Zone Response Type Definitions
General Information
During programming, you must assign a zone type to each zone, which defines the way in which the system
responds to faults in that zone. Zone types are defined below.
Type Function
Characteristics
Not Used
Used to program a zone that is not used.
•
None
Entry/Exit 1
(Burglary)
Usually assigned to sensors or contacts on
primary entry and exit doors.
•
Entry delay #1 is programmable.
•
Exit delay is independently programmable.
•
Exit and entry delays when armed in AWAY, STAY or NIGHT STAY
mode.
•
No entry delay when armed in STAY INSTANT or AWAY INSTANT
mode.
•
Exit delay regardless of the arming mode selected.
Entry/Exit 2
(Burglary)
Usually assigned to sensors or contacts on
secondary entry and exit doors that might be
further from the keypad (typically used for a
garage, loading dock, or basement door).
•
Entry delay #2 is programmable.
•
Exit delay is independently programmable.
•
Secondary entry delay, if armed in the AWAY or STAY mode.
•
No entry delay when armed in the STAY INSTANT or AWAY
INSTANT mode.
•
Exit delay begins regardless of the arming mode selected.
Perimeter
(Burglary)
Usually assigned to all sensors or contacts on
exterior doors and windows
•
Instant alarm, when armed in AWAY, STAY, STAY NO DELAY,
NIGHT STAY or AWAY INSTANT mode.
Interior, Follower
Usually assigned to a zone covering an entry area
(i.e.: foyer, lobby, or hallway) that one must pass
upon entry (after faulting the entry/exit zone) to
reach the keypad. It provides an instant alarm if
the entry/exit zone is not violated first, and protects
an area in the event an intruder has hidden on the
premises before the system is armed, or gains
access to the premises through an unprotected
area.
•
Delayed alarm (using the programmed entry/exit time) if entry/exit
(types 01 or 02) or interior-with-delay (type 10) zone is faulted first.
•
Instant alarm in all other situations.
•
Active when armed in AWAY or AWAY INSTANT mode.
•
Bypassed automatically when armed in STAY, NIGHT STAY or
STAY INSTANT mode.
Trouble by Day/
Alarm by Night
Usually assigned to a zone that covers a sensitive
area (i.e.: stock room, drug supply room, etc.) It
can also be used on a sensor or contact in an area
where immediate notification of an entry is desired.
•
Instant alarm, when armed in AWAY, STAY, NIGHT STAY , STAY
INSTANT, or AWAY INSTANT (night) mode.
•
Provides a latched trouble sounding from the keypad and, if desired,
a central station report when disarmed (day).
24-hour Silent
Alarm
Usually assigned to a zone containing an
Emergency button (silent emergency).
•
Sends a report to the central station but provides no keypad display
or sounding.
•
In disarmed state sends a report to the central station displays "Not
Ready to Arm" on the keypad and “AWAY”, “STAY” and “TOOLS”
buttons are disabled.
24-hour Audible
Alarm
Usually assigned to a zone containing an
Emergency button (audible emergency).
•
Follows sounder timeout
•
Sends a report to the central station, and provides alarm sounds at
the keypad.
24-hour
Auxiliary Alarm
Usually assigned to a zone containing a button
for use in personal emergencies or to a zone
containing monitoring devices (i.e.: water or
temperature sensors, etc.).
•
Sends a report to the central station and provides an alarm sound at
the keypad. (There is no keypad timeout.)
Interior with Delay
Provides entry delay (using the programmed entry
time), if tripped when the panel is armed in the
Away mode.
Bypassed when the panel is armed in
the STAY or STAY INSTANT mode.
•
Entry delay #1 (with programmed entry time) when armed in the
AWAY mode.
•
Entry delay begins whenever sensors in this zone are violated,
regardless of whether an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.
•
No entry delay when armed in the AWAY INSTANT mode.
•
Exit delay regardless of the arming mode selected.
Fire No Verification
Can be assigned to any wireless zone used as a
fire zone. This zone type is always active and
cannot be bypassed.
•
Alarm sound will pulse (Temporal Fire) when this zone type is
alarmed.
Fire with
Verification
Can be assigned to any wireless zone used as a
fire zone. Fire with verification is available with
smoke detector device type. It can not be used
with heat detectors, combination heat/smoke
detectors, wireless sensors or fire pull stations.
This zone type is always active and cannot be
bypassed.
•
Alarm sound will pulse (Temporal Fire) when this zone type is
alarmed. Only after the alarm has been verified.
•
System verifies alarm by delaying reporting and control panel alarm
sounding for 30 seconds after alarm is detected. If the zone remains
faulted after 30 seconds a fire alarm is provided. If any other fire
zone is faulted during the 30 second delay window a fire alarm is
immediately provided for that zone. An alarm for original fire zone will
also be provided if that zone is still faulted afterward. If there are no
fire alarms after the 30 second delay expires, the system will open a
60 second window. If any fire zone is faulted during that window a
fire alarm will immediately be provided for that zone.
24-hour Carbon
Monoxide Monitor
Can be assigned to any wireless zone with a carbon
monoxide detector. This zone type is always active
and cannot be bypassed.
•
Local keypad and detector will sound when this zone type is alarmed.
(Pulse Temporal 4)
