Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay.
([LW'HOD\
Exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting
off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in any arming
mode and Alpha Display keypads display the message "You May Exit Now." When
"You may exit now" disappears, the system is fully armed. If programmed, a slow
beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last 10 seconds, which then
changes to fast beeping (alerting you to the end of exit delay). If you cannot leave by
this time, you should stop, disarm the system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.
Exit Delay Restart. If you wish to open the entry/exit door to let someone in after
arming STAY, you can re-start the exit delay at any time – simply press the [✱]
key, then let that person in. The system automatically re-arms when exit delay
expires, which avoids having to disarm the system and then re-arm it again. In
addition, when the system is armed AWAY, reopening and closing the entry/exit door
before exit delay time expires (e.g., reentering to get a forgotten item) will reset the
exit delay time.
(QWU\'HOD\
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the
designated entrance door. You must disarm the system (simply enter your security
code) before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps
during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. There are two
entry delays (if programmed). The first is for your primary entrance and the second
can be used for a secondary entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the
keypad to disarm the system.
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the INSTANT or
MAXIMUM arming mode. This mode provides greater security while on the
premises or while away for extended periods of time.
See your installer for your delay times.
