Option 12 – Timed Set (Arm)
This option, when entered, starts the setting (arming) routine. The Entry/Exit Horns emit the expiry
warning using the programmed exit time (0-300 seconds). The system sets at the end of the exit time or
earlier if a Final Zone is opened and closed, key 0 is pressed — if programmed as an exit terminator — or if
a push-set terminator is operated. The option displays the time remaining until the system sets or the
number of open zones preventing the system from setting (arming). Opening a zone during the exit routine
resets the exit timer. Pressing the esc key prior to the system setting aborts the setting routine.
NOTE: The factory default setting allows the timed setting (arming) routine to be initiated by entering a valid
type 2.3 (or above) user code and pressing the A> key. By default the A> key is assigned the function
Timed Set (Arm). The A> key can be reprogrammed by the engineer to perform another function, or to
start the setting (arming) routine without a code being entered.
Option 13 – Part Set (Part Arm)
This option operates exactly as the Timed Set option with the exception that only those zones that have the
part attribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES) are set (armed). All zones have the part
attribute enabled by default. Therefore selecting PART SET from the factory will set (arm) all zones. The
part attribute of the zones must be disabled if they are not to be included in the part set.
NOTE: The factory default setting allows the part setting routine to be initiated by entering a valid type 2.3 (or
above) user code and pressing the <B key. By default the <B key is assigned the function Part Set (Arm).
The <B key can be reprogrammed by the engineer to perform another function, or to start the part setting
routine without a code being entered.
Option 14 – Forced set (Forced bypass) [Quick Menu Option 1]
Forced set (Forced bypass) allows a timed set (arming) of the system when there are zones that are
open at the point of selecting the option. The open zones must have the omit attribute enabled (refer to
option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES). This option is only available if the Forced parameter (option 51.26) is
enabled; otherwise, the selection is invalid and the keypad displays the message Option not available.
When the Forced set (Forced bypass) option is entered, the keypad displays the number of zones that
have been omitted (manually by option 11 = OMIT ZONES and automatically by the Forced set (Forced
bypass)) and the setting (arming) routine begins. If there are any open zones that do not have the omit
attribute enabled, the keypad displays the number of open zones that are not omittable and prompts the
user to view them. The non-omittable zones must be closed before the setting routine can continue.
Option 15 – Chime [Quick Menu Option 2]
The Chime option allows the user to switch the chime facility on and off. Any zones that have the chime
attribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES) momentarily operate Entry/Exit Horns when
opened; 2 long tones are emitted.
Option 16 – Instant Set (Instant Arm)
Selecting this option immediately sets (arms) all zones. No sounder or exit time is involved.
NOTE: The zones must be closed to allow the system to set. If any zones are open, then the exit time reset
feature (detailed previously) is activated.
Option 17 – Silent Part
Selecting this option sets (arms) all zones that have the part attribute enabled. It starts a normal timed exit
procedure but exit sounders are not activated. In the event of an alarm occurring during a Silent Part set
(arming) (e.g. fire alarm), normal operation will be re-instated. When group mode is enabled (Menu option
63.1), setting (arming) of a group using Silent Part set will not affect the operation of any of the other group
setting options.
NOTE: The zones must be closed to allow the system to silent set (arm). If any zones are open, then the Exit
Time Reset feature (detailed previously) is activated. Unsetting (disarming) from Menu option 17 will still
give a double beep.
