4.4 DEFINING CONTROL PANEL PARAMETERS

4.4.1 Preliminary Guidance

This mode allows you to customize the control panel and
adapt its characteristics and behavior to the requirements
of the particular user. An illustrated process is shown in
Figure 4.4. In this illustration, each selected option is
displayed with a dark box at the right side. To review the
options, repeatedly click
the desired option is displayed, then click SHOW/OK button
4.4.2 Entry Delays 1&2
(Fig. 4.4, location 01, 02). Two different entry delays allow
the user to enter the protected site (while the system is in
the armed state) via 2 specific doors and routes without
causing an alarm.
Following entry, the user must disarm the control panel
before the entry delay expires. Slow-rate warning beeps
start sounding once the door is opened, until the last 10
seconds of the delay, during which the beeping rate
increases. Locations No. 1 (entry delay 1) and 2 (entry
delay 2) allow you to program the length of these delays.
Available options for each delay are: 00s, 15s, 30s, 45s,
60s, 3m and 4m.

4.4.3 Exit Delay

(Fig. 4.4 location 03). An exit delay allows the user to arm
the system and leave the protected site via specific routes
and doors without causing an alarm. Slow-rate warning
beeps start sounding once the arming command has been
given, until the last 10 seconds of the delay, during which
the beeping rate increases. Location No. 3 allows
programming of the exit delay length. Available options
are: 30s, 60s, 90s, 120s, 3m, and 4m.

4.4.4 Bell Time

(Fig. 4.4, location 04). Here you select the length of time
the bell (or siren) is allowed to function upon alarm. The
bell time starts upon activation of the siren. Once the bell
time expires, the siren is automatically shut down.
Available options are: 1, 3, 4, 8, 10, 15 and 20 minutes.
Note: Bell Time is defined for the entire alarm system.
However, when disarming any partition the siren ceases to
sound.

4.4.5 Abort Time

(Fig. 4.4 location 05). Here you select the length of time
allowed by the system to abort an alarm (not applicable to
alarms from FIRE, 24H SILENT, EMERGENCY, GAS and
FLOOD zones). The PowerMax Pro is programmed to
provide an "abort interval" that starts upon detection of an
event. During this interval, the buzzer sounds a warning
.
but the siren remains inactive and the alarm is not
reported. If the user disarms the system within the allowed
abort interval, the alarm is aborted.
Available options are: 00s, 15s, 30s, 45s, 60s, 2m, 3m and
4m.

4.4.6 Alarm Cancel

(Fig. 4.4, location 06). Here you determine the "cancel
alarm" period that starts upon reporting an alarm to the
central station. If the user disarms the system within that
time period, a "cancel alarm" message is sent to the
central station.
Available options are: 1, 5, 15, 60 minutes, 4 hours and
also cancel inactive.

4.4.7 Quick Arm

(Fig. 4.4, location 07). Here you determine whether the
user will be allowed to perform quick arming or not. Once
quick arming is permitted, the control panel does not
request a user code before it arms the system.
The two options are: quick arm ON and quick arm OFF.

4.4.8 Bypass

(Fig. 4.4, location 08). Here you permit either manual
bypassing of individual zones (through the USER
SETTINGS menu), or allow the system to "force arm"
(perform automatic bypassing) of open zones during the
exit delay. If desired, press the arming key twice if you
want to eliminate the delay beeps that continue during a
force arming. If a zone is open and forced arming is not
permitted, "NOT READY" is displayed and the system
does not arm (the "Sad Melody" will sound). If "no bypass"
is selected, neither manual bypassing nor force arming is
allowed.
Options: manual bypass, force arm and no bypass.
