Arming / Disarming; Arming - Paradox User Manual

Chapter 2: Arming / Disarming
This chapter will cover the multiple arming methods that Magellan employs such as Regular arming and Stay arming. This chapter will
also cover disarming the system, what to do during a fire alarm, fire safety tips and panic alarms.

Arming

When your system is armed, it can respond to any breach in the protected zones by generating an alarm and by transmitting a report to
your monitoring station. Though the arming methods explained in this section pertain to arming through Magellan's keypad, the system
can also be armed using your remote control. See Remote Controls on page 7.
Exit Delay Timer
When you arm your system, it will trigger the Exit Delay Timer to provide you with enough time to exit the protected area before your
system is armed. You can program the Exit Delay Timer from 1 second to 255 seconds (default 45 seconds). Only the System
Master user can program the Exit Delay Timer. To program the Exit Delay Timer:
menu
System
Master code
If a Delay zone is opened and then closed while the system is in Exit Delay mode, the Exit Delay timer will be reduced to 10 seconds.
UL installations require a maximum exit delay of 60 seconds.
Regular Arming
This method is used for the everyday arming of your system. All
defined zones in the system must be closed (the green
in ON) to Regular arm the system. To Regular arm your system:
