Veritas r8 two entry/exit?

[houstonwehaveaproblem]

Hi

I have a veritas r8

it doesn’t have door contacts at present. I have two control panels. One in entrance hall
And one in side garage/store.

The current entry zone is the entrance hall pir. I would like to set the garage/store to also be an entry/exit zone so I can deactivate the system when entering the garage.

I tried to set garage zone to entry/exit but when set it goes straight into alarm.

I will hopefully be adding a door contact in the garage in the new year but for now would like the garage pir set to entry/exit as well as the main entrance hall.

From engineering
176 prog
This will make zone 7 entry/exit

Thanks

will this keep zone 1 as entry exit too?

Yes
Each zone has its own program number 11,12,13,14 etc then you select what you want device to do ,entry exit,guard etc the press prog to confirm,
176 prog is entry exit you should have red LED lit on 6 when you press prog
173 prog is guard zone and will have red LED lit on 3 when you press prog.
If you enter zone number LED will tell you what zone is programmed for the press prog to confirm.
Hope this helps you understand better.
Don't forget to hit Thanks

zone 3

 

[Handymanjo]

3 is guard alarm
176 prog
You should have 6 lit up on keypad

Ah yes 6 is showing

 

[Handymanjo]

That's correct
Go and set alarm and enter garage,should start entry timer.

garage is zone 7 though?

Quick start guide
When in engineering 176 prog will change the detector on zone 7 to entry exit .
Press 17 from programming and 6 should be pin display.
If you are not getting 6 then you are doing something wrong.
