Introduction to WP8360
The WP8360 is a wireless alarm system used to detect and alert the occurrence of a variety of
security and safety hazards, including burglary and fire. The WP8360 is governed by a control panel
that is designed to collect data from various sensors that are strategically located within and along
the perimeter of the protected site.
The alarm system can be armed or disarmed by a variety of key-fobs and keypads using special
codes. Proximity tags enable authorised people to enter restricted zones.
In the armed state, the system initiates an alarm upon detection of a disturbance in any one of the
armed zones.
In the disarmed state, the system provides visual information, and initiates an alarm if smoke is
detected or upon disturbance in a 24-hour zone.
The system identifies a wide range of events, including alarms, attempts to tamper with sensors,
and several types of trouble. Events can be reported automatically to monitoring stations, private
telephones, and mobile phones. Events can be reported by SMS and email. Your installer can
determine what type of events will be reported to which destination.
Note: A qualified technician must check the system at least once a year.
WP8060 features include the following:
Multiple arming modes
Away, Home, Away-Instant, Home-Instant, Latchkey, and Bypass
Disarm under duress
If a user is forcibly compelled to disarm the system, they can do so using a duress code that
disarms the system as usual, but also sends a silent alarm to the monitoring station.
System supervision
All wireless peripherals within the protected site send periodic keep alive supervision messages.
If a keep alive message is overdue, the system reports a missing trouble alert.
Battery supervision
The WP8360 continuously monitors the battery condition of the sensors and devices in the
system, and sends a low battery message whenever a battery needs to be replaced within a
maximum of 30 days.
Distress calls
Users can use key-fobs to activate distress calls by pressing two buttons simultaneously.
Access from remote telephones
You can access the WP8360 from a remote telephone and arm or disarm it, or receive status
information.

Disarming the alarm system restores the control panel to the normal standby state. In this state, only fire and 24-hour zones sound an alarm if violated, but a panic alarm can also be initiated.

    • When a siren sounds, it will not stop until all alarmed partitions are disarmed. However, if the siren is active due to an alarm from a common area zone, and one of the partitions assigned to this area disarms the system, the siren will also stop. If the alarm is initiated from a common area but continues with zones that are not assigned to a common area, the siren will not stop until all partitions assigned to the alarmed zones are disarmed.
