In Security > Arming and Disarming



Entry Time
This is the time in seconds allowed after entering the Entry Door when the system is  armed, for the system to be disarmed at the keypad. Otherwise an alarm will occur (after the Entry Warnng Time). It is possible to have different Entry Delay times for different entry doors. See topic http://www.comfortforums.com/forum83/2490.html
Note that Entry Time applies when the system is armed to Night, Day, Away or Vacation.


Exit Time
This is the time is seconds to exit the premises through the Entry Door when arming to Away Mode locally ie via keypad.
Entry Warning Time
This is the time in seconds after Entry Time expires and before the full Intruder Alarm. It provides an additional warning to the user to disarm the system

Night Exit Time
This is the delay time in seconds for arming to Night and Day Mode. It is not neccessary to exit the premises when arming to Night or Day Mode (unlike Away or Vacation Mode)

Exit Abort Time
This is the delay time in minutes when arming the system when there are open doors or windows which prevent the system from being armed. The doors and windows will be announced continually during the Exit Abort Time (default 10 minutes)  until they are closed. This then starts the Exit time or Night Exit time.

Alarm Abort Time
This is the delay time in seconds after an Intruder alarm and subsequent disarm which causes a signal to be sent to the Central Monitoring Station (CMS) also Alarm Receiving centre (ARC) that indicates that a false alarm was triggered.

Away Arming Method
The options are;

Final Door Arm: The occupants must leave the house via an Entry Door and close the door. This will terminate the Exit time and arm the system if no zones are open in the house. If the entry door is not closed or opened and closed during exit time, there wil be an Arm Failure alarm. This is the preferred method of Away arming.

After Exit Delay: The system is armed after the exit delay without needing to exit via the Entry door. This should be used only if it is not possible to have an Entry Door sensor. Final Door Arming is the preferred method. For Exit Delay arming, the exit delay continues until the exit timer expires, and the user must wait to know the system is armed. In contrast, Final Door arming will arm the system and terminate the exit delay when the Entry door is closed. Also for Exit Delay arming, a Motion sensor (PIR) must be programmed as an Entry Door to start the Entry Delay, which is not ideal.
