4.7. Alarm zones
MultiSensors connected to the AlarmManager and also the inputs of Kentix IO-modules can be assigned to
different alarm zones. With this option a separation into different areas can be realized. Every zone can be
switched to armed or disarmed state and send alarms independent from the other alarm zones.
For the configuration, add the desired number of zones in the alarm zones section of the base settings and
enter a name for every zone. After this assign the sensors to the desired zone.
IMPORTANT!
Also with multiple sensors in one zone an alarm of the type „Armed-Active" can only be reported once for
every zone. After alarming the alarm repetition is activated. If a continuous alarming is desired, the automatic
quitting of alarms can be activated in the advanced settings.
The Quitting (by Software/Web-Interface/SMS/App) of alarms always considers all alarms regardless of the
assigned alarm zone.
4.8. Quitting Alarms
When an Armed-Active or Always-Active alarm is triggered at the AlarmManager, it has to be quit after the
cause has been fixed. This can be done by the Web-Interface, the ControlCenter, via SMS or with the App.
IMPORTANT!
Only when an alarm has been quit, it can be triggered again.
Other following alarms with a different cause from the sensors are still reported without acknowledgement.
The last triggered alarm will be resent every time the set up time for the alarm repetition runs up. With a value of
0 this repetition can be suppressed.
If an existing alarm is quit without the cause being fixed, the AlarmManager stops the alarm repetition. The
alarm state stays active.
Additionally the AlarmManager tries for every 6 hours to quit existing alarms. When the cause has been fixed or
is no longer present, alarming can be stopped this way, but gives the possibility to be re-triggered again.
