System examples and scenarios
When to use a common area
Installation & Configuration Manual
ACCOUNTS: unsets the Accounts area and the Common Area (Reception). In
this case the Sales area remains set while access is still permitted through the
front door.
Use of common areas:
Keyarm zone
If the entry/exit route in the common area is programmed as a keyarm zone, when
it is activated all areas in the Common area are SET. Deactivating the keyarm zone
UNSETs all areas in the Common Areas.
Multiple keypads
If areas assigned to the common area have their own keypads for entry/exit, it is
important that the exit times associated with those areas provide sufficient time to
allow the user to reach the common area exit. This is in case the area being armed
is the last un-armed area on the system and therefore will trigger arming of the
entire common area.
As a rule it is advisable to use common areas in installations that have only one
keypad located at the common access point, i.e. front door access to the entire
building.
