• Alarm on Short: This zone will alarm when the loop is shorted and the system is armed. It will generate a “Not Ready” (or “Fire Trouble”
on fire zones) while unarmed and prevent arming unless the problem is cleared, Forced Armed, or Bypassed.
• Alarm on Open: Works like Alarm on Short, but alarms when loop is opened.
• Trouble on Short: This zone will alarm when the loop is shorted and the system is armed. It will generate a “Trouble” while unarmed and
prevent arming unless the problem is cleared, Forced Armed, or Bypassed.
• Trouble on Open: Works like Trouble on Short, but alarms when loop is opened.
7.4 Address 04 - Output Type
• Invisible: This is a zone programmed not to have an alarm output or an alarm display at any keypad when activated. An alarm signal
will be sent, but the keypad display will not indicate an alarm while this zone is violated. Invisible alarm zones are recommended for
holdup alarms.
• Silent: This is a zone programmed to activate the visual display at the keypad, but not audible signals. If this zone is also an entry
zone, an entry tone will sound when this zone is activated.
• Steady: When this zone alarms all programmed outputs (prog1/prog2/prog3) will come on steady, unless they are already pulsing, in
which case they will remain pulsing.
• Pulsing: The pattern for the pulsing audible output will be 0.5 sec on, 0.5 sec off repeated three times, with an additional 1 second de-
lay between repeats. When zones are tripped which could cause both pulsing and steady outputs, the pulsing output will prevail. The
alarm outputs will continue to be activated until the bell cutoff timer times out or is reset and then they will silence. Only programmable
output 3 and the keypad sounders will pulse, regardless of the programming.
7.5 Address 05 - Zone Response Time
All six zones can be programmed to respond at either 300 ms (±100 ms) or a programmable time (common to all zones, the time is
programmed into Address 06) that can be configured to be between 160 ms and 2.5 seconds.
