5.16 Intelligent Arm
The PCX system allows the facility where you can automatically initiate a different arm mode or
partition when you activate a chosen input (rather than having to choose a different arm mode via
the keypad). This is known as “Intelligent Arming”.
Please note that when Intelligent Arming has been enabled the exit tone will be at ‘intelligent’
volume. See Change Volume on page 35.
5.16.1 Intelligent Arm for User Level Arming
If you are using Intelligent Arming for ‘level arming’, you can automatically switch to another arm
mode when the nominated input is activated.
For example, if input 3 is selected for Intelligent Arming, then once this input is activated during the
exit time for Arm Mode A, the system will automatically quick arm Arm Mode B.
To select the system for level arming please see the “Use Level Arm’ in Site Options on page: 47.
5.16.2 Intelligent Arm for Partition systems
If you are using Intelligent Arming for a partition system, you can automatically omit partition B from
the system when the nominated input is activated.
For example, if input 3 is selected for Intelligent Arming, then once this input is activated during the
exit time for all Partitions, the system will automatically omit partition B and quick arm the
remaining partitions.
