option is enabled, the master code can only be changed in
Installer’s programming.
The Maintenance code can only be used to arm and disarm the
system. The Maintenance code cannot bypass zones, use [*][9]
to arm the system, cancel autoarming, or perform [*][7] com-
mand functions. There will be no arm/disarm bell squawks when
the Maintenance code is used.
General access codes can arm and disarm the system. When the
Code Required for Bypassing option is enabled, users will
need to enter a valid access code in order to bypass zones. Indi-
vidual access codes can have the Zone Bypassing attribute
disabled under Access Code Attribute programming, as
described previously in this section.

4.2 Arming and Disarming
Arming
The system cannot be armed unless the ‘Ready’ light is on. If the
‘Ready’ light is not on, ensure all protected doors and windows
are secure and stop movement in areas covered by motion
detectors.
When the ‘Ready’ light is on, enter a valid access code. As each
digit is pressed the keypad will beep. If an incorrect code is
entered, the keypad will emit a steady 2 second beep to indicate
that the code was not correct. If the code is correct but the ‘Ready’
light was not on, the panel will beep six times rapidly followed by a
long two second beep to indicate the system was not ready.
When the correct code is entered and the system is ready, the
panel beeps six times rapidly, and the ‘Armed’ light turns on. The
panel begins counting down the exit delay. If the Audible Exit
Delay option is enabled, the keypad will beep every second until
the exit delay expires. The keypad will beep rapidly for the last 10
seconds of exit delay to warn the user the system is about to arm.
Exit the premises through the designated entry/exit door before
the exit delay expires.
Users can restart the exit delay while it is counting down by
pressing the Away key. The system will not log the user who re-
started the exit delay, unless the Quick Arming Disabled/Func-
tion Keys Require Code option is turned on (section [015],
option [4]).
NOTE: If the system has been Stay armed, or armed with no entry
delay ([*][9]), pressing the Away key will not start an exit delay.
Other methods of arming are available (See section
“[*] [0]
Quick Arm”
, “[*] [9] Arming without Entry Delay”, and section
4.4 “Function Keys”).
NOTE: The PC5020 has a built-in feature called Audible Exit Fault.
(See Section 5.3 Basic Programming PWS Sect 3 [001]-[004] for
more information.
Stay and Away Arming
When a user arms the system, if any zones on the system have
been programmed as Stay/Away, the panel will immediately turn
on the ‘Bypass’ light. The panel will then monitor all zones pro-
grammed as Delay 1 and Delay 2. If no delay type zone is
violated by the end of the exit delay (e.g. nobody leaves through
the entry/exit door), the panel will bypass all Stay/Away type
zones. The panel is now “Stay” armed. The ‘Bypass’ light will
remain on to inform the home owner that the interior protection
is bypassed. This is a convenience for users that want to arm the
panel while at home. Using this method, users do not have to
bypass the interior zones manually.
Users can add the Stay/Away zones back into the system at any
time by entering [*] [1] (see section [*][1] Zone Bypassing on
page 14), or by using the Away function button.
If a delay zone is violated during the exit delay (e.g. somebody
leaves through the designated entry/exit door), all zones will be
active after the exit delay expires. The panel is now “Away”
armed. The ’Bypass’ light on the keypad will be off.
Other methods of Stay and Away arming are available (see sec-
tion 4.4 Function Keys on page 16).
Using the Away Button While Stay Armed
If a partition is armed in Stay mode and a user wishes to leave
the premises without having to disarm and re-arm the system,
they may press the Away button. The system will begin counting
the standard exit delay, allowing the user to leave without actu-
ally disarming. The panel will log “Armed in Away Mode” upon
completion of the Exit Delay. This feature is useful for users with
Wireless Keys with Stay/Away buttons, and who wish to have
their panel armed at all times.
Using the Stay Button While Away Armed
Pressing the Stay key while a partition is Away armed will begin
the Exit Delay again. The panel will log “Armed in Stay Mode”.
This feature is useful for users with Wireless Keys with Stay/Away
buttons, and who wish to have their panel armed at all times.
NOTE: If Function Keys require the entering of an access code, a
valid access code must be entered to toggle between arming
modes. The access code used to perform this function will be
logged with “User Log User XX”. Swinger Shutdown will be reset if
the Stay or Away buttons are pressed while the system is armed.
Disarming
To disarm the panel, enter the premises through the designated
entry/exit door. The keypad will emit a steady beep to warn that
you must disarm the system. During the last 10 seconds of entry
delay the panel will pulse the keypad beeper on and off rapidly
to warn the entry delay is about to expire.
Enter a valid Access Code at the keypad. If an error is made, re-
enter the code correctly. When a correct code is entered the key-
pad will turn off the ‘Armed’ light and stop the keypad buzzer.
If an alarm occurred while the panel was armed the ‘Memory’
light and the zones which caused the alarm will be flashing.
Press the [#] key to return the keypad to the Ready state.
Event Buffer
The panel will store the last 256 events that have occurred on
the system. Each event will contain the time, date, partition and
the event itself along with the zone number, access code num-
ber or any other information pertaining to the event.
If the Event Buffer Follows Swinger Shutdown feature is
enabled the event buffer will not store events after the swinger
shutdown level has been reached. This will prevent the panel
from overwriting the entire buffer if a problem exists (See Sec-
tion 5.3 Basic Programming PWS Sect 3 [377]. The event
buffer can be viewed three different ways. It can be viewed
through an LCD keypad, printed on-site using the PC5400
printer module or it can be uploaded through the DLS software.
Viewing the Event Buffer
The following is the procedure for viewing the event buffer
through the LCD keypad:
Step 1 - Enter [*] [6] [Master Code]
