PROGRAMMING SECTIONS
[1]
Zone Definitions
Enter four 2-digit numbers in this section to determine the operating characteristics of each zone.
Zone Definitions: Digit 1
The first digit of each Zone Definition determines each zone’s audible alarm characteristics and response
speed. When programmed as
audible, the siren will sound on alarm; when programmed as silent, the siren will
not sound on alarm. When silent alarms are used, Programmable Output Option [3] should be used to activate
a programmable output when an alarm is generated. If silent alarms are not followed with a programmable
output activation, there will be no alarm indication. Refer to Section [4] for information on programming the
programmable outputs.
Zone response times are factory set at 500 ms. When programmed as
fast, the zone response time will be
10 ms. When programmed as
slow, the zone response time will be 500 ms.
Zone Definitions: Digit 2
Digit 2 determines the zone type as described below:
[0] Standard Delay:
The Standard Delay Zone is normally used for Entry/Exit doors. The Exit Delay starts when
the system is armed; the zone may be opened and closed during the delay without causing an alarm. When
the Exit Delay expires, opening the zone will start the Entry Delay. During the Entry Delay, the keypad buzzer
will sound to indicate that the system should be disarmed. If the system is disarmed before the Entry Delay
expires, no alarm will be generated. Entry and Exit Delay times may be independently programmed for 1
to 255 seconds in Section [2].
[1] Instant:
Instant Zones are normally used for door and window contacts. Instant Zones have the standard
Exit Delay, but will generate an
instant alarm when opened after the Exit Delay expires.
[2] Interior:
Interior Zones are normally used with interior motion detectors and have the standard Exit Delay.
The zone will also have the standard Entry Delay provided that a Delay Zone has been activated before the
Interior Zone. If an Interior zone is tripped before a Delay zone, an alarm will be generated.
[3] Home-Away with Delay:
Home-Away Zones operate similarly to Interior Zones with the following additional
feature: if the system is armed and a Delay zone is not activated during the Exit Delay time, the Home-Away
zones will be automatically bypassed. This feature allows the system to be armed with the Interior Zones
automatically bypassed so that the user may remain on the premises.
If a Delay Zone is activated during the Exit Delay, the Entry Delay will be applied to Home-Away with Delay
zones when the Exit Delay expires. If a Home-Away with Delay zone is then activated, the Entry Delay will
be initiated. If a Home-Away with Delay zone is activated during the Entry Delay, that zone will follow the
Entry Delay before generating an alarm if the system is not disarmed.
If the system is armed with the [
∗
][9][Access Code] At-Home Arming Command, zones programmed as
Home-Away with Delay will remain bypassed until the system is disarmed.
[4] 24-Hour Steady-Alarm:
24-Hour Steady-Alarm zones are active at all times and will sound an alarm even
if the system is disarmed. When a 24-Hour Steady Alarm zone is activated, the bell or siren will sound with
a steady tone. The alarm may be silenced by entering an Access Code on the keypad. These zones may
be programmed as
silent when a Programmable Output is enabled; refer to Programming Section [4] for
information on setting Programmable Output options.
[5] 24-Hour Pulsed-Alarm:
24-Hour Pulsed-Alarm zones are active at all times and will sound an alarm even
if the system is disarmed. When a 24-Hour Pulsed-Alarm zone is activated, the bell or siren will sound with
a pulsing tone. The alarm may be silenced by entering an Access Code on the keypad.
NOTE:
24-Hour
Pulsed-Alarm zones should always be programmed as
audible so the bell/siren output will be activated
when an alarm is generated.
