Bypassing Zones; Reviewing The Bypassed Zone List - Visonic POWERMAX User Manual

Figure 7. Moving About in the User Settings Menu
When you reach <OK> TO EXIT, you may click
to quit the USER SETTINGS menu and revert
to the normal operating mode.
When keying digits, clicking <BACK> will move the
cursor one digit to the left (without erasing), clicking
<NEXT> will move it one digit to the right and clicking
<OFF> will delete everything to the right of the cursor.
If you do not press any key for 4 minutes, the system
will automatically quit the USER SETTINGS menu.

7.3 Bypassing Zones

A. General Guidance
You can program the PowerMax to exclude (bypass)
selected zones, regardless of whether these zones are
"functional" (undisturbed) or "open" (disturbed). Bypassing
permits free movement of people within certain zones
although the system is armed. It is also used to temporarily
remove from service faulty zones that require repair work.
Fire zones can not be bypassed.
Remember – zone bypassing compromises security!
Zone bypassing must be carried out while the system is in
the disarmed state.
Note: Zones will be bypassed throughout one disarm-arm
period only. Disarming the system after arming will
suspend the entire bypassing scheme, which can be
recalled later if so desired.
B. Bypassing Procedure
Having entered your user code successfully (see Para.
7.2), the display will read:
S E T B Y P A S S
If at this point you click <SHOW/OK>, the number, state
and name of the first zone will be automatically displayed.
Three states are possible:
• Open: The zone is not secured - you can bypass it if you
do not wish or know how to solve the problem just now.
• Bypassed: The zone is presently bypassed (you
bypassed it before but haven't armed the system yet).
• Functional: If there is nothing wrong with the zone, its
state is described as "Functional".
Let us assume that Zone 1 is "open' and you wish to
bypass it, and the rest of the zones are functional.

(If you wish to

the next zone)
You may now select any other item on the USER
SETTINGS menu or quit programming by clicking
<AWAY>. When <OK> TO EXIT is displayed - click <OK>.
After concluding the bypassing operation, Bypass blinks in
the display:
R E A D Y B Y P A S S
This indication will persist as long as the system remains
disarmed, and will disappear once the system is armed.
Note: Bypass will alternate in the display with other
messages, as the case may be: Trouble, Memory and
Message.
C. "Unbypass" Procedure
Suppose you wish to restore a zone to service after having
completed the bypassing scheme. Simply re-enter the SET
BYPASS menu (see Para. 7.3B above), and click <NEXT>
or <BACK> until the zone you wish to "unbypass" is on
display. Here is an example of the following steps:
Action
Z 2 2 : B y p a s s e d
L i v i n g r o o m
< O F F > T O C L E A R
Z 2 2 : F u n c t i o n a l
L i v i n g r o o m
You may now click <HOME> and then select any other item
on the USER SETTINGS menu, or click <AWAY> to quit
programming. When <OK> TO EXIT appears - click <OK>.
