Disarming Procedure

This command disarms the alarm system. Depending on how the partition is programmed, results can be different.

• Manual disarming: This is done at the manual operation window at the workstation console by an authorized operator. The alarm partition will disarm right away, unless a “no disarm” schedule is valid, this command will initiate the “postpone” delay.
• Disarming at a door reader using a card: Disarming is done at the door reader (or keypad) defined as “disarming reader” in the system.

General Rules:

• Disarming is done by presenting a card at the door reader (or entering a number on the keypad) defined as “disarming reader” in the alarm system definition menu.
• Manual disarming is only permitted by a card with the defined disarming access level, which must include access to the disarming reader in question.
• If there is a door contact defined for the door, then the door must be opened for disarming to take effect. If there is no contact, you don't have to open the door.
• If the arming reader is also defined as “disarming reader”, the door will have to be open to disarm the system. On the other hand, if a “no disarm” schedule is effective, a disarming request will postpone the arming of the system.
