Bypassing Zones

Use the zone bypassing feature when you need access to a protected area while the system is armed,

or when a zone is temporarily out of service, but you need to arm the system. Bypassed zones will

not be able to sound an alarm. Bypassing zones reduces the level of security. If you are bypassing a

zone because it is not working, call a service technician immediately so that the problem can be

resolved and your system returned to proper working order. Ensure that no zones are unintentionally

bypassed when arming your system. Zones cannot be bypassed once the system is armed. Bypassed

zones are automatically cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be bypassed again, if

required, before the next arming.

NOTE: 24 hour zones can only be unbypassed manually.

NOTE: For security reasons, your installer has programmed the system to prevent you from bypass-

ing certain zones (e.g., smoke detectors).
