Understanding Security Zone Types
Security zones are the sensors that detect movement and the opening and closing of doors
and windows. The sensors communicate wirelessly with your Touchscreen. Security zones
are added to the system and configured by your installer. You can enable and disable each
security zone using the Security app.
Table 1-2 describes the security zone types available.
Table 1-2. Security Zone Types

Function
Description
Sensory Types
Entry/exit
For doorways that are used to enter and exit the premises and windows.
When the system is armed, faulting this type of sensor starts an Entry Delay
countdown rather than sending an immediate alarm.
During Exit Delay, this zone can be repeatedly faulted. Doorways can be
configured to be entry/exit or non-entry/exit.
For more information about Entry/Exit delays, see Chapter 3, Managing Your
Security System.”
Door/Window
Perimeter
If faulted when the system is armed or during an Entry/Exit delay, an alarm is
tripped.
Door/Window sensor
Motion detector
Glass break detector
Interior Follower
Monitors the internal living spaces of the premises and triggers an immediate
alarm if the system is armed in Away mode.
Not armed when the system is in Armed Stay mode.
Motion detector
Interior with Delay
Provides an entry delay if the motion sensor is tripped when the Touchscreen is
armed. Entry Delay begins whenever the motion sensor detects motion,
regardless of whether an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.
Motion detector
Interior Follower Arm
Night
Allows the use of a motion detector in Arm Night mode. The alarm trips
immediately if motion is detected. This zone should be assigned to motion
detectors that are placed in areas of low traffic, such as attics, basements, and
garages.
Motion Detector
Interior Delay Arm
Night
Provides a delay equal to the entry delay when the detector is tripped. This zone
can be used in a high-traffic area.
Motion Detector
24-Hour Inform
When this security zone is tripped, there is never an alarm. However, an event is
recorded in the history, and the Touchscreen emits a configured sound.
