Preliminary 2/5/02
Quick Exit (Options)
2nd Tier
(Default = on) This setting determines whether or not users can
open and close a standard entry/exit door without causing an
alarm (while the system is armed).
When Quick Exit is on, (while the system is armed) pressing
the Quick Exit button starts a 2-minute timer that allows exit/
entry thru one standard entry/exit door (sensor group 10) to be
activated (opened, then closed) for 2 minutes.
When this feature is turned off, the system must be disarmed if
a protected door is opened.
Note
For UL Listed installations, this feature must be set to off.
To turn quick exit on or off:
Press # to turn on or off.
Auto Stay Arm (Options)
2nd Tier
(Default = on) This setting determines whether or not the
system automatically arms only doors and windows if the user
arms the system without exiting the premises. This can help
prevent accidental alarms by deactivating interior motion
sensors during occupied arming periods.
When this feature is on and the system is armed, the display
counts down the exit delay time. If the exit delay time expires
with no group 10 sensor activation, the system automatically
arms to Level 2, doors and windows.
Note
Arming the system to “Level 3 with No Delay” overrides the
Auto Stay Arming feature.
To turn auto stay arm on or off:
Press # to turn on or off.
Supv Time (Options)
2nd Tier
(Default = random, Parameters = 1:00 am - 5:00 am)
Supervisory Time determines what time of day the panel sends
supervisory, low battery, and auto phone test reports to the
central station.
Note
The panel clock must be set with the correct time for accu-
rate supervisory time reporting. See programming Time
(Time) on page 16.
To set the supervisory time:
Press #, enter desire time, use scroll keys to select am
or pm, and then press #.
Alarm Verify (Options)
2nd Tier
(Default = off) This setting determines whether the panel
reports to the central monitoring station after a single sensor or
zone trip (off) or waits for a second trip before reporting (on).
Note
The first trip of a sensor will be a local alarm (doesn’t call
in), the second trip must be a different sensor within 4 min-
utes of the first trip.
This setting affects sensors/zones in groups 10 through 20. If
Alarm Verify is set to on, group 18 responds the same as
group 17.
Note
For UL Listed installations, Alarm Verify must be set to off.
To turn alarm verify on or off:
Press # to turn on or off.
