Familiarize Yourself with the Security System
Security Modes
The X-Sense home security system has 3 modes to choose from: Disarm, Home, and
Away. You can easily switch between these modes through the app or by using a
remote control.
The default system settings for each mode are listed below. You can choose
which sensors are armed or disarmed in each mode, as well as customize mode
options for each sensor.
Disarm
The system is disarmed, and all sensors are disabled. This mode is used when
you are at home and/or want to move in or out freely.
Home
The system is armed, but sensors will not alarm by default. You can customize
the sensor functions for this mode within the app.
Away
The system is armed by default, and all sensors will alarm when activity is
detected. You can control your home security and set up individual sensor
settings within the app.
Delay Functions
Exit Delay
The exit delay gives you the time to leave the monitored area without
triggering an alarm when the system is armed. If the exit delay is on and if
you leave the monitored area within the set delay time, the alarm will not
sound.
Exit delay is disabled by default for each mode. You will need to set up a
delay time ranging from 0 to 300 seconds within the app.
Entry Delay
The entry delay gives you time to get inside the monitored area while the
system is armed and manually disarms the alarm. Be sure to disarm the system
within the set delay time to avoid triggering an alarm.
Entry delay is disabled by default for each mode. You will need to set up a
delay time ranging from 0 to 300 seconds within the app.
Additional Functions
- Receive instant notifications on your phone when activity in the detected area is captured by the sensors. Make sure you allow push notifications to be sent to your phone from the app.
- Invite up to 12 trusted people to help manage your security system. Added users can arm and disarm the system but cannot change sensor settings.
