Arming Beeps and Flashes 

The SIA standard requires that the control panel provide a means 
to annunciate a change in arming state made from a Keyswitch. 
The Alarm Bell output pulses on twice when a user disarms with a 
remote device. The Alarm Bell output pulses on once when a user 
arms with a remote device 

The SIA standard requires an Alarm Abort feature. The control 
panel uses this feature to give end users an opportunity to 
acknowledge an alarm event and abort the alarm transmission. 
The following sections explain how this feature works. 

The Abort Window is the time the end user has to acknowledge an 
alarm and effectively “abort” the control panel’s alarm response. 

The Abort Window is programmable. 

•

 

The minimum duration is 15 sec. 

•

 

The maximum duration is 45 sec. 

•

 

The default is 30 sec. 

 

 

In accordance with UL standards, the SIA standard intends 
that the combined Entry Time and Abort Window will not be 
programmed to exceed one minute. 

When the control panel is sounding an alarm, enter [passcode] + 
[ESC] to silence the alarm without disarming. Entering the first 
digit of the passcode temporarily silences the alarm at the keypad. 
If a valid passcode is not entered, the alarm begins sounding again 
after a period of about 10 sec with no keypad activity.
