System Overview (cont’d)
Protection Points and Groups
The FOCUS 200 PLUS monitors up to 255 protection points in up to eight
independent fire and burglary groups. The system lets you designate group
names in ways that make sense for your specific needs. For example, “Office”
and “Warehouse” could cover two sets of entry doors that activate/deactivate
independently.
Turning groups on and off allows different tasks to be carried out at different
times of day, all while maintaining the optimal level of safety and security.
By scrolling through the FOCUS 200 PLUS menu options, you may turn
groups on/off in the AWAY or STAY mode, or bypass points at any time for
maintenance or servicing. The system also allows you to check points or
groups to review their status, and alerts you to the precise location of an
activated alarm. Although some features may be manually activated or
deactivated at any time, FOCUS 200 PLUS also features powerful
scheduling capabilities for automated, worry-free operation.
The combination of point/group control and scheduling features allows
operators of the system to construct versatile scenarios quickly and with no
previous programming knowledge.
NOTE: Keypads assigned to group 1 will duplicate all entry, exit, and alarm
sounds generated by the keypads assigned to other groups.
User Access and Security
Each FOCUS 200 PLUS card/key reader acts as a security gateway to your
workplace, or to a specific area where certain employees have access and
others do not. This feature, which operates on manual-input codes, Wiegand,
proximity, magnetic cards, or Marlok keys, allows tracking of all security-
related activities, either through a continuous printout or by accessing the
1000-event history log. The FOCUS 200 PLUS supports up to 999 different
users (maximum 255 user codes, the rest are access cards only) and various
levels of security with all the flexibility you will need to assure that every
employee has the proper level of access to the workplace areas.
