ARM and DISARM Buttons

When your system is disarmed, the ARM button displays on the Security bar. To arm the
system, touch ARM. The ARM button lets you arm your entire system when you are leaving
the house, or only your doors and windows when you are staying home.

Arm Button

When you touch ARM, the Arm options display. Depending on which
Security panel you have and which options are enabled, one or more of the
following options might appear on this screen:
Arm All or Arm Away. Any triggered security-related sensor (including interior motion
detectors and interior doors) results in an alarm and notifies the appropriate authority.
If you select this option but the system does not detect an entry/exit door being opened and
closed afterwards, the Security panel arms doors and windows as described in the following
paragraph.
Arm Doors & Windows or Arm Stay. Only events associated with your exterior doors and
windows trigger an alarm. This mode is useful when someone is at home but wants the
system to be armed. The system ignores interior sensors in this mode.
The Home Security Touchscreen does not currently support the Arm Motions or Arm Night
Stay options that are available on some Security panels. If you set Arm Motions or Arm Night
Stay on the security keypad, the touch screen status indicates that the system is in the Armed
Motions or Armed Night Stay state.
Entry Delay or Entry/Exit Delay. This option is not available on all Security panels. If it is
available and turned on, the security system allows a prescribed amount of time for you to:
Enter the access code after you open the entry door. A keypad displays the number of
•
seconds remaining to enter the access code before the Security panel sounds an alarm.
Open, walk out, and close the door when exiting. A count-down timer displays on the
•
System icon, indicating how much time you have left to exit the premises. At the end of
that time, the system is armed, and if anyone opens a door or window or triggers a motion
sensor, the Security panel sounds an alarm. If this option is available and turned off, there
is no delay. The alarm sounds as soon as the entry/exit door opens.
Note: The only time you should turn off the entry delay is when you are staying
in the house or using a button remote such as a key fob.
Exit Sound or Silent Exit. This option is not available on all Security panels. The exit delay
is the amount of time between the time you send the arm command to the Security panel and
the time the entry/exit door is actually armed. It is the amount of time you are allowed to exit
the premises through the entry/exit door without setting off an alarm.
When this option is off, the Security panel chimes after you send the arm command until
•
the exit delay period is complete.
