Each zone may be programmed with one of these Zone Types which are
described in the following sections:
3.9.1.1
Push To Set
"
Push to Set is intended to reduce false alarms due to user error when full setting
the system. The user starts full set in the usual way and leaves the premises.
However the system will ONLY set when an external push button is pressed. The
Zone Type of the zone to which the external push button is connected must be
programmed as Push to Set.
1)
The Push to Set option must also be selected (section 3.2.3, page 22).
2)
If the zone is set to chime (see User Guide) then the push button can double
up as a door bell:
3)
The external push button should be waterproof unless it is located in an
enclosed porch.
4)
Push to Set does not operate in part set.
5)
Push to Set satisfies the requirements of NACP 14, Issue 1, Section 2.1.2.
3.9.1.2
Inhibited Entry
#
Inhibited Entry is sometimes referred to as 'intermediate entry' or 'walk through'.
Opening a zone with this Zone Type when the panel is set will cause an alarm.
During entry mode, activations of a zone with this Zone Type are disregarded. This
Zone Type would typically be used for a hall PIR when there is a magnetic contact
on the front door.
3.9.1.3
Guard
$
Guard zones are sometimes referred to as 'intruder' zones. Opening a zone with
this Zone Type when the system is set will cause an alarm. When the control panel
is unset, Guard zones are ignored. In a typical system most zones would have this
Zone Type.
3.9.1.4
Fire
%
This Zone Type is designed specifically for smoke detectors. Zones with this Zone
Type are monitored constantly even when the panel is unset. If activated they will
cause a unique alarm with a distinctive 'fire' tone on the internal speaker. In
addition, the external sounder will be pulsed rather than sounding continuously in
contrast to a normal alarm.
3.9.1.5
Tamper
&
Zones with this Zone Type are monitored constantly even when the panel is unset.
If activated they will cause an immediate alarm. The Global System Tamper zone
is factory-set to this Zone Type.
Programming options allow the Tamper alarm response to be limited to the
internal sounder if the system is unset or part set (section 3.2.2, page 21).
