How Do I Un-Bypass A Bypassed Zone On a Honeywell System?

In this video, Jorge explains how to un-bypass a panel zone that is currently bypassed. When a zone is bypassed, the system will ignore that zone, even if the rest of the system is armed. Bypassing a zone can be useful, but a user will likely want to un-bypass the zone at some point to use it later.

Any zone that is bypassed will be ignored by the system. If the sensor for a bypassed zone is faulted, the system will not display the fault. A bypassed zone is also unable to cause an alarm on the system at any time. Any type of zone can be bypassed, with the exception of life-safety zones. Bypassing a zone can be helpful in various situations. The most common reason to bypass a zone is that a user wants to arm their system, but a sensor is currently in a faulted or troubled state. A user may also bypass a sensor if they expect the sensor to be faulted while the system is armed, but they don't want the sensor to cause an alarm.

The advantage to bypassing a sensor is that all of the settings for the sensor will be retained on the system, and the sensor can be easily used later. If it were impossible to bypass the sensor, then the user would have to delete the sensor and reprogram it later on. This would be a very inconvenient task for temporarily disabling a sensor. Instead, bypassing a sensor is the logical solution in these cases. Bypassing can be done both from the panel itself and from an interactive service like Total Connect 2.0.

But when a user does want to use a bypassed sensor, they will have to un-bypass it on the system. This will return the zone to normal and have it recognized by the system again. Once a zone has been un-passed, the system will display any faults or trouble conditions that may occur for that zone. The associate sensor will also be able to cause alarms.
