What Areas Do
Your security system allows
you to divide (or "partition") a
building into as many as eight
areas, regions that can be
armed and disarmed individu-
ally. Designed primarily for
commercial settings, areas can
limit an individual's access to
portions of a building.
A building that is divided into
areas may include a common
area, an area most system us-
ers can arm and disarm. The
first diagram shows how a
building could be divided to in-
clude a common area.
Buildings may also be parti-
tioned without a common area.
As the second diagram shows,
this setup works well for struc-
tures with tenant spaces, but no
lobby or shared hallway.
Each system user is assigned
rights to one or more areas.
Users can arm and disarm only
those areas to which they have
rights.
