Section 2 – Planning a Partitioned System
2-5
Arming/Disarming Remotely
If arming or disarming remotely (through Compass downloading software), the lobby will not
automatically follow another partition that is programmed to arm or disarm the lobby. The
lobby must be armed separately, after arming all affecting partitions first.
Auto-Arming/Disarming
If scheduling is used to automatically arm and/or disarm partitions, the common lobby
partition will not automatically follow another partition that is programmed to arm or
disarm the lobby. The lobby must be included as a partition to be armed/disarmed and must
be scheduled as the last partition armed.
If using auto-arming, make sure that the Auto-Arm Delay and Auto-Arm Warning periods (fields
2*05 and 2*06) combined are longer than that of any other partition that affects the lobby. This
will cause the lobby to arm last.
Master Keypad Setup and Operation
Although this system has eight actual partitions, it provides an extra partition strictly for the
purpose of assigning keypads as Master keypads for the system.
Any keypad assigned to Partition 9 in Device Programming in the #93 Menu Mode will make
that keypad a master keypad. A master keypad reflects the status of the entire system
(Partitions 1-8) on its display at one time. This is useful because it eliminates the need for a
building security officer to have to log on to various partitions from one partition's keypad to
find out where an alarm has occurred.
The following is a typical display:
S Y S T E M 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
S T A T U S R R N N A
✴
B
Possible status indications include:
A = Armed Away
M = Armed Maximum
S = Armed Stay
I = Armed Instant
R = Ready
N = Not Ready
B = Bypassed/Ready
✴
= Alarm Memory/Trouble present
To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter
✴
+ [Partition No.] (i.e.,
✴
4). This will allow viewing only of that partition. In order to affect that partition, the user
must use a code that has access to that partition. Also, in order for a user of any partition to
log on to Partition 9 to view the status of all partitions, that user must have access to all
partitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.
The following would be displayed for a fault condition on Zone 2 (Loading Dock Window) on
Partition 1 (Warehouse) when logging on from a keypad on Partition 9:
WHSE DISARMED
HIT
✴
FOR FAULTS
Pressing
✴
will cause the following display to appear at Partition 1's keypad(s):
