Using alarm group restrictions in conjunction with auto
arm/disarm
Users can postpone the time that the area(s) will arm by entering their code (or
presenting their card) during the "Warning Time”. Link an alarm group restriction to the
alarm group for the area(s) to postpone by setting Timed disarm areas.
Program the following items to achieve this function:
An alarm group restriction must be programmed with the area(s) required to timed
disarm (the area(s) must also be included in any alarm groups that the alarm group
restriction is assigned to - see below)
The same Alarm group restriction (as programmed above) must be set to YES in:
- The alarm group used in the arm/disarm timer program.
- The alarm group assigned to the arming station(s) or door reader(s) at which the
user is required to perform the function.
- The alarm group assigned to the user(s) who will perform the function.
The required times must be programmed in Timers (page 61):
- Alm/grp restriction 1 disarmed time. The time the automatic arming will be
postponed.
- Warning time. The time that the warning sounds (on the keypad buzzer) before
the area(s) automatically arm. The code/card must be presented during the
warning period to postpone the automatic arming.
If a separate warning beeper needs to be activated from an output, link the output to
the Warning timer event flag that is programmed in the Area database for the
area(s) specified in the alarm group restriction.
Ensure that the alarm group restrictions are also assigned to the alarm group for the
user's and arming stations.
