Managing Sensors
A maximum of six cameras and 64 security sensors and environmental devices can be used in your
system.
You can add or delete environmental devices, key fobs and Wi-Fi repoeaters without assistance from a
services representative.
Important:
Under some circumstances, it is possible to exceed 64 security sensors and environmental
devices, but you should not do it since it could cause your system to act in unexpected ways under
certain circumstances.
You cannot add or delete security sensors in your security system, but you can control how appear in
reports, your TouchScreen and the Subscriber Portal.
You can:
Have a sensor not monitored when the system is armed (see page
)
View your security zone event history (see page
)
Change the order that security zones are listed in the TouchScreen (see page
Disable a Sensor
You can turn a zone off, which means the zone is not monitored when the system is armed. This is useful
during periods when a sensor is being repaired. You can turn a zone off only when the system is
disarmed.
The system continues to log the activity of zones that are turned off in the Event History (see
on page
).
