09 Keyswitch
The Keyswitch function allows a zone to be used as an on/off switch for the system or assigned groups.
Operating a Keyswitch zone when the system is unset (disarmed) starts the timed full setting (arming)
routine, therefore the exit time is applicable. The system sets when the exit time expires or a Final or Push
Set is activated.
NOTE: Assigning a # to the keyswitch zone function will cause the Instant setting (arming) routine to be
activated. In this case the exit time is not applicable. If a Keyswitch Zone has its omit attribute enabled,
activation of the Keyswitch will force set/arm the assigned groups. Only zones with the omit attribute
enabled will be omitted.
When the keyswitch is activated twice during the exit time of an autoset, the autoset is temporarily
cancelled for a few seconds, then it restarts the exit time causing the panel to reset.
Operating a keyswitch zone type during the pre-warn period of an autoset will start a Force Set. If you then
activate the switch again (i.e. unset (disarmed) with keyswitch) before the panel sets, the pre-warn
continues on the autoset.
NOTE: When the keyswitch is activated the second time to take panel back into pre-warn, it can be up to 10
seconds before the pre-warn tones at the keypad start up again.
If the system is set, operating a Keyswitch immediately unsets (disarms) the assigned groups; there is no
entry time countdown.
The Part attribute of the Keyswitch function defaults to 0 (disabled); the standard Keyswitch function
full sets the system. To part set/arm the system using the Keyswitch, the Part attribute must be enabled.
NOTE: The operation of a Keyswitch zone can be extended to the setting (arming) and unsetting (disarming) of
multiple groups by pressing the * key when assigning a group to the zone. Refer to the Star * Group
Function.
The standard programming of the Keyswitch function requires a momentary change from 1kΩ to 2kΩ to
both set (armed) and unset (disarm) the system. If the Keyswitch connected has a latching mechanism,
press the * key when assigning the function; the display indicates 09=KEYSWITCH has been assigned. The
* Keyswitch operation is as follows: 1kΩ to 2kΩ sets the system; 2kΩ to 1kΩ unset (disarms) the system.
The Keyswitch function can also be programmed to reset alarms - refer to option 51.14 =
PARAMETERS.Keyswitch Level. If the Keyswitch is assigned a sufficient type to reset the alarm
condition, the alarm is cancelled and immediately reset when the Keyswitch is used to unset (disarm) the
system following an alarm activation.
NOTE: The activated zones are not displayed on the keypad when a Keyswitch is used to reset/disarm the
alarm.
10 Secure Final {Not for UL installations}
This zone has dual functionality depending on whether the system is set (armed) or unset (disarmed). When
the system is setting (arming), set (armed) or unsetting (disarming) the operation is identical to the Final
zone function. When the system is unset (disarmed), the operation is identical to the Security zone function.
Pressing the * key when programming a Secure Final zone doubles the entry time of the group.
Opening a Secure Final zone during the exit time is reported on the keypad as an open zone; the
Entry/Exit Horns bleep rapidly to indicate that the zone is open.
The termination feature of a Secure Final zone can be extended to terminate the setting (arming) of
multiple groups by pressing the * key when assigning a group to the zone. Refer to the Star * Group
Function.
11 Part Final {Not for UL installations}
This zone has dual functionality depending on whether the system is full set (full armed) or part set (part
armed). When the system is full set the zone operation is identical to the Final zone function. When the
system is part set the zone operation is identical to the Intruder zone function.
