IMPORTANT!  
• Match the numerical callouts in the above graphic with the corresponding number on the 
following pages for a description of usage. 
 When entering codes and commands, sequential key depressions must be made within 4-5 
seconds of one another. If 4-5 seconds elapse without a key depression, the entry will be 
aborted and must be repeated from its beginning. Be sure to observe this precaution when 
performing any of the procedures in this manual. 
 If you make a mistake while entering a security code, stop, press the [✱] key, and then 
start over. If you stop in the middle while entering a code, and then immediately start 
the entry over, an erroneous code might be entered.

Entry/Exit Delays 
Entry Delay 
Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the 
designated entrance door. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The first is for 
your primary entrance and the second can be used for a secondary entrance, where a 
longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system. 
 
You must disarm the system before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will 
occur. The keypad beeps during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the 
system. The beeps stop when a code is entered, but will restart after about 15 seconds 
if an invalid code is entered. 
 
You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using the INSTANT or 
MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the 
premises or while away for extended periods of time.  
 
See your installer for your delay times.  Partition 1  ___________________________________________________________________________   
Exit Delay:

    Entry Delay 2:

NOTE: Entry/Exit times set for partition 1 also apply to the Common Zone.  Partition 2  ___________________________________________________________________________   
Exit Delay:  
       seconds  Entry Delay 1:       seconds 
       Entry Delay 2: 
      seconds 
Exit Delay 
Exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door(s) without 
setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after arming your system in 
any arming mode and Alpha Display keypads display the message “You May Exit 
Now.” When “You may exit now” disappears, the system is fully armed. If 
programmed, a slow beeping will sound during the exit delay period until the last 
10 seconds, which then changes to fast beeping (alerting you to the end of exit 
delay). If you cannot leave within this delay time period, you should stop, disarm 
the system, and start over to avoid a false alarm.  
Exit Delay Restart (if programmed): If you wish to open the entry/exit door to let 
someone in after arming STAY (the perimeter zones remain armed), you can restart 
the exit delay at any time – simply press the [✱] key, then let that person in. The 
system automatically rearms the entry/exit door when the exit delay expires, which 
avoids having to disarm the system and then rearm it again.  
Additionally, when the system is armed AWAY, reopening and closing the 
entry/exit door before exit delay time expires (e.g., re-entering to get a forgotten 
item), will reset the exit delay time once.

Entry/Exit Delays (cont’d) 
 
Exit Alarms  
Exit Error Conditions 
Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior 
zone is faulted before exit delay expires and remains faulted (e.g., exit door left open), 
the system sounds an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the 
system before the entry delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message ALARM 
CANCELED  or CA is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number 
indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.   
 
To clear the exit error condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the 
display, enter your code plus OFF. 
 
If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends and the faulted zone 
remains open, the alarm sound continues and an exit alarm message is sent to the 
Central Monitoring Station (after the installer-programmed dial delay expires). The 
message EXIT ALARM or EA is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone 
number indicating the faulted zone. To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed 
(your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a second time. 
 
An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two 
minutes after the end of the exit delay. 
 Your system may have been programmed for this feature to minimize false alarms sent to the Central Monitoring 
Station. Ask your installer if Exit Alarm is active in your system. If so, check this box.  
       
 
VISTA-21iPSIA: The Exit Error condition works the same as described above, except that in 
addition to the “EXIT ALARM” message, a “zone alarm” message is also sent to the Central 
Monitoring Station. In addition, if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two 
minutes after the end of the exit delay, a “Recent Closing” condition occurs instead of the “exit 
alarm.” Refer to the next paragraph for details.  “Recent Closing” Condition (VISTA-21iPSIA) 
A Recent Closing condition is similar to the Exit Error condition described above, but occurs if 
an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two minutes after the initial exit delay 
expires. If you disarm the system within the two minutes, the alarm sound stops and the 
message ALARM CANCELED  or CA is displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number 
indicating the faulted zone. No message is sent to the Central Monitoring Station.  If you do not disarm the system within two minutes and the faulted zone remains open, the 
alarm sound continues and a “recent closing” and a “zone alarm” message are sent to the 
Central Monitoring Station (after the installer-programmed dial delay expires). The alarm 
message along with a faulted zone number  is displayed on the keypad. To stop the alarm, the 
system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the display, enter your code plus OFF a 
second time.

Before arming your system, all protected doors, windows and other protection zones 
must be closed or bypassed; otherwise the keypad will display a Not Ready 
message.  
 
Use the READY key to display all faulted zones, making it easier for you to identify 
and secure any open zone. 
 
1. Press [✱] (do not enter code first) to display faulted 
zones. 
2.  Secure or bypass the zones displayed. 
 The keypad’s READY indicator lights when all 
protection zones have been either closed or bypassed. 
3.  Arm the system as desired.

Arming the System  
STAY Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Entry Delay On 
•  Used when you want to arm the system with persons staying inside (or if you have 
pets that are moving throughout the premises). 
•  The door & window sensors are armed, but interior motion detectors are disarmed. 
•  Exit delay begins (you can leave through the entry/exit door, if desired). 
•  An alarm sounds if any protected window or non-entry/exit door is opened. 
•  You may otherwise move freely within the premises. 
•  Persons entering later can enter through an entry/exit door, but they must disarm 
the system within the entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm. 
NIGHT-STAY Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Plus Selected Zones 
•  Use NIGHT-STAY mode to provide increased security while staying inside. 
•  Arms same as STAY mode, but also arms preselected interior sensors (programmed 
by your installer), while other interior sensors are left disarmed. 
•  Persons entering later can enter through an entry/exit door but they must disarm 
the system and must not violate any of the programmed interior zones to avoid 
sounding an alarm. 
• IMPORTANT: When NIGHT-STAY mode is on, the selected interior zones are 
armed and cause an alarm if anyone enters those areas (e.g., waking in the middle 
of the night). To avoid sounding an alarm, you must disarm the system before any 
activity takes place in those interior zones. 
INSTANT Mode: Arms Perimeter Only, Entry Delay Off 
•  Used when staying inside and do not expect anyone to use an entry/exit door. 
•  Arms same as STAY mode. 
•  An alarm sounds immediately if any protected perimeter window or any door is 
opened, including entry/exit doors. 
• IMPORTANT: Arming the system in this mode greatly increases the chance of 
false alarms. Use extreme care in selecting this mode of arming. 
AWAY Mode: Arms Entire System, Entry Delay On 
•  Used when nobody will be staying inside (including pets). 
•  The entire system (door & window sensors and interior motion detectors) is armed. 
•  Exit delay begins letting you leave through the entry/exit door. 
•  An alarm sounds if a protected window or any door is opened, or if any movement 
is detected inside your premises. 
•  You can re-enter through an entry/exit door, but you must disarm the system 
within the entry delay period to avoid sounding an alarm. 
MAXIMUM Mode: Arms Entire System, Entry Delay Off 
•  Used when leaving the premises for extended periods (e.g., vacation). 
•  Arms same as Away mode, but entry delay is off. 
•  An alarm sounds same as Away mode, and sounds upon opening entry/exit doors.

MAXIMUM security code + 4   MAX  • same as AWAY (described above) 
Note that entry delay is turned off. 
† Arming Ding: In addition to the keypad beeps, the external sounder emits a short “ding” sound after arming, if 
programmed to do so. The ding confirms that the system is armed, and may occur immediately after the command or be 
delayed (until arm/disarm report is sent or exit delay expires). Ask your installer about how this feature is set for your system. 
 
Quick Arming 
If Quick Arming was programmed by the installer, the 
[#] key can be pressed in place 
of the security code when arming the system in any of the arming modes (except Night-
Stay). However, the security code must always be used when manually 
disarming the system. 
 
Function Key Arming 
For any arming command, a function key may have also been programmed for your 
system. If so, you can press and hold the appropriate function key for 2 seconds to arm 
the system. See your installer for the designated functions (see Single Button 
Arming section). 
 
Refer to the Accessing Other Partitions section for information on multi-partition 
arming.

Arming the System (cont’d) 
Single Button Arming 
The “A”, “B”, “C”, and/or “D” keys on your keypad may have been programmed for 
single-button arming. Note that while it is not necessary to use a security code for 
arming (by using the Quick Arm method described previously), a security code must 
always be used when manually disarming the system. 
 
If Single-Button Arming is programmed: 
•  A function key has been assigned to a specific type of arming: STAY mode, NIGHT-
STAY mode, AWAY mode, or STEP-ARMING (see Step-Arming paragraph). 
•  You DO NOT need to enter your security code before pressing the function key but 
you always need your security code to DISARM the system. 
 
Before arming, close all perimeter doors and windows. 
1.  Press and hold the assigned function key for 2 
seconds (no code is required). Function keys are 
shown below.

Keyswitch 
 
Using the Keyswitch 
Your system may be equipped with a keyswitch for use when arming and disarming. 
Red and green lights on the keyswitch plate indicate the status of your system as 
follows: 
Green Light:  Lights when the system is disarmed and ready to be armed (no 
open zones). If the system is disarmed and the green light is off, it 
indicates the system is not ready (one or more zones are open). 
Red Light:  Lights or flashes when system is armed in AWAY or STAY mode. 
See your installer for the meanings of the lit red light: 
 Lit Steady  =  system armed AWAY or 
      system armed STAY and exit delay has expired 
 Flashing  =  system armed STAY and exit delay timer active  
  Rapid flashing = an alarm has occurred (memory of alarm). 
Before arming, close all perimeter doors and windows. 
 
To arm in the AWAY mode: 
  Turn the key to the right for 1/2 second and release. 
Keypads beep twice and the red indicator lights or 
flashes. 
To arm in the STAY mode: 
  Turn the key to the right and hold for longer than 1 
second, then release. Keypads beep three times and 
the red indicator lights or flashes. 
To disarm the system: 
  Turn the key to the right and release. The red light
