The Escort Key can also be used to clear an alarm. Note: The ID and MR Monitor must be confi gured to use an Escort Key. Ask your Authorized Dealer for assistance.Escorting Residents 1  Enter the protected area. If the resident is with you make sure that the door is closed or an alarm will result.2   Press the button on the Escort Key once (the green light will fl ash to indicate that the Escort Key is operating). Caution:  Once the protected area has been temporarily disarmed, other monitored residents may pass through undetected. The Escort Key should only be used when exits are under continuous staff supervision.3   Check that the Monitor has disarmed: A ID or MR Monitor  The Monitor display will show the disarm time remaining (in seconds), as in the example below.  Note: The disarm time is a confi gurable setting on the Moni-tor, and is typically 20 seconds. Ask your facility director for the actual disarm times of the Monitors in your facility.
