Will not affect the system in any way.
An instant zone shows not ready when disarmed and goes immediately in to
alarm when faulted while armed.
A controlled zone, that is bypassed during exit and starts entry time 1, when
violated when the system is armed. If the system is not disarmed at before the
end of entry time, an alarm is generated.
Same as Type 2 except uses the entry 2 time.
Upon arming, this zone begins system exit delay and will cause an alarm if
faulted when exit delay ends. With system armed, faulting an entry delay zone
causes "interior" zones to begin the respective entry delay (depending on the
entry zone faulted), during which time the zone can be faulted. Interior zones
cause immediate alarms if faulted without an entry zone being activated first
(while the system is armed).
When faulted, causes trouble condition (keypad sounder will pulse, displays "Not
Ready," and the trouble report will be sent if the zone is not restored after 15
seconds) when disarmed, or an alarm while armed.
Used to arm/disarm the control by momentary, non-latching switch.
Zone's status (fault/normal) determines activation of associated momentary
trigger (e.g. button can activate a trigger). See trigger programming in submode 1,
Questions 37-48 to enable appropriate trigger/relay using relay type 1C
(momentary minutes) or 1D (momentary seconds).
Produces a trouble condition. Keypad sounder will pulse if enabled (L3), keypad
will display "trouble," and the zone report code will be sent if the zone is not
restored after 15 seconds.
Activates burg bell on any faulted condition. If zone is off-normal after alarm
memory is cleared, the alarm is converted to a trouble display.
24-hour zone that causes an alarm with the burg bell on short and a trouble
condition on an open (keypad sounder will pulse, displays "Not Ready," and the
trouble report will be sent if the zone is not restored after 15 seconds). Must be
EOL to derive trouble condition. Dialer sends zone alarm code for short and
trouble code for open.
Fire zone that works like a 24-hour alarm zone but uses the fire bell.
Intended for a 4-wire smoke detector connected to the smoke power terminals. A
short produces a temporal fire bell and an open produces a zone trouble. Must be
EOL to report the trouble condition.
Verification process: Verification will not occur if any fire zone in the system is
already in alarm. Upon detection of a short, power is removed from the smoke
detector power terminals for 8 seconds. After restoring power, the system waits
another 4 seconds then tests the zone again. If a short still exists, an alarm occurs.
Fire Trouble: Fire trouble can occur two different ways. The first way is for the
loop to open. The second way is if the loop is still shorted after a fire alarm has
been silenced and the user clears alarm memory. The alarm is changed to a
trouble. No trouble is reported to the CS at this time (serves as a reminder to let
the end user know the zone is not active). On clearing alarm memory, if a fire
verification zone is still shorted the verification process is repeated about every 4
minutes to try to reset the smoke detector. A tamper on a fire zone results in a
trouble, not alarm.
