Types of alarms

The main reason for the security system is to report events to its owner and users or a professional security
agency to inform about threats. It could be intrusion by a burglar but also some environmental effect such as
smoke, fire, gas leakage, flooding in the protected premises. Indication of every type of alarm can be different
according to its cause. For sirens alarms are split into internal (IW) and external (EW). In the following table
is an overview of IW and EW outputs according to the type of alarms and section status:
Section status
Unset
Partially set
Set
All types of system sirens sound with an intermittent tone (optional continuous or intermittent) and outdoor
siren flashing is done by a red or blue light (flasher). Indication length is given by the alarm length time
parameter in the control panel. Every siren has its own settings like alarm length limitation, thanks to this you
can pre-set a shorter time of alarm indication by the external siren than by the internal one. Every alarm (except
silent panic alarm) has a beginning and an end (expiration or cancelling by user) and with the cause of event
it is recorded to the events with a time stamp.
On all system keypads, all alarms (except silent panic alarm) are indicated by red flashing of the backlit
indication button with a continuous acoustic indication. All alarm types (except panic) are limited to a maximum
of 3 alarms from every device. The limiter can be restored by unsetting and setting that specific section
or the service technician entering service mode.

8.5.1 Intrusion alarm

It is a control panel alarm state which can be triggered by detectors with delay or instant reactions (and their
variations) and it is valid for a partially or a fully set system. It is indicated by internal and external sirens
see the table above. The alarm length is given by settings in the control panel system parameters.
When an alarm expires keypads and sirens stop indication. When a user is authorized, it mutes the acoustic
indication of all sirens and keypads but it doesn´t cancel the system alarm state nor it's unsetting. It has to be
performed as a following action by a control segment or the LCD keypad menu.

8.5.2 Tamper alarm

The control panel supervise all devices enrolled to the system regardless of the system status (set / unset).
Most devices have a built-in tamper contact for the detection of opening their cover and tearing from the wall.
An activation triggers a tamper alarm and it is indicated by an internal siren (according to the parameter Siren
IW when tamper triggered) in an unset system, but in a set system by both sirens (internal and external as well)
see table above. A tamper alarm can also be the loss of BUS devices (by short circuit for instance), or by a code
breaking attempt (10x) on the keypad, remotely and via a phone call using DTMF, an SMS message or using
the MyJABLOTRON smart applications (WEB + smartphone).
