Entry delay The time allowed to disarm your security system after the first
detection device has been activated.
Event Events are messages that are sent by the security system due to
system or partition conditions. These include partitions in alarm,
opening and closing, zone bypass, low battery, tamper,
communication trouble, and power issues.
Event list Event lists contain events that a channel is allowed to send to the
specified destination. If a channel receives an event that is not in the
associated event list, then the channel will ignore the event.
Exit delay The time allowed to exit the premises after the security system is
armed.
Fire alarm An alarm triggered by fire or smoke detectors indicating a fire.
Fob See keyfob.
Forced arming An option that permits arming even when there are open zones.
Generally assigned to zones that cover the security system (for
example, motion zones, front door reed switches), allowing the user
to arm the security system without the need to wait for those zones to
be closed.
Forced door Door opened without valid permission
History A list of past alarm, door control, video, and other system events
stored in memory that can be viewed from a keypad, from the
application, or through DLX900 connections.
Hold-up A silent alarm that is triggered by a hold-up button. Normally it does
not trigger any siren, only sends a message to a central station.
Sometimes also referred to as Panic button.
Installer A company that installs and services security equipment.
Key switch A device using a switch to arm or disarm partitions. The switch needs
a key to switch.
Keyfob A personal wireless device, which is used to perform programmed
functions, for example, arm or disarm partitions.
Keypad A device that is the user interface for security options for partitions or
for access points (doors). The keypad can be a console (keypad
used to program the control panel, perform user options, view
alarms, etc.) or any other device that can be used to perform security
function, such as arm or disarm partitions, open doors, etc.
LCD Liquid crystal display. The part of a keypad where messages are
displayed.
Local alarm An alarm that is signalled only within premises and occurs when a
partition is occupied. The circumstances that cause a local alarm
may be checked and rectified by personnel on site and it is therefore
unnecessary for the alarm to be reported to a central station.
Master code A PIN that is used by a user to arm or disarm the security system. Its
main feature is the ability to create, alter, and delete user PINs. Can
also be used as a function code for all features.
