User / Engineer Reset.
The Octagon II control panel is factory set to "user reset". This means that the users can rearm the system after an alarm
has been generated. It is however possible to prevent the user from operating the system after an alarm activation. In this
instance the Engineer code must be entered before the control panel can be set again.
This is known as "Engineer reset".
To program Engineer reset enter Engineer mode then press
followed by
to select Engineer reset, or
to select user reset.
9.5.6
Timed Exit / Final set.
The control panel is factory programmed to suspend the exit timer if any of the zones are open. The panel will set when
the exit time has expired and all zones are closed. In some instances the exit timer may continue for some time after the
exit route has been cleared, requiring the user to wait for the entry / exit tone to stop. To eliminate the need for the user
to wait for the exit time to end the control panel can be programmed to set immediately after an Entry / Exit zone has closed.
This is known as "final set".
To do this enter Engineer mode, press
followed by
to select final set , or
to select timed exit.
Note:
If final set is selected and any other zone remains open when the entry / exit zone closes the control panel will
not set. It will wait until all zones are closed. If a zone opens immediately after the entry / exit zone closes a warning tone
will be heard at the keypad and this tone will end when the zone is closed. The system will then set.
9.5.7
Communicator Set / Unset Polarity.
