SIA False Alarm Reduction features have been incorporated in this version.
This feature enables the system (or partition) to arm if there is no zone activity for a programmed time
period. See [191]-[198] - No-Activity Timer (Partition 1-8), Pg 34.
The Auto-Arm Pre-alert Time is now programmable. The default value for this timer has been
extended to 5 minutes. See Section [199] - Auto-Arming Pre-Alert Time, Pg 34.
With this feature enabled, the panel will not send a test transmission if there has been any transmis-
sion received by the receiver within the programmed time. See [018] Option 1 - Sixth System Option
Codes, Periodic Test Transmission Exception, Pg 31.
This feature requires two or more trips on a zone(s) specified as "cross zones" within a specified time
before starting an alarm sequence. See [018] Option 6 -Sixth System Option Codes, Burglary Verifica-
tion, Pg 32.
If Automatic Contact ID is enabled, reporting codes will be automatically assigned for each zone type
programmed.
When enabled and the system or Partition is in alarm, all assigned keypad buzzers will follow the bell
output. When disabled, the keypad buzzers will only sound for buzzer type alarms. See Section [018]
Option 5- Sixth System Option Codes, Keypad Buzzer Alarm, Pg 32.
See Sections [001]-[004] - Zone Definitions, Pg 20.
Zone Type 27 - Delayed 24 Hour Waterflow Zone
Zone Type 28 - Instant 24 Hour Waterflow Zone
Zone Type 29 - Auto Verified Fire Zone
Zone Type 30 - Fire Supervisory Zone
Zone Type 31 - Day Zone
This option affects the Instant Waterflow Zone and the Delay Water-flow Zone.
This option does NOT allow the user to silence alarms, manually, automatically, or by a system reset
until all waterflow zones are returned to their restored state. See Section [018] Option 4 - Sixth Sys-
tem Option Codes, Waterflow Silence Inhibit, Pg 32.
This feature is available when the ESCORT5580 v3.0, and the PC5936 v1.0 are used. This feature
enables the Door Chime to verbally annunciate the Zone that has been violated instead of a series
of beeps. See Section [018] Option 2&3, Sixth System Option Codes, Verbal Door Chime and Verbal
Alarm, Pg 32. See associated Installation Manuals.
The PC5020 v3.1 can configure any or all onboard zones for 36 ms Loop Response. See Section [030]
- Fast Loop Response, Pg 33
