Interlogix Simon XTi Quick Start - Manual (Page 4)

With this option on, if a single smoke detector goes into alarm, the
panel will not report for 60 seconds unless another smoke
detector goes into alarm. If the first smoke detector is cleared of
an alarm within the first 60 seconds, no report will be sent to the
central station unless it or a second smoke detector goes into
alarm within the panel siren timeout period (5 minutes).
Ask your installer how this option is programmed.
Arming and disarming
Use the steps below to arm and disarm your system:
To disarm:
1. Press PRESS TO DISARM.
2. Enter your code when the keypad screen appears. If you
enter an incorrect code, press the Clear icon and enter the
correct code.
Note: You have four seconds between number presses to
enter the code or you will be returned to the home screen.
To arm Doors and Windows Only, Motion Sensors Only,
or Arm All:
1. Press PRESS TO ARM.
2. Press DOORS & WINDOWS ONLY, MOTION SENSORS
ONLY, or ARM ALL.
3. If a code is required, enter your code when the keypad
screen appears.
The panel starts an exit delay and sounds exit beeps until the
exit delay expires (see Table 4 on page 5).
Unvacated premises
Unvacated premises is a feature that determines whether the
system automatically arms down to level 2 (doors and windows)
if you arm the system to level 4 (doors, windows, and motion
sensors) without opening or closing a perimeter door (on), or
remains at the armed level chosen (off). This feature does not
work from a key fob. Autobypass must be on for this feature to
work. Check with your installer to see how these options are
programmed for your system.
Swinger Shutdown
This setting determines if a sensor or zone will go into alarm only
once during an arming period (an active arming level) and will not
be active again until the alarm is canceled (Swinger Shutdown is
enabled) or the sensor or zone will always be active and will go
into alarm multiple times during an arming period (an active
arming level) without canceling the alarm (Swinger Shutdown is
disabled).
Note : Swinger Shutdown does not affect Smoke, Fire, Carbon
Monoxide and Environmental sensors.
Ask your installer how this option is programmed and have them
explain how it will affect your system operation.
Exit/entry delay
Your Simon XTi provides a delay after entering or exiting your
home before the system is armed or disarmed.
Exit delay extension
If enabled by your installer, the exit delay extension feature will
recognize when you arm the system, leave your house and then
quickly reenter (for example, if you forget your car keys). If this
happens, the system will restart your exit delay to give you the full
exit delay again.
Ask your installer how this option is programmed.
Alarms
The system provides annunciation to indicate an alarm condition.
When an alarm is active, the home screen will display the alarm
status (see Table 1 on page 1).
To cancel the alarm
• If you would like to hear additional alarm information, press
Listen.
• To cancel the alarm, press the red alarm icon and enter a
valid master or user code.
After alarms are canceled, the system will be disarmed.
System status
In the Status & Settings screen, press Listen (no code is required)
to cause the system to speak the following types of information:
• Alarm conditions
• Alarm history
• Trouble conditions
• Open sensors
• Bypassed sensors
The and icons appear when abnormal conditions such
as a trouble or open sensor exists in the system.
You can clear certain status entries from the system (such as old
alarm history) by listening to the message or by pressing Clear
next to Panel Status in the Status & Settings screen.
