SENSOR BYPASSING
Before the system can be armed, all protected doors
and windows must be closed or bypassed. You can
bypass open sensors on protected doors or windows
before arming the system. When a sensor is bypassed,
the system ignores that the door or window is open. Two
types of sensor bypasses are available:
● Forced
● Manual
In some cases (such as when using the security system
for protection when staying at home), it may be desirable
to leave some sensor-protected doors or windows open.
Temporarily bypassing a sensor for this situation is called
Force Bypassing.
NOTE: Force bypasses are automatically removed when
the system is disarmed.
Sensor bypassing is also sometimes used when a sensor
requires service. A sensor's magnet may be missing, or
an external switch contact connected to a sensor may be
faulty. This causes the sensor to report as open to the
Control Panel.
In these conditions, you may need to schedule a service
call with your qualified alarm service technician to repair or
replace the troubled sensor. If the security system needs
to be armed before the sensor can be serviced, the sensor
can be manually bypassed so the rest of the system can
be armed. Depending on programming, manual bypasses
can remain in place until they are manually removed.
NOTE: Bypassed Sensors offer no protection and cannot
cause an alarm. Use Bypass if you want to arm your
system with one or more sensors open and intentionally
unprotected.

Force Bypass All Sensors

If any sensors are open when the system is disarmed,
the Arm button on the panel turns YELLOW. When you
tap the Arm button, the system automatically reveals
the Bypass screen which lets you arm the system while
forcing it to bypass all open sensors.
To force bypass all open sensors:
1 Ensure a sensor is open, such as a door or window.
2 At the Security or Menu screen, tap the YELLOW Arm
button.
3 At the Bypass screen, tap Bypass All. This forces the
system to bypass all of the open sensors in the list,
including any open interior sensors.
4 At the Enter Code screen, enter a valid user code to
bypass the sensor.
NOTE: The Quick Bypass feature can also be
configured by the installer. For details, refer to the
Control Panel's Installation & Programming Guide.
5 At the Ready to Arm (Sensors Bypassed) screen, tap
Stay or Away.
Later, when you disarm the system, the bypassed sensors
are returned to their normal state.

Bypassing/Un-Bypassing Sensors

To add or remove sensors on the system's bypass list:
1 At the Home screen, tap Menu.
2 At the Menu screen, tap Toolbox.
3 Enter a valid user code to gain access to the Toolbox.
4 At the Toolbox (1 of 3) screen, tap Bypassed
Sensors.
5 At the Bypassed Sensors screen, choose one of
these options:
● Adding a sensor to the bypassed list. Tap the
BLUE button that corresponds to the desired
sensor. When the button turns YELLOW, the
system will bypass the sensor.
● Viewing Only Bypassed Sensors. Place a
check-mark in the Show Bypassed Only box.
● Removing a sensor from the bypassed list.
Tap the YELLOW button that corresponds to the
desired sensor. The button turns BLUE when it is
no longer on the bypassed list.
6 When finished, tap Back.
