Jack2000 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 small prob with Optima compact gen 4 - LED only. all set up and all working OK - but although exit timer fine (as default), on entrance alarms immediately when door open - and can't seem to make the set up work to give an entry time. went 'timed zones' , 'entry time' setting procedure and no change, then set back to factory default (which should give 30 secs) - no change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack2000 Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 thanks folks - entry door has its own zone (2) every other works fine, the door opening causes immediate alarm. tried "entry time" set to 30 secs (03) and that didn't work, so maybe its the program thing. set timed zone says - Press [PROG] to give a choice of programs. LED’s 1, 2 and 3 are flashing. • Select program [1, 2 or 3]. If program 1 is selected, LED 1 is ON. -------- and I assume prog 1 (default anyway) is the one • Press [2] to enter into Timed Zones. The first zone can now be set as timed or untimed. • To edit the other zones press [Number] to go to a particular zone. -------- 2 toggled on for timed but as Sixwheeled say - should that zone be inhibited? - cos being thick I am confused at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack2000 Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 thanks James - when I had the time I swapped it to Z1 and its now OK on entry - I thought I'd leave it on 2 originally thinking any zone could be programmed anyhow - obviously I am thick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inhibit Zones This is a zone which, on setting the panel, allows access to the entry/exit zone. However, if the panel is set and a time inhibited zone is triggered before an entry/exit timed zone then an alarm will be generated immediately.
