3. Setting and Unsetting
There are two main ways of setting and unsetting your alarm system: either
from a keypad or from a remote control. This chapter is split into two
halves, dealing with each of those methods in turn.
In case you are not familiar with some of the terms used in this book:
“Full Set” means that
all
the detectors in the system are being
monitored. If there is any activity on any detector (apart from Technical
Alarms) then the system will start an alarm.
“Part Set” means that the system is monitoring some detectors but not
others. The installer selects those detectors that should be monitored
during a Part Set.
“Partition” is a segment of the whole system that may not be accessible
to some users. Some users can only set a single Partition. Other users
may be able to set two or more Partitions. See below for instructions on
how to set and unset individual Partitions.
Setting and Unsetting With a Keypad
When setting the system with a keypad, the process is divided into three
steps: starting the setting procedure, selecting what you want to set, and
completing the procedure. Starting the procedure always requires you to
identify yourself to the system, either by keying in an access code or by
presenting a tag (but, you may be able to use Quick Set, see below). You
then have to choose what portion of the system you want to set. To
complete the setting procedure your Installer will have chosen one of the
following methods for you: letting a timer expire, closing the final door,
pressing a special button, or closing a lock on the final door. Consult your
Installer about which method is best for your system; requirements can
depend on your local Police Authority.
When unsetting the system with a keypad, the process is divided into two
steps: triggering the entry procedure, usually by opening a door, and then
identifying yourself at a keypad with either an access code or by presenting
a proximity tag.
