8. Arming and disarming the system
Important: if the exit delay has expired and you are still inside the building, your movement, for example,
will trigger an alarm if detected by a motion detector.
The entry delay gives you a sucient timeframe to disarm the system aer opening the doors when the
system is armed. The entry delay should also be programmed in consultation with your specialist installation
contractor. Ideally the entry delay should be as short as possible. If you enter your premises through the
doors, you should hear a pulsed tone. As long as this tone sounds you have time to disarm the system. Disarm
the system using your code (or chip key/disarm key).
Important: if the entry delay expires without the system being disarmed, an intruder alarm is triggered.
8.14 Preventing arming of the system
The alarm panel prevents arming in the following circumstances.
Intrusion detectors (apart from the entrance) are open. Once they have been closed the arming
procedure starts.
A panic button or panic transmitter has been triggered.
The system or a component or detector/zone is showing tampering.
If communication or signalling devices have faults, this
would prevent transmission of notications.
A supervision shutdown in a wireless component
The user can override permissible events (shutdowns).
Aer the start, a continuous tone sounds.
Make your way out of the building and open and close the doors in time.
The continuous tone is replaced by a pulsed tone when the door is opened/closed. It will then return to
acontinuous tone.
The system also allows a special type of exit delay. the system is only armed once the doors are closed.
Theexit delay is therefore exible to allow you to take whatever time you need to get out the door. Speak to
your specialist installation contractor if you desire this type of arming.
