Zone:
A zone is an area within the protected site under supervision of a specific detector. During programming, the
installer allows the
control panel
to learn the detector’s identity code and links it to the desired zone. Since the zone is
distinguished by number and name, the control panel can report the zone status to the user and register in its memory
all the events reported by the zone detector. Instant and delay zones are “on watch” only when the control panel is
armed, and other (
24-hour
)
zones
are “on watch” regardless of whether the system is armed or not.
Zone Type:
The zone type determines how the system handles alarms and other signals sent from the device.
