Stopping a Door Alarm

If you have an alarm device, such as a light, bell, or horn, connected to your system, the alarm
device will activate when certain events occur. Your installer set up the events that trigger the
alarm device, but they may include someone holding the door open too long or someone forcing
the door.

When an event triggers the alarm, the Alarm Status displays the Alarm icon

, and the Stop

Alarm button in the dashboard becomes active, so you can turn off the alarm device.

To stop the door alarm:

1. In the dashboard, click Stop Alarm.

• The alarm device turns off and the Stop Alarm button is no longer available (turns gray). If

the alarm was caused by the door being open, the alarm is re-enabled after the door closes.
