16.6 Keypad Speaker Operation
When using LCD Keypads, the panel provides distinct speaker tones from the keypad for Fire, Burglary,
Zone Monitor, and Prewarn events. The list below details the conditions under which the speaker is
turned on and off for each event.
Fire On - Fire zone alarm and Bell Output are ON.
Off - Alarm Silence or briey when a key is pressed.
Burglary On - Burglary zone alarm and Bell Output and is ON.
Off - Alarm Silence or briey when a key is pressed.
Zone Monitor On - One time only when a monitored zone is tripped.
Off - After one tone.
Prewarn On - During Entry Delay.
Off - When Entry Delay expires, when a Valid Code is entered,
or briey when a key is pressed.
16.7 Cross Zoning
Caution must be taken when cross zoning devices to ensure that the Cross Zone Time is long enough to
allow an intruder to trip both devices before it expires. A Cross Zone Time that is too short may allow an
intruder to trip the devices and allow only a zone fault report be sent to the central station.
When a Cross Zoned zone trips, a FAULT report is sent to the SCS-1R Receiver. When two Cross Zoned
zones trip within the Cross Zone Time, both zones send ALARM signals to the receiver. For example,
if zones 1 and 2 are Cross Zoned zones, and only zone 1 trips, a FAULT report is sent to the receiver
for zone 1. If zone 1 trips and zone 2 trips within the Cross Zone Time, an ALARM report is sent to the
receiver for zone 1 and zone 2.
Note: To operate correctly, all cross-zone zones need to be programmed as the same zone type.
16.8 Zone Type Descriptions
This section describes applications for the default zone types in Zone Information programming.
NT (Night Zone) - Controlled instant zone used for perimeter doors and windows and interior devices such
as PIRs and glassbreak detectors.
DY (Day zone) - Used for emergency doors or re doors to sound the keypad buzzer and display the zone
name when the zone is faulted. Day zones also will send alarm reports to the receiver during the system’s
armed periods.
EX (Exit zone) - Initiates the entry delay timer when its assigned area is fully armed. Also, can initiate an
exit delay timer to allow a user to exit an area after the arming process has started.
PN (Panic zone) - Used for connecting to mechanical devices that allow a user to signal an emergency
alarm. Panic zones can provide either a silent or audible alarm with or without reporting to a central
station receiver.
EM (Emergency zone) - These are used for reporting medical or other non-panic emergencies to the
central station.
SV (Supervisory zone) - Used to provide 24-hour zone supervision. Typical applications are high water, and
low and high temperature gauges.
FI (Fire zone) - Used for any type of powered or mechanical re detection device. Typical applications
are for smoke detectors, sprinkler ow switches, manual pull stations, and beam detectors.
FV (Fire Verify zone) - Used primarily for smoke detector circuits to verify the existence of an actual re
condition. When a Fire Verify zone initiates an alarm, the panel performs a Fire Reset. If any Fire zone
initiates an alarm within 120 seconds after the reset, an alarm is indicated. If an alarm is initiated after
120 seconds, the cycle is repeated.
A1 and A2 (Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2) - These zones are similar to a Night zone and are typically used to
protect restricted areas within a protected premises. Auxiliary 2 zones do not appear in the Status List.
AR (Arming zone) - This zone allows you to connect a keyswitch to a zone and use it to arm and disarm
the system.
