Re-activate bypassed zones
To fully arm the system when it has been armed in Stay mode:
1.  Press 
 at any keypad. The interior zones are now armed. 
NOTE:
 When you have re-activated the interior zones, you will not be able to enter 
areas protected by motion detectors, or open doors and windows. To access these 
areas, you must enter your [access code] and disarm the system.
Stay Button
You may also be able to quickly Stay arm your system using the “Stay” function button on 
your keypad. If your installer has programmed this button, press and hold it for two seconds 
to arm in Stay mode. 
Quick Arm
Your installer will tell you if the Quick Arm method has been enabled on your system. Using 
this method, you can quickly arm your system without having to enter an access code.
To quick arm:
1.  Check that the system is ready to be armed (Ready light is ON)
2. Press 
• The keypad sounds fast beeps.
• The Armed light turns ON.
• LCD5500Z keypads display “Exit Delay in Progress”.
• The exit delay begins and the keypad beeps once every second until the end of 
the exit delay. 
3.  Exit the premises through the entry/exit door. The system will be armed in Away mode. If 
you do not exit the premises, the system will be armed in Stay mode. This mode also 
applies to individual partitions.
NOTE:
 Pressing 
 will only arm the system. To disarm, you must enter a valid 
[access code]. See “Disarming Your Security System” on page 11.
NOTE:
 For Away, Stay or Quick Arming, you may restart the exit delay routine if an 
Entry/Exit zone is opened, restored, then reopened once again. This restart routine 
can occur one time only. This can be done on separate partitions.
“No Entry” 
Arming
If you want to arm the system, and no one else will be entering, you can remove the entry 
delay from zones that normally have one. 
An entry through any zone will then create an instant alarm.
1.  Check that your system is ready to be armed (Ready light is ON)
2.  Press 
, then your [access code]. 
• The Armed light flashes as a reminder that the system is armed and has no entry 
delay. 
• The keypad sounds fast beeps.
• LCD5500Z keypads display “Exit Delay in Progress”.
3.  The system is now armed in Stay mode.
