Turning The System On - Bosch Security System Owner's Manual

Turning the System On

Turning On Multiple Areas with a Passcode
You can use your personal passcode to turn on both perimeter and interior points in all areas
where your passcode has authority. If there are areas already turned on, this function turns on all
areas that are off without changing the status of the areas that are already on.
1. Enter your passcode and press [ENT].
2. The command center displays ARMING 12345678, indicating that all areas are being
turned on. The actual number of areas you may turn on is limited by command center
scope and/or your authority level. For example, if you have authority to arm all 8 areas
but the scope of the command center you're using is limited to areas 1, 2, and 5, then
you will only be able to turn on areas 1, 2, and 5.
3. If a point is faulted (door or window open for example), CHK AREA # displays. Try
one of the following:
• Close doors and/or windows and repeat step 1.
• Bypass the faulted points (if your system and authority level allow) and repeat step
1.
• Force arm the areas with faulted points, if your system and authority level allow.
Remember that points that are force armed are not protected.
4. After arming your system, leave the building through a door programmed with exit
delay time. Your command center emits an intermittent beep tone and counts down the
exit delay in the display.
• If you open a door after exit delay time expires, entry delay time begins. Turn the
system off to avoid an alarm event.
Turning On Multiple Areas with Master Arm All
You can use this Command Menu function to turn on both perimeter and interior points in all
areas where your passcode has authority. If there are areas already turned on, this function turns
on all areas that are off without changing the status of the areas that are already on. This function
works the same as entering your passcode to arm, but allows the Master Arm All feature to be
included in the Command Menu.
1. Press the [ESC]/[MENU] keys to enter the Command Menu.
2. Press the [NEXT] key until the MASTER ARM ? function is displayed.
3. Press [ENT]. The display shows MASTER ARM ALL ?
4. Press [ENT]. The command center displays ARMING 12345678, indicating that all
areas are being turned on. The actual number of areas you may turn on is limited by
command center scope and/or your authority level. For example, if you have authority
to arm all 8 areas but the scope of the command center you're using is limited to areas 1,
2, and 5, then you will only be able to turn on areas 1, 2, and 5.
5. If a point is faulted (door or window open for example), CHK AREA # displays. Try
one of the following:
• Close doors and/or windows and repeat step 1.
