Appendix A: General Concepts of the Security System
Arming and Exiting a Premises
The Exit Delay period is the amount of time that starts when the security system is armed. The customer
has this period of time to exit through an Entry/Exit sensor doorway. If the customer does not exit during
this period, the system cannot be armed in Arm Away state. Instead, the system arms in Arm Stay state.
has this period of time to exit through an Entry/Exit sensor doorway. If the customer does not exit during
this period, the system cannot be armed in Arm Away state. Instead, the system arms in Arm Stay state.
There is an audible beeping during the Exit Delay (once per second) that speeds up during the last 10
seconds of the Exit Delay (twice per second). The system audibly beeps once per second announcing that
the system is in the Exit Delay period. During the last 10 seconds of the Exit Delay state, the system beeps
twice per second. If an Entry/Exit zone is faulted, restored and then faulted again prior to the end of the
exit delay then the Exit Delay is restarted. This only occurs once. If an Entry/Exit door is left open at the
end of Exit Delay, the Entry Delay immediately starts and, if the system is not disarmed, an alarm sounds.
If no Entry/Exit zone opens and closes during the Exit Delay, the arming mode reverts to Armed Stay.

When the system arms, the TouchScreen beeps three times. If the system is armed from the key fob, the
peripheral’s LED flashes red once and the holds red for two seconds. Using the key fob, the system can
be armed in Arm Away mode and Arm Stay mode. There is still an Exit Delay period that works the same
way as when the system is disarmed from the TouchScreen.

If an alarm is tripped within two (2) minutes after the expiration of the Exit Delay period, a Recent Closing
transmission is sent to the central monitoring station along with the keypad code used to arm the
system.

IMPORTANT:
A Recent Closing transmission is not for alarms tripped by a smoke detector.
Disarming and Entering a Premises
The Entry Delay period is the amount of time from an Entry/Exit sensor being faulted until an alarm
sounds. The customer has until the end of the Entry Delay period to enter a valid keypad code. There is
no Entry Delay period for Perimeter type sensors (such as window sensors or non-entry door sensors).
The TouchScreen audibly beeps once per second announcing that the system is in the Entry Delay state.
During the last 10 seconds of the Entry Delay state, the system beeps twice per second. When the
system is disarmed from the TouchScreen, it beeps once. If it is disarmed from a key pad, the
peripheral’s LED flashes green once and then holds green for two seconds.

The Alarm Transmission Delay period (also called the Abort Window) is the length of time after an alarm
sounds for the customer to enter a valid keypad code. This period starts when the customer fails to enter
his keypad code during the Entry Delay period. The central monitoring station is not contacted until after
the Alarm Transmission Delay period. This helps prevent false alarms. During an alarm, the system can be
disarmed by entering a valid keypad code in the TouchScreen or a key pad peripheral. As soon as the
customer enters a single digit in the keypad screen or on the key pad peripheral, the TouchScreen alarm
is temporarily silenced. If the user enters an invalid keypad code, the alarm starts again. If the alarm
system is disarmed with a keypad code within the Alarm Transmission Delay period, no alarm
transmission occurs.
