2.3 Pre-installation Instruction
▲. Alarm Types
1)Zone: A host device contains a number of different zones, which indicates
that the system can be connected with many independent detectors. Each
zone can be connected with different types of sensors and set as a certain
zone through programming, so as to make operation more convenient and
alarms more reliable.
2)Wireless zone: It is a zone which is wireless connected with the host device
by a certain emissive frequency and specified encoded mode.
3)Wired zone: It is a zone which is connected with the host device through
cables. Generally all the wired zones use conventional four-wire detectors.The
detectors output the switching signals. Therefore the wired zone use 2.2kΏ
line end resistance to monitor.If the system detects there is 2.2kΏ resistance
on the circuit, it means the system is in normal condition;if the system detects
the resistance on the circuit is zero(short circuit) or infinite(circuit break), it will
make alarms.As the output modes of detectors are different, the connection
modes of resistance are also different. However,there is a principle: the loop
resistance should be 2.2kΏ and the resistance should be connected at the end
of the detector. The general response speed of wired zone is 300 milliseconds
to 500 milliseconds.
4)Disabled zone: The area is not in use.
5)Delay zone: It is used for the main entry/exit route, e.g. front entrance and
main entrance. The area will be effective when the out delay after arming
finishes.When the zone is triggered, otherwise it will give alarms.The control

User Instruction Manual
14
device will buzz as soon as the time delay starts(as a cue signal of disarming
the system). It is effective in away arming conditions.
6)Perimeter zone: It is used for external door, windows and guardrails. If they
are damaged,the alarms will occur.The zone has no time delay function.It is
effective in away arming conditions.
7)Burglar alarm zone: It is not an emergency zone and not at the entry or the
exit.It is mainly used for internal defense.In case of detecting invasion, the
alarms will be activated.The area has no time delay function.It is effective in
away arming conditions.
8)24-hour zone refers to the zone in which the emergency buttons are used for
personal emergencies or various emergency events.The zone is not controlled
by arming or disarming.
9)Emergency zone: In this zone, the emergency buttons are used for
emergency alarms of banks,jewelry counters(generally without sound), and
bedside(generally with sound).It can define if the siren works or not on
site.The alarm information can be reported to the central station during the
process.The area is not controlled by arming or disarming.
10)Fire alarm zone: It is used for the 24-hour monitoring of smoke detectors
and heat detectors. When the area is triggered, the fire alarm will be
made.The siren will make sound on site and alarm situation will be reported to
the central station at the same time.The zone is not controlled by arming or
disarming.
11)Away delay: It refers to a certain period after system arming, in which the
system will not make alarms if the zones have time delay functions.After the
time delay finishes, these zone start working.
12)Entry delay: In case the zone has the time delay function,the armed system
will not make alarm immediately and allow the operator to disarm the system
within the delay period.If the system isn’t disarmed when the time delay
finishes, the alarm will be made.
13)Alarm output: Each host device may output 12VDC voltage to the siren as

User Instruction Manual
15
the local alarm.
Note: the output current should not be exceeded 500mA, otherwise, the host
device may not work properly.
14)Alarm communication: The device has built-in alarm communicator which
can output the situation to the alarm center through telephone line
dial-up.There are totally 2 groups of terminals for connection,i.e. input
terminals and output terminals.Telephone line is connected to LINE port and
telephone is connected to the output port TEL.Normally the telephone is
operated in good condition. In case any problems occur,the telephone will be
cut off automatically and alarms will be activated.
15)Arm/disarm:It is an instruction for the alarm host controller to set arming
and disarming.The alarm host will take relevant actions in accordance with the
received instruction.
16)Away arming: Set all the detectors in the alarm state.
17)Home arming:It is also called stay arming.While the host device is in the
state of alert, by the artificial setting, some functions of the detectors may be
enabled and other functions may be disabled. It not only has effective safety
functions but also allows people to move freely in the alarming space.
18)Self-learning code: It refers to the setting process of establishing
communication between wireless detectors and alarm host devices.In other
words,It means self-learning automatic code registration or inputting the code
manually by the keyboard between wireless detectors, remote control device
and wireless alarm host. Each zone or remote control device may perform
code registration or elimination respectively.
19)Remote control: Dial up remotely through telephone.After the password
verification, it can realize remote arming and disarming, indoor movement
monitoring,activating the high pitched siren,electric switch control,remote
restoring the factory defaults, and other operations.
20)ID:To distinguish different detectors or monitoring host, each detector or
monitoring host has different ID code(address coding).As the unique mark,ID

User Instruction Manual
16
code has been preset before the detectors or monitoring host leave the
factory.
21)Admin password/User password: The Admin password refers to the
password set by system administrator for host system; while the user
password refers to the password set by users in daily using process to perform
arming,disarming,remote control, and other operations.The main purpose of
setting password is to ensure the safety of the system.
▲.Video monitoring type
1)Motion detection:It means that the system is capable of automatically taking
proper actions in respond to the changes of the screen status,e.g. someone is
passing or the lenses are moved. It can set arming and disarming time,
detection sensitivity, and the rotation of camera to its proper preset position.
2)Mask setting: As for some important department or some fields related to
privacy. We may use mask setting to avoid displaying these fields and ensure
the security of the privacy.
3)UPNP:(Universal Plug and Play), it is a common name for a group of
protocols.In simple words,UPNP is equal to automatic port mapping.
4)DDNS: DDNS is to map user’s dynamic IP address to a fixed domain name
service. When user is connecting to the network,the client program will
transfer the dynamic IP address of the host device to the server program on
the ISP server by means of information transfer .And the server program will
be responsible for providing DNS services and realizing dynamic DNS. In
other words, dynamic DNS will capture user’s ever-changing IP address and
match it with the domain name, and then other network users may
communicate with each other by means of domain name.
5)FTP: It is used for the two-way transmission of control files on the
internet.Users may use FTP to connect their own devices with all the servers
using FTP protocols in the world and access the server to obtain large amount
of programs and information.The main function of FTP to connect their own

devices with all the server using FTP protocols in the world and access the
servers to obtain large amount of programs and information. The main function
of FTP is to enable users to connect a remote computer, on which FTP server
program is running, to check what kind of files there are on the remote
computer.And then copy those files from the remote servers to the local
computer, or send the files on the local computer to the remote servers.
