The time limit when unset
Once the system is set, you have to unset the area within a pre-set time (“entry
time”) as otherwise you will set off the alarm. The manager of the system needs
to inform everyone about this time limit.
You will normally hear a beeper during the time allowed to unset.
Note: There can be programmed an extended entry time. After the main entry
time passes, the entry timer is extended for a programmed time period and a
local alarm activates. See “Local alarm” on page 14 for more details.
Unset when there is an alarm
If there is an alarm condition while you are unsetting the system, the alarm is
reset. You must then find out what caused the alarm and make sure it does not
happen again. See “What to do when there is an alarm” on page 14.
Unsetting while the system is in alarm is described in “Resetting an alarm” on
page 15.
When you cannot set or unset
You might not be authorised to set/unset specific areas on the premises
because:
• Your keypad has been programmed to set/unset specific areas of the
premises only. Make sure you know which keypad to use if there is more than
one present of the premises.
• Your PIN and/or card have been programmed to set/unset only specific areas
of the premises. Make sure you know which areas you are authorised to
set/unset.
• Your alarm system might have more than one control panel. If so, each will
have been programmed to set/unset only specific areas of the premises.
Make sure you use the correct keypad for the areas you want to set/unset.
Active zones
You cannot set an area if it has a zone that is open, such as the magnetic
contacts of a door or window. So, before setting, make sure that all doors and
windows are properly closed.
If a zone is open when you try to set, you get the message:
CHECK SYSTEM
