Area Set Up On Texecom Premier Elite 24

[robl2821]

Hi all,

 

I'm probably being really dim and missing something really obvious but any help appreciated.

 

I've installed a Premier Elite 24, simple system, one kepad, 6 contacts. Programming using Wintex. 

 

I've set up area A as all devices for a simple full set. 

 

I was looking to use area B as a night mode which would inlcude 4 of the circuits, just on the ground to allow people to move around upstairs. 

 

I've been through the zone set up and ticked area B on those I wish to include and created a seperate user code just for area B as a 'night pin'.  I've also made sure the keypad is ticked for both areas. 

 

Under the 'Area' tab, under areas, Area B is set to 'Entry/Exit' and under 'Area Arm Suites' to timed exit. 

 

When I set area B it countdown and shows part armed etc, but the system then doesn't re-act when any of the doors are opened.  If I change one of the circuits so it's just on area B it then works. 

 

Is this a limitation of the panel and circuits can only be assigned to one area or have I ballsed up somewhere?

 

Thanks

 

Rob

You should use the part set option for this not the Areas

There is an answer on the Texecom website, something to do with you have to assign the ccts to both areas. I've a similar problem. 

I need a final door set on full set, silent set on night part arm but timed, and then another part arm but as in full set but without a particular cct.

Mind f@ck.

Piece of pi55, do NOT use multiple areas, assign all zones to area A then use the part omit options, tell it what zones you want off in what part set.
