Bypassing Zones
(Not to be used in UL- listed systems)
A. General Guidance
You can program the P to exclude
(bypass) selected zones, regardless of whether
these zones are "functional" (undisturbed) or "open"
(disturbed). Bypassing permits free movement of
people within certain zones although the system is
armed. It is also used to temporarily remove from
service faulty zones that require repair work. Fire
zones can not be bypassed.
Remember – zone bypassing compromises security!
Zone bypassing must be carried out while the system
is in the disarmed state.
Note: Zones will be bypassed throughout one
disarm-arm period only. Disarming the system after
arming will suspend the entire bypassing scheme,
which can be recalled later, if so desired.
B. Bypassing Procedure
Having entered your user code successfully (see
above - Entering to the User Settings Menue), the
display will read:
SET BYPASS
If at this point you click < SHOW/OK >, the number,
state and name of the first zone will be automatically
displayed. Three states are possible:
•
Open: The zone is not secured - you can
bypass it if you do not wish or know how to solve
the problem just now.
•
Bypassed: The zone is presently bypassed
(you bypassed it before but haven't armed the
system yet).
•
Functional: If there is nothing wrong with the
zone, its state is described as "Functional".
Let us assume that Zone 1 is "open" and you wish to
bypass it, and the rest of the zones are functional.

After end of bypassing operation, BYPASS blinks:

This indication will persist as long as the system
remains disarmed, and will disappear once the
system is armed.
Note: BYPASS will alternate in the display with other
messages, like: Trouble , Memory and Message .
C. "Unbypass" Procedure
Suppose you wish to restore a zone to service after
having completed the bypassing scheme. Simply re-
enter the SET BYPASS menu (see Bypassing
Procedure above), and click <NEXT> or <BACK>
until the zone you wish to "unbypass" is on display.
Refer to the following steps.
