Zone4 Bell Connection
Zone4 (Z4+ and Z4‑) can be connected to the control panel bell output. This zone detects an alarm condition on the
control panel by monitoring the voltage and cadence timing of the bell output. The communicator evaluates the first
3.5seconds of bell cadence timing to detect the type of alarm sent. See Figure7.
To enable alarm detection operation, zone4 bell connection must be programmed as zone type (A2) in zone
information programming. See Table2 for bell cadence type, zone number, and type of message sent to the receiver.
The communicator generates zones5 and6 using the zone name of zone4 to send to the central station. Zones5
and6 cannot be preprogrammed in zone information. CID Dialer Connection cannot be used when using zone4 bell
connection. See Figure8.
