7.2.3. Supervision Time
The sensors in Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range send a supervision signal approximately 20 minutes
after its last transmission. If the system does not receive supervision signals from a specific transmitter, the transmitter
is regarded as inactive.
The amount of time after which a transmitter is considered inactive is called the Supervision Time. There is a separate
supervision time for general transmitters and devices that are registered to Fire zones.
To program the Supervision Time for general transmitters:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, General [9161].
2. Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours.
To program the Supervision Time for transmitters registered to Fire zones:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, Fire [9162].
2. Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours.
To meet the requirements of the EN50131 standard, the programmed supervision time
must be set to 2 hours.
7.2.4. Re-Synchronization
Transmissions that are out of synchronization are rejected by the system. For example, it is not possible to arm or
disarm the system using a keyfob that is out of synchronization. In the event that a transmitter is out of
synchronization, it is possible to re-synchronize the transmitter and restore normal operation.
To re-synchronize transmitters:
From the Programming menu, select Devices, TX Re-synch [917]; a 10-minute time window is opened.
During the 10-minute time window, if a transmission is received that is out of synchronization, the
transmitter is re-synchronized.
7.3. Zones
The iConnect Control System supports Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range of transmitters that includes
various PIR detectors, magnetic contacts and smoke detectors. All these transmitters send supervision signals to the
Control System's receiver in order to indicate that the transmitter is functional.
Control System includes 33 security zones. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default, unless the zones 1
to 8 are programmed as wired zones connected to the Wired Zone Module -- see p. 5, 1.4.2 Wired Zone Module. Only
one sensor can be registered to each zone.
Zone 33 is an on-board hardwire zone. This zone is programmed in the same way as the wireless zones with the
exception of registration and deletion.
This section explains the programming exclusive to detectors. For information on registration, descriptor editing, and
deletion, see p. 43, 7.1, 7.2.1, 7.2.2. The zone menu is displayed according to the zone type (see below).
Most of the programming options are identical for hardwire and wireless zones with the following exceptions:
Wireless Zones
Register (see: p. 43, 7.2.1 Registering Wireless Devices)
Delete (see: p. 43, 7.2.2 Deleting Wireless Devices)
Repeater (see: p. 47, 7.3.8 Repeater)
