INSTALLER LEVEL PROGRAMMING
Timer has expired without the violation being
verified, then nothing happens.
Common Area Burglar zones cannot be programmed
as verifying or self-verifying, but they can verify a veri-
fying or self-verifying zone from Area 1 or Area 2 (see
Operating the System - Introduction).
Note 7: Sentry Test Burglar Zones
If a Burglar zone has Sentry Test enabled, then each
time the zone is disarmed, it must be tested before it
can be armed again. A test consists of violating the
zone from a restored state and then restoring it again.
If the zone has not been tested, then it appears as a
faulted zone, making its area not ready to arm. An
untested zone cannot be armed. If the zone is
bypassable, then it may be bypassed to get around
the testing. Force-Arming should not be enabled
on systems with Sentry Test Burglar Zones.
Note 8: Zone Activation of Bell Output and
Keypad Sounders
The Bell Output on Alarm attribute determines
whether the Bell Output for the zone’s area activates
due to an alarm from the zone. It does not affect
the activation of any other programmable outputs,
including an associated Alarm output.
This attribute is only used if the Zone Type is Bur-
glar, Holdup, Auxiliary or Burglar Tamper; otherwise,
it is ignored. The Bell Output activates on all alarms
from Fire and Verified Fire zones and from an ‘A’
key. It never activates from the other Zone Types.
The Keypad Sounder on Alarm attribute determines
whether the Control Station sounders activate due
to an alarm from the zone. It does not affect the
activation of any programmable outputs. This at-
tribute is only used if the Zone Type is Burglar,
Holdup or Auxiliary; otherwise, it is ignored. Key-
pad sounders activate on all alarms from Fire and
Verified Fire zones and from an ‘A’ key, as well as
from Burglar Tamper and Fire Supervisory zones.
They never activate from the other Zone Types.
If a Holdup zone is programmed with neither Bell
Output on Alarm nor Keypad Sounder on Alarm,
then an alarm from the zone will be invisible on the
Control Stations.
mation and prompts. Therefore, LED Control Sta-
tions cannot have a Secondary Area.
Note 6: Verifying or Self-Verifying Burglar Zones
If an armed Verifying Burglar zone is violated, then a
forty second Verification Timer is started. If the timer
expires and the zone that started it is still in violation,
then the zone’s violation is verified. If another armed
Burglar zone is violated while the timer is still running,
then that violation verifies the first zone’s violation.
If an armed Self-Verifying Burglar zone is violated,
then a forty second Verification Timer is started. If
the Timer expires and the zone is still in violation,
then the zone’s violation is verified. If another armed
Burglar zone is violated while the Timer is still run-
ning, then that violation verifies the first zone’s vio-
lation. If the same armed Burglar zone is violated a
second time while the Timer is still running, then
the zone’s violation is verified.
If the area is armed such that a violation from the
zone would normally cause an instant alarm:
• when the zone is first violated, nothing happens.
• when the violation is verified, an instant alarm
occurs.
• if the Verification Timer expires without the vio-
lation being verified, then nothing happens.
If the area is armed such that a violation from the
zone would normally cause an Entry Time or Pre-
Alarm Warning Time Delay:
•
when the zone is first violated, the Delay Timer
is started.
•
if the violation is verified while the Delay Timer is
still running, then the Delay Timer continues as
normal.
•
if the Verification Timer expires while the Delay
Timer is still running and the violation has not
been verified, then the time continues. If the
Delay Timer expires and no zones are violated
from the Delay Time, then nothing happens.
•
if the Delay timer expires before the Verification
timer expires and the violation has not been veri-
fied, then nothing will happen until either the vio-
lation is verified or the Verification Timer expires.
•
if the violation is verified after the Delay Timer
has expired, then an instant alarm occurs.
•
if the Verification Timer expires after the Delay
