Zone Bypassing

The zone bypassing function is used when access is needed to part of the protected area while the system is armed. Zones that are temporarily out of service due to damaged wiring or contacts may be bypassed to allow system arming until repairs can be made.

Bypassed zones will not cause an alarm. Zones cannot be bypassed once the system is armed.

Bypassed zones are automatically cancelled each time the system is disarmed and must be reapplied before the next arming.

Bypassing zones reduces your security protection. If you are bypassing a zone due to damaged wiring or contacts, please call a service technician immediately so that the problem can be resolved and your system returned to proper working order.

Make sure that no zones are unintentionally bypassed when arming your system.

To bypass zones from an LED/LCD keypad:

Start with the system in the Ready state. Enter [*][1][Zone(s) to be bypassed].

Enter the zone(s) as a 2-digit number from 01 to 32. As each zone is bypassed, the corresponding zone light will turn ON. If a zone is bypassed by mistake, enter that zone number again; the zone light will turn OFF, indicating that the zone is not bypassed. Press [#] to return to the Ready state.

EXAMPLE: *,1,(00 to 32),# or
