3. Arming and Disarming

Arming can be defined as activating the system. When the system is armed, it monitors

the zones that are protected by the detector. If a detector senses an intrusion, the system

generates an alarm.

3.1. Arming Modes

Three arming modes are available: Full, Part and Perimeter. These modes enable you to

arm your system accordingly to suit different circumstances.

You can only disarm all the active arming modes.

Full Arming

Full arming activates the

entire system. This arming

method is used when you

intend to leave your home,

leaving the premises

empty.

Part Arming

This arming method

enables you to arm a

section of your home while

remaining on a different

part of the premises.

Perimeter Arming

Perimeter arming enables

you to activate the

perimeter zones (the

windows and doors of your

home) enabling you to

move freely within the

protected area.

Certain detectors, such as smoke, carbon monoxide, gas and flood detectors, are

always active regardless of system status.

3.2. Arming the System

Before arming the system, check that all doors and windows are secured so that the

system is ready for arming.

Arming with the Keypad

To arm the system using the front panel/wireless keypads:

• Press one of the three arming keys, the exit delay begins to count

down. At the end of the exit delay, the system is armed.
