3. OPERATING MODES AND KEYPAD/READER INDICATIONS
3.1 Disarmed and Armed Modes
The panel is active for 24 hours a day and the two basic operation modes are ARMED mode and DISARMED
mode.
DISARMED
In this mode all zones are disarmed, apart from Fire, Personal Attack, 24 Hr, Medical and
rammed period of
time. Upon expiry of this time period, the system will automatically rearm.
3.1.1 Available Arm Modes
When arming the control panel, any one of four arm modes can be selected and programmed with different
configurations within each individual partition area.
For example:
Partition 1 Partition 2 Partition 3 Partition 4
Arm A: Whole partition armed, Premises empty – Away Arm A Arm A Arm A Arm A
Arm B: Upstairs disarmed, downstairs armed – Home Arm B Arm B Arm B Arm B
Arm C: Upstairs armed, downstairs disarmed – Home Arm C Arm C Arm C Arm C
Arm D: Garage armed, the house disarmed – Home Arm D Arm D Arm D Arm D
3.1.2 Alarm Mode
If the system is triggered, it will generate an alarm state causing the following activations:
The internal keypad sounder / external sounder will activate for the pre-set period of time, and
strobe lamp will activate until the user resets the alarm.
A message will be reported to the Central Monitoring Station via telephone or other dedicated
channels. Voice messages will be sent to the prescribed telephone numbers.
3.1.3 First to Alarm Mode (FTA)
When the system is in alarm it can reset by entering a valid user code. Entering the user code in this case will
allow the panel to enter FTA mode, and the first alarm event will be displayed (any post alarm events may be
viewed by pressing the scroll buttons).
In order to reset the panel to Disarmed mode you must enter the
user code once more.
3.2 Entry/Exit Mode
ENTRY
When the panel is armed and an Entry zone is triggered the Entry timer will begin to countdown.
During this period an Entry/Exit tone (single repeated bleep) will be produced by the internal sounder
and any zones which are programmed as Access zones will be ignored. If a correct user code is
entered before the end of the count down period the panel will return to disarmed mode. If the timer
is allowed to elapse before a user code is entered the panel will go into alarm state.
EXIT
Matrix control panels use different types of exit procedures: Timed Exit, Silent Exit and Final Exit. The
most popular exit type used is Timed Exit that can operate in two different ways depending on how the
Global System Options 2 are programmed: Procedure 1 - from disarmed mode enter user code. The
panel will start arming. If any zones are open then the exit timer will be delayed until the relevant
zones are closed. At the end of exit time and providing that all zones have been closed the panel will
arm. Procedure 2 - from disarmed mode enter user code. If any zones are open except Entry / Exit
and Access the panel will give an error tone and come back to disarmed mode. If all zones are closed
except Entry / Exit and Access the panel will start arming. If the Entry / Exit and Access zones are still
open at the end of the exit time the panel will go into alarm. If these are closed then it will arm. If
during arming time an Immediate zone is open then the panel will go into alarm.
