Introduction to Security Management
General Concepts
Seamlessly Integrated Security
MONITOR AFx™ systems provide a seamless integration between managing system security and controlling personnel access at the facility. This provides assurance that unauthorized access will be detected for immediate attention, while allowing authorized persons to enter at their designated doors and times without triggering an alarm.
Feature-Rich Security
The monitoring of doors, windows, and areas within the facility can be uniquely customized to meet even the most stringent requirements for a wide array of applications and situations. The interweaving of characteristics for 'areas' and individual devices, in conjunction with authority assignments for groups of persons provides a feature-rich environment for monitoring activity, maintaining security, and managing personnel.
Access Control
(Who can go Where and W hen)
In its simplest sense, access control is the management of
WHEN
. With the addition of door-control
WHO
can go
WHERE
modules, user-access can be controlled throughout a facility as desired.
Persons authorized to enter the facility are (typically) given an access card or token, which will allow access only to specific doors at applicable times as per the person's assigned authority profile. Each reader may require entry of a PIN, and/or the presence of an assigned escort (escort mode) or any second valid user (dual custody) before the door will unlock.
Doors can also be s et to unlock and re-lock or change operating characteristics automatically at desired times. Area characteristics can also be automated based on a desired schedule, and area(s) can be set to disarm automatically whenever specific persons are granted entry.
and
Activity Monitoring and Signalling
Activity that occurs at each site can be viewed through the MONITOR AFx Director software, and can also be transmitted to a Central Monitoring Station.
How sensors are monitored--and events signal led, is based on the set tings for the spec ific device and its associated "area", in conjunction with the arming level that is presently in ef fect for each specific area.
Panels with non-shared dial-up connecti ons (or IP if
v3.3) can be set to automatically dial-in and
transfer alarms, or blocks of activity messages to a Director PC. Alarms and events are also transmitted when a connection is made with the specific panel(s)—either manually, or at scheduled times.
Centrally Monitored Systems
Centrally-monitored systems are connected to a 24-hour ULC listed Monitoring Station through telephone lines (HSC or dial-up), or through an IP connection (SIP Reporting). When the control panel detects an intrusion, fire, panic or other alarm, it automatically signals the monitoring facility. Emergency response operators will notify the appropriate local authorities in the area. Where by-laws require, alarms will be verified first.
A local alarm on your premises may not be enough to scare away some intruders, so most agree that a monitored system is a required deterrent. As well, only a centrally monitored system can provide this extra measure of protection in the event of fire and other emergencies.
Messages are transmit ted to a m onitoring s tation via the 'Bell 103' (300 baud) modem support built into each main panel, and/or an IP connection (SIP Reporting), or high-security communications (HSC).
HSC is supported via Mark7 / DVACS service in Canada. SIP Reporting is support ed beginning with

Guard Tours
Through the MONITOR AFx™ Director software, the routes taken by Guards can be initially set up, and then monitored for a specific user (guard) at any time. Each 'tour' will consist of chosen access-controlled doors, plus additional guard tour stations (check­points) that my be key-switches, or other types of input points—along with the acceptable time for the guard to arrive at each location.
Reporting
No security management system would be complete without the ability to generate reports. The MONITOR AFx Director software provides an extensive list of customizable reporting features, including various Time and Attendance reports, Guard-Tour reports, activity reporting (including
When
and
), plus printouts of the users and

configured settings for a specific account. These reports can be viewed and/or printed, and many can be saved as a text file, or archived in a viewable format.
Paging
The paging feature of the MONITOR AFx system allows the triggering of certain outputs (up to 12 separate outputs per panel) to automatically send a message to a numeric pager, letting the wearer know that a certain event has occurred (e.g., forced entry, SNAPP failure, fire, etc.). The specific events to be notified though the pager can be customized as desired through the programmable outputs configuration.
Device Control
Items can be controlled both by an authorized user at an alarm keypad, and by an operator using the MONITOR AFx Director software. Some examples include bypassing sensors, arming and disarming areas, and unlocking or re-locking doors, or changing the operating characteristics for doors (by 'area', or for individual doors). Actions can also be scheduled to occur automatically at desired times, or when a specific event occurs (such as when an area is disarmed, or when a fire alarm occurs, etc.).
Special-Use Features
A number of features are provided for special applications, including:
Condominium Support software licensing, up to 60 condominium keypads with LED display are supported per system panel, with 8 users supported per condominium unit.
Multiple-Tenant Support: be limited to working with a specific range of users and user authorities. This allows a multi­tenant facility (such as a row of shops) to be managed through a single system.
High-Security Areas and Vault Auto-Arming Areas can be 'interlocked' so only one of them can be disarmed at a time. Vault/safe areas can be auto-armed when an attendant closes the door.
Door Interlock user access until up to 3 other specific doors have been closed (and re-locked) for a specific period of time. This allows limiting the number of persons who can enter in close proximity, and/or the speed at which persons can enter a specific area.
Master Override given the authority to enter doors that would normally deny access (cards locked out, wrong time, etc.).
Exceptions: Master override does not af fect 'dual custody', card/PIN mode, or door 'interlock' issues.
Panic Token for locally or centrally-monitored personal protection.
Wandering Patient Control equipped with 'smart' wristbands, allowing their presence to be detected as they approach exterior doors, or other locations that may be of concern. An alarm can be triggered, and the door can optionally lock as the patient approaches. Specific staff members can be given the authority to cancel the alarm by presenting their token at the specific door.
Special Types of Input-Points allowing input-point monitoring to be fully customized as desired, custom input-point types can be set up to allow monitoring garage door sensors, vault/safe inputs, arm/disarm keyswitches, Guard-Tour station inputs, and work-late buttons.

Avoiding False Alarms
No matter how full-featured, and reliable a security system is, a number of steps taken to absolutely minimize the likelihood of false alarms occurring. These include:
1)
Ensuring the system's configuration
accurately reflects the requirements at the site (regarding the working times and movement of personnel during a typical workweek, etc.).
2)
Knowing how the police and fire departments
handle false alarms, and ensuring appropriate procedures have been set up with the monitoring station. For example, identifying the types of alarms where an off­site security or maintenance person is to be called either first, or instead of the police.
3)
Ensuring all authorized persons know "where
they can go and when", and have received appropriate training on the system. For example, how to disarm the area, adjust the 'work late' time, and perform other basic tasks through an LCD keypad.
To greatly minimize false alarms pertaining to

Alarm Monitoring Features
Depending on how the system is set up, specific alarms may be indicated by any of the following items:
An alarm message will appear on specific keypad(s);
Keypad 'sonalerts' (beepers) may sound;
A local siren may be triggered;
An alarm message may be transmitted to a central monitoring facility (and/or to a management PC running the MONITOR AFx Director software);
A programmable "output" may be triggered (this can cause a horn to sound, or perform any other type of automated 'switching' function);
A numeric pager may be called to let the wearer know that a specific type of alarm has occurred.
These actions can be fully cus tomized for each type of event--for each arming level t hat the system can be in at a given time (Off, Stay / Perimeter, or fully ON).
Audible Keypad Tones
Visual indications (lights and LCD menu prompts) are complemented by audible tones. These are as follows:
When Arming and Disarming
Error and Warning Tones
These tones are heard upon errors in keypad entry, selection of wrong PIN numbers and to indicate that there was an alarm (upon entry) during the last armed period.

Dealing with Alarms (what to do if the keypad is beeping)
If an alarm occurs, you must first decide if it is a valid alarm (break-in, battery failure, etc.), or a false alarm. If a valid alarm occurs, be sure to notify the appropriate persons, and/or take steps to either deal with the item yourself--if appropriate, or get yourself and others out of harm's way.
Silencing a False Alarm
An authorized user can disarm the system and inform the monitoring station not to dispatch the respective emergency service.
This feature may not be available in all areas. Consult your local security representative for more information.
The ability to clear alarms requires "Service Test" authority.
The following steps assume that you have accidentally triggered a false alarm. If an alarm has been generated, the LCD display will show the alarm, and the keypad 'sonalert' may also be emitting a steady tone.

For systems that include condominium (multi­tenant) keypads, the MONITOR AFx Director software is
required
to set up the system. Due to the complexity of a typical condominium installation, it is also recommended that condominium status be checked only through the software.
Each 'condo' keypad pertains to an individual condominium suite or other self-contained space. As such, arm/disarm functions are provided only through the condo keypads themselves.
UL / ULC Listed Installations: Condominium LED keypads have not been tested for UL or ULC listing.

For systems that include elevators, the "Status" menus will include an "Elev" selection for elevators and their associated readers. The available selections will be the same as for standard readers preceding section.
Attention:
functions are available only through the MONITOR AFx Director software. As such, it is recommended that and control tasks be performed through the software as well.
Exception: Checking a specific aspect of an elevator reader can be performed through the keypad (such as checking if it is in Card Plus PIN mode), but you will have to log in at an operator workstation to see if the floors are secure.

Residential Fire Safety / Evacuation Plan
No fire detection system should be considered 100 percent foolproof.
This fire alarm system can provide early warning of a developing fire, Such a system, however, does not ensure protection against property damage, or loss of life resulting from a fire. Any f ire alarm system can fail to warn for a number of reas ons such as: smoke not reaching a detector that is behind a closed door.
Practicing Fire Safety
Fire can grow and spread through your home very quickly. In a typical home fire, you may have as little as two minutes to escape from the time the smoke alarm sounds. Knowing how to use those minutes wisely can make a life-saving difference. That´s why home fire escape planning is so important. Developing and practicing a home fire escape plan will help you snap into action immediately if the smoke alarm sounds, so you can get out
When considering detectors for residential applications, refer to NFPA standard 72, "The National Fire Alarm Code", or t he equivalent f or your area.
The NFPA version is available at a nominal fee, from: The National Fire Protection Association, 1 Batterymarch Park, P.O. Box 9101, Quincy, MA 02269-9101.
Residential Installations
Adherence to the NFPA Standard 72 can lead to reasonable fire safety when the following items are practiced:
Minimize Hazards:
fire killers--smoking in bed, leaving children home alone, and cleaning with flammable liquids.
Provide a Fire Warning System:
deaths occur in the home. The majority, during sleeping hours. The minimum level of protection requires working smoke detectors outside each separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of the dwelling.
Never try to fight a large fi re on your own,
Notice:
and never use water when dealing with a kitchen (grease) fire. (For a small grease fire, use baking soda, or a fire extinguisher that is approved for this.)
Avoid the three traditional

quickly and safety.
Escape Plan Guidelines:
Make sure to have on each level of the home and in or near each sleeping area. Test the alarms every month by pushing the test button, and replace the batteries once a year or when the alarm chirps, warning that the battery is low. (Note: Newer smoke alarms have a signal repetition pattern of three beeps, followed by a one and a half second pause.)
When entering other buildings, including other people's homes, ask what type of emergency alarm system is in place. If it sounds, act immediately.
Draw a floor plan
doors and windows, and the location of each smoke alarm. If windows or doors have security bars, equip them with quick-release devices.
Locate two escape routes from each room. The first way out would be the door, and the second way out could be a window.
As you exit your home, close all doors behind you to slow the spread of fire and smoke.
If your exit is blocked by smoke or fire, use your second exit to escape. If you must escape through smoke, stay low and crawl under the smoke to safety. Smoke will rise to the ceiling, leaving cooler, cleaner air close to the floor. Crawl on your hands and knees, not belly, because heavier poisons will settle in a thin layer on the floor.

of your home, marking all
42 MONITOR AFx™ v3.3 LCD Keypad User's Guide
500-9030v3.3
If you live in a high-rise building, use the stairs — never the elevator — in case of fire.
Choose a meeting place a safe distance from your home and mark it on the escape plan. A good meeting place would be a tree, telephone pole, or a neighbor's home. In case of fire, everyone should gather at the meeting place.
Make sure the street number/address of your home is visible to firefighters.
Memorize the emergency number of the local fire department. Once outside, call that number immediately from a nearby or neighbor's phone, or use a portable or cellular phone you can grab quickly on the way out.
Practice your escape drill at least twice a year.
NEVER go back inside a burning building!
Apartment buildings, dormitories, and high-rises
If you live in an apartment building or dormitory (up to four stories), make sure it's protected by building-wide fire detection and alarm systems, and check with your apartment manager to ensure that those systems are regularly tested and working properly.
If you live in a high-rise, count the number of doors between your apartment and the two nearest exits. If you discover fire, sound the fire alarm and call the fire department. Leave the area quickly, taking your key and closing all doors behind you. If the building has a voice enunciation system, follow its instructions precisely, unless doing so puts you in immediate danger. If fire or smoke blocks your exits, stay in your apartment and cover all cracks and vents (using wet towels, duct tape, linens, clothing, and so forth) where smoke could enter. Telephone the fire department, even if firefighters are already at the building, and tell them where you are. Signal to firefighters for help with a light cloth. If possible, open the window at the top and bottom, but be ready to shut the window immediately.
Messages for young children
To be safe from a fire in your home, you need three things:
1. Smoke Alarms:
Make sure you have at least one smoke alarm on each level of your home. A smoke alarm makes a loud noise. When you hear a smoke alarm beep, it's telling you that there is smoke and you need to get out of your home.
Questions:
in your home? Have you ever heard your smoke alarm? W hat does it s ound like? Do you know what the smoke alarm i s telling you?
How many of you have a smoke alarm
2. A Home Fire Escape Plan:
Make a home fire escape plan with your parents or the grown-ups in your home. You'll need two ways out of every room. One way out would be the door, and the second way out may be a window. After you make your plan, practice it!
3. A Meeting Place:
Pick a place outside your home where everyone will meet after exiting. A good meeting place would be a tree, light or telephone pole, or mailbox.
