System Sensor Types

Each sensor (wireless or wired) installed in the system is
programmed to a specifi c sensor number and sensor type ( zone).
The sensor number identifi es the specifi c sensor when it is
displayed on the Control Panel, recorded in the event log, or
reported to the Central Station. This allows pin-point information
about any sensor in the system.
The sensor type determines how and when the Control Panel
responds to signals from the sensor. Some sensors are armed
all the time, others are armed only in certain arming levels, some
cause Central Station reports any time they are activated. The
sensor's type, along with other programming options, determine
this.

Sensor Types (Zones)

(00) Unused
This is the setting for unused sensor numbers that do not have a sensor
programmed into them. No system action occurs at any time from this sensor
type.
(01) Exit/Entry 1
This sensor type is reserved for doors that are used for exit and entry of the
protected premises. When the system is armed in the Away Mode or Stay Mode,
the Exit Delay timer starts. There is an Exit Delay regardless of whether the
system is armed in Stay Mode or Away Mode. When the Exit Delay timer expires,
the system is fully armed.
With the system fully armed, when this type of sensor is triggered, the Entry
Delay #1 timer starts. The system must be disarmed before the Entry Delay #1
time expires, or an alarm will occur.
If the Entry Delay is turned off during arming, the exit/entry delay sensors will act
as non-delayed instant sensors at the end of Exit Delay.
(02) Exit/Entry 2
This sensor type operates the same as the Exit/Entry 1 sensor type except it will
start the Entry Delay #2 timer. This provides a method of having a longer Entry
Delay on certain openings, such as a garage door, to provide the user more time
to disarm the system.
(03) Perimeter
This sensor type is for perimeter doors and windows that will not be used to enter
or exit the protected premises while the system is armed.
An instant alarm will occur when this type of sensor is triggered with the system
armed in either the Stay Mode or Away Mode.
(04) Interior Follower
This sensor type is for interior sensors such as motion detectors, mat switches,
interior doors, and other sensors that detect human presence inside the protected
premises.
This type of sensor is called a "follower" due to its action when the system is
armed in the Away Mode. After the Exit Delay expires and the system is armed, if
an interior follower sensor is triggered, an instant alarm will occur. If an exit/entry
delay sensor is triggered fi rst, the interior follower sensor will also be delayed.
Interior follower sensors are always bypassed and not active when the system is
armed in Stay Mode. This allows the premises to be occupied while still protecting
the perimeter.
(05) Day Zone
This sensor type is the same as a perimeter zone, except when the system is
disarmed, a violation displays a trouble alert on the Console's display.
Common uses for this sensor type are protection of sensitive areas that require
notifi cation and possibly a Central Station trouble report, but not an alarm when
the system is disarmed.
18
(06) 24-hour Silent Alarm
This sensor type is active independent of the system arming status. The code
for silent panic is sent to the Central Station, but for safety, there are no visual or
audible indications locally that this sensor type has been triggered.
(07) 24-hour Audible Alarm
This sensor type is continuously armed 24-hours a day. A sensor programmed to
this type will trigger a local alarm and the bell output regardless of the mode the
system is in. Typical use would be an audible panic alarm.
(08) 24-hour Auxiliary Alarm
This sensor type is continuously armed 24-hours a day. A sensor programmed
to this type will trigger an alarm regardless of the mode the system is in. The bell
output will not activate, but the local sounder will continue until it's acknowledged
at the Control Panel. Typical use would be for a monitoring device such as a fl ood
or temperature sensor. There is no timeout for the internal sounder, it will continue
until a User Code is entered.
(09) 24-hour Fire †
This sensor type is continuously armed 24-hours a day. A sensor programmed
to this type will trigger the local alarm fi re sounder and the bell output regardless
of the mode the system is in. Typical use would be for wireless smoke detectors.
This sensor type is always active and cannot be bypassed.
(10) Interior with Delay
This sensor type operates as a delayed sensor when the system is armed in the
Away Mode, and when triggered, will start the Entry Delay #1 timer. If the system
is armed in Away Mode with no Entry Delay (armed instant), this sensor type will
trigger an instant alarm.
If the system is armed in Stay Mode (or Stay Mode with no Entry Delay), this
sensor type will be bypassed.
(14) 24-hour Carbon Monoxide †
This sensor type is continuously armed 24-hours a day. A sensor programmed to
this type will trigger the local alarm pulse sounder and the bell output regardless
of the mode the system is in. Typical use would be for wireless carbon monoxide
detectors. This sensor type is always active and cannot be bypassed.
(16) 24-hour Fire with Verifi cation †
This sensor type is continuously armed 24-hours a day. A sensor programmed to
this type can trigger the local alarm fi re sounder and the bell output regardless
of the mode the system is in. Typical use would be for wireless smoke detectors.
This sensor type is always active and cannot be bypassed.
For verifi cation, this sensor type must be violated twice in two minutes, or remain
violated for 30 seconds. If any other fi re sensor (verifi ed sensor type or not)
violates within two minutes, both sensors will cause a fi re alarm.
(23) No Response Type
This sensor type is a special zone that can be monitored for activity or inactivity
by the Central Station. It does not affect security system status.
(24) Silent Burglary
This sensor type is for silent triggering the burglary alarm with perimeter doors
and windows that will not be used to enter or exit the protected premises while
the system is armed. The Control Panel's sounder and the bell output will not
activate.
An instant silent alarm will occur when this type of sensor is triggered with the
system armed in either the Stay Mode or Away Mode.
† Indicates Sensor types that are not allowed for hardwired
loops.
