Arming & Disarming
Take full advantage of your Magellan system by familiarizing yourself with all the arming methods. If your system is not partitioned (see
Partitioning on page 3), everything is considered as belonging to Partition 1.
If One-Touch Arming is programmed, you can increase the security level of your system (from Disarm
Stay Arm
Sleep Arm
Full Arm)
without a code. See Figure 3 on Page 6.
If you cannot arm because a zone is open, the system will enter in Bypass Programming. Enter the two digit zone to bypass and press [
ENTER
]
, or
press
[
ENTER
]
to bypass all open zones.
Regular Arming
This method will arm all the zones in the selected partition. Please note that Regular arming can also be activated using Auto-Arming (see
page 6) or One-Touch arming (see page 5).
Sleep Arming
Similar to Stay arming, Sleep arming allows users to remain in a protected area, but provides a slightly higher level of protection. For
example, in a two-story house, the perimeter is protected with Stay arming. With Sleep arming, the perimeter as well as the main floor is
protected (motion detectors, etc.), allowing you to roam the second floor and sleeping quarters. Sleep zones are zones that are bypassed
when Sleep arming. For example, when you go to sleep at night, the entire premises except your bedroom is fully armed. Sleep arming
can also be activated using Auto-Arming (see page 6) or One-Touch arming (see page 5).
Stay Arming
This method allows you to roam freely within the premises while the perimeter is fully armed. Stay zones are zones that are bypassed
when Stay arming. For example, if you plan on staying in for the night, doors and windows can be armed without arming other zones like
motion detectors. Stay arming can also be activated using Auto-Arming (see page 6) or One-Touch arming (see page 5).
