gate will lock, an electronic chirp will
sound once, the turn signal lights will flash
once, and the security indicator light will
start flashing rapidly. After rapid flashing
for 30 seconds (standby time), the security
indicator light will then flash slowly (twice

When you close the door, the system will automatically arm and the doors will be automatically locked.
