Configurable Zone Type 90
Enter the appropriate value for each entry, 1-10, based on the charts on the next page.
To calculate the
value for each entry, add the values of the selected options in each of the entry’s columns shown in the
respective chart (one option per column). For example, to program entry 2 for “alarm response to
short,” “auto restore on,” but not a “vent zone,” enter 5 (“1” for alarm short + “4” for auto restore-yes +
“0” for vent zone-no).

Zone Type 90 Report Codes
Enter the desired 3-digit Contact ID® report codes for alarms and troubles occurring on zones assigned
to this zone type.
Press [∗] to accept and continue.
Important Notice on Report Codes: To avoid confusion at the central station, it is recommended
that existing Contact ID® codes be used with configurable zone types whenever possible. See list in
System Communication section and/or check with the central station for a complete list of Contact
ID® report codes. If none of the codes are suitable, choose a code in the reserved range of 750-789
(reserved for configurable zone type report codes) and make sure to define the code with your central
station.
