instant vs follow vs instant no pre-alarm paradox so alarm

I want to reprogram the my alarm so that the “sleep” and “stay” functions work differently to the current setup.

It is a paradox alarm (unsure of the exact model), but I’m pretty sure I have the correct programming manual for it here:

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://securitysa.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Paradox-User-Manual.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjGt7GHx9T8AhUKV8AKHf6QDrcQFnoECAwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0P3R-6d4ocpeGHurVktEfj

Looking at Table 5 on page 16 of the manual, I am confused about the difference between “instant”, “follow”, “instant no pre-alarm”, and “follow no pre-alarm” arming modes. Can anyone explain what these are and what the difference between them is?

The existing setup seems to use a combination of all of them and I don’t want to mess with it until I’m 100% sure about what all the settings do.
