52 - Zones (cont'd)
2 = Descriptor
Each zone can be assigned with an alpha-numeric description of up to 16 characters (see Table 14, Zone
Text Characters). The descriptor is assembled from the character set in this table. On selecting the
Descriptor attribute, the currently assigned descriptor (blank by default) is displayed on the top line. The
message Press # to del is displayed on the bottom line. Each of the keys on the keypad, when pressed,
offers a choice of character on the bottom line. Press the key repeatedly to choose a character. A four-second
delay accepts the character and the flashing cursor moves on.
Press the # or <B key to erase the characters already assigned to the descriptor.
Press the or ent key to save the text and exit.
3 = Soak Test
Soak test. This option allows the zone to be placed in a test mode for the programmed number of days (maxi-
mum 14). If the zone is activated when it would normally have caused an alarm, then a soak event is recorded
in the log and no alarm is generated. The soak test days will be reset to the start. If no activations occur each
day, then the number of days are decreased by one, each day at midnight. If the counter reaches 0 days, then
the zone is reinstated fully into the system and normal alarm operation is resumed.
4 = Omit Enable
If the omit attribute is set to 1 = Enabled, a user with the appropriate authorization can manually omit a zone
from the system. It has no bearing on the force omit for re-arm/re-instatement. Manually omitted zones are
omitted for one set period only.
