Appendix E: Zone Types
Normal
A Normal zone is active when the system is armed. This zone generates a Burglary alarm instantly when triggered.
Normal zones are designed for detectors installed inside the protected site or doors/windows that are never used to
enter the premises.
Event Group: Burglary
Entry/Exit
When the system is armed, Entry/Exit zones initiate the entry delay when triggered. If the system is not disarmed by the
time the entry delay expires, a Burglary alarm is generated. These zones are designed for detectors protecting the
entrance to the protected site
Event Group: Burglary
Follower
If an Entry/Exit zone is triggered first, Follower zones do not generate an alarm when triggered during the entry delay.
If the system is not disarmed by the end of the entry delay, the Follower zone generates an alarm. A Follower zone
instantly generates an alarm if triggered when the entry delay is not active. These zones are designed for detectors
protecting the area in which a keypad has been installed or the area crossed in order to reach the keypad.
Event Group: Burglary
Panic
Panic zones are always active. When a Panic zone is triggered, a Panic alarm is generated. This zone type is designed
for panic buttons that may be pressed in a robbery situation. If the Bell option is disabled for Panic zones, in addition to
the siren not sounding, all forms of alarm indication from the keypad are also disabled.
Event Group: Burglary
Medical
Medical zones are always active. When triggered, Medical zones generate a Medical alarm. These zones are used
typically with panic buttons that may be pressed in the event of a Medical.
Event Group: Medical
Fire
Fire zones are always active. When triggered, Fire zones generate a Fire alarm. These zones are designed for use with
smoke detectors and panic buttons that may be pressed in the event of a fire. A Fire zone always activates the siren even
if the Bell option is programmed as disabled. Fire alarms sound a pulsating siren to distinguish them from other alarms.
Event Group: Fire
24Hr
24Hr zones are always active. When triggered, 24Hr zones generate a Burglary alarm. These zones are used for
applications that require constant protection.
Event Group: Burglary
24Hr-X
The 24Hr-X zone is a future option that is not available in the current firmware.
Event Group: Not applicable
Gas
Gas zones are always active. In the event of a gas leak, these zones generate a Gas alarm. Gas zones are typically used
with methane/propane/butane or carbon monoxide gas detectors. Gas alarms sound a distinctive siren pattern to easily
distinguish them from other alarms. A gas alarm causes the siren to sound until the alarm is restored; the siren cut-off
does not apply to gas alarms.
Event Group: Fire
