Zone Number – the code number of specified zone.

Zone Name – the code name/text of specified zone. If the specified zone is triggered, system sends to the user SMS message with the entered value. It is allowed to enter up to 24 simbols.

In the section Status it is indicated which zones will be activated (check marks are selected).

All security system ESIM264 zones can be configured to work in any of the following modes, which are represented in section Zone Type:
Delay, ms – zone reaction time delay. It protects the system against possible interference. For ATZ mode the recommended minimal value is 800ms, otherwise, the recommended minimal value is 600ms.

STAY – mode enables the users to arm and disarm security while staying inside the secured premises. The zones which are configured as STAY, will not be secured if the person does not leave the premises after activating security system. By default, this function is disabled.

Tamper Name – code name of the specified tamper which can be used if zone connection types Type3 or Type5 are enabled. If the specified tamper is triggered, system sends to the user SMS message with the entered value. It is allowed to enter up to 17 simbols.

Entry Delay, s – This field is used to configure time which is dedicated to disarm the security system when users enters in the specified Delay zone. If system will not be disarmed in time, then it will cause an alarm. By default, this time is 15 seconds. This parameter can be adjusted only for Delay type zones.

Partition (Partition 0 / Partition 1) - Indicates partition in which zone operates.



4.1. Zones on Board

There is 6 zones on board (12 in ATZ mode) with the configurable parameters which is shown above. Additional actions for zones on board:

Arm-Disarm by zone – choose the zone which will work in Arm-Disarm mode. With this zone security system can be activated/deactivated with a “low” level impulse which is not shorter than 3 seconds. This mode can be set only for one zone. No resistance is connected when using 6 zone connection type and the input must be NO (normally open). If ATZ mode is enabled the impulse is transmitted through resistance. If Z2-Z6 zones are used, the impulse should be transmitted through 5.6k resistance, if Z7-Z12 zones - the impulse should be transmitted through 3.3k resistance.

ATZ Mode – When ATZ mode (zone duplication) is enabled, the zone number is increased to 12. By default, ATZ mode is disabled.



4.2. Virtual Zones

Virtual zones is used to virtually trigger system alarm and for test purposes. User can create virtual zone anytime if there is still empty spots for zones (system can handle up to 44 zones, which includes zones on board, wireless, virtual and EPGM zones).

Virtual zone is configurable in the same way as any other zone (zone on board, wireless and etc.) in the system. To create new virtual zone, press button Create New.... To remove virtual zone, select appropriate zone in virtual zones table and press button Remove Selected.



4.3. EPGM Zones

It is possible to add an additional EPGM module with zone expansion to the system. In this case, user will see all new hardwired zones in EPGM Zones section. Those zones is configurable in the same way as other zones in the system.

In case of some zones of EPGM module will not be used, user can remove them from the system. To remove specified EPGM zone from the system, click Remove Zone button. To remove all EPGM zones from the system at once, click Remove All Zones button. To restore EPGM zone, which was previously removed, select it in section Inactive zones in EPGM module (according to zone index in EPGM module) and click button Restore.
