Paragraphs 7.3-7.17 include User Settings instructions,
step-by-step. However, if you want to get an overall view of
the entire User Settings menu, refer to figure 8 - User
Setting flow-chart. You can use the flow chart as your only
guide along the user settings process, instead of going
through the step-by-step instructions.

7.3 Bypassing Zones

(Not to be used in UL- listed systems)
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.
