Configuration
Assigning a zone name
Note
It is useful to assign unique zone names so that
if a fault occurs it is easier to identify the affected
detector.
Example: MD stands for motion detector, location:
office01, so detector name is MD-office01
1. Click in the Name text field.
2. Delete the preset name (Zone 01).
3. Assign a unique name for the zone with max.
12 characters.
4. Confirm the new name once the configuration is
complete by selecting Submit.

Selecting the zone type
Note
The preset zone type can be changed here.
Note the description of the zone types in this
section.
A zone is a detector that is taught into the
wireless alarm panel.
Zones can have different attributes.
The detector does not know whether the wireless
alarm panel is armed or disarmed.
For this reason, detectors always send an alarm
to the alarm panel if they register a change.
The alarm is only then analysed in the wireless
alarm panel to determine whether the notification
triggers an alarm response or not.
