Auxiliary Control
An auxiliary is a device, such as a light, audible alarm, or door lock, that can
be controlled using the T
OUCH
T
RACKER
. Auxiliaries can also be initiated
automatically in response to an alarm when they have been configured to do
so. The Auxiliary On and Auxiliary Off buttons are used to control the
operation of both momentary and latched auxiliaries.
A momentary auxiliary remains active as long as its control button is
pressed. An example of a momentary auxiliary is a door that remains
unlocked as long as the
Auxiliary On
button is pressed. When the button is
released, the door returns to its locked state.
A latched auxiliary remains active until it is deactivated using the
appropriate off switch. An example of latched auxiliary is a light. When the
Auxiliary On
button is pressed, the light is turned on. When the
Auxiliary
Off
button is pressed, the light is turned off.
