Arming the System with No Delay
Use NO DELAY with STAY mode when you are staying home and do not expect anyone to use the
entrance door.
Use NO DELAY with AWAY mode when the premises will be vacant for extended periods of time such
as vacations, etc.
When armed with NO DELAY, the keypad beeps twice, or beeps continuously if exit warning has been
programmed for your system, and displays the “Armed Stay Instant” or “Armed Away Instant”
message. The red ARMED indicator lights and the system announces “Armed STAY Instant –exit now”
or “Armed AWAY Instant –exit now”.
When armed with NO DELAY, the system will sound an alarm if a protected door or window is opened,
including the entrance door. You may leave through the entrance door during the exit delay period
without causing an alarm, but an alarm will sound as soon as someone reenters.
To arm with NO DELAY:

system. Instead, simply press and hold down the desired arming key for at least 2 seconds. The
security code must always be used to disarm the system, however.

or

IMPORTANT: The Babysitter Code and Installer Code cannot disarm the system unless it was used to
arm the system. In addition, if the system is armed by pressing and holding the Quick-Arm buttons,
neither the Babysitter Code nor Installer Code can disarm the system.
