This option allows zones to be temporarily removed (omitted/bypassed) from the system. Once a zone has
been omitted it does not generate an alarm condition (including tamper). The omitted zones are reinstated
automatically when the system is unset (disarmed) or manually when the zone omit option is disabled.
On selecting the Omit Zones option, the first zone that has the omit attribute enabled is displayed (refer to
option 52 = PROGRAM ZONE). If there are no omittable zones, then the message NO ENTRIES is
displayed.
Press the A> or <B keys to view other omittable zones. Press the # key to toggle the omit status of the
required zone. The display indicates the new omit status.
NOTE: A zone is omitted from the system as soon as it is selected.
This process is continued until all the required zones have been omitted:
• pressing the ent key starts the timed setting (arming) routine. The number of zones omitted from
the system are displayed during the exit time countdown;
• pressing the esc key returns to the 11 = OMIT ZONES without starting the setting routine.
On returning to the banner (normal or engineer) the keypad displays the message ZONES OMITTED.
Omitted zones remain omitted for one set (armed) period only or until they are manually reinstated to the
system.
Outputs programmed as Zone Omit (mode programmed as follow) are activated as soon as the zone is
omitted and remains active until the zone is reinstated.
There are five zone types which vary from the standard Omit Zones operation:
• Vibration Zones — if the omitted zone is a Vibration zone, then all zones (in all groups)
programmed as this type are block omitted. The Vibration zones remain omitted until they are
manually reinstated. Unsetting (disarming) the system does not reinstate Vibration zones.
• ATM1/2/3/4 Zones — a single ATM zone type can be omitted for the duration of the period entered
in the ATM Timeout parameter (option 51.39). The ATM Delay parameter (option 51.38)
determines the delay before ATM zones are omitted following the entry of one of the ten ATM
Codes.
Entry of a code allows the user to omit one of the ATM zone types. Once omitted, the initiating keypad
indicates the number of minutes remaining until the selected ATM zones are reintroduced to the system. A
warning is given ten and five minutes before the zones are reinstated. The omit time may be extended
indefinitely by re-entering an ATM Code. Outputs programmed as ATM1/2/3/4 are active when the
respective ATM zone type is omitted, and remain active until the zone type is reinstated. Refer to option 52
= PROGRAM ZONES for details on the operation of Vibration
and AT
M zone types.
Manually Reintroducing Omitted (Bypassed) Zones to the System
Selecting the OMIT ZONES option; using the A> or <B keys, select the omitted zone to be reinstated. Press
the # key toggle the omit status of the required zone. The display indicates the new omit status.
Normal Setting (Arming) with Omitted (Bypassed) Zones
Initiate the full or part setting routine. The system starts to set (arm); the display indicates that zones have
been omitted. The zone remains omitted until the system is unset (disarmed) (with the exception of
Vibration and ATM zones).
