In every alarm system Zoning and Partitions are very Important Parts to design during implimention.
What is a Partition?
A partition refers to a sectioned-off portion of an alarm system that can be operated independently from the rest of the system. A partition can only be operated with a code that has been assigned access to that partition or with the Master Code. This can be useful for restricting access.
What is Zoning?
Basically alarm zones are how a security system manages and controls sensors. The sensors are assigned to zones and when a sensor is trigger the system informs you which zone a sensor has been triggered. … When a sensor has been triggered the zone number will be displayed on the control panel.
Planning a Security System / Burglar Alarm
The first step when installing any alarm system is to determine what you will install and where. Below is a typical floor plan from a home builder that has been marked up to indicate where alarm components will be installed. These simple plans are the type that builders normally provide to people looking to build a new home and can sometimes be found on the builder’s web site. Marking up a copy of these plans is a good place to start to determine how many window & door sensors and motion detectors you will need to protect the entire home.
