light and upstairs hallway light when the door is opened, if it’s dark outside.

Another example is that a motion detector can be used to turn a light in a hallway on for 5 min- utes, then automatically turn it off.

This feature is implemented us- ing BUTTONs. Every security zone automatically activates one button when the zone is opened, or in alarm, and another button when the zone is closed, or secure. For example, when zone 1 is opened, the programs for BUTTON 11 are ex- ecuted. When zone 1 is closed, the programs for BUTTON 10 are ex- ecuted. The button programs are activated regardless of the zone type and whether or not the secu- rity system is armed.

Programs for zone activated but- tons are only run once, when the transition takes place.

Other Buttons are automatically activated when the fire, police, or medical emergency alarms are acti- vated.

Table 1 in the appendix shows which buttons are activated for each zone.
