Arming While a Door or Window is Open

It is possible to arm your system while leaving a door or window open. This is useful if, for
example, you like to sleep at night with the window open.
If the door or window has a sensor installed on it, the system must be told to ignore or bypass that
sensor when it's open. All other sensors will remain active.
There are two methods for bypassing a sensor:
Direct — After arming the system, bypass door/window sensors before you open them. You
must know the sensor name or number of the door or window you wish to bypass.
Indirect — As you are arming, bypass sensors on already-open doors and windows. This
method should not be used in UL Listed installations.
Direct Bypass
Only the primary access code can be used to bypass/unbypass sensors directly. Only sensors that
are active in the current arming level can be bypassed. Attempting to bypass a sensor that is
already bypassed, will activate or unbypass the sensor.
Refer to Table B5: Sensor Information, on page 19 to determine what the sensor number is for
the sensor you wish to bypass.

1. Close all doors and windows.
