Description
• Used with special Blockschloss lock and key.
• System arms 5 seconds after the key is fully turned (arms MAXIMUM);
key can then be removed.
• When armed, the Blockschloss zone is shorted. An open circuit on this
zone causes trouble condition.
• If zones are "not ready," the key will not turn fully and the system will
not arm.
• Contact ID report code is 409.
• Once the system is armed using Blockschloss, it can be disarmed only by
the key; wired keypads, RF keypads, and keyfobs cannot be used for
disarming.
• If any zone in the system is assigned as Blockschloss zone type, the
system will not arm in AWAY mode. The system can, however, be armed
in STAY or INSTANT modes from keypads and keyfobs even if the
Blockschloss zone is faulted.
• Allows for various custom responses.
• Options include response to entry/exit delays, response to opens/shorts,
types of alarm/trouble sounding, dial delay, and unique Contact ID
report codes.
• Use *83 Menu mode to program these configurable zone types.
