Stay Arming
Stay arming will partially arm your system to permit you to remain
in your home by arming the outer zones of your system (e.g. doors
and windows) and ignoring interior zones (e.g. motion detectors).
All defined zones in the system must be closed (the green
light is ON) to Stay arm the system. To Stay arm your system:

Instant Arming

This arming method is the same as Stay arming (page 10) except
that the Entry Delay Timer (see page 12) is ignored. Therefore,
any armed zone that is breached will immediately generate an
alarm. To Instant arm your system:

Force Arming

Force arming ignores open zones allowing you to arm your system. Once the zone closes, the system will then arm that zone as
well. This feature is useful when a motion detector is protecting the area where your Magellan console is located. During Force
arming, the motion detector will remain unarmed until you exit the area. The system will then arm the motion detector. By default,
your system is programmed with this feature. You can also Force arm your system using your remote control (see page 7).
Please note that Force arming is not permitted in UL installations.

Bypass Programming

You can bypass certain zones when you arm the system. When a
zone is bypassed, it will be ignored the next time you arm the
system. Once the system is disarmed, the system will "unbypass"
the zone. Zones that can be bypassed are defined by your
installer. Fire zones cannot be bypassed. To bypass a zone:
