Arming Your
System
System
There are two basic methods for arming your security system.
• Away Arming: Use this method when everyone will be away from the premises. See
below.
• Stay Arming: Use this method when one or more people will stay on the premises. See
page 8.
You can also use any of these methods to arm your system (see pages 10 to 11):
• Quick Arming: Arm your system without having to enter an access code. This feature
must be turned on by your installer before it will work.
• “No Entry” Arming: Arm your system with no entry delay - use this method when no
one else will be entering the premises.
• Automatic Arming: The system will arm itself at pre-programmed times. This feature
must be turned on by your installer before it will work.
• No Activity Arming: The system will arm itself after a pre-programmed delay after no
zone activity. This feature must be turned on by your installer before it will work.
Away Arming
When you arm your system using the Away arming method, both interior zones (e.g.,
motion detectors) and border zones (e.g., door and window contacts) will be active and will
cause an alarm to sound when opened.

1. Check that your system is ready to be armed (Ready light is ON).

When you enter a valid access code:
• 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 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. The keypad beeps quickly for the last 10 seconds of the exit delay.
3. Exit the premises through the entry/exit door. Doing this tells the system that you are
away, and the system arms all the interior zones.
At the end of the exit delay, all keypad lights, except the Armed light, turn OFF.
LCD5500Z keypads display “System Armed in Away Mode” and “Enter Code to Disarm
System”. The system is now armed.

NOTE:
If LCD5500Z keypads display: “* WARNING * Bypass Active”, or if the Bypass
indicator is ON at PC55XXZ and LCD5501Z keypads, there are one or more zones
bypassed (i.e., not armed). See “Bypassing Zones” on page 15. If you arm the system
with a zone bypassed or a trouble present, your security protection is reduced.
