Description
A monitored input programmed to activate an alarm, if violated, if the system is
armed or disarmed.
Your system is armed and one of the detection devices was violated. A 24-hour
zone (such as a smoke detector) can activate an alarm when your system is armed
or disarmed.
When answering machine bypass is used, you can connect to the system for
remote arming operations when there is an answering machine or facsimile machine
connected to the same telephone line.
The system is in a ready state to accept alarms.
The system is automatically armed in AWAY Mode or STAY Mode 1 at the same
time every day.
The system is automatically disarmed at the same time every day.
Used to arm your system when you leave your premises.
The device used to arm and disarm the system, and to execute other functions such
as adding and deleting system user codes.
Monitors a combination of zones when the system is disarmed.
Devices connected to your system that detect intrusion or fire, and activate an
alarm. Some forms of detection devices include passive infrared (PIR), smoke
detectors, photoelectric beams, reed switches, and vibration sensors.
A state in which the system does not accept alarms, except from zones
programmed for 24-hour operation.
Monitors and tests the condition of your backup battery.
The time allowed by a zone to disarm the system after you enter your premises.
Any devices connected to your system such as detectors, codepads, and sirens.
Enables you to arm your system even though one or more zones are unsealed.
The system is armed and a zone programmed for delay was violated. The delay zone
hands over the remaining delay time to a zone programmed as handover. The
handover zone does not activate an alarm until the remaining delay time expires. A
handover zone acts as an instant zone if it is violated before the delay zone.
Used to remotely operate your system using hand-held transmitters (keyfobs).
Manually disable (isolate) one or more zones before arming the system.
A code used to arm and disarm the system and to allow access to functions such
as adding and deleting user codes.
A secure location where a digital receiver monitors a number of alarm systems and
deciphers their Alarm Transmission Reports. The station operator can then advise
the appropriate authorities to take immediate action.
Type of alarm that indicates to the monitoring station there is an emergency
situation at your premises.
Refers to zone status. If a zone is sealed, the detection device is not violated and
the zone indicator is not lit on the codepad.
The ability of the control panel to recognise that detection devices might have
stopped working or that the view to a PIR detector is blocked (it is unable to detect
any movement during the time programmed by your installer).
