Auto Stay Arming (Security—Partition 1-2)
(partition 1: 0014, partition 2: 0024)
(Default = on) This setting determines whether or not the system automatically arms to STAY
(level 2) if the user arms the system to AWAY (level 3) without exiting the premises. This can
help prevent accidental alarms by deactivating interior motion sensors during occupied arming
periods.
Note
Arming the system to
“AWAY with No Delay” over-
rides the Auto Stay Arming
feature.
When this feature is on and the system is armed to AWAY, touchpads (and other status sounders)
emit one exit delay beep every four seconds, then one every second during the last 10 seconds. If
the exit delay time expires with no standard delay sensor activation, the system automatically
arms to STAY.

To turn Auto Stay Arming off or on:
With the display showing AUTO STAY ARMING OFF/ON (current setting), press 1 (off) or 2
(on). The display flashes the entered setting. Press # and the display shows the new setting.
Keyswitch Sensor (Security—Partition 1-2)
(partition 1: 0015, partition 2: 0025)
(Default= none) This feature lets users arm and disarm the system using either a keyswitch wired
to a hardwire zone input or a wireless door/window sensor.
Note
It is recommended that key-
switch sensors are learned
into group 28.
For example, if sensor 1 is designated as the keyswitch sensor and the system is disarmed, then
tripping sensor 1 could arm the system to AWAY. If the system is armed to STAY or AWAY, then
tripping the sensor could disarm the system (depending on keyswitch style).
The panel reports opening, closing, and force armed reports (if turned on) to the central monitor-
ing station.
Note
A bypassed keyswitch sen-
sor cannot arm or disarm the
system.
During an audible alarm,
keyswitch sensors can dis-
arm the system (which
sends a cancel report to the
central monitoring station),
but cannot arm the system.
The system can be armed
only after the siren timeout
expires.
Keyswitch sensors test the
same as any other sensor
and do not arm or disarm the
system during a sensor test.
¾To assign a Keyswitch Sensor:
With the display showing KEYSWITCH SENSOR nn (current sensor number), enter the desired
sensor number (01–76). The display flashes the entered sensor number. Press # and the dis-
play shows the new number.

To delete a Keyswitch Sensor:
With the display showing KEYSWITCH SENSOR nn (current sensor number), press D to erase
the keyswitch sensor attribute.
Keyswitch Style (Security—Partition 1-2)
(partition 1: 0016, partition 2: 0026)
(Default = transition) This feature allows users to select how they want the system to behave
when armed/disarmed by a keyswitch sensor. The choices are as follows:
Transition: If keyswitch style is set to transition and the keyswitch sensor is tripped (opened)
when the system is disarmed (level 1), the panel will automatically arm to AWAY (level 3). If the
sensor is tripped (opened) when the system is armed to AWAY (level 3) or STAY (level 2), the
panel will automatically disarm.
State: If keyswitch style is set to state, when the keyswitch sensor is tripped (opened) the panel
arms to AWAY (level 3). If the sensor is restored (closed) the panel disarms.
Opening, closing, and force arming reports (if turned on) are reported to the central station for
both keyswitch styles.

To assign a Keyswitch Style:
With the display showing KEYSWITCH STYLE TRANSITION/STATE (current setting), press 1 for
Transition or 2 for State. The display flashes the entered setting. Press # and the display
shows the new setting.
Duress Code (Security—Partition 1-2)
(partition 1: 0017, partition 2: 0027)
(Default = none) The duress code is a unique 4-digit access code that allows users to operate the
system and, at the same time, instructs the panel to send a silent alarm report to the central sta-
tion.
Do not use a duress code unless it is absolutely necessary. Using duress codes often results in
false alarms due to code entry errors. If a duress code is absolutely necessary, use it with an audio
verification module (AVM) to reduce false alarms and accidental dispatches.
