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 detectors. If a detector detects 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.
Full Arming Part Arming Perimeter 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 enables you to
arm a section of your home
while remaining on a different
part of the premises.
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.
If the One-key Arming option is disabled in programming, you must enter your
user code when arming the system from a keypad.
Arming with the Front Panel or Wireless Keypad
To arm the system using the front panel or Wireless Keypad:
x 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.
If the One-key Arming option is disabled in programming, you must
enter your user code when arming the system from a Wireless
Keypad, or place a registered smartkey (if supported) against the
center of the smartkey reader.
