Bypass Zones
Allows you to bypass a zone prior to arming.
Bypassing is usually done when a zone cannot be restored to
normal. A signiÞ cant beneÞ t of bypassing a zone is to allow a zone
in a faulted or bad condition to be bypassed so arming can occur.
The faulted zone can be serviced the next day.
A zone can be bypassed only while it is disarmed. Fire, panic,
emergency, and supervisory type zones are always armed, so they
can never be manually bypassed.
Bypass Zones can also be used to reset a zone that has been
bypassed and restore it back into the system.
When Bypass Zones is selected, a report can be transmit ted to your
central station.
Using the Bypass Zones Function
1. Access the User Menu.
2. Press COMMAND until BYPASS ZONES? displays.
3. Press any Select key. The keypad displays
ZONE: - RST BYPS.
4. To Bypass a zone, enter the zone number and select BYPS.
The zone number automatically disappears and a new zone
number can be entered. Refer back to step 3.
5. To Reset a zone, enter the zone number and select RST.
Browser Feature
If you are unsure of the zone number or description, refer to
Appendix B at the back of this guide for a diagram showing you how
to use the built-in Bypass Zones browser.
Zone Monitor
Allows the system to monitor selected disarmed zones (doors,
windows, or motion detectors) and display their name at the
keypad as they are faulted. This feature could be used to monitor
an access door.
Zone Monitor works with any disarmed zone and also sounds
the keypad monitor tone when the zone faults. The zone name
displays at all keypads designated for the area in your system.
You can place any combination of disarmed zones in Zone Monitor
but only the most recent zone faulted displays. The displayed zone
name clears automatically after a short time or when the zone is
armed.
Testing your system’s burglary protection
After using the System Test function, place all zones in Zone
Monitor. Starting at the front door, go around and open and then
close each door and window. You should hear the keypad beep
each time. The keypad also displays the name of each zone as its
device is opened.
Once the protected doors and windows test is complete, walk in
front of each motion detector. The keypad should beep to conÞ rm
the zone has tripped. If at any time during your weekly testing
a device does not cause the keypad to beep, call the service
department for assistance.
