Understanding the Security Zone Types
Security zones are the sensors that detect movement and the opening and closing of doors and
windows. The sensors communicate wirelessly with your TouchScreen. Security zones are added to the
system and configured by your installer. You can enable and disable each security zone using the
Security app.
The following table describes the security zone types available.

Description
Sensor Types
Entry/exit
For doorways that are used to enter and exit the premises
and windows.
When the system is armed, faulting this type of sensor
starts an Entry Delay countdown rather than sending an
immediate alarm.
During Exit Delay, this zone can be repeatedly faulted.
Doorways can be configured to be entry/exit or non-
entry/exit.
Note:
For more information on Entry/Exit delays, see
" Managing Your System Security" on page 28
Door/Window

If faulted when the system is armed or during an Entry/Exit

Interior with Delay
Provides an entry delay if the motion sensor is tripped
when the TouchScreen is armed. Entry Delay begins
whenever the motion sensor detects motion, regardless of
whether an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.
Motion

Interior Follower Arm
Night
Allows the use of a motion detector in Arm Night mode.
The alarm trips immediately if motion is detected. This
zone should be assigned to motion detectors that are
placed in areas of low traffic, such as attics, basements, and
garages.
