A sensor is an external security device connected to the system.

The sensor may be operated in the following modes:

  1. Circuit closure: the sensor is armed when the circuit is open, and whenever the sensor circuit is closed, an alarm event is registered.
  2. Circuit interruption: the sensor is armed when the circuit is closed, and whenever the sensor circuit is interrupted, an alarm event is registered.

Whenever an alarm event is registered by a sensor, the Operator should confirm that the event did take place.

Each security device of the Sensor type is equipped with an intrusion sensor, which is a physical device, giving a specific warning to the Operator that an alarm event has occurred. The map displays symbols of the following types of intrusion sensors:

  1. Infra Red;
  2. Ceiling;
  3. Glass;
  4. Heat;
  5. Window;
  6. Flue gas;
  7. Hermetic contact;
  8. No specified type.

To operate the sensors, the Operator uses the map (see the Using sensors section) or pre-defined macro commands (Run menu in the main control panel).
