Ensure that all keypads and readers are addressed correctly before enabling them in this function.
Please see page 7 on how to address each individual keypad and reader.

5.7.1 Reader Is:

This option will only appear when you program a Reader into the system. You can then select how
you would like the Reader to operate.
Arm Point: This will make the Reader act like a normal keypad (arming/disarming the system etc)
S/Part Control: A reader can be used to create sub-partitions. For example: A keypad may control
a full area, but in the partition you may wish to control certain inputs only.
Access Control: If an access control system is installed then you will need to program the reader
as this type.
Disarm Only: If you wish to use the Reader to disarm the system only, select this type.

5.7.2 Arm Point Arms

An "Arming Point" means that you can program the keypad / reader to arm certain partitions only.
This is used in conjunction with the partitions allocated to a user code.
For example, if a user code is programmed to operate partitions 'A' and 'B', but the keypad / reader
is only programmed to arm Partition 'A', then the system will arm only partition 'A'.

5.7.3 Arm Point Disarms

A "Disarming Point" means that you can program the keypad / reader to disarm certain partitions
only. This is used in conjunction with the partitions allocated to a user code.
For example, if a user code is programmed to operate partitions 'A' and 'B', but the keypad / reader
is only programmed to disarm Partition 'A', then the system will disarm only partition 'A'.

5.7.4 Arm Point In

The keypad needs to be also told which partitions it is operating "in". For example, a keypad may
be only needed to operate in Partition A, but other code users may use the keypad to 'quick arm'
other partitions (such as a cleaner, director, caretaker etc). Therefore if Partitions A and B are
selected in the previous options (Arm point arms and Arm point disarms), but partition A only is
selected in 'Arm point in', then partition B will quick arm once a valid tag/code has been entered.
To program partitions with their programmed timer, then the partitions need to be entered into the
"Arm point in" function.
At default, the PCX 256 will display 'default level', you will then have to select the default
arm level you wish the keypad to operate. Arm point arms, disarms and arm point in is only
used on a partition system. This is selected under the option 'Use Level Arm' in Site
Options.
