14 – Chime Zone
A Chime Zone is not a burglary zone. It can never sound the sirens or activate the dialer. Its purpose is to map the zone to a programmable output to indicate if the zone is sealed or unsealed. Refer to Output Event Type 4,5 Global Chime on page 75.
Chime zones require EOL resistors and are registered at a remote codepad. These zones do not affect the operation of forced arming.
15 –Zone Not Used
If a zone is not used, program the zone type location to 15. An EOL resistor is not required if this zone type is used. This zone type never sounds the sirens or activates the dialer.
14.3.3Zone Pulse Count
Zone pulse count is the number of times a zone must be activated before the zone registers an alarm. The number can vary from 0 to 15. The zone pulse count value is relative to the time frame (that is, the number of pulses that must be present during a particular time frame). Refer to Section 14.3.4 Zone Pulse Count Time for time frame settings.
A zone that is programmed with a pulse count activates an alarm when it is continuously unsealed for 10 sec. A 24- Hour Fire Zone programmed with a pulse count activates an alarm when it is continuously unsealed for 30 sec.
Zone Pulse Count Handover
Zone pulse count handover operates only with Zone Pulse Count Time options 8 to 15. Refer to Section
14.3.4Zone Pulse Count Time for more information.
Any zone that registers one activate pulse automatically increments any other zone pulse count that already registered at least one activate pulse during its respective time. To enable this feature, select Option 4 in Location 494 (refer to Section 18.3 System Options 3 on page 81).
14.3.4Zone Pulse Count Time
Zone pulse count time is the time frame or period over which the programmed number of pulses must register to activate an alarm.

For zone pulse count time, options 0 to 7 have a zone loop response time of 20 ms and options 8 to 15 have a zone loop response time of 150 ms. Loop response time is the length of time a zone must be unsealed before it can register as a valid pulse.
Inertia sensors should use options 0 to 7 and PIR detectors should use options 8 to 15.
14.3.5Zone Options 1
This location has four programming options. You can select any combination of the options by programming a single value. Calculate this value by adding the option bit numbers together. Refer to Section 7.3 Programming Option Bits on page 36 for more information.

1 – Lockout Siren and Lockout Dialer
Lockout refers to one activation per arming cycle (that is, a zone programmed for Lockout can activate the sirens or dialer only once).
The next time the system is armed, the zone can activate the sirens and dialer once more. Restore signals are sent when the system is disarmed.
