Term Definition
Duress Code A code that disarms the system and activates a duress alarm. This is a silent
alarm that sends a special report to the central station.
Dynamic Batt Test at
Arming A menu option that enables a dynamic battery test at arming. This is an automatic
test carried out by the control panel at the moment of arming to ensure the battery
is working properly. The panel lowers the battery charging voltage in order to draw
current from the battery. If the system is not armed between 00:01 and 23:59, the
test is performed at 00:00.

End Download A menu option that sends a report to the central station when downloading from
the up/download software to the control panel is complete. (System Reports)
A menu entry that groups the report codes sent to the central station when
downloading is complete. (Report Codes)
End of Line Resistor A zone characteristic that specifies that two 4K7 end of line resistors are used.

Entry Guard A zone type that reduces false alarms. If an armed entry guard zone is opened,
the keypad sounder activates and the entry delay starts before creating an alarm.
This can be programmed as a zone type.
Entry route The route the user must follow through a secured area to reach the keypad and
disarm the system.
Entry time buzzer An audio indicator that sounds during all entry times.
EOL resistor See End of Line Resistor
Event Any occurrence such as system arming, faults and alarms.
A menu option that specifies which event activates an output.
Event Log
A menu command that is used to view the event log. The event log is a list of
events that occur in the system, regardless of the armed state of the system. They
are held in a sequential event buffer with a time and date stamp. When the log is
full, it overwrites the oldest entries with new data. These events can later be
viewed through downloading.
