Basic Arming Modes

Stay • Security code + [3] (STAY)

• Causes: three beeps, armed STAY displayed, ARMED indicator lights

• Arms perimeter sensors, but interior sensors are left disarmed.

• Use when you want to arm the system with persons staying inside (or if you have pets that are moving

throughout the premises).

• Alarm sounds if any protected window or non-entry/exit door is opened.

• Persons entering later can enter through an entry/exit door, but they must disarm the system within the

entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm.

Night-Stay • Security code + [3] + [3]

(Internal) • Causes: three beeps, NIGHT-STAY displayed, ARMED indicator lights

• Same as Stay mode, plus pre-selected interior sensors, while other interior sensors are left disarmed.

• Use Night-Stay (internal) mode to provide increased security while staying inside.

• Persons entering later can use an entry/exit door but they must disarm the system and must not violate

any of the programmed interior zones to avoid sounding an alarm.

• IMPORTANT: When Night-Stay mode is on, the selected interior zones are armed and cause an alarm if

anyone enters those areas (e.g., waking in the middle of the night). To avoid sounding an alarm, you

must disarm the system before any activity takes place in those zones.

Instant • Security code + [7] (INSTANT)

• Causes: three beeps, armed INSTANT displayed, ARMED indicator lights

• Arms same as Stay mode but with entry delay off.

• Use when staying inside and do not expect anyone to use an entry/exit door.

• An alarm sounds immediately if any protected perimeter window or any door is opened, including

entry/exit doors.

• IMPORTANT: Arming in this mode greatly increases the chance of false alarms. Use extreme care in

selecting this mode of arming.

Away • Security code + [2] (AWAY)

• Causes: beeping during exit delay, armed AWAY displayed, ARMED indicator lights

• Arms entire system (interior and perimeter).

• Use when nobody will be staying inside (including pets).

• An alarm sounds if a protected window or any door is opened, or if any movement is detected inside your

premises.

• When reentering through an entry/exit door, you must disarm the system within the entry delay period to

avoid sounding an alarm.

Maximum • Security code + [4] (MAXIMUM)

• Causes: same as Away mode; arms same as Away mode, but entry delay is off.

• Use when arming/disarming is being done from the outside (e.g. RF keyfob)

Step Arming • Press designated key A, B, C, or D, if programmed, once, twice or three times depending on the

arming mode desired. Each key press increases the level of security.

Quick Arm • Press [#] + arming command key, if programmed.
