Introduction And Overview; System Arming; Entry/Exit Delay; Zones - Response SL3 Installation And Operating Manual

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

SYSTEM ARMING

The system has a 'Full Arm' and a 'Part-Arm' facility.
Full Arm will arm all zones while the 'Part-Arm' mode
will only arm the zones that are selected and enabled
for "Part-Arm".
For example:
The system could be configured so that during night
time, 'Part-Arm' would arm only zones protecting the
lower floor and outbuildings leaving the upper floor
free for movement without triggering the alarm.
However, when the property is left unoccupied, the
'Full Arm' mode will arm all zones to protect the entire
property, (i.e. upper and lower floors and outbuildings).

ENTRY/EXIT DELAY

Each zone can be programmed to be Armed in either
Instant or Delay mode.
Usually the zone covering the main entrance door
and the route to and from the Control Panel would be
configured to Delay mode. This allows time for the
user to exit the property after setting the system at
the Control Panel or to Disarm the system before the
alarm triggers when re-entering the property. The
remaining zones would be configured as Instant
allowing them to sound the alarm immediately a
detector on a zone is triggered.
Delay Armed zones will not become fully armed
until after the Entry/Exit delay period has ended.
When a detector on a Delay Armed zone is
triggered, an alarm condition will not be triggered
until after the Entry/Exit period has ended. If the
system is not disarmed during the delay period,
the alarm will sound when the delay period expires.
Instant Armed zones are immediately able to initiate
an alarm as soon as the system begins to arm.
Note: To conserve power and maximise battery life
the PIR Detector will only detect movement if there
has been no movement detected within the previous
2 minutes. Consequently the PIR Detector will not
become active until the protected area has been free
from movement for at least 3 minutes.

ZONES

The system incorporates 6 wireless intruder zones for
the connection of the detectors used to independently
monitor different areas of the property and 1 dedicated
Fire zone. In addition to standard intruder protection,
each zone can also be configured to operate in
alternative modes.
For example:
– 'Fire' mode provides 24 hour monitoring of any
Fire/Smoke detectors incorporated into the system.

ZONE LOCKOUT

If a detector on an active zone is triggered while the
system is armed, the alarm will sound. After the
programmed alarm duration has ended, the alarm
will stop and the system will automatically reset.
Subsequent detectors triggered will again trigger an
alarm. If a single zone triggers an alarm more than
3 times then that zone will become 'Locked Out' and
any further alarm signals from that zone will be
ignored until the system is disarmed.
Note: The 'Zone Lockout' feature can be disabled if
required (see page 27).

TAMPER PROTECTION

All system devices (except any Remote Control
Units) incorporate Tamper protection features to
protect against unauthorised attempts to interfere
with the device.
Any attempt to remove the battery cover from any
device (except a Remote Control) or to remove the
Solar Siren or Control Panel from the wall will trigger
