IMPORTANT
If the Gateway is beeping rapidly when you enter the premises, an alarm has
occurred and an intruder may still be nearby.
LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a safe location.
Security Menu Overview
NOTES: • For the Gateway to report alarms over the internet, your Wi-Fi network MUST have
power at all times.
• You must arm your security system in order for it to sound alarms.
The MyHome Gateway App displays the system arming status, top and center of the screen:
Ready to Arm = the system is ready to be armed.
Not Ready To Arm-Fault = one or more zones are faulted. The system cannot be armed until
all zone faults are fixed or bypassed.
Armed [Home, Away, Custom, etc.] = the system is armed, and arming mode description.
Arming the System
Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows, and other protection zones should be
closed or bypassed (see
Bypassing Protection Zones).
To change the volume of countdown sounds and security status voice announcements, see
System Settings.
