Configuring Secvest "Time Schedules - Abus Secvest User Manual

13.5 Configuring Secvest "time schedules"

Basic procedure: Your alarm panel's time schedule function is especially useful in places which have recurring
routines, for example, a doctor's surgery with regular opening and closing times. A time schedule is used to
automatically arm or disarm the Secvest.
Important: setting up time schedules in private households is generally not necessary and very diffi cult
to implement. Schedules are usually diffi cult to plan as they vary so much from day to day. Consider the
fact, for example, that an open window or similar situation is very problematic with an automated arming
setup.
Arming events
Ten minutes before the programmed event, the alarm panel starts giving an audible warning that the system
is about to be armed via a week planner event ("week planner arming"). The alarm panel also activates all
"automatic arming warning" outputs.
At the end of the warning time for week planner arming, the alarm panel stops the warning tone and
immediately arms the relevant partition(s), deactivates the "automatic arming warning" outputs and
activates all "armed" outputs. The system logs week planner arming events as "automatic system arming"
events along with the relevant partition numbers.
Timed Set
During the warning time for week planner arming, a user can delay the arming process.To do this, you need
to enter your access code in the alarm panel or hold your proximity keyfob up to the alarm panel and select
"Delay".Please note, the user must have authorisation for the partition which is to be armed.
If the timer has been delayed by a user the alarm panel stops the timer and delays all subsequent arming
events for 30 minutes. Aft er 20 minutes the alarm panel starts the ten-minute count down again.
Users can delay a week planner arming event in this way up to three times in total. Aft er the third delay,
the alarm panel is armed. Please note, this delay to the arming process has no eff ect on disarming events.
