Partially Arm the Perimeter
COMMAND 8 is used to arm the perimeter of your building while the
selected portions of the perimeter remain disarmed. Perimeter zones that
are not secure (faulted) when COMMAND 8 is entered, are automatically
bypassed and are not included in the system. COMMAND 8 does not arm
the interior of your building. Exit delays are provided with this arming
command. Although this command does not send a "Closing Report" to the
Central Station, it will still send alarms.
NOTE: Bypassed zones (not armed with the system) cannot be armed
again until the system has been disarmed, the zones returned to normal, and
the system is armed again. Bypassing a zone will compromise your
protection. Enter your personal passcode, plus ENT , to cancel.
Application
Use this command in residential systems to arm the front of your house
while the interior and the rear perimeter doors are left unarmed. This gives
you freedom of movement between the house and patio.
To arm with COMMAND 8:
1. Before arming with COMMAND 8, decide which zones are to be left
disarmed. Fault the zones by leaving a door or window open. The
zone(s) must remain open until after the exit delay time expires.
2. Press the COMMAND bar. The Command Mode indicator light
comes on.
3. Press the 8 key. The PERIMETER indicator light begins to
flash. This indicates that the system has begun exit delay time. When
the exit delay has expired, the PERIMETER indicator is continuously
lit.
4. When performing a COMMAND 8, and no zones are faulted, or the
zones return to normal before the exit delay time expires, the system is
armed as in COMMAND 3.
5. To disarm your security system or cancel COMMAND 8, enter your
personal passcode and press ENT .
