Description
ISOLATE
Master
Isolating a zone deactivates that zone until such time as the zone is de-isolated
again. All zone types on the SigNET 200/300 can be isolated.
Use of this feature to deactivate faulty or open zones should be considered carefully;
once a zone is isolated, it is ignored by the system and could be overlooked when
setting the system in the future, compromising the security of the premises.
To ISOLATE a zone, see Section 4.1.
INHIBIT
Standard
Master
Inhibiting a zone deactivates that zone for one alarm set period. Only alarm,
entry/exit, fire exit and line zone types can be inhibited.
This is the preferred method of deactivating a faulty or open zone as the fault or open
condition is displayed on the Keypad each time the system is being set to remind the
user to attend to that zone.
To INHIBIT a zone, see Section 4.2.
CHANGE
CODE
Standard
Master
This menu option allows users to change their user codes.

Standard
Master
Use this menu option to program the time and date on the system.
Ensure the time and date information is accurate; these fields are presented in the
event log when reporting system events.

TEST
Standard
Master
This menu option provides the following test features:
1. Bell test The bell test activates the external bells, strobe, internal bells, and buzzer
in turn for 5 seconds to ensure their correct operation.
2. Walk test
A walk test allows for testing of the operation of all alarm sensors on a system.
When this option is selected, the Keypad displays the number of zones to test on the
system. Activate each alarm sensor (by opening the door or window) and check for
an audible beep at the Keypad. Isolated and inhibited zones are not included in the
walk test.
3. Audible Options
This option allows users to select which devices will activate during the walk test and
which will be silent.
To perform a test, see Section 4.6.
EVENT
LOG
Standard
Master
This menu option displays the most recent event on the Keypad display. The event
log details the time and date of each logged event.
To view the event log, see Section 4.7.
CHIME
Standard
Master
All zones that have the CHIME attribute set generate a short burst of audible tone on
the Keypad buzzer when they are opened (while the system is unset).
This menu option allows for enabling or disabling of the chime feature on all zones.
To enable or disable the chime attribute, see Section 4.8.

installed on the system.
