Easy armed mode change is an Ajax keypad option that allows you to change the security mode of an object (or a group) to the opposite using an access device without confirmation with the keypad buttons.
The Easy armed mode change feature is available for Ajax keypads that support authentication via Pass, Tag, and/or smartphone (via Bluetooth):
The option is available if Pass/Tag reading and/or Bluetooth is enabled in the keypad settings, and the Group mode is inactive, or a group is assigned to the keypad (in the keypad settings, Group management field). Note that after activating the Group mode, the option will be called Assigned group easy management.
When the option is enabled, the keypad can manage the security mode as follows:
Activate a keypad.
Present Tag, Pass, or smartphone to the keypad reader.
The security mode will change to the opposite. For example, if the system was not armed, it will switch to armed mode.
