Activity Monitoring and Auto-
Arming
General Operation
Activity monitoring can be set to transmit an
alarm and/or arm areas automatically when
activity is not detected for a specific length of
time. Per the operator's selections, this
automated arming can:
+ Be triggered by "No Activity", and/or; "User
Count a preset minimum value" remaining in
effect for a set duration (timeout value).
+ Pertain to inputs set as "Activity Monitor"
custom points, sensors on the entry/exit route,
and/or door openings.
+ Arm to ON or Stay
+ Occur with or without an optional configurable
delay time before arming
(to allow users additional time to either trigger
activity, or leave the area)
+ Can operate either any time, or only outside of
an Arm/Disarm schedule selected on the
"Scheduling" tab for the specific area (if
applicable).
Tip
: The arming level(s) for which an Activity
Monitor input point will monitor activity is
determined by the "Level" setting for the
Custom Point Type (Off, Off/Stay, or "Always").
(The rest of the time, the point(s) will be treated
as a standard point (Burg., supervisory, etc.--
per selections for the custom point type).
Locator: Config., Custom Point Types,
("Preprocess: Activity Monitor"), "Level"
and "Class".
Steps
1) Define a "Custom Point Type", being sure
to select: "Preprocess: Activity Monitor",
and other settings as desired. Locator:
Configuration, Custom Point Types.
2) Set up any activity monitoring input
points, being sure to assign your custom
point type to each one.
Locator: Configuration, Input Points.
3) For each applicable area, make
selections as desired for the "Activity"
and "Auto Arm" screens.
Locator: Configuration, Areas,
"Activity " and "Auto Arm ".
Activity ( V4.20)
These settings allow enabling and configuring 'activity'
detection for each area. This: Pertains to custom
'Activity Monitor' input points; Can include persons
gaining entry at doors/gates; Can include detection
via input points on the "Entry/Exit Route". More:
"Related
", & "Auto Arm".
- Timeout: This allows disabling 'activity'
detection for each area, or setting the maximum
duration between activity-detections for it to still
be considered 'in effect'. (The status is reset if
activity is not detected for this duration.)
Notes: Immediate = 1 second. Short durations are
not recommended. This is the only method for
resetting 'activity' status.
- Include EE Route: Whether or not inputs on the
entry/exit route for this area will be monitored as
well as 'Activity Monitor' inputs;
- Include Doors: Whether or not persons
entering and leaving the area will trigger the
'activity' status as well (i.e., door openings).
- Alarm on No Activity
(V4.4): This causes an
alarm to be generated if a timeout occurs
without activity being detected.

Auto Arm ( V4.20)
These settings allow having an area arm automatically:
When a/the door closes; When there is 'No Activity',
and/or; When no one is present (user-count
'minimum'). Auto-arming based on 'activity' and 'user-
count' can also be tied to the arm/disarm schedule for
each area.
