 == Usage ==
 === Basic tasks ===
 * '''Arm / disarm partition'''
+1. Open the control panel of the partition.
+2. Enter a user code valid in that partition in the ''User Code'' input box.
+3. Press the button for the desired arm mode. For more information on what the various arming modes mean, please consult the user manual of the alarm panel.
+
+If ''Quick Arm'' is enabled, it's possible to arm the partition without entering the User Code. However, disarming will still require the user code.
 * '''Arm / bypass zone'''
 * '''Enable / disable Chime Mode'''

+
+== Notes ==
+* The ''Quick Arm'' feature cannot be controlled from the plugin. If ''!ExtraFeatures'' is enabled, the ''Quick Arm'' status is displayed in the ''Advanced'' tab of the partition devices. Changing it has no effect, because it is updated to its real value at startup.
+* The ''Away (No Delay)'', ''Away (Silent)'', ''Stay (No Delay)'' and ''Stay (Silent)'' buttons won't be highlighted when arming using those modes. Instead, only the ''Away'' or ''Stay'' buttons will be highlighted.
