Bypassing Protection Zones (cont’d)

Group Bypass

Your system allows you to easily bypass a group of zones without having to enter zone numbers individually. The system provides up to 15 groups. There is no limit to the number of zones that may be assigned to any one group. Check with your installer for a list of zones assigned to the group(s).

NOTES:

All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security code plus OFF) is performed.

Users must be assigned the following attributes to perform the group bypass function:

•Enabled for group bypassing

•Access to the partition(s) containing the zones being bypassed

•Global arming capability.

READY TO ARM

In a few moments, all the zones in the group will be displayed along with the word BYPASS. Wait for these zones to be displayed before arming. Arming the system before bypassed zones are displayed eliminates all bypasses.

Arm the system as usual when the keypad displays the "ready" to arm message. Bypassed zones are unprotected and will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed.
