The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly mon-
itoring all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It
detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from
disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record
and report any triggers that occurred during your absence.
If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor
triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then
one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass Notification.
NOTE: Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent Mode ™ or if
chirps have been programmed OFF.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when the
system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds later
the system will monitor that input normally. For example, if your
vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system
before the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass
Notification chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors
are monitored normally.
Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard
when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five
