tion is armed in the Stay mode (interior zones bypassed), this zone
will operate as a delay zone.
Interior Stay/Away (05)
This zone acts as an interior zone. The zone will be automatically
bypassed if no delay zone on the partition is violated during the
exit delay or if the partition is armed in the Stay mode.
Delay Stay/Away (06)
This zone will operate the same as the Delay zone with one
exception: this zone will be automatically bypassed if the partition
is armed in the Stay mode.
Standard Fire (07)
When a Standard Fire zone goes into alarm, the panel will activate
all fire outputs and will immediately transmit a reporting code to
the central station, if programmed. The fire output can be pro
-
grammed to pulse—two seconds on, two seconds off—or to fol-
low one of the other fire bell patterns (see 11.3 ”Programmable
Output Options’, options 49-53). If an open condition is present,
the panel will immediately display and communicate a trouble
condition. All keypads will annunciate the trouble by activating
the Trouble light and beeping twice every ten seconds. The key
-
pads can be silenced by pressing any key.
NOTE: Fire zones always require single EOL resistors regardless of
any other programming. Never program a fire zone as silent. Refer to
the wiring diagram or Section 2.9 ’Zone Wiring’ for fire zone configu

ration.
Delayed Fire (08)
This fire zone works the same way as a Standard Fire zone except
that the alarm memory and communication are delayed by 30 sec
-
onds. The fire outputs are activated immediately. The alarm can
be acknowledged by the user by pressing any key before the 30-
second delay expires.
If the alarm is acknowledged, the panel will silence the alarm and
delay communication of the signal for 90 seconds to allow the
user a chance to correct the problem. If the Delayed Fire zone is
still in alarm 90 seconds later, the panel will again activate the fire
output and delay communication for 30 seconds, at which point
the user can acknowledge the alarm again.
If the alarm is not acknowledged, the panel will latch the alarm
after the 30-second delay and will communicate to the central sta

ration.
Auto Verifying Fire (09)
Auto verify Fire zones operate similar to Standard Fire zones.
When the zone goes into alarm, the panel will perform a sensor
reset for 20 seconds and then will wait 10 seconds for the detec
-
tors to clear. If the same zone goes into alarm within 60 seconds,
the panel will immediately activate the fire outputs and will com
-
municate to the central station, if programmed.
NOTE: In order for this zone to operate, the smoke detector power
supply must be connected to an output programmed as Command
Output #2.
NOTE: Fire zones always require single EOL resistors regardless of
the programmed zone supervision. Never program a fire zone as
silent. Refer to the wiring diagram or Section 2.9 ’Zone Wiring’ for
fire zone configuration.
Waterflow (10)
When an alarm occurs, the fire outputs will activate. If pro-
grammed, the panel will immediately send a Waterflow Alarm
reporting code to the central station. The Waterflow zone will also
follow the Waterflow delay, if programmed (see
10.9 ”Transmis-
sion Delay’).
NOTE: Waterflow zones always require single EOL resistors
regardless of any other programming. Refer to the wiring diagram
or Section 2.9 ’Zone Wiring’ for zone configuration.
Fire Supervisory (11)
A Fire Supervisory zone monitors fire critical systems to indicate
when those systems are in a condition that could prevent normal
operation. This zone will indicate an ’Off-Normal Supervisory’
condition when a short circuit is detected. When the zone is open,
a zone trouble will be indicated and the keypad will beep. This
zone will not activate the verbal alarm feature on the PC4936.
24 Hour Zones (Types 12-23)
These zones are always active. When violated, they will create an
alarm, whether the partition is armed or disarmed.
For Types 16-21: When violated, the panel will immediately
latch the bell outputs and will communicate to the central station.
Each zone has a different SIA identifier.
• 24 Hr Bell (12): This zone, when violated, will activate the
burglary outputs. This zone will not activate the verbal alarm
feature on the PC4936.
• 24 Hr Bell/Buzzer (13): This zone, when violated, will create
an alarm whether the partition is armed or disarmed. How
-
ever, if the panel is armed, it will activate the burglary out-
puts; if disarmed it will activate the keypad buzzer. When the
partition is disarmed, this zone will not activate the verbal
alarm feature on the PC4936.
• 24 Hr Buzzer (14): This zone, when violated, will activate
the keypad buzzer.
• 24 Hr Technical (15): This zone is silent.
• 24 Hr Gas (16): This zone is audible.
• 24 Hr Heat (17): This zone is pulsed audible.
• 24 Hr Medical (18): This zone is silent.
• 24 Hr Emergency (19): This zone is audible.
• 24 Hr Water (20): This zone is audible.
• 24 Hr Freeze (21): This zone is audible.
• 24 Hr Holdup (22): This zone is silent. It does not activate
Burglary outputs or the Latched Strobe output.
• 24 Hr Panic (23): This zone is silent. It does not activate Bur-
glary outputs or the Latched Strobe output.
24Hr Quick Bypass (24)
Quick Bypass zones are armed at all times. Users can temporarily
bypass all Quick Bypass zones on a partition by either pressing
the Quick Bypass function key, or entering [*][6][access
code][14].
NOTE: It is recommended that the Quick Bypass function key be
used.
When a user enters the Quick Bypass command, the zone will be
bypassed for the amount of time that was programmed in the
Quick Bypass Duration section.
If the zone is open when the Quick Bypass Duration timer
expires, the panel will begin the Quick Bypass Pre-alert. During
the pre-alert, the buzzers of all the keypads on the partition will
sound.
Users can silence the pre-alert and start the Quick Bypass Dura-
tion timer by either entering the Quick Bypass command, or a
valid access code.
The zone will be restored at the end of the Quick Bypass Pre-alert
time, if it has been closed. If the zone is still open when the pre-
alert time expires, the zone will go into alarm. The panel will log
the alarm to the event buffer and will transmit the alarm (if pro
-
grammed), but the alarm will not be recorded in alarm memory
([*][3] command).
If another Quick Bypass zone is violated during the pre-alert
sequence, both zones will go into alarm at the end of the pre-alert
period.
