Zone Programming

Zones 1-8 are enabled by default. Disable unused zones or enable additional zones in Section [001] Zone 1–8
definitions describe how each of the zones you use will operate. Program a two-digit code describing the zone definition. Select a defi-
nition from the list below.
In addition, each zone has 16 different attributes which may be programmed in Sections [101]-[108] Zone Attributes. (See also pro-
gramming descriptions Section [101]-[108] Zone Attributes)

[001] Zone Definitions

[00] Null Zone
This zone type should be programmed if an input is not going to be used. Programming this zone type should clear any trouble condi-
tions present on the zone input. An EOL resistor is not required for this zone definition.
[01] Delay 1
This zone type, normally used for entry/exit doors, can be violated and restored during the exit delay time without causing an alarm.
After the exit delay has expired and the system is armed, violating this zone shall start the entry delay 1 timer. During the entry delay
time, the keypad buzzer will sound steadily to advise the user that the system should be disarmed. If the panel is disarmed before the
entry time expires, no alarm will be generated.
[02] Delay 2 Zone
This zone type operates the similar to the delay 1 zone; however, it follows a different entry delay timer, defined as Entry Delay 2 in
Section [005] System Times. Typically this zone type is used for garage doors or for entry/exit points that require a different delay time
than what is being used for the main entry/exit point. The Delay 2 entry delay time can be set independently of Delay 1 in programming
Section [005] (System Times).
[03] Instant Zone
This zone type causes an instant alarm if it is violated when the panel is armed; it does not provide an entry delay when violated while
armed. This zone type does not generate an alarm when disarmed. Typically, this zone is used for windows, patio doors or other perim-
eter zones, and glass break detectors.
[04] Interior Zone
Interior zones have an exit delay and an entry delay if a delay zone has been violated first. The zone goes into alarm when the entry
delay of the delay type zone has expired if the system has not been disarmed. If the zone is violated without an entry or exit delay being
active on the system, an immediate alarm is generated. This zone will not cause an alarm if violated during the entry delay. If the zone
is violated before the entry delay has begun, it will cause an instant alarm. Typically, this zone is used for interior protection devices,
such as motion detectors.
[05] Interior Stay/Away Zone
If the system is stay armed, this zone is bypassed. If the system is armed in away or night mode, the zone acts like an Interior Zone type [04].
[06] Delay Stay/Away Zone
If the system is stay armed, this zone is bypassed. If the system is armed in away or night mode, this zone acts like a Delay 1 type [01].
[07] Delayed 24-hr Fire Zone
Note: Do not wire Fire zones on keypad zone terminals if the DEOL supervision option is enabled for the panel (Section [013], Option [2]).
This zone type requires a SEOL resistor, and it cannot be reconfigured using the NC, EOL or DEOL options in the panel. The alarm
state is short, the restored state is 5k6, and an open condition will generate a zone tamper and fire trouble. When this zone is violated,
the alarm output will be immediately activated (pre-alert) but the communicator will be delayed for 30 seconds. If the alarm is acknowl-
edged by pressing any key during this delay or by tripping a keyswitch zone, the alarm output and the communicator will be delayed an
additional 90 seconds, giving the user time to correct the problem. If the zone is still violated after the 90 second delay, the sequence
will repeat.
If the user does not press a key during the 30 second pre-alert, the alarm output will latch and the panel will communicate the alarm to
the central station. The alarm will sound until the Bell Cutoff time expires ([005] System Times) or until a code is entered.
Note: If a second Fire type zone is violated or if the Fire keys are pressed during the delay period, the panel will latch the alarm output
and will immediately communicate the alarm.
A violated Fire zone will be displayed on all keypads and can be delayed at any keypad. Typically this zone is used for latching smoke
detectors.
2
This feature operates similarly to the stay arming function key except for the following:
When this function key is pressed, no acknowledgement beeps are sounded, there is no exit
delay; and the system arms immediately. The panel logs "Armed in Stay Mode" for this clos-
ing type. If no stay/away zone types are programmed, the system arms in Away mode with no
exit delay.
Note: This function key must not be used in CP-01 listed systems.
