Spot events are events which restore automatically immediately after their activation. Some of
the previously mentioned events are spot events.
For example, the “valid code” event activates as soon as the code is entered at the keypad,
therefore, it is impossible to determine its restoral as it starts and ends instantly.
Pulse events (Spot events) can be programmed to activate:
•
an output and calls when the event occurs
•
an output when the event restores (only if the output has the option “ON afterRestoral” activated)
Under normal circumstances, spot events are assigned to monostable outputs (Refer to
Monostable Outputs).
PULSE EVENTS
This device allows users to access and control the system. The system readers are connected to
the control panel via the I-BUS.
By means of the readers, each user can arm/disarm the partitions which are common to both
the key and reader in use and can activate shortcuts (refer to Shortcuts) . The key (TAG) must
be held in the vicinity of the reader in such a way to allow the system to read it and permit
access to authorized operations. Although readers provide a more limited access to the system,
they are easiest way of carrying out day-to-day operations (arm, disarm, etc.).
READER
This type of zone comprises a sensor that detects any movement of the protected rollerblind.
ROLLERBLIND ZONE
Violation of a zone with this configuration will not generate an alarm during the pre-set Entry
time (refer to Entry time).
For example, the zones that monitor the way to a command device (Keypad/Reader) are usually
configured as Path Zones, in order to give building occupants time to enter the building, reach
the command device (Keypad/Reader) and disarm the partition without generating an alarm.
Violation of a zone with this configuration will generate an instant alarm if the Entry time (Entry
delay) has been revoked (as per Stay Mode).
ROUTE ZONE
4 wire two-way high-speed digital communication line with 4 pole twisted shielded cable.
The 4 wires, clearly identified on the terminals are:
“+”
power 12 Volt
“
B
” data
“
A

“-”
Ground
RS485 BUS
A pre-set arming configuration which applies various operating modes to the system partitions.
Following is an example of a pre-set scenario:
•
Partition 1Disarm
•
Partition 2Away arm
•
Partition 3Stay arm
•
Partition 4Hold
•
Partition 5Disarm
SmartLiving control panels can be programmed (by the installer) with as many as 30 scenarios
in accordance with user requirements.
The “Arm/disarm” shortcut must always be associated with one of the 30 available scenarios.
When the system applies the selected scenario, the partitions will arm accordingly.
SCENARIO
This type of zone usually comprises a shock detector (e.g Glassbreak detector) which senses for
shock waves (vibration caused by hard blows).
SHOCK ZONE
The shortcuts allow direct access to the user menu sections and various operations which
normally require several steps inside the user menu.
For example, to activate/deactivate an output manually, you must:
•
type in a user code
•
access the User Menu
•
access the option in the appropriate section (activate outputs)
•
select the output
•
activate/deactivate the selected output as required
Instead, the “Activate Output” and “Deactiv. Output” shortcuts allow you to activate/deactivate
an output by simply pressing a single key or, if required for security reasons, after entering a
user code.
The shortcuts can assigned to:
•
keypads
•
codes (entered at the keypad or via remote telephone)
•
readers
•
keys
Some shortcuts (for example, “Activate Outputs”) require details before the system can
implement them. These details (parameter, value, etc.) depend on the source of the shortcut
command (keypad, code, reader, keys).
Refer to the details in the
Appendix B, Shortcuts at default
shortcuts list.
SHORTCUTS
Optical smoke detectors are equipped with sampling chambers (based on light scattering mass -
Tyndall effect). They are capable of sensing the presence of smoke particles and thus detecting
a fire in its early stages.
These detectors have low power absorption during standby. The current absorption increases
during alarm status and thus signals the danger of fire to the control panel.
SMOKE DETECTORS
An output that is monitored and therefore allows verification of its improper operating capacity
(unsuccessful activation/deactivation).
SUPERVISED OUTPUT
The “supervision time” is the interval during which the wireless-system devices (in general
wireless detectors in permanent placements) must signal to the control panel that they are
operating in the network. If a wireless device fails to signal before the “supervision time”
expires, it will be classified as “Lost” and the control panel will trigger a “peripheral-loss” fault
event.
