the Door Chime feature for a partition, enter [*][4] at a key-
pad.
• Force Arm – When force arming is enabled, the partition(s)
the zone is assigned to can be armed even if the zone is not
secure. The zone will be temporarily bypassed and will be
added back into the system if it is later restored. Select [Y] to
enable this feature. If [N] is selected, the zone must be
secured or manually bypassed before arming will be allowed.
• Swgr Shut Down – Swinger shutdown. After the zone has
reported the programmed number of alarms, the zone will be
shut down. Swinger shutdown is reset every time the panel is
armed, or when the clock reaches midnight. See
10.5
”Swinger Shutdown’.
Select [Y] to enable this feature. If [N] is selected, the panel
will always transmit when an alarm occurs.
• TX Delay – Transmission delay. When the zone goes into
alarm, the panel will sound the bell outputs immediately but
will delay communication to the central station for the pro
-
grammed amount of time. If the zone is disarmed before this
time expires, no transmission is sent. If not, the panel will
transmit the alarm after the delay expires.
Select [Y] to enable this feature. If [N] is selected, the panel
will communicate immediately. To program the Transmission
Delay, see
10.9 ”Transmission Delay’
• Waterflow Del – This will enable the waterflow delay for
waterflow zones. Waterflow delay operates similar to trans
-
mission delay except both the fire output and communications
will be delayed. If the zone is restored before the programma
-
ble delay time, no transmission is sent.
Select [Y] to enable this feature. If [N] is selected, the panel
will immediately activate the fire output and communicate to
central station.
• Non-Latch Toggle - Waterflow and Supervisory Zones
When the panel is used for pure supervisory/waterflow report
-
ing - no alarm bells – the waterflow and supervisory zone type
is non-latching. When the panel is used as a local fire panel and
sounds local fire alarm horns for evacuation, these zones types
must be latching.
The following two options address these requirements: Water-
flow Latch, Fire Sup Latch.
Zone 1 Fast Loop Response
If the option Zone 1 Fast (ref # [000200]) is enabled, Zone 1 will
have a loop response time of 32ms. If the option is disabled, Zone
1 will have a normal loop response time (512ms). The option is
disabled by default.
5.5 Bypass Grouping
This feature will allow for groups of zones within a partition to be
temporarily bypassed\unbypassed using an access code or func
-
tion key. The bypassing period will be on a timer or will occur
within two minutes of no zone activity.
• The option for 'Bypass Requires Code' must be enabled.
• The zone attribute 'Zone bypass' must be enabled.
• The new 'Group bypass' user code attribute must be enabled
(section 7.5) and the 'disarm' user code attribute disabled (the
disarm attribute can be enabled; however it will allow the user
to disarm).
• The 'Group Bypass Duration' must be programmed with a
value. This value will be the time the bypass group is
bypassed for.
• If partition toggle ‘No-Act Grp Byp’ is enabled and there is
no zone activity for 2 minutes, the bypass will automatically
be removed from the group. If a zone on the group is open,
the group bypass period will follow the regular bypass dura
-
tion.
• This function can be performed in the 'armed or disarmed'
state.
• In the 'Armed' state the keypad normally displays "Enter Code
to Disarm System". If Group Bypassing is setup on the parti
-
tion a ' > ' will appear. This will indicate to the user to scroll to
the right.
• Once the '>' key is pressed the keypad will display "Press * to
Bypass" on the top line and "GROUP LABEL XXX" on the
bottom line. The GROUP LABEL XXX is the 16 character
programmable label. The user number and group number will
be logged to the event buffer.
• Another method is to use a function key on the keypad pro-
grammed as 'bypass mode'. If this option is used the user will
be required to enter: F1-F5 ACCESS CODE 4, 01-08 to
bypass groups 1-8.
• The Group Bypass can be removed by using the same func-
tionality as enabling the group bypass.
NOTE: Verify zone assignment for each group.
Group Bypass Duration
Ref#: [0100XX0210] where XX = Partition 01-08
This is programmable from 000-255. It will be multiplied by 5
minutes to produce the timer value in minutes. (If 1 minute is pro
-
grammed the time period is 5 minutes, if 255 minutes is pro-
grammed the time period is 255 x 5 = 21.25 hours). This period is
the time a group of zones on the partition will be bypassed for.
Bypass Group
Ref#: [0100XX0301YYY03] where XX = Partition 01-08 and
YYY = Zone 001-128
Enter the bypass group number 00-08; the zone will be assigned
to. Default is 0 (unassigned).
