status of an individual zone number. The four categories are:
• Armed Zones - zones that are currently armed.
• Bypassed Zones - zones that are currently bypassed.
• Alarmed Zones - zones that have gone into alarm during the
current or previous armed period.
• Number - enter the number of any zone to check its status.

If you are unsure of the zone number or description, refer to
Appendix B at the back of this guide for a diagram showing you
how to use the built-in Zone Status browser.
Bypass Zones
Allows you to bypass a zone prior to arming.
Bypassing is usually done when a zone cannot be restored to
normal. A signicant benet of bypassing a zone is to allow a zone
in a faulted or bad condition to be bypassed so arming can occur.
The faulted zone can be serviced the next day.
A zone can be bypassed only while it is disarmed. Fire, panic,
emergency, and supervisory type zones are always armed, so they
can never be manually bypassed.
Bypass Zones can also be used to reset a zone that has been
bypassed and restore it back into the system.
When Bypass Zones is selected, a report can be transmitted to
your central station.
During arming, when choosing to bypass a zone or device, there
may be a pre-programmed maximum number of zones (up to 8)
that can be bypassed in an area. This limit is programmed at
installation.
Using the Bypass Zones Function
1. Access the User Menu.
2. Press COMMAND until BYPASS ZONES? displays.
3. Press any Select key. The keypad displays
ZONE: - RST BYPS.
4. To Bypass a zone, enter the zone number and select BYPS.
The zone number automatically disappears and a new zone
number can be entered. Refer back to step 3.
5. To Reset a zone, enter the zone number and select RST.
