24 Hour zone
A zone that will cause an alarm at any time. An example
of this type of zone might be a detector on a fire door. The
system will raise an alarm if the fire door is opened
whether the system is set or unset.
Access Code

themselves to the system. If the system does not recog-
nise the access code then it will ignore any commands
from that user.
Area
A collection of one or more zones.
Entry/Exit Route
The route you should follow from the Final Exit door to the
keypad in order to avoid starting an alarm when entering

alarm. Once you have disarmed the system you will need
to reset it to make sure the system can be set again.

get from the Final Exit door to the keypad in order to
unset the system without starting an alarm.

go from the keypad and leave by the Final Exit door when

you have correctly set the system.

the system is set.

any internal sounders, but does not activate any commu-
nications to the central station.
