ELRO HIS20S Security & home automation system EXPANDED USERS MANUAL - Manual (Page 4)

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
MULTIPLE USERS
The system allows for up to 7 Users and an
Administrator to be configured. This allows the
system Event Log to maintain a record of which users
have armed and disarmed the system. Each user will
have a different Password. In addition a 3 second
voice recorder facility enables the users name to be
recorded for use with the Latch-Key facility.
Only the Administrator has access to the programming
functions and is able to configure the system.
Note: Each Remote Control Units on the system will be
recorded.
SYSTEM ARMING
The system has a ‘Fully Arm’, ‘Holiday Arm’, ‘Night Arm’
and ‘Partial Arm’. ‘Fully Arm’ and ‘Holiday Arm’ will
arm all zones while ‘Night Arm’ and ‘Partial Arm’ will
only arm certain zones. The modes can be selected
for the following purpose:
Fully Arm
When the property is left un-occupied, the ‘Fully Arm’
mode will arm all zones to protect the entire property for
whole day long.
Holiday Arm
Holiday Arm is similar to fully arm mode except it
supports the schedule and event function of home
automation. If you are away from home for a holiday,
the ‘Holiday Arm’ will arm all zones to protect the entire
property while some set devices (e.g. On/Off receiver)
will be activated at set time per your request. This will
make your house looks as occupied.
Night Arm
The system could be configured such that during the
night, detection of movements in the armed zones
would automatically trigger the Green controls to turn
on the lights so you don’t have to fumble in the dark.
This mode also supports both schedule and event
function of home automation.
Note: Green control refers to the home automation
device that is built in receiver.
Partial Arm
The system could be configured such that at noon,
‘Partial Arm’ would arm only zones protecting the lower
floor and outbuildings leaving the upper floor free for
movement without triggering the alarm.
ZONES
The system incorporates 32 wireless Alarm Zones for
the connection of the system detectors that are used to
independently monitor different areas of the property.
In addition to standard intruder protection, each zone
may also be configured to operate in one of four
modes:
- ‘24-hour Intruder’ mode provides 24 hour intruder
protection for areas/zones where continuous
monitoring is required, (e.g. gun lockers).
- ‘Fire’ mode provides 24 hour monitoring of any
Fire/Smoke detectors incorporated into the system.
- ‘Intruder’ mode allows a zone to be monitored while
the system is armed. If a detector on a test zone
is triggered an entry will be recorded in the Event
Log and an alarm will occur.
- ‘Panic/PA’ mode provides 24 hour monitoring of any
emergency being occurred. Activation of any
panic switch will immediately initiate a Full Alarm
condition.
In addition there is the facility to connect 4 hard wired
zones to the Smart Home Box, each of which is fully
configurable with the same features as the wirefree
zones (1-32).
ENTRY/EXIT DELAY
When the system is armed with Exit-Delay enabled, no
alarm signal from any detector on an active zone will be
able to initiate an alarm until the Exit-Delay has expired.
This enables the system to be armed within the
property and allows time for user to exit property
without triggering an alarm. If Exit-Delay is disabled,
detection of movements by the detector will initiate an
alarm as soon as the system begins to arm.
The system Exit-Delay may be configured among 10,
30 seconds, 1, 2 and 4 minutes or off completely.
Similar mechanism works for Entry-Delay except it’s for
user entering the property. This period of time can be
used to disarm the system before an alarm condition
occurs.
The Entry-Delay for all zone may be configured among
10, 30 seconds, 1, 2 and 4 minutes or off completely.
