APPENDIX D. Programmable Zone Types 
D1. Delay Zones 
A delay zone triggers the entry delay set by you in the course 
of programming the system. Warning beeps will sound 
throughout these delays, unless you choose to mute them. 
•
  Exit Delay - The exit delay begins once the user arms 
the system. It allows him to leave via interior zones and 
a doorway before arming actually takes effect. When the 
exit delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly and maintains 
a slow beeping rate until the last 10 seconds, during 
which it beeps rapidly.  
•  Entry Delay - The entry delay begins once the user 
enters the protected area via a specific doorway (his 
entry is sensed by a delay zone detector). To avoid an 
alarm, he must reach the keypad via follower zones and 
disarm the system before the delay expires. When the 
entry delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly until the last 
10 seconds, during which it beeps rapidly. The 
PowerMax Pro has two types of delay zones, for which 
different delay times may be set. 
D2. Emergency Zones  
You can provide incapacitated, sick or elderly people with 
a miniature single-button transmitter to be carried on the 
neck like a pendant or to be worn on the wrist like a watch.  
In distress situations, they can press the button on their 
transmitter, causing the PowerMax Pro to send an 
emergency call to the central monitoring station or to 
private telephones designated by the installer. 
D3. Fire Zones 
A fire zone uses smoke detectors and is permanently 
active (a fire alarm is triggered regardless of whether the 
system is armed or disarmed). Upon detection of smoke, a 
pulsating siren sounds immediately and the event is 
reported via the telephone line.
 
D4. Flood Zone 
A flood zone is permanently active (a flood alarm is 
triggered regardless of whether the system is armed or 
disarmed). Upon detection of flood leak, the event is 
reported via the telephone line.  
D5. Gas Zone 
A gas zone is permanently active (a gas alarm is triggered 
regardless of whether the system is armed or disarmed). 
Upon detection of gas leak, the event is reported via the 
telephone line
