Bypassing Sensors; Alarms - GE Simon XT V2 User Manual

Note: The designated door may be opened and closed only once. If you close the
designated door behind you when you exit, you will need to disarm the system upon
reentering. Leave the designated door open while using the quick exit feature.
Exit delay extension
If enabled by your installer, the exit delay extension feature will recognize when you
arm the system, leave your house and then quickly reenter (for example, if you forget
your car keys). If this happens, the system will restart your exit delay to give you the
full exit delay again.

Bypassing sensors

Bypassing a sensor allows you to open the sensor while the system is armed. For
example, if your doors and windows are armed and you want to open your kitchen
window, but do not want to disarm the entire system, you can bypass the kitchen
window sensor and then open the kitchen window without causing an alarm.
Bypassed sensors are automatically unbypassed when the arming level is changed to
a level where the sensor is not active.
To bypass a sensor:
1. Press Bypass and enter your master code.
2. Scroll until you reach the sensor to be bypassed.
The display shows, for example, SN 1 Front Door on the first line.
3. Press OK to bypass (deactivate) the sensor.
When a sensor is bypassed, the display shows Bypassed on the second line.
Unbypassing
1. Press Bypass and enter your master code.
2. Scroll to the sensor to be unbypassed. (The sensor must be currently bypassed.)
3. Press OK to unbypass (reactivate) the sensor.
The panel removes the word "Bypassed" from the second line of the display.

Alarms

The system provides a series of alarms that indicate an unusual occurrence. When an
alarm is active, the display shows, Alarm Alarm Alarm, Press Status.
To cancel the alarm, enter a valid master or user code. After alarms are canceled, the
system will be disarmed.
