2.4 Auditory Feedback
When you enter information on the keypad, it will guide you
with beep tones. You should be familiar with these:
Confirmation Beep: When an operation (i.e. arming/
disarming) is successfully entered on the keypad or when the
system switches to a new status/mode, the keypad produces
an intermittent beep tone (“
BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP”).
Rejection Beep: When the system reverts to previous st atus
or when an operation is incorrectly entered on the keypad, it
will emit a continuous beep tone (“BEEEEEEEEP”).

3.0 Arming & Disarming
Take full advantage of your Spectra system by familiarizing
yourself with all of the arming methods.
If your system is not partitioned (see Partitioning on
page 22), everything is considered as belonging to area 1.
3.1 Exit Delay
After entering a valid arming sequence, an Exit Delay Timer
will provide you with enough time to exit the protected area
before the system arms. The keypad may beep during the
Exit Delay and the icon will flash with the number of the
partition in exit delay.
3.2 Disarming & Deactivating an Alarm
To disarm an armed system or an alarm, enter your access
code. An entry point, like the front door, will be programmed
with one of two Entry Delay Timers. When an entry point is
opened, the keypad will beep until you disarm the system.
Your alarm system will not generate an alarm until this timer
elapses. To disarm alarms generated by a Delayed Fire
Zone, please refer to Fire Alarms on page 15.

3.5 Stay Arming
This method allows you to remain in the protected area while
partially arming the system. Stay Zones are zones that are
bypassed when S tay Arming. For example, when you go to
sleep at night, doors and windows can be armed without
arming other zones like motion detectors.
How Do I Stay Arm?
1. Close all zones in the desired area (except Stay Zones).
2. Press the key.
3. Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
4. If required, press the key corresponding to the desired
area, [1] or [2]. For both areas, press the other key after
the confirmation beep.
Stay Arming can also be activated using Auto-Arming
(see page 14), a Keyswitch (see page 14) or One-Touch
Arming (see page 12).
3.6 Instant Arming
Instant Arming is similar to Stay Arming. Instant Arming
partially arms your system and enables you to remain in the
perimeter after the system is armed. However , Instant Arming
ignores any Entry or Exit Delays Therefore, any armed zone
that is breached will immediately generate an alarm.
1640 Icon LCD Keypad 9
How Do I Instant Arm?
1. Stay Arm the system as outlined in Stay Arming on
page 9.
2. During the Exit Delay press and hold the key for 3
seconds.
3.7 Force Arming
During Force Arming, any open zones are temporarily
“deactivated” so you can rapidly arm the system without
waiting for all of the zones in the system to close. When the
zone closes, the system will then arm those zones. Force
Arming is commonly used when a motion detector is
protecting the area occupied by a keypad.
How Do I Force Arm?
1. Close zones in the desired area (except Force Zones).
2. Press the
key.
3. Enter your [ACCESS CODE].
4. If required, press the key corresponding to the desired
area, [1] or [2]. For both areas, press the other key after
the confirmation beep.
