23. PARTITIONS
ESIM384 system comes equipped with a partitioning feature that can divide the alarm system into four independently controlled are-
as identied as Partition 1 through 4, which are all supervised by one alarm system unit. Partitioning can be used in installations where
shared alarm system is more practical, such as a house and a garage or within a single multi-storey building. When partitioned, each system
element, like zone, user phone number, keypad, user/master code, iButton key and wireless keyfob can be assigned to single or multiple
partitions. The user will then be able to arm/disarm the system partition (-s) that the zones and arm/disarm method are assigned to.
The following table reects the values used for system element assignment to partitions when conguring via EKB2/EKB3/EKB3W/
EWKB4 keypad. A sum of values is used to assign the element to multiple partitions.
Partition Value
Partition 1 1
Partition 2 2
Partition 3 4
Partition 4 8
Example1: The user wants to assign a certain iButton key to Partition 4 only. According to the table value 8
reects Partition 4. He would then have to enter value 8.
Example2: The user wants to assign a certain user code to Partition 2 and 3. According to the table value 2 re-
ects Partition 2, while value 4 reects Partition 3, therefore 2 + 4 = 6. He would then have to enter value 6.
Example3: The user wants to assign a certain zone to Partition 1, 3 and 4. According to the table value 1 re-
ects Partition 1, while values 4 and 8 reect Partitions 3 and 4 respectively, therefore 1 + 4 + 8 = 13. He
would then have to enter value 13.
