Entering the value 000 minutes means that the output is never armed and entering the value 255 minutes
means that the output stays activated until a section is disarmed.
When you also program a
delay time
, the output will be activated after the delay time has passed. The delay
time is also programmed in minutes (000 to 255 minutes). When a delay time is programmed at the Slow
whoop output, this is ignored, since the risk of accidents in case of a fire is unacceptably high.
Attention:
Delay times
only
influence the outputs of the control panel. I/O outputs cannot be delayed.
At
Safe zone alarm if >__ min disarmed
you can program how long a safe zone can be disarmed, before an
alarm is given. When the section with one or more safe zones is disarmed, the timer starts the countdown.
When the programmed time has passed, and the safe zone has not been armed, an alarm will follow.
At
Number of minutes prealarm RTC
you can program the number of minutes (0-9) the control panel
gives a prealarm signal before the RTC actually arms the programmed sections. By using the prealarm
function, every minute an output is activated for 4 seconds. In screen 6 you can program which outputs are
activated for signaling the prealarm alert. The prealarm begins at the programmed RTC time, so the RTC
arms the control panel when the number of minutes programmed here, has passed.
At
Auto-reset
you can program how many times a zone can give alarm after the section is armed. The
default setting is 3, which means that an armed detector can give 3 alarms within one armed period. The
fourth time the detector causes an alarm this is ignored by the control panel. Programmed outputs are no
longer activated and the alarm is not reported to the monitoring station. Outputs who were still activated due
to a previous alarm from the detector will be deactivated when the activation time has passed. Alarm from
another detector will of course still cause an alarm. The detector will function normally again when the
control panel has been disarmed.
The auto-reset function does not work with 24-hour zones, these zones can always give alarm. Entering the
value 9 means that the detectors can give unlimited alarms.
Attention:
It is not allowed to enter the value 0!
At
Number of digits usercodes
you can program the number of digits of the user codes and the installer
code. The default setting is 6 digits. The default installer code is 123456. If the installer code has not been
changed, and the number of digits is set back to 4, the installer code will become 1234.
We advise to leave the number of digits at 6.
When the number of digits is programmed to 4, the user will not encounter any problems when creating new
user codes with function 6#. However, when the user codes are created with the PC, the user codes must be
entered with 6 digits. To program 4 digit user codes with the PC, two zero’s must be added to the user code
(one zero if 5 digit user codes are used).
Warning when using the AlphaManager up/download software:
When using the AlphaManager
software, the main user code and the installer code must be entered with 6 digits. These 6 digits must
correspond with the codes programmed in the control panel. When the control panel for instance still has the
default main user code 445566 and installer code 123456, and the number of digits is set to 4, the first 4
digits of the codes (4455 and 1234) can be used on the keypad, but the complete codes 445566 and 123456
must be used in the AlphaManager software. When the user later changed his code to e.g. 9876, the
AlphaManager software reads this as 987600, and only accepts the complete 6 digits code!
Attention: When Proximity keypads are used, the number of digits must be set to 6!

At
Tel. linemonitor alarm aft. . x3sec
you can set after how many seconds a telephone line fail is reported.
When the line voltage drops below 4VDC, this is noticed by the control panel as a telephone line failure.
