Exit Mode; Piezo Beeps; Trouble Beeps; Panic Alarm - Visonic PowerMaxExpress Installer's Manual

4.4.9 Exit Mode

(Fig. 4.4, location 09). Here you determine exit mode
options. Three types of exit modes are available:
Restart Exit - 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 he left
behind.
Off by door - When the door is closed, the exit delay is
automatically terminated (even if the defined exit delay
was not completed).
Normal - The exit delay is exactly as defined, regardless
of whether the door is open or closed.
Restart + Arm Home - Exit delay restarts when the door
is reopened during exit delay. In the case that no door was
opened during exit delay "AWAY", the control panel will be
armed "HOME".

4.4.10 Piezo Beeps

Fig. 4.4, location 10). Here you determine whether warning
beeps will sound or muted during exit and entry delays.
Additional options enable muting only the warning beeps
when the system is armed "HOME" or "AWAY". In
addition, during arming home the system arms in silence,
however, once armed, triggering a delay zone will activate
the entry beps prompting the user to disarm the system.
Options (Partition disabled): enable beeps, off when
home, disable beeps, and off exit home.
Options (Partition enabled):
home, d (disable beeps) and h (off exit home). The
pushbuttons ,
the corresponding partitions. Pressing each button
repeatedly will toggle between each option.
Note: When exit beeps are disabled toward the end of a
delay, the happy (success) melody will sound.

4.4.11 Trouble Beeps

(Fig. 4.4, location 11). Under trouble conditions, the
sounder emits a series of 3 short beeps once per minute.
Here you determine whether this special beeping
sequence will be active, inactive, or just inactive at night
(the range of "night" hours is defined in the factory). The 3
options are: enable beeps, off at night (8 PM through 7
AM) and disable beeps.

4.4.12 Panic Alarm

(Fig. 4.4, location 12). Here you determine whether the
user will be allowed to initiate a panic alarm by
simultaneous pressing either the two panic buttons (on the
keypad / wireless commander) or away + home (on a
keyfob transmitter). Audible panic activates the siren and
simultaneously transmits a message via telephone. Silent
panic only transmits a message via telephone. The options
are: silent panic, audible panic and disable panic.

4.4.13 Swinger Stop

(Fig. 4.4, location 13). Here you determine the number of
times each zone is allowed to initiate an alarm within a
single arming/disarming period (including tamper & power
failure events of detectors, PowerMaxExpress, wireless
siren, etc.). If the alarms number from a specific zone
exceeds the programmed number, the control panel
automatically bypasses the zone to prevent recurrent siren
noise and nuisance reporting to the central station. The
zone will be reactivated upon disarming, or 48 hours after
having been bypassed (if the system remains armed).
Available options are: shut after 1, shut after 2, shut
after 3 and no shutdown.

Note: Swinger Stop is defined for the entire alarm system
and not per partition.

4.4.14 Cross Zoning

(Fig. 4.4, location 14). Here you determine whether cross
zoning will be active or inactive. Cross zoning is a method
used to counteract false alarms - an alarm will not be
initiated unless two adjacent zones are violated within a
30-second time limit.
This feature is active only when arming AWAY and only
with zone couples from zone No. 18 to 27 (18 and 19, 20
and 21, etc.). You may use any one of these zone couples
to create a "cross-zoned" area.
Note: If one of two crossed zones is bypassed (see Para.
4.4.8), the remaining zone will function independently.
Note: Every 2 crossed zones must be of the allowed zone
type (Interior, Perimeter, Perimeter follower).
The options are: cross zone ON and cross zone OFF.
Note: A common zone should not be defined as a cross
zone.
Cross zoning is not applicable in Entry/ Exit zones and
24h zones (Fire, Emergency, 24h audible, 24h silent).

4.4.15 Supervision

(Fig. 4.4, location 15). Here you determine the time limit
for reception of supervision
supervised wireless devices. If any device does not report
at least once within the selected time limit, an
"INACTIVITY" alert is initiated.
The options are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 hours and disable.
Note: To comply with EN requirements, 1 or 2 hours must
be selected.

4.4.16 NOT READY

(Fig. 4.4, location 16). Here you determine if the system
will be in NOT READY status when there is a supervision
failure. In the "in supervision" mode, the system will be in
NOT READY status if during the last 20 minutes a
supervision message was not received. Options: normal
and in supervision.
Note: NOT READY operates only per partition (in a
PowerMaxExpress Partition system).
Note: To comply with EN requirements, "in supervision"
must be selected.

4.4.17 AUX Button A

(Fig. 4.4, location 17). Here you select the function of the
AUX button/ button A on keyfob transmitters MCT-234,
MCT-237 and wireless commanders MCM-140+. Two
options are offered for each AUX button:
Instant: Pressing the AUX button while the exit delay is in
progress will cause the system to arm "instant" (the entry
delay is canceled).
Skip exit delay: Pressing the AUX button will immediately
cause the system to arm immediately.

4.4.18 AUX Button B 2-W-KF

(Fig. 4.4, loc. 18). Applicable only for 2-way keyfob
MCT-237. Same as 4.4.17 but for AUX button B.

4.4.19 Jam Detect

(Fig. 4.4, location 19). Here you determine whether
jamming (interfering transmissions, on the radio channel
used by the system) will be detected and reported or not.
If a jam detection option is selected, the system does not
allow arming under the relevant jamming conditions.
