anding Areas
This section is intended to simplify the complicated subject of Areas and Area Codes.
It is recommended that you read this section and understand it in its entirety before
moving on to the programming section.
Typical zone programming to allow for the areas shown in Fig. 34 would be:-
Zone No. Zone Type Cover For Area Allocation
1 Entry/Exit Sales Office Door Area 1
2 Access Sales Office PIR Area 1
3 Entry/Exit Distribution Door Area 2
4 Access Distribution PIR Area 2
5 Entry/Exit Stores Door Area 3
6 Access Stores PIR Area 3
7 Entry/Exit Reception Door Areas 1, 3
8 Access Reception PIR Areas 1, 3
9 Access Corridor PIR Areas 1, 3
Because zones 7, 8 & 9 are allocated to more than one area they will automatically
be classed as a common area by the system. The zones within the common area
will only be set when all areas on the system that contain these common area zones
are set.
As can be seen in Fig. 34 Area 2 (Distribution) does not use the common area and
therefore does not need to have the common area zones allocated to it. Setting and
unsetting Area 2 will have no effect on the common area.
In the example shown each area would have its own RKP with the possibility of a
fourth in the reception as a master RKP.
Consideration should be given to the zone types that are going to be used bearing in
mind that the common area may already have been unset by an area user code,
therefore entry points to other areas would also need to be programmed as entry/exit.
