A 4 to 10 digit number given to, or selected by, a user. It is necessary
to enter a PIN on an ATS keypad as a pre-requisite to perform most
ATS functions. In the ATS programming the PIN is associated with a
user number which identifies the PIN holder to the system.
Note:
For EN 50131 Grade 3 the minimal length of PIN codes is 6
digits. For EN 50131 Grade 2 the minimal length of PIN codes is 5
digits.
Passive Infra-Red detector. A security device used to detect intruders
in a certain part of an area or premises. The technology used is
based on infrared detection.
An inquiry message continually sent by the ATS control panel to
DGPs and arming stations. Polling allows the remote unit to transfer
data to the control panel.
Remote Arming Station. See Arming station.
A device used for access control that can read cards to allow access.
Depending on the needs and the type of cards, the reader may be a
magnetic swipe reader or proximity reader.
A region is an area within a building used for access control features

A zone that is programmed to activate a door event flag. For
example, a button provided inside a door (request to exit button) to
allow users to exit without using the door reader. Request To Exit is
often abbreviated to RTE.
A procedure that automatically inhibits a zone from generating an
alarm when it is activated. For example, shunts stop a door
generating an alarm when it is opened for a short time.
A situation where a zone, an arming station, control panel, DGP or
associated wiring is tampered with, or accidentally damaged. The
ATS tamper facility activates a signal when a tamper occurs.
Tamper alarms from zones are called zone tampers.
A programmed setting which identifies specific time periods on
specific days. Timezones are allocated to ATS functions to control
the activity of that function by time and day and are primary used to
restrict access. For example, automatically arm or disarm areas or
open doors.
A protocol providing means to view the status of an ATS system or
change parameters in the system programming either locally or
remotely.
Anybody using the ATS system. Users are identified to the ATS
system by a unique number that is associated with the user PIN.
An electrical signal from a security device (PIR detector, door
contact) to the ATS system. Each device is identified by a zone
number and name. For example, 14 Reception PA Button, 6 Fire Exit
Door.
