Bypass Zones
User Code Level: Master or Standard.
Function: Allows you to bypass a zone prior to arming the system.
Bypassing is usually done when a zone cannot be restored to normal
and you want to arm the system. Once bypassed, the system does
not respond to any activity on the zone.
A zone can be bypassed only while it is disarmed. Since Fire, Panic,
Emergency, and Supervisory zones are always armed, they can
never be bypassed.
The Bypass Zones function can also be used to restore a bypassed
zone back into the system. This can only be done while the zone is
disarmed. Disarming always resets a bypassed zone.
Your system may be pre-programmed at installation to send a bypass
report to your central station when Bypass Zones is selected.
Using the Bypass Zones Function
1. Access the User Menu.
2. Press the COMMAND key until BYPASS ZONES? displays.
3. Press any Select key. The keypad displays ZONE - RST BYPS.
4. To reset a zone, enter the zone number and Select RST.
5. To Bypass a zone, enter the zone number and Select BYPS.
User Menu
Zone Monitor (Chime)
User Code Level: Master or Standard.
Function: Allows the system to monitor selected disarmed zones
(doors, windows, or motion detectors). When a monitored zone
trips, the keypad sounds a chime tone and displays the zone name.
This is an ideal feature for monitoring door zones to tell when
someone comes in or goes out and for system testing.
You can place any combination of disarmed zones in Zone Monitor
but only the most recently tripped zone displays. The displayed
zone name clears automatically after a short time or when the zone
is armed. Zone Monitor does not function while the system is armed
but a zone placed into the Zone Monitor is still monitored when the
system is disarmed.
Using Zone Monitor as part of your weekly system test: After
using the System Test function, place all zones in Zone Monitor.
Starting at the front door, walk around and open and then close
each door and window. You should hear the keypad beep each time.
The keypad also displays the name of each zone as its device is
opened.
Once all protected doors and windows are tested, walk in front of
each motion detector and trip any other protection devices on the
system. The keypad should beep to confirm their operation. If at
any time during your weekly testing a device does not cause the
keypad to beep, call the service department for assistance.
Monitor (Chime) Shortcut Key
All Systems — Press 5 for 2 seconds when the system is disarmed.
This initiates the Zone Monitor operation for all Exit zones in an
Area system or all zones assigned to the perimeter in a Home/
Sleep/Away or All/Perimeter system. The keypad displays MONITOR
ON and chimes or displays MONITOR OFF and no tone is sounded.
