Area Type Settings
Area Type
Standard: The area functions as normal.
Timed Disarm: Timed disarm is used when an authorized user can disarm an
area for a predetermined period of time. At the end of this disarm time the area
will start the auto-arm process ensuring that the area is not accidently left
disarmed. The following conditions must be true before a timed area disarm
function will occur:
• The area type must be set to Timed Disarm.
• The area type schedule must be active.
• The user’s active profile’s permission must have:
• This area set in the permission’s timed disarm area group.
• The permission must be in schedule.
• The permission’s Area Type Override must NOT be set.
At the end of the user’s disarm time, the Auto Arm Warning will activate for the
set period. At the end of the Auto Arm Warning period the area will arm and start
the Exit Delay and if configured, report a closing using via the last user number to
have time disarmed the area.
Anytime during the timed disarm period, authorized users with Area Type
Override set in their active profile can cancel the disarm time period by arming or
disarming the area.
The user’s permission determines how long the area will be disarmed for.
Man Down: Man down is used when an authorized user(s) is working in a
hazardous area (or the like), and there is a requirement that the user(s) regularly
“check-in” to notify others that the user(s) is safe. If the authorized user(s) fails to
perform this action the system can set an audible warning and send a report.
The following conditions must be true before man down function will occur:
• The area type must be selected to man down.
• The area type schedule must be active (after the start time and before the
end time).
• The user’s active profile’s permission must have:
• This area set in the permission’s man down group.
• The permission must be in schedule.
• The permission’s Area Type Override must NOT be set.
The man down timer is set in the user’s permission.
