Your Control Panel

The Vivint Smart Hub monitors and manages all aspects of your

integrated smart home system, including security sensors and

automation devices. The touchscreen panel provides critical

status information, alerts and event notification, and activity

history; as well as access to video and audio communication,

security arming/disarming, connected devices (locks, cameras,

etc.) configuration and operation, and emergency features.



Touchscreen display

When the touchscreen background color is green the security system is ready

to arm, when gray the system is disarmed, and when orange it is armed.

The top status bar shows date & time and weather information, and provides

access to emergency, networking, power, and sound features.



The bottom navigation bar indicates the security mode, and provides access

to connected devices and the main Menu.



Downcast light indicator (system status)

When the light is green the security system is disarmed (ready to arm).

When the light is red the security system is armed.

Arm the Security

System

Arming your system activates monitoring of the security sensors*

(doors, windows, motion) in order to protect your home from

intrusion. If a sensor is triggered when the system is armed, an

alarm results and the Monitoring Station contacts you through

Vivint Live™, the two-way voice communication on the panel.

Press the Arming icon , and then:

Arm your system to Stay mode by dragging to the left. The Exit Delay

timer will silently count down 60‡ seconds. Use Arm Stay when you want

to be able to stay protected while at home. Arm Stay activates all

perimeter sensors (i.e, door/window) but not the interior sensors.

Arm to Away mode by dragging to the right. The Exit Delay timer will

audibly count down 60‡ seconds. Use Arm Away when you want to

protect your home while you're away. Arm Away activates all of the

security sensors including interior sensors and motion detectors.

Silent Exit—Use this option to mute sounds during your exit this time.

Turn off Entry Delay—Use this option to turn off the delay timer, so

the system arms immediately rather than counting down.



*Some 24-hour sensors such as smoke and CO detectors, panic pendants, and

flood sensors are always active and can trigger an alarm 24x7x365.

‡Specific time values indicate the default setting.

Arm to Stay Mode

Arming to Stay Mode is for arming the home security service when people are

staying in the house. Stay Mode arms the sensor‐protected perimeter doors

and windows while not arming the interior motion sensors or other interior

doors. This allows your home to be occupied while the system is partially

armed.

Stay Mode is used for arming the system after everyone is inside and no one is

expected to enter or leave. When the system is armed in Stay Mode, you can

move about your home without triggering the home security alarm. All the

interior protection is off. But, if a sensor-protected perimeter door or window

is opened, an alarm will sound.

Entry Delay in Stay Mode

When arming the system in Stay Mode, an Entry Delay option is shown on the

panel’s Arming screen. This provides a way for an authorized person to enter

using a sensor-protected door and disarm the system before an alarm is

triggered.

This option is enabled, so the delay allows time for disarming the system after

the door is opened. Disabling this option removes the delay, causing those

entrances to instantly trigger the alarm in Stay Mode.

Quick Exit in Stay Mode

A configurable option called Quick Exit may be displayed on the Security

Screen while the system is armed in the Stay Mode.

Pressing the Quick Exit button starts a timer to allow someone to exit or enter

through a sensor-protected door programmed for delay without having to

disarm the entire system. When the delay timer runs out, the system returns to

the normal Stay Mode.

Silent Exit in Stay Mode

The following options for silencing the beeps and announcements are available

when arming or disarming the system in Stay Mode.

lOn the Security screen, a Silent Exit button is displayed.

lOn the Arming screen, a Silent Exit button is displayed.

lOn the Exit Delay screen, a Silent Exit button is displayed.

Selecting any of these options silences the Exit Delay beeps while the system is

being armed. When arming, selecting this option doubles the length of the Exit

Delay.

NOTE: To silence chimes and touchscreen feedback, press the Mute button

on the panel's status bar.



Arm to Away Mode

Arming to Away Mode is for arming the system when everyone is leaving the

house. Away Mode arms all sensor-protected perimeter doors and windows,

interior motion sensors, interior glass break sensors, and any other sensor-

protected interior doors. Your home must be unoccupied while the system is

armed in Away Mode.

When the system is armed in Away Mode, you cannot move about the

protected areas without triggering the home security alarm (applies only if the

system is installed with interior motion detectors). An alarm also occurs if any

sensor-protected door or window is opened or glass breakage is detected

(applies only if glass break detectors are installed in your system).

Exit and Entry Delays in Away Mode

Certain sensors, such as a door sensor, have a delay before triggering an

alarm. This provides a way for an authorized person to reenter the home

without triggering an alarm.

lExit Delay: Allows time to leave after arming the system.

lEntry Delay: Allows time to enter and disarm the system before

an alarm is triggered. When arming the system in Away Mode,

an Entry Delay option is shown on the Security screen. By

default, this option is enabled, so the configured delay doors

allow time for disarming the system after the door is opened. If

you disable this option, the delayed alarm trigger is removed

from all sensor‐protected doors programmed for delay. Those

entrances instantly trigger an alarm if they are opened in Away

Mode.

NOTE: With the Entry Delay disabled, you must remotely disarm the system

with a wireless remote device such as a key fob before entering.

Exit Delay Restart

The Exit Delay Restart option extends the Exit Delay one time if you need to re-

enter the home. With the Exit Delay Restart option, when you re‐enter the

home after you have left, but before the Exit Delay timer expires, will restart

the Exit Delay timer, giving you the full length of time to leave again.

NOTE: The Exit Delay Restart option only works once each time the system is

armed.

Silent Exit in Away Mode

Three options for silencing the beeps and announcements are available when

arming or disarming the system in Away Mode.

lOn the Home screen, a Silent Exit option is displayed.

lOn the Arming screen, a Silent Exit option is displayed.

lOn the Exit Delay screen, a Silent Exit option is displayed.

Selecting any of these options silences the Exit Delay while arming the system.

When arming, selecting Silent Control doubles the length of the Exit Delay.

Quick Exit in Away Mode

A configurable option called Quick Exit may be displayed on the Security

screen while the system is armed in the Away Mode. Pressing the Quick Exit

button starts a timer to allow someone to exit or enter through a sensor-

protected door configured for delay without having to disarm the entire

system. When the delay timer runs out, the system returns to the normal Away

Mode.

NOTE: If interior sensors are installed in the system in certain areas, do not

violate those sensors when using the Quick Exit feature in Away Mode or an

alarm will occur.

Auto Stay Mode

The system may have been configured by the Vivint Technician for Auto Stay

Mode. If this option is on and the system is armed in Away Mode, if an

exit/entry delay sensor is not triggered before the Exit Delay expires (no one

left the home), the system automatically arms in Stay Mode instead of Away

Mode.

Disarm the

Security System

Disarming the security system deactivates monitoring of security

sensors (but does not disable the sensors basic functionality) and

prevents an alarm from being triggered. Disarming also shuts off

any alarm currently in process.



Press the Arming icon and disarm the system by dragging down and

entering your personal code (PIN).



When armed in Stay mode, you can use the Quick Exit feature to let someone

leave your home without triggering an alarm (and without having to disarm).

Additional Information: Disarming

To prevent your home security service from triggering an alarm, the security

services need to be disarmed. Disarming turns off the home security

protection part of the system for sensors that are not 24-hour sensors.

Disarming also stops any type of alarm in process.

The system should be disarmed from Stay Mode before exiting your home.

The system should be disarmed from Away Mode when entering your home.

When disarming from the panel, enter a valid User PIN. A wireless key fob can

also be used to disarm the system. Entering a User PIN is not required when

disarming with a wireless key fob.

An IMPORTANT feature of the panel is its ability to warn you if an alarm has

occurred while you were away. If an alarm was triggered while the system was

armed, the alarm siren runs for a preset length of time then stops. When you

enter to disarm the system, instead of sounding the normal Entry Delay beeps,

the panel sounds fast beeps to warn you that an alarm has occurred while you

were away.

WARNING: When you enter your home to disarm the system, if you hear fast

repeated beeps instead of the normal Entry Delay beeps, use extreme caution!

An intruder may be inside! Wait outside in an area visible to others and call law

enforcement for assistance.

Qui ck Exit in Stay Mode

A system setting called Quick Exit may be displayed on the Security screen

while the system is armed in the Stay Mode.

Pressing the Quick Exit button starts a timer to allow someone to exit or enter

through a sensor-protected door programmed for delay without having to

disarm the entire system. When the timer runs out, the system returns to the

normal Stay Mode.

The Quick Exit option is on by default, and can be turned on or off by your

Vivint Field Service Professional.

Disarm fr om Away Mode

The system should be disarmed from Away Mode when entering your home.

To disarm the system from Away Mode

1. Enter the home through a protected door.

2. The Disarm screen displays on the panel and the normal Entry

Delay beeps sound.

3. Enter a valid User PIN to disarm the system.

If a Security Alarm Occurs

If an armed sensor is tripped while the system is armed in either Stay or Away

Mode, an alarm occurs and the siren sounds. Delayed sensors start the Entry

Delay to allow time to disarm the system. Instant sensors trigger the alarm

right away. Most sensors trigger the alarm siren while some sensors may be set

to trigger a silent alarm without sounding the siren.

NOTE: Temporarily muting the alarm siren

When the alarm siren is sounding, you can temporarily mute (turn off) the alarm

siren by pressing any button on the panel interface. Pressing a button will mute

the alarm siren for one second. The alarm siren will continue to sound until the

proper disarming code is entered.

Alarm Siren

If the alarm is tripped while the system is armed, the panel sounds the alarm

siren for a preset time. After the time expires, the alarm will stop sounding.

The system limits the number of times a sensor can re-trigger an alarm while

the system is armed. The setting is one to six times per sensor, per arming

period.

Alarm History

If an alarm has occurred while the system was armed, the Disarm screen shows

the time and date of the alarm and the sensor(s) that triggered the alarm.

After the system is disarmed, the Alarm History screen appears. The Alarm

History screen shows the sensor(s) that have caused the alarm. If more than

one sensor has been triggered, the display shows the order in which the alarms

occurred.

The alarm history is automatically cleared the next time the system is armed.

You can also check the Clear Alarm History button to manually clear the alarm

history (NOTE: 24-hour fire and CO sensors that are still violated remain in the

alarm history).

Emergency and

Fire Protection

The Emergency button (+) is found in the status bar of the

display (right-hand side). Use this button in case of an emergency.

Note that just pressing this button does not trigger an alarm.



When you press the button, the Emergency screen appears with three options:

Use the Emergency buttons

1. Press and hold the appropriate Panic, Emergency, or Fire button for at

least 2 seconds until the alarm sounds.

2. The panel will send a signal immediately and a Monitoring Station

representative will confirm the emergency through Vivint Live, which is

the two-way voice communication at the panel. If no one at your home

responds, the representative will call your emergency contacts. If the

first emergency contact cannot be reached, Vivint will dispatch the

authorities and continue trying to reach your emergency contacts.

About fire and carbon monoxide alarms

Your home may be installed with fire and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors as

part of the comprehensive smart home security system. This safety feature is

enabled 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

In the event of a fire, smoke, or CO gas emergency, that specific detector

automatically activates your security alarm. The detector will emit a loud

alarm, and the panel will also emit a loud intermittent alarm to warn you. The

panel alarm continues for four minutes or until you enter your PIN at the panel.

Additional Information: Fire Safety

Your home can be installed with fire and carbon monoxide detectors as part of

Vivint's overall home security system. These security services are active 24

hours-a-day, 365 days a year.

In the event of a fire or poisonous CO gas emergency, the installed smoke and

CO detectors automatically activate your security system. Not only will the

smoke and CO detectors emit a loud alarm sound, the panel emits a loud

intermittent alarm sound to warn you of the alarm. The fire alarm sound

continues for four minutes or until you enter a User PIN at the panel. Your

Vivint Field Service Professional can increase the amount of time the fire alarm

sounds before automatically turning off.

If the Alarm Sounds

lGet out and stay out. Never go back inside for people or pets.

lIf you have to escape through smoke, get low and go under the

smoke.

lCall the fire department from outside your home.

Automatic Fire Alarm

If the fire alarm sirens are sounding, do the following:

1. If flames and smoke are present, yell "FIRE!" to alert everyone

else.

2. Evacuate all occupants from the house and call your local Fire

Department from a safe location.

1. If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the possible

causes of the alarm.

2. Go to the panel and enter your PIN to stop the fire alarm.

3. Review the Alarm Memory (in the system activity history) to

determine which sensor caused the alarm.

4. Go to the sensor and look for a possible reason the sensor was

triggered.

5. Correct the condition that caused the detector to sense smoke.

Initiating a Fire Alarm Manually

Evacuating all occupants safely from the house is always the highest priority in

the event of a fire. If you become aware of a fire before your detectors sense a

problem, do the following:

1. Yell "FIRE!" to alert everyone else.

2. If the panel is easily accessible and the alarm has not

activated, go to the panel and press the white lighted button,

then press and hold down the Fire button on the touchscreen

for at least 2 seconds. This action triggers the panel fire alarm.

3. Evacuate all occupants from the house and call your local Fire

Department from a safe location outside your home.

Silencing a False Fire Alarm

If the fire alarm is sounding due to a detector sensing burnt food or some

other non-emergency condition, do the following:

1. Silence the fire alarm sirens by entering your User PIN at the

panel.

2. Review the Alarm Memory to determine which sensor caused

the alarm. If the alarm restarts, there may still be smoke inside

the detector’s sensor. Re-enter your User PIN to stop the alarm

from continuing to sound.

3. If the alarm restarts, there may still be smoke in the detector's

sensor. Enter your user PIN again to stop the alarm. Fan the

detector for 30 seconds to clear the detector’s sensor chamber.

4. After the problem has been corrected, go to the Alarm History

screen, check Clear Alarm History, and then press OK. (NOTE:

Fire and CO sensors that are still violated cannot be cleared

from the Alarm History screen until the device returns to normal

operation. Carefully inspect your home for fire or heat if your

fire alarm remains in alarm state.)
