Interconnection monitoring

If the signalling unit is remote from the alarm panel, it’s possible to wire the pin inputs  
to be able to detect open or short circuits on the interconnection wiring between the  
panel and the unit.

To enable interconnection monitoring, you need to program the unit via the  
configuration menu, app or web portal.
