Are All Points the Same?

Not all points are the same. In fact, there are two basic types of points: Controlled and 24-hour.

Controlled Points

Controlled points respond to alarm conditions depending upon whether the system is turned on or off. They are
programmed to either respond instantly to alarm conditions, or to provide a delay for you to reach the command center
and turn the system off. Various controlled points may be located throughout your house.
When you turn your system on, you have the option of turning on all controlled points (All On) or just some of the
controlled points (Part On). See All On and Part On for more information.

24-Hour Points

24-hour points are always on, even when the system is turned off. There are two types of 24-hour points: Fire and Non-Fire.
See Reset the System on page 30 for more information.
• Fire Points: Only monitor fire detection devices such as smoke detectors. They are always on and cannot be
turned off.
• Non-Fire Points: Always on and cannot be turned off.

All On

When you turn your system All On you are turning on all controlled points, both interior (motion detectors) and perimeter
(doors and windows of the building).

Part On

When you turn your system Part On you are turning on only a portion of the controlled points. The particular points
included in this portion are determined by your alarm company. Part points may include only the perimeter (doors and
windows) of your system, or the points on the first floor of a two-story house. Check with your security company to learn
which points are Part points.
