Integrated EST3 network
When your EST3X system is part of an EST3 life safety network, you can take
advantage of the EST3 network’s Mass Notification Service, ULC Remote and
Central Station Service, and the following UL/ULC Security Services:
• Local alarm
• Police Station alarm
• Central Station alarm
• Proprietary alarm
• Holdup alarm
You to can set security device partitions and the bypass state for the security
devices from the EST3X control panel LCD.
Note: To integrate with an EST3 network, the 3X-NET RS-485 Network Option
Card or 3X-FIB Fiber Network Option Module must be installed.
Security device partitions
A security partition is a group of devices intended to secure a physical area.
When you arm a partition, you instruct the system to monitor those devices for
armed alarm events.
Partitions can be armed for two states: Stay and Away. Arming to Stay causes
the system to monitor only those devices on the perimeter of the protected area.
This leaves you free to move about inside the partition. Arming to Away causes
the system to monitor all devices, both perimeter and interior.
Before arming the partition, the system checks all the devices in the partition to
ensure that they are in the normal state. Typically, if a device is off-normal it may
prevent the partition from being armed. However, you can elect to disable the
off-normal device and arm the remaining devices in the partition.
When commanded to conditionally arm, the partition may arm directly or may
generate an error or warning under the following conditions:
