will cause a full alarm if opened in any mode. This attribute can only be
assigned to the ALARM zone type. Generates a FULL Alarm in UNSET, SET
and PARTSET modes.
NOTE: The 24 Hour attribute overrides the settings of any of the other
attributes for a particular alarm zone.
When the 'Local' attribute is set, an alarm generated by a zone opening will
not result in the external reporting of the event. The 'Local' attribute is valid for
Alarm, E/Exit, Fire, Fire Exit and Medic zone types.
When this attribute is set, an alarm generated by the zone opening when the
area is fullset or partset will be reported in the usual way. However, if the area
is unset there will be only a local alarm i.e keypad buzzer, LED flash and zone
display. This attribute is only applicable to Alarm, Fire and Seismic zones.
Use this attribute to deal with troublesome detectors. (i.e. some detectors may
generate activation signals spuriously, thereby inadvertently trigger alarms on
the system).
If the same double knock zone activates twice during the double knock
period, then an alarm is generated. Double knock time is set in seconds (see
page [➙ 230]). Two open actions within that time period will generate an
alarm. All open double knock zones are logged when the system is armed.
When the 'Chime' attribute is set for a zone, any opening of the zone during
the Unset mode will cause the internal buzzers to activate for a short period (2
seconds approx.).
The Chime attribute is valid for Alarm, Entry/Exit, and Tech. zones types.
When the 'Inhibit' attribute is set, a user may inhibit this zone. The inhibit
operation will disable that fault or zone for one setting period only.
When the 'Normal Open' attribute is set, the system expects that a connected
detector/sensor is a Normally Open device. (i.e. a sensor is deemed to be
activated whenever the contacts are closed on the device ).
If the 'Silent' attribute is set then there will be no audio or visual indications of
the Alarm. The alarm activation will be sent to the Receiver station. If the
system is unset then a warning message is shown on the display.
If this attribute is set then all zone state changes are logged.
If set then zone will be indicated if open during setting.
This attribute only applies to Remote Maintenance*. If this attribute is set for a
zone, the zone must open for remote service purposes within the defined
frequent time period.
The End Of Line (EOL) attribute provides a number of input zone wiring
configurations on the system.
The Analysed Attribute must be set for a zone if that zone is wired with an
inertia sensor. The Pulse count and Gross attack values should be
programmed for each inertia sensor on the system in accordance with the
results of a simple calibration of the device.

The Final Exit attribute can only be assigned to an Entry/Exit Zone type. Use
this attribute to override the standard process of counting down the exit timer
whenever the system is full set. When all other entry/exit routes in the
premises are closed, fullset the system and close the final exit/entry zone. As
soon as the door is closed the Final Exit time will count down to setting the
system.
A zone with the shunt attribute set will be inhibited whenever a shunt type
zone is opened. This provides a mechanism to group the inhibition of zones
with the opening of the shunt zone type.
This attribute only applies to the FIRE zone type. If this attribute is set, then
activation of the fire zone will only report the activation to the central station.
No alarms will be generated on site.
