What Are Partitions?
The PowerMax includes an optional partition feature.
Partitioning allows you to have up to three independently
controllable areas whereby each can be in the HOME, AWAY
or DISARM state.
Each independent area is called a 'partition' and has its own
defined zones, user codes, etc.
Partitions provide highly flexible control in premises
where multiple areas need to be monitored or secured
independently.
