It requires two different passcodes to be entered on the same keypad before the area is disarmed.
Early Ambush adds a second passcode entry that cancels a duress timer after the first disarm, providing an extra security step.
When enabled, a passcode can arm or disarm all areas the keypad has access to; when disabled, it is limited to the keypad’s home area.
The alarm output is silenced and no alarm, restoral, or cancel reports are sent or logged.
