System Layout Worksheets As with any security system, you should first define the installation. This includes determining how many partitions will be used, how many zones per partition, and how many users per partition. You will also need to determine what peripheral devices will be needed, and basic system options such as exit/entry delays, etc. The control panel itself should be located in an area that will facilitate wire runs to all partitions, and will allow access to power and telephone circuits.
