Chapter Three: Arming And Disarming; Arming The System - Infinite ZI250C User Manual

Arming can be defined as activating the system. When the system is armed, it monitors
the zones that are protected by the sensors. If a sensor detects an intrusion, the system
generates an alarm.
Certain sensors, such as smoke sensors, are always active regardless of system status.

3.1: Arming the System

Three arming modes are available: Full, Part and Perimeter. These modes enable you to
arm your system accordingly to suit different circumstances.
Before arming the system, check that all doors and windows are secured so that the
system is ready for arming.
To arm the system using the keypad:
•
Press one of the three arming keys; the exit delay begins to count down. At the
end of the exit delay, the system is armed.
If the One-key Arming option is disabled in programming, you must enter your user code
when arming the system.
To arm the system using a keyfob:
•
Press the relevant button on your keyfob (see 2.2: Keyfobs); the exit delay
begins to count down. At the end of the exit delay, the system is armed.
Supervised Arm
Supervised Arm is an optional feature designed to supervise intrusion sensor activity
before you arm the system.
If Supervised arm is enabled in programming and the system has not received a
transmission from a sensor for a certain amount of time, all arming methods that include
that sensor shall not be available.
In this case, press
To make the required arming method available, activate the sensor. If activating the sensor
does not help, there may be a problem with the sensor. You can bypass the faulty sensor's
zone to allow system arming until the problem is remedied – see 7.2: Zone
Bypassing/Unbypassing.

Chapter Three: Arming and Disarming

Full Arming
Full arming activates the entire system. This arming method is used
when you intend to leave your home, leaving the premises empty.
Part Arming
This arming method enables you to arm a section of your home while
remaining on a different part of the premises.
Perimeter Arming
Perimeter arming enables you to activate the perimeter zones (the
windows and doors of your home) enabling you to move freely within
the protected area.
