At the selected Auto-Arm time, the bell will sound one short burst every 10 seconds for a 1-minute period if
Section [10] Zone Light 7 is OFF. The keypad will also sound for 1 minute. At the end of the 1-minute warning
period, the system will be fully armed and there will be no exit delay at this time.
Auto-Arming may be cancelled by pressing any key on the keypad during the 1-minute warning period. When a
key is pressed, the warning will be silenced and Auto-Arming will be cancelled. Auto-Arming will be attempted at
the same time the next day. During the 1-minute warning period, keyswitch arming or arming using the Quick-
Arm command will cancel the Auto-Arm process and will initiate the exit delay before arming the system.
If Programming Section [9] Zone Light 4 is ON, then an Access Code will be required to cancel Auto-Arming.
When an Access Code is entered during the 1-minute warning period, the warning will be silenced and Auto-
