Some events are critical which must trigger the alarm output, like the firm alarm input, the zone alarm input and etc. But some events are not that important to trigger the alarm output, like the denied access due to the invalid time. These settings all depend on the users’ requirements. EFC-02 controller collects all events that might trigger the alarm output and provides the full capacity to enable or disable the alarm output on these events.

Sometimes user wishes to allocate a particular event to a particular alarm output, or allocate alarm inputs in certain area to multiple alarm outputs. EFC-02 controller delivers all the function and flexibility user need. User can define whether certain event will trigger an alarm, and can further specify to which alarm output that event is allocated.

All events that might trigger an alarm are listed below:

Fire alarm, zone alarm 1~8, unknown card, expired card, invalid card, invalid door, invalid time, card anti-pass back fail, card PIN fail, SYS PIN fail, ARM PIN fail, door forced open, door held open, reader lost, Alarm In 0 and remote alarm

All these events can be allocated to any alarm relay output on main module, door module, and alarm module. The detailed configuration method is introduced in the following section.
