17.11 Zone Type Descriptions
This section describes applications for the default zone types in Zone Information programming.
NT (Night Zone) - Controlled instant zone used for perimeter doors and windows and interior devices such as PIRs and
Glassbreak detectors.
DY (Day zone) - Used for emergency doors or fire doors to sound the keypad buzzer and display the zone name when
the zone is faulted. Day zones also will send alarm reports to the receiver during the system's armed periods.
EX (Exit zone) - Initiates the entry delay timer when its assigned area is fully armed. Also, can initiate an exit delay
timer to allow a user to exit an area after the arming process has started.
PN (Panic zone) - Used for connecting to mechanical devices that allow a user to signal an emergency alarm. Panic
zones can provide either a silent or audible alarm with or without reporting to a central station receiver.
EM (Emergency zone) - These are used for reporting medical or other non-panic emergencies to the central station
receiver.
SV (Supervisory zone) - Used to provide 24-hour zone supervision to devices associated with fire systems. Typical
applications are tamper switches on Post Indicator Valves (PIVs), gate valves, and low and high temperature gauges.
FI (Fire zone) - Used for any type of powered or mechanical fire detection device. Typical applications are for smoke
detectors, sprinkler flowswitches, manual pull stations, and beam detectors. Retard, cross zoning, and pre-signal
options are available for the Fire zone type.
FV (Fire Verify zone) - Used primarily for smoke detector circuits to verify the existence of an actual fire condition.
When a Fire Verify zone initiates an alarm, the panel performs a Fire Reset. If any Fire Verify zone initiates an alarm
within 120 seconds after the reset, an alarm is indicated. If an alarm is initiated after 120 seconds, the cycle is
repeated.
A1 and A2 (Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2) - These zones are similar to a Night zone and are typically used to protect
restricted areas within a protected premises.
AR (Arming zone) - This zone allows you to connect a keyswitch on a zone and use it to arm and disarm one or more
areas within a partition.
