Default mode is always the Normal Mode. Door Modes can be set or changed by:
Schedule (only Network Systems, see 2.1.2 Network System (with CPR32-SE))
Function keys
Input lines
2.6 Armed and Disarmed Modes
2.6.1 Concept
PRxx1 series controllers feature 2 arming modes: Armed and Disarmed. The current mode is
indicated on the controller’s LED STATUS . Red color indicates Armed mode, whereas the green
one indicates Disarmed mode. Following methods can be used to set or change the modes:
Manually by means of identifier (access card or PIN)
Schedule (only in network systems, see 2.1.2 Network System)
Input lines
Function keys
Alarm Zones logic (only in network systems, see 2.1.2 Network System)
Remotely by PR Master software (PC)
2.6.2 Arming and Disarming
The controller can be armed/disarmed by following user types: MASTER, SWITCHER Full or
SWITCHER Limited (see 2.3.1 Standard and Guest Users). In case of MASTER and SWITCHER Full
users the procedure of arming/disarming is as follows:
Use card and/or PIN (depending on current Identification Mode – see 2.4 Identification Modes)
Upon a successful authorization, the controller might grant access and release the door lock
(depends on general access rights and some other options)
Wait till the LED SYSTEM
starts blinking
While LED is blinking, use card/PIN once more (card or PIN regardless of current Identification
Mode)
In case of SWITCHER Limited just use card and/or PIN once. SWITCHER Limited is only authorized
to arm/disarm, thus access shall not be granted.
2.6.3 Time scheduled arming/disarming
A controller’s arming mode can be altered automatically via Schedule. There are two possible two
scenarios. If controller belongs to Alarm Zone it will be armed/disarmed automatically as the given
Alarm Zone changes its arming mode however it is not important what caused the given Alarm
Zone to change Arming Mode (Schedule, user activity or any other logic). If a controller is not
assigned to any Alarm Zone, it may be assigned any Schedule which will control its arming mode.
Assigning the controller the so-called NEVER Schedule forces it to remain always in the armed
mode. On the contrary, applying the ALWAYS Schedule makes the controller operate continuously
in the disarmed mode.
An Arming/Disarming Schedule by itself is a standard schedule (a so-called General Purpose
Schedule - GPS). The GPS schedule is composed of time periods From/To used for specifying when
controller will automatically switch to disarmed mode. While outside the specified time periods, a
controller will automatically return to the armed mode. Automatic switching back to the armed
mode may be disabled if the input line
[13]: Arming disabled
is triggered or a door is opened
(
Input line [01]: Door contact
indicates that the door is not closed).
2.6.4 Option: Arm/Disarm Schedule
Whenever this option is activated, the current armed/disarmed mode on a controller changes
automatically according to the specified Schedule. The Schedule can be defined exclusively for the
Alarm Zone the controller is assigned to or it could be any schedule if the controller is not assigned
