General Information

The D279A Independent Zone Control is an arming station that provides you with control over a specified area of your security system. The D279A gives you independent control of this area, regardless of whether the rest of your security system is armed or disarmed. Features of the D279A include protection status display indicators, entry and exit delay time, prewarning sounder, individual zone annunciation, panic alert, and a user-programmable passcode.

Zone Control Display

The Zone Control has three protection status display indicators: a DELAYED loop indicator, an INSTANT loop indicator, and an ARMED indicator.

DELAYED - When this green indicator is lit, the delay area is ready to be armed. When the DELAYED indicator is not lit, the area is not ready to be armed (check doors, windows, and motion detector vicinities in the delay area).

INSTANT - When this green indicator is lit, the instant area is ready to arm. When the INSTANT indicator is not lit, the area is not ready to arm (check doors, windows, and motion sensors in the instant area). Both the DELAYED and INSTANT indicators must be lit before arming.

ARMED - The red ARMED indicator is lit when the area is armed and not lit when the area is not armed. During exit delay (after the passcode is entered) the ARMED indicator blinks. The indicator will not blink with alarm memory.

Note: Both the DELAYED and INSTANT indicators must be lit before arming.

Digital Keypad

The Zone Control has a digital keypad used to enter your passcode into the security system. It is your passcode which arms and disarms the delayed and instant areas.

When entering your passcode, if the Zone Control emits a short warning tone each time you touch a key, check the DELAYED and INSTANT indicators. Both LEDs should be lit. If either LED is NOT lit, check doors, windows, and motion detector vicinities in the protected area.

Arming

1.Ensure that the area is secure. The green DELAYED and INSTANT lights must be on.

2.Arm the area by entering your passcode.

The red ARMED indicator light flashes on and off to indicated exit delay time (approximately 60 seconds). When the ARMED indicator lights steadily, the delay and instant areas are armed.

Disarming

Disarm the area by entering your passcode.

When the area is armed, you must enter the premises through a designated entry door to prevent an instant alarm condition. Opening the delay door starts a 30-second delay during which the Zone Control sounds a warning to remind you to disarm the system. To disarm the system, enter your personal passcode before the entry time expires. If you enter through a wrong door, or fail to disarm the system before the entry delay expires, you will generate an alarm.

Note: If both the DELAYED and INSTANT loops are faulted at the end of the exit delay, an entry delay will be initiated (not an instant alarm).
