Chap. 10 Timers and Counters
The
Timers and Counters
menu includes the system timers’ definitions. All times (except those otherwise mentioned) are in seconds.
A time period that allows entering the premises and disarming it (or a partition), without triggering an alarm.
A time period that allows exiting the premises after arming the alarm system (or a partition), without
triggering an alarm.
A time period during which only if a detector activates twice, it triggers an alarm.
A time period during which only if two cross zones activate, an alarm is triggered.
This timer starts running as soon as the first cross zone activates - if another cross zone also activates during
this time, an alarm is triggered. If the other zone is activates after the timer elapsed, no alarm is triggered.
If the first cross zone is still active when the timer elapses, whenever another cross zone activates, an alarm
is triggered.
A time period (days) during which the zone is in test mode: if it activates it will not trigger an alarm (but the
event will be recorded). After this timer elapses, the zone is automatically reinstated (at midnight).
A time limit before arming the alarm system (or a partition) during which a zone can be bypassed by a user.
The zone is un-bypassed when the timer elapses or the alarm system/partition is disarmed, whichever
comes first.
A time period during which a zone that was automatically bypassed after triggering the alarm three times
during one arming session is reinstated.
A time period (days) during which if the alarm system has not been armed, ContactID event no. 654 is
reported.
The number of allowed keystrokes, when entering codes. Any more keystrokes will trigger an alarm and lock
the keypad. See next. To reset the counter, wait 30 seconds.
A time period during which the keypad is locked, due to illegal number of keystrokes (see above).
