Chime feature

When the chime feature is on, opening a door or window causes the panel to beep
twice and display the sensor's name. You can only turn the chime feature on or off
when the system is disarmed (level 1).
To turn the feature on or off, press Chime (7). When on, the panel alternates between
displaying the current time and CHIME ON.

Exit delay time

After arming your system, you need time to exit the building so you won't set off an
alarm. Exit delay is the period of time you have after arming the system to leave the
premises through a designated delay door.
After you arm the system to level 3, the panel siren sounds three quick status beeps
indicating that the system accepted the command and has started the exit delay
time. During the exit delay time, the system sounds one beep every four seconds. Exit
the premises before the exit delay time expires. During the last 10 seconds of the exit
delay time, you will hear a beep every second, warning you that the time is about to
expire. At this point, leave quickly or disarm the system. When the delay expires, there
will be three more quick status beeps. These beeps indicate that the exit delay has
ended. Opening an armed door or window after the exit delay has expired causes an
alarm or starts the entry delay.
Your installer will work with you to decide which doors should be delay doors and
determine the delay time that will work best for you and your family. The installer will
program your system and record the information in "Entry and exit delay time" on
page 27.

Entry delay time

Upon returning to the premises, you need enough time to open the door and get to a
touchpad to disarm the system. Entry delay time is the period of time you have to
disarm the system after you open a designated delay door.
When you unlock and enter the designated delay door, the panel siren sounds one
beep every four seconds indicating that the entry delay time has begun and that you
must disarm the system to avoid setting off an alarm. During the last 10 seconds of
the entry delay time, you will hear one beep every second.
Your installer will work with you to decide which doors should be delay doors and
determine the delay time that will work best for you and your family. The installer will
