FIRE
This zone always triggers an alarm, irrespective of whether the burglar
alarm panel is activated or deactivated. The alarm tone is affected via
the buzzer in the radio alarm panel and the external siren as a pulsed
alarm tone. Teach only fire detectors for this zone.
PA (PANIC)
This zone always triggers an alarm, irrespective of whether the burglar
alarm panel is activated or deactivated. A panic alarm can also be
transmitted silently (e.g.: via an optional telephone dialler). The
program menu can be exited only when this zone is closed.
TECHNICAL ALARM
In deactivated state, a technical zone triggers an alarm via the radio
alarm panel and an optional dialler. In activated state, no alarm is
triggered. If an alarm occurs in this zone in activated state, this is
displayed when the alarm panel is deactivated. You can use this zone
type for flood sensors.
KEY SWITCH MOMENTARY
Train a key-switch (pulse) for the radio alarm station. Any change to this
zone changes the state of the alarm panel from active to inactive or
from inactive to active (following a timeout of the delay time).
KEY SWÌTCH LATCHED
A key switch (permanent) can be connected to the burglar alarm
station. Any change to this zone changes the state of the alarm panel
from active to inactive or from inactive to active (following a timeout
of the delay time). Note that you can operate the alarm panel only via
the key switch. If the state is unclear, e.g.: the key switch is closed, and
deactivated at the radio alarm panel, the alarm panel can return to
active state.
Notes:
1. These two zone types are intended for use on zones that connect
to an access control keypad, electronic key or other type of
hardwired device used to set or unset the system.
2. When the user operates the keyswitch while the system is unset
then the radio alarm panel starts the programmed exit mode.
3. When the user operates the keyswitch while the system is set
then the radio alarm panel unsets the system immediately.
4. The user cannot reset the system from a Keyswitch zone.
5. Do not assign more than one Latched Key Switch zone to one
partition.
KEY BOX
This zone is mainly used in Scandinavia. If this zone is opened, this event
is stored in the memory of the burglar alarm station. The event can also
be transmitted via the telephone dialler. No alarm is triggered. When a
zone of this type is required, the Installer connects the alarm wires of
the zone (usually the auxiliary contacts of a door contact) to a special
external key box and the tamper wires to the box enclosure switch.
When someone opens the box the radio alarm panel logs the event
and communicates it to the ARC.
Exit Normal Alarm
A zone programmed as ‘Exit Normal Alarm’ behaves similarly to a
Normal Alarm zone. However, a zone of this type will start an alarm if
the detector is triggered during the exit time.
ZONE
A zone is a detector that has been trained for the radio alarm station.
Zones can have very different attributes. The detector does not know if
the radio alarm panel is active or not. A detector therefore always
sends an alarm to the panel if it registers a change. The radio alarm
panel then evaluates whether this message is to trigger an alarm
response or not.
