Description
Pressing any key will silence the keypad sounder for 10 seconds.
Disarming the system will silence both keypad and external sounders.
If enabled (field ∗21), you can press [#] in place of the system's
security code, plus the desired arming key (Away, Stay, Instant,
Maximum)
If programmed (*57 Function Key menu mode), lettered keys A-D can
be used for arming, using options 3-AWAY, 4-STAY, 5-NIGHT-STAY,
or 6-Step-Arming
If used, no security code is required to arm the system.
When the system is disarmed, any zones that were in an alarm
condition during the armed period will be displayed. To clear this
display, simply repeat the disarm sequence (enter the security code
and press the OFF key) again.
Enter code + AWAY [2] or simply press appropriate lettered key on
the keypads (see "Single-Button Arming" above). If the "Auto-Stay
Arm" feature is enabled and the entry/exit door is not opened and
closed within the programmed exit delay time, the system will
automatically arm in STAY mode if armed from a wired keypad (non-
RF device). If the door is opened and closed within the exit delay
period, the system arms in AWAY mode.

(see "Single-Button Arming" above). See "Arming Away" above for
Auto-Stay arming feature.
