4.17 OPERATION MODE

Note: The Operation Mode is applicable only in the UK,
USA and Canada.
This mode allows you to select an operation mode for the
control panel according to compliance standards BS8243,
DD243 and CP01. Pertinent menus are tailored for each
compliance standard.

4.17.1 Select Mode

[Fig 4.17.1]. Define the desired compliance standard
operation mode.
The options are: NORMAL, DD243, BS8243 and CP01.

4.17.2 BS8243 Setup

[Fig 4.17.2)] – British standard
DISARM OPTION [Fig 4.17.2(1)]
Define when it is possible to disarm the system:
anytime/all dev – At any time and by all devices.
entry/DD devs - During entry delay, when the system is
armed AWAY, by using the keyfob or keyprox. Keypads
cannot disarm at all.
entry all devs - During entry delay, when the system is
armed AWAY, by all devices. When not in entry delay by
keyfob or keyprox only.
entry/BS devs – By keypad after the entry delay has
expired and if an alarm occurred in the system. By keyfob
or keyprox at all times.
ENTRY ALARM [Fig 4.17.2(2)]
Define whether the system will report a confirmed alarm
during an entry delay (see CONFIRM ALARM below).
BS8243 – An alarm initiated by another detector during the
entry delay is regarded as a confirmed alarm. An additional
30 seconds delay is added to the entry delay for reporting
the event (does not affect the Abort Time, see section
4.4.5).
BS8243 no cnfrm - The panel will not send any confirmed
alarm once a delay zone has been activated, until the
control panel is disarmed.
DD243 - An alarm initiated by another detector during the
entry delay is not regarded as a confirmed alarm.
normal mode - The control panel will report a confirmed
alarm for the second alarm that is triggered from a different
zone within the confirmation time. There are no alarm
restrictions during entry delay or for the delay zone.
END EXIT MODE [Fig 4.17.2(3)]
Define how the exit delay is terminated or restarted.
fob/timer - By pressing the aux button on the keyfob*, or
when the exit delay has expired, whichever first.
door/fob only - When the door is closed, or by pressing
the aux button on the keyfob*, whichever first.
restart>reentry - Exit delay restarts when the door is
reopened during exit delay. The restart occurs once only.
Restarting the exit delay is helpful if the user re-enters
immediately after going out to retrieve an item that was left
behind.
door/fob/timer - When the door is closed, by pressing the
aux button on the keyfob*, or when the exit delay has
expired, whichever first.
* Only when defined as "skip exit delay" (see section
4.4.17).
KEYFOB/KEYPAD PANIC [Fig 4.17.2(4)]
Define the devices that cannot trigger a panic alarm.
BS8243 – MCT-234 and MCT-237.
DD243 – MCT-234.
all - All devices can trigger a panic alarm
D-303983 PowerMaxComplete Installer's Guide
CONFIRM ALARM [Fig 4.17.2(5)]
Define a specific time period that if 2 successive alarms
occur, the second alarm will be considered as a
confirmed alarm, (see REPORT CNFRM ALARM below).
The options are: in 30 minutes, in 45 minutes, in 60
minutes and in 90 minutes.
CONFIRM PANIC [Fig 4.17.2(6)]
A confirmed panic alarm is reported if one of the following
occurs within the confirmation time:
a) A second panic device is activated.
b) A second panic alarm on the same device is activated.
c) A tamper event is activated (not from the zone / device
that initiated the panic alarm).
The options are: in 4 hours, in 8 hours, in 12 hours,
in 20 hours, in 24 hours and disabled.
RPT CNFM ALRM [Fig 4.17.2(7)]
Define whether the system will report a confirmed alarm.
disable - The system will not report a confirmed alarm.
enable - The system will report a confirmed alarm.
enable + bypass - The system will report a confirmed
alarm and will bypass all alarmed open zones when the
siren ends or when the confirmation timer expires.
ENTRY DELAY 1&2 [Fig 4.17.2(8)&(9)]
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.
The options are: 10s, 15s, 30s, 45s, 60s , 3m and 4m.

4.17.3 DD243 Setup

[Fig 4.17.3)] - British standard
DISARM OPTION [Fig 4.17.3(1)]
Define when it is possible to disarm the system:
anytime/all dev – At any time and by all devices.
entry/DD devs - During entry delay, when the system is
armed AWAY, by using the keyfob or keyprox. Keypads
cannot disarm at all.
entry all devs - During entry delay, when the system is
armed AWAY, by all devices. When not in entry delay by
keyfob or keyprox only.
entry/wl+awy kp – By the control panel when the system
is armed AWAY. By keyfob or keyprox during entry delay
only.
ENTRY ALARM [Fig 4.17.3(2)]
Define whether the system will report a confirmed alarm
during an entry delay (see CONFIRM ALARM below).
DD243 - An alarm initiated by another detector during the
entry delay is not regarded as a confirmed alarm.
normal mode - The control panel will report a confirmed
alarm for the second alarm that is triggered from a different
zone within the confirmation time. There are no alarm
restrictions during entry delay or for the delay zone.
END EXIT MODE [Fig 4.17.3(3)]
Define how the exit delay is terminated or restarted.
fob/timer - By pressing the aux button on the keyfob*, or
when the exit delay has expired, whichever first.
door/fob only - When the door is closed, or by pressing
the aux button on the keyfob*, whichever first.
