Chime
Chime is used to give a local audible warning from the Guard Zones in Areas which are Unset.
The Chime System may have been set up by your Alarm Company to operate on pre-selected
Guard Zones (e.g.the Door Contacts used on the Exit/Entry route). This is useful when the
premises are occupied and you wish to be notified if other persons have entered a particular
Area within the building. The system may have been programmed to automatically turn Chime
on when the system is Fully Opened. You can Set and Unset Chime yourself in individual
Areas subject to your Area Authorisation and you can use Zone Omit to temporarily exclude
Zones from the Chime system. In a Split System it is possible to have some Areas operating in
Chime mode while other Areas are Set.
