Touchpad options
Table 19 provides touchpad option details.
Fail-to-open
time
Off Determines whether the panel sends a Fail to open report to a central station if the
system has not been disarmed by the programmed time (on), or not (off).
System time must be set correctly for this feature to work.
Fail-to-close
time
Off Determines whether the panel sends a Fail to Close report to a central station if the
system has not been armed by the programmed time (on), or not (off).
System time must be set correctly for this feature to work.
Siren time-out 004 minutes Determines how long sirens sound alarms if no one is present to disarm the system. The
time can be set from 002 to 254 minutes. When this feature is turned off, sirens sound
alarms until the alarm is canceled (system is disarmed).
Arm LED
shutdown
Off Determines whether the panel LEDs (buttons) turn off 30 seconds after the last button
press (on) or remain on for the entire arming period (off).
Unvacated
premises
On Determines whether the system automatically arms down to level 2 (doors and
windows) if the user arms the system to level 4 (doors, windows, and motion sensors)
without leaving the premises (on), or remains at the armed level chosen by the user (off).
This feature does not work from a keyfob. Autobypass must be on for this feature to
work.
Smoke
supervision
Off Determines how often the panel must receive supervisory signals from the smoke
sensors. If this option is on, the panel must receive at least one supervisory signal from
smoke sensors every four hours or it will identify a sensor failure and sound trouble
beeps. If this option is off, the time for receiving supervisory signals is determined by RF
Timeout.

Function Default Description
Keyfob no delay Off Determines whether a keyfob arms the system with no delay (on) or not (off).
When this feature is on, you must disarm the system before entering the premises, since
it is disabling the entry delay. If Remote Touchpad Arming is on, keyfobs cannot disarm
the system and will cause an alarm upon entering.
Panic alarms On Determines whether the panel panic buttons (police, auxiliary, and fire) activate alarms
when pressed (on) or not (off)
Remote TP arm Off Determines whether keyfobs and remote touchpads can disarm the system only during
exit and entry delays (on) or arm and disarm the system anytime (off). If this option and
Keyfob no delay are on, users cannot enter and/or disarm using remote touchpads
without causing an alarm.
