Zone Assignment
This section is for assigning type and options for each individual zone.
By default, the first 16 zones on the main panel are assigned to area 1. If zone expanders have been
enrolled, the zones must be added to an area, in order to have the PC6010 monitor them.
Upon entering this section, the zones which have not been assigned to the selected area will be
displayed. Use [<][>] keys to scroll through the zones. Press the [*] key to add the zone to the selected
area.
When you add zones 017-256 to an area, the system checks that the expander module (PC6108A) is
present. If the system cannot find an PC6108A to support the new zone, the keypad displays “Zone
Hardware Is Not Present” for 3 seconds. This is a warning message that an additional zone expander may
be required. The zone still will be added to the area. When adding zones for access control, program the
zone assignment for the PC6820 door, before adding the zone in the Area programming section. This
way, the PC6010 recognize that the zone is not on an expander module, and will not display the “Zone
Hardware Is Not Present” message.
When you edit the Zone Type or Zone Options of a zone that has been added to more than one area, the
keypad displays the message “Other Areas Have Changed” for 3 seconds. This indicates that the zone
programming you are changing affects other areas.
Global Zones: If zone(s) are added to more than one area (global zones), the zone(s) will follow the
following rules:
• A global zone is not armed until all areas which the zone belongs to are armed.
• A global delay zone will follow the longest delay of all areas which it is assigned to. For example, if area
1 has an entry delay of 30 seconds, and area 2 has an entry delay of 45 seconds, the global delay zone
will not be in alarm until the area 2 entry delay expires.
• If a global zone is manually bypassed and any area that the zone belongs to is disarmed, the bypass will
be removed from the zone.
• A zone which is assigned to multiple areas will send alarms and restorals for the area of the LOWEST
number. (Example - A zone is assigned to areas 2, 3 and 4. This zone will only transmit events for area 2.)
All logs will still be made for each area to which the zone is assigned.
• If there is a global zone in the alarm list and the alarm is reset by APS or ODS software, the sensor reset
will only be performed in the area reset by APS/ODS. Sensors will not be reset in all the areas assigned
to the zone.
Use this section to edit zones which have already been assigned to an area. Upon entering this section,
the zones which have been assigned to the selected area will be displayed. Use the [<] [>] keys to toggle
through the zones, and the [*] key to select the zone to edit.
Edit Zone Type/Options: When you edit the Zone Type or Zone Options of a zone that has been added
to more than one area, the keypad displays the message “Other Areas Have Changed” for 3 seconds. This
indicates that the zone programming you are changing affects other areas.
Use this section to delete zones from the area. When selecting which zone to delete, the keypad will only
display zones which are assigned to the area.
