Keypad cheat sheet

• Arm (away)your code

  • Close the doors and windows first: the RDY light must be on (an LCD keypad shows SYSTEM READY).
  • RDY off? On an LED keypad a zone light on steady shows which zone is open; an LCD shows NOT RDY and the zone. Close it, or bypass it.
  • Key in your 4-digit code. The ARM light comes on and an LCD keypad shows ON AWAY.
  • Leave through your entry/exit door before the exit delay runs out.
  • If your installer has turned on quick arming, # then 1 arms without a code. You still need a code to disarm.

• Arm while homeSTAYyour codeorINSTANTSTAYyour code

  • Stay arms the outside doors and windows but leaves the inside zones off, so you can move around inside.
  • When the system is ready (RDY light on), press STAY, then your code.
  • The ARM light comes on. The XL4612RM's RDY light blinks slowly; an XL4800 LED keypad lights STAY; an LCD shows ON: STAY.
  • INSTANT and STAY in either order, then your code, also drops the entry delay. You can't go out through an entry/exit door in this mode.
  • Stay and Instant switch off when you disarm. Disarm before you go out.

• Disarmyour code

  • Key in your code. The ARM light goes out and an LCD keypad shows SYSTEM READY.
  • Your code also resets the system after a false alarm, such as a window opened while armed or smoke setting off the fire alarm.
  • If the alarm went off while you were out, don't go inside until the place has been made safe.

• Bypass a zoneBYPASSyour codezone

  • Each detector or door contact is a zone. A bypassed zone isn't protected while the system is armed.
  • Press BYPASS, key in your code, then the zone number. BYPASS, code, 2 bypasses zone 2.
  • The keypad gives a steady beep. An LED keypad blinks the zone light slowly; an LCD shows BYPASS with the zone number and name.
  • Do the same again to unbypass it. While the system is armed, a zone that is still open stays bypassed.

• Trouble lights

  • The XL4612RM keypad has a light for each zone, plus the ARM, AC/LB and RDY lights.

  • After an alarm or trouble, disarm, then key your code in again to clear the display and silence the keypad.
  • Beeping non-stop after 21 key presses with no valid code? Key in your code to silence it.
