Turning the System On (Arming)
Your security system can be turned on (armed) in many different ways,
depending on the arming command used. Arming commands are those
commands used to turn the system on. The most basic arming command
is to arm the entire system. The simplest way to arm your system is to
enter your personal passcode and press ENT or to use COMMAND 1.
There are several other arming commands to turn the system on. For
example: arm only the perimeter, arm only portions of the perimeter, etc.
These arming functions and their respective commands are described
later in this guide.
Turning the System Off (Disarming)
Your security system is turned off by entering your personal passcode
and pressing ENT. When your system is turned on, you must enter the
premises through a designated entry door to prevent an immediate
instant alarm condition. Opening the door starts an entry delay time and
the Command Center emits a pulsing “beep” tone to remind you to turn
the system off. Enter your personal passcode and press ENT before the
delay time expires and the system will turn off.
If you enter through a wrong door or fail to disarm before the entry delay
expires, you will cause an alarm. If this happens, silence the alarm (by
entering your personal passcode and pressing ENT) and call your
security company to let them know that it is not an emergency situation.
