Pulse Times

Pulse times allow an output or group of outputs to be pulsed for the duration of an area state. For example, the keypad beeper can be used to make short beeps for an exit delay, then a long continuous beep for entry delay.

Pulse times are measured in tenths of a second, or 100ms. A pulse time of 10 equates to 1 second.

Setting the Pulse On to 1 and the Pulse Off to 9, provides a short pulse (such as a short beep or flash) every second.

 

Setting both the Pulse On and Pulse Off values to 1 provides a rapid pulse on/pulse off.

 

Setting both values to 5 provides a slow, steady pulse on/pulse off.

 

  • If the Pulse On and Off values are both set to zero (the default setting), the pulse is disabled and the output will remain on for the duration of the cycle time
  • If Pulse On is given a value but Pulse Off is set to zero, the output will pulse (flash or beep) once only, then remain off
