AlphaVision ML User manual Rev. 2.60 – 01-01-2015 12
Total arming
The AlphaVision ML control panel is normally armed by entering a valid user code and depending on the
code level, by pressing <*> or <#>. Besides this way, the AlphaVision ML can also has two quick arming keys
for Total and Partial arming. Your installer can program which sections are armed with Partial and which
sections are armed with Total arming. For Total arming, press the key. If programmed, the system will
now ask to enter a valid user code. When the system is Total armed, the corresponding section LED’s 1 to 4
will turn on to indicate the armed state.
Partial arming
The shortcut key for Partial arming can be used for quick Partial arming. If programmed, the system
will ask to enter a valid user code. When the system is Partial armed, the corresponding section LED’s 1 to 4
will turn on to indicate the armed state.
Disarming
The AlphaVision ML control panel can also be disarmed with a shortcut key. To disarm the system, press the
key. When disarming, the system will always ask for a valid user code. Enter a 6-digit valid user code to
disarm.
Switching from Partial to Total arming
When the AlphaVision ML is Partial armed with the shortcut key, the key can be used to arm the
system to its Total state. If programmed, the system will ask for a valid user code.
Stop exit delay when disarming
When the AlphaVision ML has been expanded with a wireless receiver module and the system is armed with
a keyfob transmitter, the AUX button can be used for Direct arming. When the AUX button on the keyfob
transmitter has been programmed for “direct arming”, pressing it within 5 seconds after arming will cause
the exit delay to be cancelled and the system is armed immediately.
Entry/Exit mode
From software V2.0 and higher your installer can program the AlphaVision ML to be compliant with the new
EN50131 guidelines to reduce false alarms. If the programming option 'EN50131’ is selected then the
following functionality applies:
If during the exit delay an instant or 24-hour zone is activated then the arming procedure is aborted.
This is indicated by sounding 10 short acoustic signals via the LS (loudspeaker) output. Also, a
message (SIA code NCI) is transmitted to the central station to indicate that the arming was
aborted.
If during the entry delay an instant or 24-hour zone is activated the installed sounders and strobe
lights are activated immediately but the alarm will be reported to the central station at least 30
seconds later and always after the expiry of the entry delay time. If the system is disarmed before
the end of the total time (at least 30 seconds and always after expiry of the entry delay) then no
alarm will be transmitted to the monitoring station.
Quick arming
The installer can program the AlphaVision ML in such a way that no user code is required when arming with
the shortcut keys for Partial and Total arming. When programmed, the user codes are only required for
disarming the system.
Bear in mind that Quick arming also comes with a risk: when no user codes are required for Total and Partial
arming, everybody can arm the system, regardless of the authorization level of the users.
