Zone Functions
The zones of the alarm center leave the factory congured as immediate, i.e. when
are violated they generate the immediate event/re, but can be congured for the
following functions:
» Timed zone for input: allows you to dene which zones will be timed when
the alarm center is activated. If a timed zone is opened/violated with the center
activated, the input timing will start and the system must be deactivated before
the end of the timing for the alarm not to trigger. If a non-timed zone is opened
before the system is deactivated, the alarm will trigger immediately. To set the
time, refer to the
Input Timing
section.
» Follower zone: this setting is valid only if used in conjunction with a timed zone
with the alarm center activated. The zone can behave in two different ways:
» If someone enters a timed zone and then enters the follower zone, the behavior
will be timed zone.
» If someone enters a follower zone without having passed through a timed zone
before, the behavior will be immediate zone.
» 24 hour zone: in this setting, the zone remains activated 24 hours a day,
even when the system is deactivated. It can be congured for audible or silent
triggering. To set the type of trip, see
Zone operation mode.
» Panic zone: this function is designed to request help in a hazardous situation. The
moment the zone is violated, the panic event will be reported to the monitoring
company. You can program this function in
Audible
or
Silent
mode. To set the type
of trip, see
Zone operation mode section.
» Medical panic zone: when the zone is violated, the medical emergency event
will be reported to the monitoring company and the siren will beep for 1 second
every 6 seconds.
» Fire zone: has the function of monitoring re sensors - use the TX 8000 Universal
Transmitter to receive the signal from a wired re sensor. Congured zone will
remain active 24 hours a day. If the sensor detects a problem, the re event will be
reported to the monitoring company and the siren will emit pulsed tones. In most
cases, re sensors have normally open contacts (NO) and to congure the zone,
be in this mode, see
Zone operation mode section.
A zone can only be congured for one of the above functions. Therefore, if a zone is
set up for more than one function, only the last selected function will be accepted.
For example, if zone 2 is congured as timed and then congured as 24 hour zone,
zone 2 will operate according to the last conguration made, in this case 24 hour
zone.
