2.12 Siren Behavior

☺
Continuously ON when initiated by a burglar zone or a
24-hour zone, and when a user initiates a "panic alarm".
ON - ON - ON - pause - ON - ON - ON - pause - ........ and
so on when initiated by a fire zone (smoke is detected).
If there is nobody around to disarm the system upon alarm
and a zone remains "open", the siren will sound for the
time duration set by the installer - then will stop for 30
seconds - then will re-sound for the same period of time.
These siren cycles will repeat up to the maximum number
of cycles permitted by the installer ("swinger shutdown").
The open zone will then be disabled and the siren will stop.
A zone disabled by "swinger shutdown" is re-enabled 24
hours after disabling, or sooner upon arming/disarming
(depending on the system's state when the alarm occurred).
