5.1.2 Input Description?
2 text labels can be associated to each input:
Zone Location: Here should be written the meaning of the zone/input. There are 14 characters
available for this label.
Example: Zone Number = Zone 01; Zone Name = Living Room. In case there has been a tamper
alarm on a zone/input the SMS alarms will show: 'Zone 01, Living Room, Tamper Alarm'. On the
display will be shown: 01-Living Room, Tamper on Zone. Meaning: Tamper alarm on Zone 01 that is
the Living Room.
Enter Number: Best practice is to write the Zone/Input Number (Zone 01, Zone 02 and so on) on this
label. This label will be shown in the event log, following alarms, and reported in the SMS alarms as a
reference point. There are only 7 characters available for this label.
Manually Bypassing Zone/Inputs Procedure
Method 1: Whilst the system is arming, press the
Method 2: Enter user menu and from the "Bypass Zones" option bypass the zones/inputs as required.
Automatic Bypassing Zones/Inputs Procedure
Zones may be automatically bypassed when the panel auto re-arms if this option is enabled in the
system options.
PCX 46 Programming Reference
If enabled, an alarm will be generated if this input is triggered twice within
the pre-programmed time window or if the input remains active for that
period. The double knock option does not work on Follow input type.
Alarm will only be generated if 2 inputs one next to the other with
Combined Input attribute have been activated at the same time. This option
is very useful for setting up out door perimeter protection.
Both wired and wireless inputs are normally set to Normally Closed. This
attribute allows setting up the input as a Normally Open.
The panel will not arm if the user does not activate each detector with this
attribute after starting the arming timer. This is a way to prevent arming
the system with masked or faulty detectors.
This attribute works in conjunction with the NAT (Non Activity) timer. If a
detector has not been activated in during the NAT time the NAT output if
programmed will be activated. An event will be registered in the log too.
Forces a log entry when the input is opened or closed, even when an alarm
does not result. May be selected to apply when a system is armed, when
disarmed, or always.
This attribute limits the number of times that a zone/input can signal an
event. For example if a window is left open and keeps swinging in the wind
you could set it to only signal an event up to 10 times. This limit attribute
will be reset for the associated zone/input, if another zone/input on the
system activates after this limit has been reached.
If this function is enabled, all inputs will operate as "inertia". Please note
that only PCX-RIX8i input expanders can be used with this function. Inertia
operates by determining the gross attack and pulse count of the force. For
example:
Gross Attack = 4 m/s. Pulse Count = 3. The input will activate after sensing
3 "knocks" near the area where the shock is installed (each pulse is kept in
memory for 15 seconds).
