Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)
Common Lobby Operation
When an installation consists of a partition that is shared by users of
other partitions in a building, that shared partition may be assigned
as a “common lobby” partition for the system. An example of this
might be in a medical building where there are two doctors and a
common entrance area.
This option employs logic for automatic arming and disarming of the
common lobby. Partitions may be set to affect and/or attempt to arm
the common lobby. This will affect the way the lobby will react when
arming or disarming activity occurs in another partition.
Partitions that affect the lobby will cause the following to occur:
a. When the first partition that affects the lobby is disarmed, the
lobby will also be disarmed.
b. The common lobby cannot be armed unless every partition
selected to affects the lobby is armed.
c. Arming the last partition that affects the lobby will not
automatically attempt to arm the lobby.
Partitions set to arm the lobby will cause the following to occur:
a. When the first partition that affects the lobby is disarmed, the
lobby will also be disarmed.
b. The common lobby cannot be armed unless every partition
selected to affects the lobby is armed.
