Setting Individual Areas
In an 8-Area system, the whole premises is divided into up to 8 separate
alarm areas, which may be set and unset independently of each other.
✍ To set or unset an area you must be assigned the right by the
Master User.
To set an area, key in your code plus the Area number.
For example, to set area 6, key in:
Area 6 will now set.
Common Area
The Multi-Area system consists of up to 8 Alarm areas plus a Common Area
(usually the entrance/exit lobby or front door).
The Common Area sets and unsets automatically:
l When all the other areas are set, the Common Area automatically sets.
l When one area is unset, the Common Area automatically unsets.
Areas and Full Set
The Full Set option (see page 13) operates in an area system in the same way as in a standard alarm system.
Keying in your code plus FULL will arm all areas plus the Common area and begin the exit timer.
✍ To Full Set the system (all areas) you must be assigned the option by the Master User or
installer.
Reset Area? Message
The system may be configured to display a ‘Reset Area’ message when you attempt to set an area. This has
the effect of clearing any remaining alert messages. Press YES to this prompt. The display will then show ‘Set
Area ?’ again. Press YES again to set the area.
Unsetting an Area
Keying in your code plus the area number will set the area (if it is unset) or unset
the area (if it is set).
When you unset one area, the Common Area automatically unsets, giving
access to and from the Common Area.
