General Information
This control supports features that help minimize false alarms. Most false alarms occur
upon exiting the premises, either due to environmental factors or because the zone's
resistance to the control may be on the edge of acceptability. We call this condition a
"swinger."
Features that prevent false alarms due to these circumstances are:
•
Exit Error Logic and related reports.
•
Exit Delay Reset.
•
Cross-Zoning.
Exit Error Logic and Related Reports
U L
This feature is not suitable for use on a UL commercial burglary installation.
This feature is intended to reduce the incidence of false alarms due to exit doors that are left
open after the exit delay has expired. If this feature is enabled in program field 1 20, the
following will occur.
At the end of the exit delay, if a door is left open or an interior zone is faulted, the system
will start the entry delay period, and will sound the bell(s), siren(s), and keypad sounders for
the duration of entry delay. This gives the user time to re-enter the premises and disarm the
system before exit error occurs.
If the user does not re-enter the premises and disarm the system, the system will bypass the
faulted entry/exit and/or interior zone(s). The rest of the system will be armed. In addition,
the following Dialer reports will be sent to the central station if programmed:
•
Exit Error by User (not sent if using ADEMCO High Speed format).
•
Exit Error by Zone (Sent as regular alarm if using ADEMCO High Speed format).
•
Bypass report.
