Setting and Unsetting Groups

It is possible to split the alarm system into separate areas or ‘Groups’ that can be set and unset independently. Different users can be given access to only certain groups, or to all groups. Also, individual users can be given the option of simply setting and unsetting all groups assigned to their code or choosing which groups to set or unset each time.

Setting and Unsetting Without Group Choice

When a user with access to multiple Groups, but no group choice, wants to set or unset, they should follow the standard procedures on the previous pages.

Setting and Unsetting With Group Choice

With group choice, setting is initiated as normal, using a code, tag or fob. However, a choice of groups will then be displayed along with the current status of each group.

The status can be changed for each group by pressing the appropriate number button and the display will cycle through the possible options.

SET 123

GROUPS SUU

S = SET

U = UNSET

Pressing the ent key will implement the status shown.

If a code, keyfob or tag is used while an entry timer is running or an alarm is in progress, the group that is active will be unset immediately, without any status needing to be changed on the keypad.

Hot Keys

When set by the engineer, three hot key functions are available on the keypads, by pressing a combination of two buttons. The three functions are Fire, Panic and Assistance. The Panic function can be extended to include keyfobs. The button combinations vary depending on keypad/keyfob type and are listed below.
