Understanding the Scancom Reporting Protocol Data Format

The SCANCOM data format consists of 13 decimal digits divided

into 4 groups, from left to right, as shown at the right side.

Each channel is associated with a specific event as follows:

"C": Fire 5

"C": Alarm cancel

"C": Personal attack 6

"C": Emergency

"C": Intruder 7

"C": Second alarm

"C": Open/close 8

"C": Trouble messages

APPENDIX C. Programmable Zone Types

C1. Delay Zones

A delay zone has exit and entry delays set by you in the

course of programming the system. Warning beeps will

sound throughout these delays, unless you choose to mute

them.

• Exit Delay - The exit delay begins once the user arms the

system. It allows him to leave via interior zones and a

doorway before arming actually takes effect. When the

exit delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly and maintains a

slow beeping rate until the last 10 seconds, during which

it beeps rapidly. The PowerMaxExpress has two types of

delay zones, for which different delay times may be set.

• Entry Delay - The entry delay begins once the user

enters the protected area via a specific doorway (his

entry is sensed by a delay zone detector). To avoid an

alarm, he must reach the keypad via interior zones

(which become "follower zones" during the entry delay)

and disarm the system before the delay expires. When

the entry delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly until the

last 10 seconds, during which it beeps rapidly.

C2. Emergency Zones

You can provide incapacitated, sick or elderly people with

a miniature single-button transmitter to be carried on the

neck like a pendant or to be worn on the wrist like a watch.

In distress situations, they can press the button on their

transmitter, causing the PowerMaxExpress to send an

emergency call to the central monitoring station or to

private telephones designated by the installer.

To make this possible, define the required number of

zones as emergency zones and enroll a portable

transmitter to each one of these zones. When completed,

ask the master user to distribute these transmitters to their

potential users.

C3. Fire Zones

A fire zone uses smoke detectors and is permanently

active (a fire alarm is triggered regardless of whether the

system is armed or disarmed). Upon detection of smoke, a

pulsating siren sounds immediately and the event is

reported via the telephone line.

C4. Flood Zone

A flood zone is permanently active (a flood alarm is

triggered regardless of whether the system is armed or

disarmed). Upon detection of flood leak, the event is

reported via the telephone line.

C5. Gas Zone

A gas zone is permanently active (a gas alarm is triggered

regardless of whether the system is armed or disarmed).

Upon detection of gas leak, the event is reported via the

telephone line

C6. Interior Zone

Interior zones are zones within the protected premises that

have nothing to do with perimeter protection. Their most

important feature is that they allow free movement within

the protected area without initiating an alarm, provided that

the system is armed in the "HOME" mode. People can

therefore stay at home and move about freely, as long as

they do not disturb a PERIMETER zone.

Once the system is armed in the AWAY mode (all zones are

protected), interior zones will initiate an alarm if violated.

C7. Interior Follower Zones

"Interior Follower" zone is a zone that is located between

entry/exit zone and the alarm system control panel. This zone

is temporarily

ignored by the alarm system during entry/exit

delay periods, to enable you to walk (without causing an alarm)

in front of a motion detector that is associated with the Interior

Follower zone, after you enter through an entry zone on the

way to the control panel, or when leaving the protected

premises after system arming.

C8. Home/Delay Zones

A zone type which functions as a delay zone when the

system is armed HOME and as a perimeter-follower zone

when the system is armed AWAY.

C9. Non-Alarm Zones

A non-alarm zone does not directly participate in the alarm

system. It can be used for chime or for optional KEY ON-

OFF feature (when enabled).

You can define the desired number of non-alarm zones and

enroll a portable transmitter or a wireless device (detector)

to this type of zone.

C10. Perimeter Zones

Perimeter zones rely on detectors designed to protect

doors, windows and walls. An immediate alarm is initiated

when such a zone is violated by opening the door/window

or by trying to break the wall.

C11. Perimeter Follower Zones

A non-entry/exit zone, typically a perimeter zone located

on an entry/exit path, that is treated as an entry/exit zone

during an entry/exit time.

C12. Temperature Zone

A temperature zone uses a wireless temperature detector to

detect both indoor and outdoor temperatures and is

permanently active. The detector monitors room temperature

using an internal sensor. For outdoor or refrigerator

installations, a waterproof temperature probe (optional) is

used. There are a total of four fixed temperature points and

the user can enable one or more temperature points.

Upon detection of change in temperature a digital

message is transmitted and the event is reported.

C13. 24-Hour Zones

24 hour zones are mainly used for PANIC buttons,

perimeter detectors and anti-tamper protection. They

therefore trigger an alarm in both armed and disarmed

states.

• 24 Hour Zone - Silent. - Upon detection, this zone

initiates a silent alarm, meaning that the sirens do not
