Active Zones - GE AL-1103 User Manual

Active zones

You cannot arm an area unless all the zones in that area are normal, as an active zone would usually set off an
alarm. For example, all doors and windows must be closed.
If a zone is active while you try to arm or disarm an area, the keypad sounds seven quick beeps and displays the
active zones. You may have the ability to bypass active zones and arm the system.See
options on page 10 for details.
Active zones are listed according to system programming. If Display Zones is enabled, then one zone and its
description will be displayed at the RAS. Press ON/EXT (see Figure 1 ) +MENU* (see Figure 1 ) to see the
next active zone and its description. If Display Zones is disabled, then a list of zone numbers will be displayed
at the RAS. Press the zone number and press ENTER (see Figure 1 ) to see its description.
