Ademco Vista 20 programming
I bought a Vista 20 alarm system with a 6160 keypad. I'm trying to program some of it before I install it.
I would like to program one of the A B C D function keys to do the armed with instant setting. So my wife won't have to do the code + instant when we are home. Can that be done? I looked at the manual and don't see that option. I already set the A function key to "Away". I wanted to set the B function key to "Night Stay with Instant"
Is this possible?

You need installer programming manuel.Yes to stay instant.
There is a quick arm function when enabled allows you to arm using pound 1.
Page 57 (in this PDF) http://www.alarmeengros.com/installation15P.pdf
Section 8-1 in the user manual...
Get into programming, if you don't know the code, completely power down the system, then power back up and press * & # at the same time when the keypad displays "d1" and that will get you in.
When in programming keypad will display "20"
Press *57, then the desired function key, then *, then 1, then *, then 05, then *, then 0 (to exit), then *, then wait a few seconds and press *99 to exit programming...
the desired function key will be set as "Night Stay"
I highly recommend printing page 57 of the PDF and this tutorial to guide you through the process...
