4 Securing the Premises
The PowerSeries Neo provides multiple arming modes as described below:
Depending on your system configuration, there are multiple methods you can use to arm your system.
You can arm the system using a:
• Keypad (see 4.1 “Arming the System with the Keypad”).
• 2-way wireless key (see 4.2 “Arming the system with a 2-way wireless key”).
• Proximity tag (see 4.3 “Arming the system with a Proximity tag”).
4.1 Arming the System with the Keypad
4.1.1 Away Arming the System with the Keypad
Away mode activates the complete alarm system by:
• Arming all perimeter sensors.
• Arming all interior sensors.
Away mode
Use when no one in your household will be home. Away mode activates all perimeter and
interior sensors in the alarm system.
Stay mode
Use this mode when you are staying home, but expect someone to use the entrance door
later. Stay mode partially activates your alarm system by arming all perimeter sensors and
bypassing all interior sensors.
Night mode
Use when you want the perimeter and interior armed but would like to allow limited
movement in your house without activating the alarm. e.g., disable motion sensors in an
area containing bedrooms and a washroom. Night mode is similar to Stay mode but only
bypasses internal sensors configured as Night Zones.
NOTES: Verify with your alarm company which modes are available on your system.
For SIA FAR listed panels, the Stay Arming Exit Delay will be twice as long as the Away
Arming Exit Delay.
