ZONE RESPONSE TYPE DEFINITIONS
General Information
You must assign a zone type to each zone, which defines the way in which the
system responds to faults in that zone. Zone types are defined below.
Type 00
Zone Not Used
Program a zone with this zone type if the zone is not used.
Type 01
Entry/Exit Burglary #1
This zone type provides exit and entry delays whenever the zone is faulted if
the control is armed in the Away or Stay modes. When the panel is armed in
the Instant or Maximum modes, no entry delay is provided. Entry delay #1 is
programmable from 0-99 seconds for each partition.
Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the arming
mode selected, and is independently programmable form 0-99 seconds (field
*34).
This zone type is usually assigned to sensors or contacts on doors through
which primary entry and exit will take place.
Type 02
Entry/Exit Burglary #2
This zone type provides a secondary entry delay whenever the zone is faulted
if the panel is armed in the Away and Stay modes. When the panel is armed
in the Instant or Maximum modes, no entry delay is provided. Entry delay #2
is programmable from 0-99 seconds for each partition.
The programmed exit delay (field *34) begins whenever the control is armed,
regardless of the arming mode selected.
This zone type is usually assigned to sensors or contacts on doors through
which secondary entry and exit will take place, and where more time might
be needed to get to and from the keypad (typically used for a garage, loading
dock, or basement door).
Type 03
Perimeter Burglary
This zone type gives an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is
armed in the Away, Stay, Instant or Maximum modes. This zone type is
usually assigned to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows.
Type 04
Interior, Follower
This zone type gives a delayed alarm (using the programmed Entry/Exit
time) if the Entry/Exit zone is faulted first. Otherwise this zone type gives an
instant alarm. This zone type is active when the panel is armed in the Away
and Maximum modes. This zone type is bypassed automatically when
the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes. This zone type is
usually assigned to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway
through which one must pass upon entry (After faulting the entry/exit zone to
reach the keypad to disarm the system.)
Since this zone type is designed to provide an instant alarm if the entry/exit
zone is not violated first, it will protect an area in the event an intruder hides
on the premises prior to the system being armed, or gains access to the
premises through an unprotected area.
Type 05
Trouble by Day/
Alarm by Night
This zone type will give an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away,
Stay, Instant or Maximum (night) modes. During the disarmed state (day),
the system will provide a latched trouble sounding from the keypad (and a
central station report, if desired). This zone type is usually assigned to a zone
which contains a foil-protected door or window (such as in a store), or to a
zone covering a "sensitive" area such as a stock room, drug supply room, etc.
This zone type can also be used on a sensor or contact in an area where
immediate notification of an entry is desired.
