Feature Definitions

ALARM HISTORY
Five seconds after pressing the [0] key, the keypad will annunciate "Freeze Frame" alarm history. The zone LED's will indicate which
zone(s) caused the last alarm, regardless of the number of times the Ranger 8600E has been armed or disarmed since that alarm. It
annunciates by blinking the zone LED(s) that caused the alarm, and lights steady those that were bypassed when that alarm occurred.
The annunciation will continue for 5 seconds. Alarm History is erased when the Ranger 8600E is put into the program mode. A
burglary zone that has been bypassed due to "Swinger Shutdown" will alternate between continuous and blinking.
AUTOMATIC ARMING
The Ranger 8600E can be programmed to Automatically Arm at a predesignated time of day, if it has not already been armed. See
location 202, page 24.
AUTOMATIC BYPASS / INSTANT ARMING
When enabled, the control panel can automatically bypass interior follower zones if an exit is not detected during the delay time, and
delayed zones can be made instant. See location 131 on page 16 of this manual for the different combinations of this feature.
BUILT IN SIREN DRIVER
The Ranger 8600E has a built-in 112db siren driver. When desired, this built-in driver can be easily converted to a 1 amp voltage output
through programming. See location 132, page 16.
CHIME
If so programmed, this feature can be turned on and off by entering the first digit of the Master code. When the system is in the
disarmed state, the opening of selected zones will create a one-second tone through the keypad sounder. This lowest level of security
can be enabled by zone in locations 186-193: Assigning Audible Characteristics For Zones , page 23.
DUAL/SPLIT REPORTING
The Ranger 8600E can be programmed for dual and/or split reporting.
DYNAMIC BATTERY TEST
When enabled in location 203, the 8600E can be programmed to perform a dynamic battery test for a selected duration, at 6:00 AM.
ENTRY-GUARD
This unique low level arming mode has been developed to reduce the most common source of false alarms. When armed in this mode,
the opening of any zones designated as "Entry Guard zones" will initiate the keypad sounder and start a delay (see locations 244-251 &
255) before creating an alarm. This arming mode will encourage system owners to use their system more frequently when the premises
are occupied.
FIRE ALARM VERIFICATION
When enabled in location 143, the Ranger 8600E has the ability to verify a Fire alarm by requiring more than one trip on a smoke
detector before creating an alarm.
FORCE ARMING
When enabled in location 197, the Ranger 8600E can be armed with zones violated, lacking a green "Ready" light on the keypad.
Under this condition, all zones that are not secure at the end of the exit delay will become bypassed. All zones that become secured
before the end of the exit delay will become active in the system.
GROUP BYPASS
Zones can be programmed to bypass as a group when the [U] button is pressed during the exit delay. This feature is enabled in
Locations 244-251: Assigning Special Characteristics For Zones on page 26.
INTERNAL EVENT LOG
Up to 80 events can be stored in memory along with the date and time of the event. These events can later be viewed through
downloading.
KEYSWITCH ARMING
Keyswitch arming/disarming can be accomplished by using the remote arming input on the PC board, and the auxiliary outputs. It is not
necessary to waste a hardwire zone to accommodate Keyswitch arming/disarming.
QUICK ARM FEATURE
The Ranger 8600E has a one button "Quick Arm" code, which can be used to arm the system by pressing one digit at the keypad. The
"Quick Arm" digit is programmed in location 139 on page 16.
