the facility’s fire panel.
During this time, the Magnetic locks are deactivated, allowing
a resident wearing a Tag to leave the facility.
The IS 3200/BR 4200 System will still alarm provided there is
still power to the system.
Graphic Display Panel

Provides staff with a visual representation of the floor being
monitored. GDPs are custom-made to a facility’s floor plan
and notify staff when an alarm condition occurs in a monitored
zone through a piezo buzzer and alarm-specific LEDs
Ingress

place.
IS 3200 System Tag
A small wristwatch-sized device that is worn by a resident or
attached to an asset.
IS 3200 System Tags are assigned to a specific resident or
asset (via the Tag Test Station and Accutech Software). Once
assigned, the computer associates a name, room number and
any other pertinent information about the resident/asset with
that Tag.

activated and to provide visual indicators for Tag detection,
alarms and escorts.

zone.
Loiter Alarm
An alarm condition, occurs when a Tag remains in the Tx
activation field for longer than a preset period of time.
Magnetic Lock

when a Tag is detected.
Specifically, it describes a Lock that remains engaged as long
as a Tag is within the Tx activation field and for an adjustable
amount of time afterwards.
Magnetic Switch
Used on a door when alarm activation is not desired unless the
door is opened when a monitored resident is near that door.
Masking
In PIR applications, limiting the beam by placing stripes of
tape over the lens.
