Ask your installer how this option is programmed and have them explain how it will
affect your system operation.
Exit/entry delay
Your Simon XTi provides a delay after entering or exiting your home before the
system is armed or disarmed. Table 6 below provides details for the entry and exit
delay features.
Table 6: Entry and exit delay details
Function Description
Entry delay Some active sensors cause immediate alarms when tripped. Other
sensors, if enrolled in a delayed response group, start an entry delay
that lets you enter the premises and disarm the system. When you
enter your home, you will hear beeps during the entry delay (see “Status
beeps” on page 17). If the system has not been disarmed by the end of
the entry delay, an alarm occurs.
The entry delay time is programmed by the installer.
No delay If the system was armed with the no delay feature activated, there will
be no entry delay and the alarm will occur immediately.
Exit delay The exit delay is the amount of time the system gives you to exit the
home before the system is armed. During the delay, you can vacate the
premises through a delayed response door without causing an alarm.
Beeps will sound during the exit delay (see “Status beeps” on page 17).
Th
e exit delay time is programmed by the installer.
Protest during arming The system may protest an arming level change if certain abnormal
conditions exist. If a sensor that is active in the requested arming level
is open, the system sounds protest beeps and automatically bypasses
the open sensor (depending on the system configuration).
Silent exit
The silent exit feature silences the status beeps that accompany the exit delay. Press
ON next to Silent exit (Figure 3 on page 8) before pressing the arming level icon to
silence status beeps. The panel will still beep at the beginning and end of the exit
delay.
Note: Enabling silent exit doubles the exit delay time.
No entry delay
Use the no entry delay feature when you are staying at home, or when you are away
from home and will carry a wireless keyfob to disarm the system before opening a
protected door. Check with your installer to find out how this option is programmed.
