PCX 256 PROGRAMMING MANUAL
Enter the input number to monitor the chosen
door. Please note that this must be selected for
the door monitoring to function.
Entering '999' disables the monitoring for this
door.
To enter a personal name for the access control,
press the key. Use the text programming to
enter this, see page: 10.
Press the key, you will be returned to the
engineer menu.
Door Monitoring Facility
If the door is to be monitored by the alarm system only, the door monitoring input should be wired
direct to the end station (not via the door station) and programmed appropriately (see table below).
If the door is to be monitored by the door station only (providing local alarm), the door monitoring
input should be programmed as omitted in 'Change Inputs' menu. The 'Door Contact No.' should
be an input number that is unused on the system.
If the door is to be monitored by the door station and the end station, the door monitoring input
should be programmed in the 'Change Inputs' menu (see table below). The 'Door Contact No.'
should correspond to this input.
Input Type
Final Exit
Switcher
All other types
NOTES: If input is programmed as 'isolated' then monitoring will be SOLELY at the door station. If
the input is to be monitored by the alarm system ONLY, it should be wired directly to the system,
and NOT via the door station.
Access User Codes/Tags
To program any user codes and tags for the Access Control system you will need to enter the
master manager menu and select 'Change Codes', then 'Change User Codes'. Enter a user code
in the normal way, when the system recognises an Access Control unit attached, a new option
called 'S/Part Access' will be displayed in this function, here you must select the address of the
Access Control unit that you would like the user codes to operate on. Please see the user manual
for more information.

5.7.6 Sub Partitions

This feature provides a degree of independent control so that in many systems it may be used as a
separate partition. Control is by means of a dedicated Set/Unset Tag Reader located OUTSIDE the
sub-partition. No entry/exit route is available. The number of sub-partitions available is limited to
the number of setting points not otherwise allocated as keypads, set/unset readers or access
control or guard tour points. The maximum sub-partitions are 29.
Each sub-partition may consist of any number of 'intruder' inputs, all of which must be allocated to
the same area. No input may be allocated to more than one sub-partition.
Operation may be by proximity tag, or by key (or other) switch wired into the first input on the tag
reader. Sub-partitions using switch operation MUST be those on which the inputs are live (i.e.
shown in the table on the next page).
Tags for sub-partition control are programmed through the Manager menu.
