operation of the controller between Normal and Secure mode. By
connecting a switch timer or alarm system output to the auxiliary
input, the controller can be automatically switched from Normal
mode (during office hours) to Secure mode (after office hours).
4.9.4 Auxiliary Mode 3
Auxiliary input function: Toggles Normal/Secure modes
Auxiliary output activated by: Alarms
For example, in Auxiliary Mode 3, the auxiliary output is activated if
the controller is tampered; that is, if the case is forcibly opened or
removed from the wall. The auxiliary input can switch the mode of
operation of the controller between Normal and Secure mode. By
connecting a switch timer or alarm system output to the auxiliary
input, the controller can be automatically switched from Normal
mode (during office hours) to Secure mode (after office hours).
4.9.5 Auxiliary Mode 4
Auxiliary input function: Toggles Normal/Secure modes
Auxiliary output activated by: direct shunt (explanation below)
For example, in Auxiliary Mode 4, the controller is capable of
bypassing an alarm zone by shunting an alarm system’s door
sensor. The auxiliary output is to be wired in parallel to the door
sensor output. When in use, the auxiliary output is normally open
and the door sensor functions normally. When a valid code is
entered, the auxiliary relay shunts the door sensor for the duration
of the Shunt time, as defined by the auxiliary setting. If the door is
left open longer than the Shunt time, an alarm is triggered.
4.9.6 Auxiliary Mode 5
Auxiliary input function: Door Monitor
Auxiliary output activated by: Shunt (explanation below)
For example, in Auxiliary Mode 5, the controller is capable of
shunting an alarm system. In this mode, the auxiliary input is to be
wired to the magnetic contact switch on the door. The auxiliary
relay is wired to the alarm system. Without a valid code entered, the
