Shunt Groups

A shunt group is a collection of zones that can be "shunted". "Shunting" is
another way of preventing a zone from causing an alarm. The difference
between shunting and omitting a zone is in the length of time that the
control unit ignores the zone. When you omit a zone then the control unit
ignores it for one setting/unsetting cycle. When you shunt a zone the
control unit ignores it until you "unshunt" (or "restore") the zone.
The installer sets up shunt groups by programming the control unit. A
single shunt group can hold one or many zones. A zone can be in several
shunt groups at once. You should agree with the installer what zones need
to go into each shunt group, and record that information. Once the shunt
groups are prepared then there are four ways of shunting them:
a) Any Master User can select any shunt group from the keypad and
activate it.
b) An Admin User can activate any shunt group in the same ward as the
Admin User.
c) A Master User can create a special "shunt code" and link it to any set of
shunt groups.
d) The installer can fit a key switch to a special zone, and link the zone to
one or more shunt groups. Turning the key activates the shunt groups.
Turning the key again restores them.
When a user tries to set the system or a ward where zones are shunted
then the keypad display shows the message "Shunt Active tick to continue".
Once the user acknowledges the message by pressing tick the system
continues to set.
