How to configure a point to disarm one or more areas but not re-arm if tripped again.

[#1]

Note: This article only works with B8512G, B9512G and B-Series panel types.

Example Situation:

The panel is required to disarm on access granted events from an acess control system but not rearm on additional access granted events.

Solution:

A point can be configured to activate a custom function and disarm a selected area (or areas). This point could be tripped by an access system, disarming the area(s).  Additional trips of the configured point would not rearm the area(s).

• Program a custom Function to perform the disarm of a selected area(s). 

2.  Select the Function to be Disarm, then in the field: Parameter1:Area# check the box(s) for the area(s) to disarm.

3.  Select a Point Index which is not used by any other point in the system.  Set the Point Type to CUSTOM FUNCTION, set the Custom Function (at the bottom of the point index items) to the CF to be used for disarming.

4.  Assign this Point Index to the point to be tripped by the access system.

• The Custom Function will activate upon the first trip of the point and disarm the area(s). Additional trips of the point will not re-arm the area because the the custom function only contains the function to disarm.
