Understanding Security System Terms
Throughout this guide, and in some displays on your keypad, you
will see certain words or phrases that might be unfamiliar. Below
are some terms you will see here and on your keypad display:
Areas
An area is made up of burglary zones that can be armed or disarmed
together. One area might consist of the office doors and windows.
When you arm the office, these zones arm together and sound an
alarm if opened.
An area also constitutes a place that can be accessed by entering a
code at the keypad.
Arming
This is the term used for turning on the burglary protection in one
or more areas of the system. Your system may require you to enter
a user code. When armed, the system is able to sound alarm bells
or sirens and, if monitored, send alarm reports to a central station
when a burglary zone is tripped.
Fire, panic, and other 24-hour devices are always turned on and do
not need to be armed.
Fault
In some cases you may see the keypad display
FRONT DOOR —
FAULT
. This means that there is a problem with the front door,
such as the door being open when you are arming the system. If
you see a
—FAULT
display, attempt to correct the problem (in this
case shut the door). After the zone is in a normal state again, you
may arm the system. You may also bypass the zone and then arm
the system.
Central Station Monitoring
Your system can also be programmed to automatically send alarm,
trouble, and arming and disarming reports to a central station.
Operators at the central station can in turn dispatch the
appropriate authorities or contact you with the specific event
information.
Disarming
This means turning off one or more areas of the system. When
disarmed, the system does NOT sound alarms or send alarm reports
to a central station when a burglary zone is faulted.
Door Access
Entry/Exit doors that are used to restrict access to the building
provide door access to authorized users. When a user code is entered
at the keypad by entering a code or presenting a card to a reader,
the system verifies authority and unlocks the door for a short period
of time. See Easy Entry
TM
User’s Guide in Appendix C.
Entry or Exit zone
Almost all systems have one or more doors through which you can
enter or exit the premises. These doors are programmed with a
delay time to allow you to enter or exit without setting off the
alarm.
When you arm the system, activity on this zone is ignored until the
programmed exit
delay time expires. Once that time has expired
and the system is fully armed, opening the door causes the panel
to start the
entry
delay time. During the entry delay time, you must
enter a valid user code to disarm the system or an alarm will occur.
