Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming
and disarming a partition. A red and green light on the keyswitch
plate indicate the status of your system as follows:
Green Light: Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to
be armed (no open zones). If the system is disarmed
and the green light is off, it indicates the system is
not ready (one or more zones are open).
Red Light: Lights when system is armed or memory of alarm
exists.
Lit Steady: Partition is armed in AWAY mode.
Slow Flashing: Partition is armed in STAY mode.
Rapid Flashing: Memory of alarm, indicating an alarm has occurred.
To arm in the AWAY mode, turn
the key to the right for 1/2 second
and release. Keypads will beep twice
and the red light will stay on steady.
To arm in the STAY mode, turn
the key to the right and hold for
longer than 10
release. Keypads will beep three
times and the red light will flash
slowly.
