Setting the trigger type
The type for each Extension Radio Trigger is set in the following parameter (see table on previous
page). For example, the type of the trigger in parameter 60 is set in parameter 61. Likewise, the
type of the trigger in parameter 62 is set in parameter 63.

The first two digits are used to set the type (see adjacent
table). The remaining digits are used to set the location
codes, which are explained a little later in this section. The
example above sets the trigger type to be a smoke detector
located in the living room with a priority of 1.
If you set the type in parameter 63 (i.e. the first two digits)
to 00 then this will indicate that the Extension Radio Trigger
is not used. Even if a radio trigger is registered in parameter
62 nothing will happen when it is set off. If the type is set
to 01 then the Lifeline 4000 will treat the trigger as if it is
a smoke alarm. If the type is set to 03 then the Lifeline
4000 will treat the trigger as if it is a pull cord.
Intruders and movement sensors.
Some types of trigger
will only be used as intruder detectors. For example, if you
have a device to detect when a window has been broken (and
it is linked to a radio trigger), then you should set the type for
this to intruder (i.e. to 03). A movement detector, on the other
hand, can be used for more than just intruder detection. It can also be
used for sensing activity, and hence used for inactivity monitoring.
Consequently, even if you intend to use a movement detector for intruder
detection do not set its type to be intruder (i.e. 03). Set its type to be
movement (i.e. 08 or 09)—it can still be used for intruder detection.
Types of movement sensors.
You will often hear movement sensors
referred to as PIRs (Passive Infrared Radiation detectors). However,
this is only one sort of movement sensor. Others, such as pressure
mats, or those that rely upon beams of light being broken, will work
just as well with the Lifeline 4000.
Entry/exit and non-entry/exit.
Some movement detectors will always be triggered when the
owner or resident of a property leaves after setting the intruder detector to
on
. These sensors will
also be triggered when the resident returns, just prior to the intruder detector being turned off.
The resident needs enough time to leave the property, and enough time on return to turn the
intruder detection off. Lifeline 4000 will allow the resident this time, but only for sensors that are
set to be the exit/entry type.
If a movement detector is likely to be set off as the resident leaves or enters their home then
set the type of the trigger to be 08 (i.e. movement sensor entry/exit). If the movement sensor is
not likely to be set off when the resident leaves or enters—it might be in a bedroom for example—
then set the type to be 09 (i.e. movement sensor non-entry/exit).
