Option 4 Is a Permanent Day Zone. The zone with this group # is always going to be a day zone. It will only ever
operate the day alarms an will never be part of the normal Armed zones.
Option 5 Is a Handover Zone. The zone with this group # will have an entry delay (a suitable delay time must
also be programmed for the same group) provided another zone that is NOT programmed as a
handover zone has started an entry delay. If no entry delay is active when this zone is triggered it will act
as an instant zone.
Option 6 Is a Two Trigger Zone. The zone with this group # assigned must be triggered twice within the two
trigger time period (P849E) before it will cause an alarm. Alternatively, two separate zones both with the
two trigger function can alarm once each within the two trigger time period and this will also result in a
alarm. In the case of a reed switch or similar device, if the zone is left unsealed for a period exceeding
the two trigger period this will also cause an alarm.
Option 7 Can Arm if zone is not “Ready”. If the Area/s assigned to this group have the option to NOT arm if a
zone is unsealed (Not Ready) at the time of arming (see P530E, P630E, P730E & P830E option 1) then
this option will allow individual zone groups to still allow arming in this state.
Option 8 Is a Siren Lockout zone. The zone with this group # will operate any programmed outputs when in
alarm but it cannot cause another audible alarm (Lockout) until the area is Disarmed then Armed again.
ZONE GROUP OPTIONS C
Zone Options C
P431E Zone Group #1 Options C Default 1 1 = Send Multiple reports via dialler
P432E Zone Group #2 Options C Default 1 2 = Zone is monitored for Inactivity
P433E Zone Group #3 Options C Default 1 3 = Zone is in Soak-test Mode
P434E Zone Group #4 Options C Default 1 4 = Zone is NC or NO.
P435E Zone Group #5 Options C Default 1 5 = Enable Zone Group PA Alarm message
P436E Zone Group #6 Options C Default 1 6 = Use Canned Zone Group PA Alarm message
P437E Zone Group #7 Options C Default 1 7 = Repeat Zone Group PA Alarm message
P438E Zone Group #8 Options C Default 1 8 = Spare
P439E Zone Group #9 Options C Default 1
P440E Zone Group #10 Options C Default 1
Option 1 Send Multiple reports via Dialler. A zone with this group # will send multiple alarm reports via the
dialler. If this option is off, the zone will only report one alarm per armed cycle.
Option 2 Zone is monitored for Inactivity. A zone with this group # will be monitored for Inactivity. Every time
the zone is triggered during the disarmed state the Inactivity timer for this zone will be reset to zero.
When the area that the zone is assigned to is armed, the inactivity timer is stopped with the current time
saved. On disarming of the area, the inactivity timer for the zone will resume with the value saved when
last armed. If the inactivity time for the zone exceeds the programmed value at address P779E an alarm
will be generated. This option is designed to warn if a zone has not reported to the panel for sometime.
Option 3 Soak Test Zone. A zone with this group # will be put into soak-test mode. In soak test mode the zone
cannot cause a normal alarm but any activity when the system is armed is recorded in the event
memory. This mode is designed to monitor zones without causing an alarm.
Option 4 Zone is NC or NO. This option relates to the hardwired zone 61-64 only. It also only applies when the
type 3 or 4 wiring configuration is used. The default is that the alarm contacts are NC (normally closed)
but if a smoke detector or similar device with NO (normally open) contacts is used the option can be
changed.
Option 5 Enable Local PA message. When this zone group activates, it is possible to play a pre-recorded
speech message via the panels internal speaker. With this option on the panel is expecting a
customised message to be programmed by the installer and the message numbers selected at
addresses P451E-P460E, if no message number is programmed, the panel will not play any local PA
message when in alarm.
Option 6 Use Canned local PA message. If option 5 above is on plus this option, the panel will play the default
“Canned” audio message when this group is in alarm provided no message is programmed at addresses
P451E-P460E.
Option 7 Repeat Local PA message. If option 5 or 6 or both are on above and this option is on, the panel repeat
the local PA message until the alarm is disarmed provided no message is programmed at addresses
P451E-P460E.
