Program Zones [52]
18 Spare
The Spare function allows any unused zones to be ignored. The resistance readings from the
circuit, including the tamper conditions, do not activate an alarm condition.
Note: We recommend that all unused zones are programmed as Spare and that a 1 k 1%
resistor is connected across each of these zones.
19 Fire
The Fire function is continuously operational. When activated, a Fire zone overrides the Bell
Delay parameter and activates an instant alarm (Bell, Strobe and Fire). The keypad buzzer
and control panel horn output, if fitted, emit an interrupted tone (one second on, 0.5 seconds
off), easily distinguishable from all other alarm conditions. Any valid code entry cancels the
Fire activation.
20 Tamper
The Tamper function is continuously operational. When a Tamper zone is activated (1 k to
2 k ), a tamper alarm is generated. A Tamper Reset authorized code is required to reset the
alarm (refer to Tamper Reset [51.7]). If a tamper condition (open or short circuit) occurs, a
tamper alarm is also generated.
22 Beam Pair
This function is only operational when two consecutively addressed zones, programmed as
Beam Pair, are open in the set condition. Activation is identical to the Intruder function.
The system cannot set if a single Beam Pair is open.
Note: Beam Pair zones must be consecutively addressed. For example, valid Beam Pair
addresses are 1036 and 1037, 1018 and 1031 - in this case, RIO 102 has not been
connected, therefore zone 1031 is the next address to 1018.
23 Battery Low
This function is used to monitor the voltage output of a standby battery connected to a
power supply. The activation (+) and de-activation (–) of Battery Low zones is recorded in
the event log.
24 Line Fail
This function is used to monitor the communication line that a remote signalling device is
connected to for communications failure.
When the system is in the unset state, the first activation of a Line Fail zone causes a local
alarm and the message COMMS FAILURE is displayed, subsequent Line Fail activations
do not sound the local alarm; the only indication is the keypad display.
When the system is set, activation of the Line Fail zone overrides the Bell Delay parameter.
When the system is unset a local alarm is generated and the keypad gives an indication that
a Line Fail zone has activated. If an alarm condition occurs while the Line Fail is active, an
instant full alarm is generated.
