Delay when arming day / night

[rsw686]

I might of missed the configuration setting for this. The default is a 60 second exit delay. This works as expected arming in away mode and the audible beeps are sounded by the console. However it is waiting 60 seconds to arm in stay and night mode. There are no audible beeps but the console says arming night and doesn't complete for 60 seconds. Is there a way to have it arm instantly in stay and night?

I don't think there are different delays for each mode but are you worried you will be robbed or your house will burn down in the 60 seconds before the alarm arms? Once you do more programming with it, I think you'll appreciate the two step arming, because it gives you an option to perform a task right when you arm or delayed a bit when the system is actually activated.

The programming is where I have the issue. At night I arm the system by pressing the night button. I have the following program

1. WHEN Dining Motion NOT READY
AND IF NIGHT
AND IF NOT NIGHT DELAY
THEN PROGRAM ARM NIGHT DELAY

When I get up and walk downstairs past the motion it starts counting down from 60 to switch to night delay. I need to test what happens if the door is opened while it is counting down. Either the siren will go off or nothing will happen as it is in the middle of changing modes.

I might change the code to when arm night then program arm night delay. I liked the motion feature as it allows the best of both. It would be nice if HAI let the console night button be customized to either night or night delay.

Nothing will happen while it is arming.
Once it is finished, if a zone is still violated and auto bypass is off, the alarm will trigger.

If you always want NIGHT DELAY and want to use the console button,
Try this

WHEN ARM NIGHT
THEN PROGRAM ARM NIGHT DELAY
