Activity Monitoring and Auto-
Arming 
General Operation 
Activity monitoring can be set to transmit an 
alarm and/or arm areas automatically when 
activity is not detected for a specific length of 
time. Per the operator's selections, this 
automated arming can: 
+ Be triggered by "No Activity", and/or; "User 
Count  a preset minimum value" remaining in 
effect for a set duration (timeout value). 
+ Pertain to inputs set as "Activity Monitor" 
custom points, sensors on the entry/exit route, 
and/or door openings.  
+ Arm to ON or Stay 
+ Occur with or without an optional configurable 
delay time before arming 
(to allow users additional time to either trigger 
activity, or leave the area) 
+ Can operate either any time, or only outside of 
an Arm/Disarm schedule selected on the 
"Scheduling" tab for the specific area (if 
applicable). 
Tip
: The arming level(s) for which an Activity 
Monitor input point will monitor activity is 
determined by the "Level" setting for the 
Custom Point Type (Off, Off/Stay, or "Always"). 
(The rest of the time, the point(s) will be treated 
as a standard point (Burg., supervisory, etc.--
per selections for the custom point type). 
Locator: Config., Custom Point Types, 
("Preprocess: Activity Monitor"), "Level" 
and "Class". 
Steps 
1)  Define a "Custom Point Type", being sure 
to select: "Preprocess: Activity Monitor", 
and other settings as desired. Locator: 
Configuration, Custom Point Types. 
2)  Set up any activity monitoring input 
points, being sure to assign your custom 
point type to each one. 
Locator: Configuration, Input Points. 
3)  For each applicable area, make 
selections as desired for the "Activity" 
and "Auto Arm" screens. 
Locator: Configuration, Areas, 
"Activity " and "Auto Arm ". 
 Activity  ( V4.20) 
These settings allow enabling and configuring 'activity' 
detection for each area. This:  Pertains to custom 
'Activity Monitor' input points;  Can include persons 
gaining entry at doors/gates;  Can include detection 
via input points on the "Entry/Exit Route". More: 
"Related
", & "Auto Arm". 
- Timeout: This allows disabling 'activity' 
detection for each area, or setting the maximum 
duration between activity-detections for it to still 
be considered 'in effect'. (The status is reset if 
activity is not detected for this duration.) 
Notes: Immediate = 1 second. Short durations are 
not recommended. This is the only method for 
resetting 'activity' status. 
- Include EE Route: Whether or not inputs on the 
entry/exit route for this area will be monitored as 
well as 'Activity Monitor' inputs; 
- Include Doors: Whether or not persons 
entering and leaving the area will trigger the 
'activity' status as well (i.e., door openings). 
- Alarm on No Activity
 (V4.4): This causes an 
alarm to be generated if a timeout occurs 
without activity being detected.

 Auto Arm  ( V4.20) 
These settings allow having an area arm automatically: 
 When a/the door closes;  When there is 'No Activity', 
and/or;  When no one is present (user-count  
'minimum'). Auto-arming based on 'activity' and 'user-
count' can also be tied to the arm/disarm schedule for 
each area.
