  Zone 2 Bypass (Soft-Shunt)
Select YES to enable the Bypass option on zone 2 as 
described earlier in this document. This zone provides the 
bypass for door contacts. This zone must be programmed 
into the panel.
  Zone 2 Bypass (Soft-Shunt) Time
Enter the number of Bypass seconds to elapse before the 
bypass timer expires. Range is from 20 to 250 seconds. Press 
the display to enter the number of seconds. Once the door 
strike relay is activated, the user has 5 seconds to open the 
door connected to zone 2. The zone is then bypassed for the 
programmed time or until the contact restores to normal. 
Ten seconds before the Bypass entry/exit time expires, the 
keypad beeps once every second. If the door remains open 
when the timer expires a zone open/short is sent to the 
panel for Zone 2. The default is 40 seconds.
Figure 12 shows how the Bypass works using the default 40 
second timer.
