Programming Instructions for Zone Reporting 
Goal 
Direct event messages (e.g. alarm, bypass, tamper) from zones to specific 
destinations. 
Pre-conditions 
•  The zone must have valid zone options programmed (see “Programming 
Instructions for Zones” on page 112), by default you should not need to 
modify these. 
•  The zone must be allocated a valid Area Group (see “Programming 
Instructions for Zones” on page 112). 
 
•  Channels and Channel Groups must be programmed (see “Programming 
Instructions for Channels” on page 137). 
Notes 
•  Each zone may be allocated to multiple Areas through an Area Group. 
•  Events will be sent to the lowest numbered Area in the Area Group. 
•  A zone may have a Second Zone Profile, when this becomes active all events 
will be sent to the Area Group programmed in the second profile.
