V20.2 Updates; Appendix B. Partitioning; B4. Siren - Visonic PM-10 TRIPLE User Manual

Refer to the following changes that supersede the equivalent information in the user guide.
1. Introduction
Screen Saver Mode
For security reasons, it is sometimes required to hide the security system status, by both the LCD screen and
any LED lighting. If the screen saver option is enabled by the installer, when no key is pressed for more than 30
seconds, the display will read "SECURITY SYSTEM" and the LEDs will stop indicating any status.
If you press any key, the normal status display will resume.
Press the fire or emergency key to initiate the fire or emergency alarm.
The installer can configure the system to request a user code before resuming the normal display for additional
security.
The installer can configure the system so that if no key is pressed for more than 30 seconds, the date and time
will appear in the display when a partition is enabled.
5. Reviewing Troubles and Alarm memory
With the version 20.2 update, the text "SECURITY SYSTEM" replaces the "POWERMASTER-10" or
"POWERMASTER-30" text in the Resulting Display illustration and LCD screen.

APPENDIX B. PARTITIONING

B4. Siren

A partition alarms when it receives an event message from an alarmed device assigned to that partition.
Alarmed devices do not affect partitions that they are not assigned to.
Siren Activity
•
For sirens common to all partitions, an alarm from one or more partitions activates the siren.
•
If 'SRN PER PRTN' in the installer menu is set to disable and there is an alarm in any partition, all sirens
will activate.
•
If 'SRN PER PRTN' from the installer menu is set to enable, a siren will activate only if there is an alarm in
its associated partition or partitions.
•
A siren activates exit and entry beeps during the exit and entry delay of its associated partition or partitions.
•
Overlapping siren activations from different partitions do not cause the duration of the siren to be extended.
•
If 'SRN PER PRTN' from the installer menu is set to enable, a siren alarm in a particular partition can be
stopped only if the user that disarms the system has permissions to the partition in question.
•
A siren assigned to common partitions can be disarmed by any user who has permissions to one of the
common partitions.
•
An activated siren will not stop until all associated 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.
•
If there is a siren that is common to two partitions and there is a fire in partition 1 and a burglary in partition
2, the siren will sound FIRE. When partition 1 is disarmed, the siren is deactivated.
