Arming / Disarming:
Arming / Disarming options
: the device can also be used as a standalone alarm control device
and can be armed/disarmed using dry contacts on inputs or remotely by phone call or SMS, or by
using the arming/disarming controls in the programming software. For arming/disarming by dry
contacts you can use any accessory which has dry contact outputs, e.g. access control keypad,
card reader, RF remote controller, key switch or a simple switch, pushbutton, etc.
In order to make it possible to use the device according to the demands, different arming/disarming
options are available:
Always armed
: choose this control mode if you do not wish to arm and disarm the device,
but the inputs should always be armed, events should be generated and notifications should
be sent when activated. In this case arming and disarming will not be available and all inputs
will act as 24h zones.
Bistable contact
: choose this control mode if you wish to arm and disarm the device using
a toggle switch or relay output (open or closed). This control mode uses input IN4 (for the
IN4.R2 model) or input IN6 (for the IN6.R1 model), which in this case can be used for
arming/disarming only. When input IN4/IN6 is active, the device will be armed, and when
inactive, the device will be disarmed. Assigning the open/closed state of the dry contact to
the active/inactive state of the input can be done by configuring the input type (normally open
or normally closed) for the given input (IN4/IN6).
For normally open (NO): open=inactive=device disarmed, closed=active=device armed.
For normally closed (NC): open=active=device armed, closed=inactive=device disarmed.
Since the state of the dry contact defines the armed/disarmed status, therefore remote
arming and disarming is not available for this control mode.
Impulse on one input
: choose this control mode if you wish to arm and disarm the device
by dry contact impulses (e.g. pushbutton, or monostable relay output) using up one input.
This control mode uses input IN4 (for the IN4.R2 model) or input IN6 (for the IN6.R1 model),
which in this case can be used for arming/disarming only. The device will become armed
when input IN4/IN6 is activated shortly (impulse), then it will become disarmed upon next
short activation of the same input. Assigning the open/closed state of the dry contact to the
active/inactive state of the input can be done by configuring the input type (normally open or
normally closed) for the given input (IN4/IN6).
For normally open (NO): open=inactive, closed=active.
For normally closed (NC): open=active, closed=inactive.
Remote arming and disarming is also available for this control mode.
Impulse on two inputs
: choose this control mode if you wish to arm and disarm the device
by dry contact impulses (e.g. pushbuttons, or monostable relay outputs) using up two inputs.
This control mode uses inputs IN3 and IN4 (for the IN4.R2 model) or inputs IN5 and IN6 (for
the IN6.R1 model), which in this case can be used for arming/disarming only. The device will
become armed when input IN3/IN5 is activated shortly (impulse), then it will become
disarmed when input IN4/IN6 is activated shortly. Assigning the open/closed state of the dry
contact to the active/inactive state of the inputs can be done by configuring the input type
(normally open or normally closed) for the given inputs (IN3/IN5 and IN4/IN6).
For normally open (NO): open=inactive, closed=active.
For normally closed (NC): open=active, closed=inactive.
Remote arming and disarming is also available for this control mode.
Remote arming/disarming only
: choose this control mode if you wish to use all inputs for
custom notifications, In this case the device cannot be armed and disarmed locally through
the inputs. Arming and disarming can only be done remotely by phone call, SMS, or by using
the arming/disarming controls in the programming software.
