 Partitions
Partitions allow dividing the premises into separate areas, with detectors, keypads, and users
for each partition. Users can be allocated to one or more partitions, so they can arm and disarm
only these partitions. Keypads are also allocated to partitions.
Normally, a partition can be a house floor, a shop, a perimeter zone, etc. The technician defines
the zones and keypads partition allocation, while the Master user defines the users’ allocation.
 Zone
A zone is an input of the alarm system, to which one or more detectors are connected and
monitored. Each zone covers a defined area in the premises. The alarm system is made of
zones, each triggers the alarm when it detects a movement or other changes. There are various
zone types, such as Burglary, Panic, Medical, Flood, etc.
A zone is normally “closed”, and is “open” when in detection mode. The detection mode can be
easily identified, by passing near the detector - a red LED illuminates as an indication.
Immediate zones triggers the alarm as they are opened, while delayed zones only triggers the
alarm when a delay expires. See “Exit and entry delays”.
 Zone Bypass
Zones (detectors) can be temporarily bypassed, so when the alarm system is armed, they stay
in “normal” mode. This feature is used when the detector is at fault and it is valid for one-time
arming only.
