Function Overview
Alarm Memory
If an alarm was triggered in your absence and the system was not disarmed before alarm length expiry, the Bellbox will sound a short alarm
when the system is disarmed to warn the user that an alarm has been triggered when he is away. This suggests that the intruder could still be
within the premises.
Alarm Length
When an alarm is activated by Control Panel, the Control Panel will notify the Bellbox to start alarming according to the panel’s own alarm
length setting. When the Panel’s alarm length expires, it will notify the Bellbox to stop alarm.
If the Bellbox does not receive the Control Panel’s signal to stop alarm, it will sound alarm for a maximum of 3 minutes, then stop the alarm.
For example:
If the Panel alarm length is set more than 3 minutes, after an alarm is activated, instead of waiting panel alarm length to expire, the
Bellbox will stop alarming after 3 minutes.
If the panel is under disarm mode and the Bellbox tamper switch is triggered, the Bellbox will activate alarm for 3 minutes since the
panel is under disarm mode and will not activate alarm from tamper trigger.
Siren Tamper
The Bellbox is protected against any attempt to open the lid or to detach the bellbox from its mounting surface.
If the Bellbox detects a tamper condition, it will activate the siren & strobe light for the programmed alarm period. A tamper signal will be sent
to the Control Panel along with regular signal transmissions for the Control Panel to display the status accordingly. If the tamper condition
persists, the Bellbox will sound a series of five beeps either every time the system is armed or when the tamper is enabled, to indicate a fault.
Tamper feature can be disabled temporaily from the Control Panel using Siren Tamper control function. The Bellbox will stop tamper detection
temporarity for one hour. This function is mainly designed for replacing battery or changing Bellbox installation location. After one hour, The
Control Panel will automatically turn the function back ON after the duration. The tamper detection can also be enabled again manually using
the Siren Tamper function.
