USING THE DEADMAN TIMERS
The Deadman facility is used so the Concept 2000 system can “keep an eye” on personnel working in the vicinity of a
Concept 2000 Terminal.
The Deadman facility can either be enabled or dis-enabled, on a per terminal basis, by first pressing MENU, followed
by the “6” key.
The display window will show:
The User may now select which Terminal(s) in the Concept 2000 system will have the Deadman facility enabled by
placing a “Y” under the respective Terminal number
If no Deadman facility is required, then set all Terminals to “N”.
When the Deadman facility has been enabled for one or more Terminals, those Terminals will act as follows:
• If the Terminals with Deadman enabled do not have had a valid User. code entered for at least 30 minutes, all
Terminals, with the Deadman
facility enabled, will continuously “beep” and display the message:
If a valid User code is not entered at any of the Deadman Terminals within 60 seconds, a Deadman alarm will be raised
which may optionally report to a Central Station.
• Note: The 30 minute time, referred to above, is programmed by your Installer to be any
time period between 1 minute and 4 hours, 15 minutes.
