Zone alarm confirmation
Zone confirmation is an alarm coincidence configuration method designed to
reduce nuisance alarms. A first alarm event places the zone and the control
panel into alert status. Full alarm status is not confirmed until a second alarm is
reported in the same zone or in a configured area. See āArea configurationā on
page 107 for more information on areas.
Zone alarm confirmation types and descriptions are shown below.
