Description

 

 

24-hour zone

A monitored input where tamper switches and emergency switches can be connected.

 

 

 

If one of these switches is violated at any time (whether the system is armed or

 

 

 

disarmed), an alarm is reported.

 

 

alarm condition

The status when an alarm system is armed and one of the detection devices is violated.

 

 

 

A 24-Hour zone (for example, a smoke detector) can activate when the system is

 

 

 

armed or disarmed.

 

 

answering machine

A condition that enables connection with the control panel for remote arming or remote

 

 

bypass

programming operations when there is an answering machine or facsimile machine on

 

 

 

the same telephone line.

 

 

Armed (System ON)

A status in which the system is ready to accept alarms.

 

 

automatic arming

Programming that allows the system to arm automatically at the same time each day in

 

 

 

AWAY Mode or STAY Mode 1.

 

 

automatic disarming

Programming that allows the system to disarm automatically at the same time each day

 

 

 

in AWAY Mode or STAY Mode 1.

 

 

AWAY or #

A codepad button used to execute any given command.

 

 

AWAY Mode

The mode used to arm your system when you leave your premises.

 

 

codepad

A device that allows you to perform all functions such as arming, disarming, and

 

 

 

programming of your alarm system.

 

 

day alarm

Programming that allows a combination of zones to be monitored while the system is

 

 

 

disarmed.

 

 

detector

A unit installed as a satellite component in a security system designed to detect an

 

 

 

intruder within a protected area. Some common forms of detection devices are passive

 

 

 

infrared, smoke, photo electric beams, reed switches, and vibration sensors.

 

 

dialer

An electronic device that uses tones or pulses to dial an electronic receiver such as a

 

 

 

monitoring station, mobile phone, or pocket pager. It uses the public switched

 

 

 

telephone network to send alarm or supervisory signals.

 

 

disarmed

A system status that does not accept alarms, except for 24-hour zones.

 

 

dual reporting

Reporting that allows your control panel to transmit alarm signals in two different

 

 

 

reporting formats (for example, the control panel can transmit to a monitoring station

 

 

 

and to a mobile phone, or to two different monitoring stations).

 

 

dynamic battery

A method used to monitor and test the condition of your backup battery.

 

 

testing

 

 

 

EDMSAT satellite

A self-contained siren unit complete with flashing blue strobe light and a backup

 

 

siren

battery that provides a higher level of security for an alarm system.

 

 

entry delay

A programmed delay of the system alarm responses that allows a person to enter a

 

 

 

building through the entry door to turn the system off.

 

 

entry warning

The beeping from a codepad during an entry delay as a reminder to disarm the system.

 

 

exit delay

A programmed delay of the system alarm responses that allows a person to leave a

 

 

 

building after turning the system on.

 

 

external equipment

Any device connected to a security system, such as a detector, codepad, or siren.

 

 

force arming

A method of overriding the safety feature that prevents arming with a faulted zone on a

 

 

 

control panel.

 

 

hand-over delay

If a system is armed and Zone 1 is violated, the entry delay starts timing. If Zone 2 is

 

 

 

violated, the entry delay time is handed over to the Zone 2 and so on, to Zones 3 and

 

 

 

4. This is known as sequential hand-over delay.

 

 

hand-held radio

A device used to arm and disarm a security system or to cause a panic alarm.

 

 

remote control

 

 

 

lockout dialer

A dialer that activates only once per zone per arming cycle.

 

 

lockout siren

A siren that activates only once per zone per arming cycle.
