Description
• Assign to zones that are used for primary entry and exit.
• Provides entry delay when zone type is faulted if control is armed in the
Away, Stay, or Night-Stay modes.
• No entry delay provided when the panel is armed in the
Instant/Maximum mode.
• Entry delay #1 is programmable for each partition.
• Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the
arming mode selected, and is programmable for each partition. (If Final
Contact Set exit option is selected in field *88, exit delay remains on
indefinitely until the last zone in zone list 8 is restored; once the last
zone is restored, exit delay is then 5 seconds.)
• Assign to zones that are used for entry and exit and require more time
than the primary entry/exit point.
• Provides a secondary entry delay, in same manner as entry delay #1.
• Entry delay #2 is programmable for each partition.
• Exit delay is the same as described for Type 01.
• Assign to all sensors or contacts on windows and infrequently used
exterior doors.
• Provides an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is armed
in the Away, Stay, Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.
• Assign to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway
through which one must pass upon entry (to and from the keypad).
• Provides a delayed alarm (using the programmed entry 1 time) if the
entry/exit zone is faulted first. Otherwise this zone type gives an instant
alarm.
• Active when the panel is armed in the Away mode.
• Bypassed automatically when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant
modes;
if armed in Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay
zone list) are not bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.
• Assign to a zone covering a sensitive area such as a stock room, drug
supply room, emergency exit door, etc.
• Can also be used with a sensor or contact for an area where immediate
notification of an entry is desired.
• Assign for use with sensor, device, or sounder tamper protection.
• Provides an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away, Stay,
Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.
• During the disarmed state, the system will provide a latched trouble
sounding from the keypad (and a central station report, if desired).
