Common Zones: zones assigned to both partitions P1 and P2 (Arm Set 123 or 23). An alarm should be
generated from common zones only if the system has been full armed or both partitions 1 and 2 have
been armed.
Note: When defining a zone as a common zone, the zone type definition must be Normal, Entry/Exit, or
Follower.
Note: The system can be armed in a specific arm mode or partition, only if there is at least one zone assigned
to it.
A zone assigned to both partitions (Arm Set 123 or 23) is a common zone – see p. 24, Common zones.
To program the Arm Set option:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Zones [911].
2. Select the zone you want to program.
3. From the zone’s sub-menu, select Arm Set [#03]; the zone’s current Arm Set setting is displayed.

7.3.4. Bell (Siren)
Each zone can be programmed to activate the siren when triggered or to generate a silent alarm where only a message
is sent to the central station.

keypad in the event of a Panic alarm.
If the Bell option is enabled for Environmental or Flood zones, the system sounds trouble tones from
the keypad.
