Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)

Global Arming Notes:

When performing a Global Arm, if there are faults in any of the selected partitions, the system will enter a Summary Mode. Faulted zones in all the selected partitions will be displayed. These faults must be corrected or bypassed. This Summary Mode will end in approximately 120 seconds if no keys are pressed.

When performing a Global Disarm, if any of the selected partitions has a condition which would cause the keypad to beep (e.g., alarm memory or a trouble condition), the system enters a Summary Mode and displays the condition. This Summary Mode will end in approximately 120 seconds if no keys are pressed.

Master Keypad Operation

A "Master" keypad is one that reflects the status of the entire system (Partitions 1-8) on its display. This is useful because it eliminates the need for a security officer in a building to have to "log-on" to various partitions from one partition's keypad to find out where an alarm has occurred.

A description of a typical display follows:

SYSTEM

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

STATUS

R R N N A T B

 

 

The status of each partition is directly below the partition number on the display. Possible status indications include:

A = Armed Away

S = Armed Stay

M = Armed Maximum

I = Armed Instant

R = Ready

N = Not Ready

B = Bypassed/Ready

= Alarm

T = Trouble

F = Fire Alarm

P = AC Power Failure

L = Low System Battery

C = Comm Fail

 

 

To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter [] + [Partition No.] (i.e., 4). This will allow viewing only of that partition. In order to affect that partition, the user must log on with a code that has access to that partition. Also, in order for a user of any partition to log onto the "Master" partition (Partition 9) to view the status of all partitions, and to perform any functions at the Master keypad, that user must have access to all partitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.
