoring company, your system may have been
programmed for this feature. Ask your installer if Exit Alarm is active for your system.
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted
when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry
delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the
message "CA" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No
message is sent to the alarm monitoring company. To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone
must be made re-secured; to clear the display, enter your security code and press the OFF key.
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or interior zone is
still open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is sent to the alarm monitoring
company. The message "EA Exit Error" is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number
indicating the faulted zone. The alarm will continue to sound until the system is disarmed or timeout
ocurs. To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed by entering your security code and pressing the
OFF key; and the message "CA Alarm Cancelled" is displayed on the keypad, indicating that the alarm
has been cancelled (if this feature is enabled by the installer). To clear the display, enter your security
code and press the OFF key a second time. An exit alarm also results if an entry/exit door or interior
zone is faulted within two minutes after the end of the exit delay.

Entry Delay

Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the designated entrance
door. You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The
keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry
delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second can be used for a
secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system. You
can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the NO DELAY key when arming. This can
provide greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See Arming
the System section for procedure. See your installer for delay times programmed for your system.
