Delinquency
ON
Delinquency Follows Zone Activity (Activity Delinquency).
This feature assists in the
monitoring of the elderly and the handicapped. If there is no zone activity on a partition,
the Delinquency Transmission Delay timer in Section [370] will begin counting in hours.
When the counter reaches the programmed time, the panel will communicate the Delin-
quency Code to the central station, if programmed. If there is zone activity present on the
system at any time, the counter will be reset. If this option is used, the Closing Delin-
quency option is not available.
NOTE:
This code will not be transmitted for partitions that are “Away” armed. Activity on
Bypassed zones does not affect this timer. The timer is reset on arming.
OFF
Delinquency Follows Arming (Closing Delinquency).
This reporting code is sent
whenever the programmed number of days for Delinquency has expired without the par-
tition being Armed. The timer for this feature is programmed in Section [370]. The value
programmed in this section determines the number of days the partition counts when not
being armed before sending the Delinquency reporting code to the central station. Once
this code is sent, the timer will not be started again until the partition has been armed.
Each day programmed in the counter represents one day PLUS the time it takes for the
partition to reach midnight. This feature may disabled by programming 000 in Section
[370].
