Zone Definitions

Program section [001] to select how each of the zones will operate. Each zone requires a two digit entry. In
addition to zone definitions, six different attributes may be programmed by zone (see Section 5.2 – "Zone
Attributes").
[00] Null Zone
The zone is vacant. Unused zones should be programmed as Null zones.
[01] Delay 1
This zone type, normally used for entry/exit doors, can be violated during the exit delay time without causing
an alarm. Once the exit delay has expired, opening the zone will start the entry delay timer. During the entry
delay time, the buzzer will sound steadily to advise the user that the system should be disarmed. If the panel is
disarmed before the entry time expires, no alarm will be generated.
[02] Delay 2
The Delay 2 entry delay time can be set independent of Delay 1 in programming section [005] (System Times).
[03] Instant Zone
This zone type will cause an instant alarm if it is violated when the panel is armed. Typically, this zone is used
for windows, patio doors or other perimeter zones.
[04] Interior Zone
This zone will not cause an alarm if violated during the entry delay. If the zone is violated before the entry
delay has begun, it will cause an instant alarm. Typically, this zone is used for interior protection devices, such
as motion detectors.
[05] Interior Stay/Away Zone
This zone type works similar to the Interior zone type except that it will be automatically bypassed under the
following conditions:
• When the panel is armed in the Stay Mode, i.e. when the panel is armed with a user code and a Delay type
zone is NOT tripped during the exit delay.
• When the panel is armed without entry delay, see section 6.11 "[ ] Commands".
The automatic bypass prevents the user from having to manually bypass interior type zones when arming at
home. This zone is typically used for interior protection devices, such as motion detectors.
[06] Delay Stay/Away Zone
This zone type will operate similar to Interior Stay/Away zones except that it will always provide an entry delay.
Typically, this zone is used for interior protection devices, such as motion detectors. This zone option will help
prevent false alarms since it always provides an entry delay time for the user to turn off the panel.
[07] - [09] Not used
[10] 24 Hour Supervisory Buzzer Zone
If this zone is violated when the system is either armed or disarmed, the panel will immediately latch the
buzzer until a valid user code is entered and will immediately communicate to the central station.
[11] 24 Hour Burglary Zone
If this zone is violated when the system is either armed or disarmed, the panel will immediately latch the alarm
output and communicate to the central station. The alarm will sound for the Bell Cutoff time programmed in
Section [005] ("System Times") or until a valid user code is entered.
[12] 24 Hour Holdup/Panic Zone
This zone is similar to the 24 Hour Burglary zone type, except for the SIA identifier.
[13] - [24] Not used
[87] Not used
[88] Standard 24 Hour Fire Zone
When this zone is violated, the panel will immediately latch the alarm output and communicate to the central
station. The alarm will sound for the Bell Cutoff time programmed in Section [005] ("System Times").
A violated Fire zone will be displayed.
