Partitions
Any zone or group of zones can be assigned to any of 8 independent partitions. Partitioning allows a single Pro-24
to protect each dwelling in a multi-family house, several departments in a commercial or institutional facility, and
even several closely situated stores a strip mall. Each partition supports zone-sharing and cross-zoning.
Keypads
The Pro-24 can support up to 16 keypads, with a choice of four styles (two LCD-type and two LED-type) from
which virtually all system features may be accessed.
The LCD Keypads come a large display. The LED Keypads also come in two styles: 16 Zone (shown
here), with 16 Zone LEDs and 8 Zone (with 8 Zone LEDs).
Each keypad is equipped with three Emergency Key zones (Panic, Fire, Auxiliary Emergency) and the ability to
produce a Duress (Ambush) Code. All keypads are tamper-protected and employ backlighting for their display and
their keys, which also produce audible feedback when pressed. Keypads can be programmed to detect and
discourage unsuccessful attempts at disarming, and incorporate easy-to-use hot-key sequences for simple zone
bypassing and to display information about unsecured zones. A one key Quick-Arm feature, for both "Stay" and
"Away" modes of operation, can be selected for ease of use.
In partitioned systems, keypads can be selectively assigned to specific partitions, but LED-type keypads can be
used only in systems, which do not exceed their ability to display zone indications. Thus, the 8-LED Keypad
cannot be used in a system with more than 8 zones, nor can the 16-LED Keypad be used when more than 16
zones are installed.
User Codes and Authority Levels
Each Pro-24 installation typically accommodates up to 99 unique User Codes of up to 6 digits each–each code
assignable to one of several Authority Levels and, if used, to multiple partitions.
Key switches (Not for UL Installations)
For those premises locations in which a simple key switch will suffice, the Pro-24 is capable of supporting an
SPST, normally-open, momentary type. The key switch permits the arming and disarming of the system (or one of
its partitions).
Expansion Bus
Through the Pro-24’s 4-wire BUS, which can be run up to 1000 feet, a variety of features and enhancements are
made possible through the use of the appropriate Expansion Module(s). Incorporating any module into the system
is accomplished by its simple connection to the system's BUS, as suggested by 2-6 on page 2-11.
