Interlogix VEREX Director - Manual (Page 293)

21-0381E v4.9.1 Welcome Report Control Admin Sys Config Tech-Ref 285
The arming of the area will only be
blocked/fail if the Area’s Arm Warning
Mode is set to “Warning Tones
Continuous” or “Warning Tones
Continuous and Blocked Arming”.
Autoarming has a specific set of
requirements to be met to call a fail to arm. It
differs from manual arming - it forces to arm
system, trying to bypass the bypassable
points, ignoring fail to exit, and ignoring
regular alarms such as from a regular points
open. So if before autoarm impulse below
conditions are met, should there be a fail to
arm event, but if they occur after the impuls
(during exit delay) then the area should force
to arm, sending appropriate alarm events.
For fire points there have to be fire in area
wide and the "unlock door on fire" option
set in order to "fail to arm" event occur.
These are the conditions that we monitor in
the panel that could block an area from
arming:
1. Points in alarm - Every Time user
wants to arm the area, or there’s an
automatic arming, and there is an
alarm already. Or when manually
arming from LCD, or Director or
Arming Station, and during exit delay a
regular input becomes active.
2. Users left in area (and user count
checking is enabled) - Every Time
user wants to arm the area, and users
are still in. In cases in which user can
be informed (by Keypad or Director)
about users left and therefore is not
able arm – there is no need to send
the event – Area didn’t get the impulse
to arm.
3. Fire alarm/override - Every Time user
wants to arm the area, or there’s an
automatic arming, and there is a fire
already. Or when manually arming
from LCD, or Director or Arming
Station, and during exit delay a fire
input becomes active.
4. Schedule is suspended (automatic
arming) - In the Areas Control&Status
screen it is possible to suspend a
schedule. This means that the
schedule will be ignored for an area.
We should detect if an area does not
(auto) arm because the schedule is
suspended and set the fail to arm.
5. Arming priorities get in the way. We
currently can assign priorities to areas
for arming. If enabled, then areas with
a higher priority (1 is the highest) must
be armed before areas with a lower
priority.
6. If any of the pseudo points is active
when trying to arm in a system set for
ACPO, the arming is blocked as it is
with the points. Checking 8 of the
pseudo points:
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_MAINPANEL_TAMP
ER;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_BATTERY_TROUBL
E;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_LINE_FAILURE;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_PHONELINE;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_REPORTDEALY;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_MODULE_FAULT;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_FUSE_FAILURE;
 ACPO_ENSTANDARD_ACFAIL;
Note: The XL Panel firmware ≥ 4.58g required for this
enhancement.
