Partitions in Comfort

[slychiu]

if you arm the system in the partition it activates my electronic locks to lock (this was originally set up pre partitioning when activating alarm, in alarm responses).

Alarm-related Responses need some consideration because partitions are involved

It depends on what triggers the Response
For example, if your Away Mode Response locks the door, then arming to away mode in any Partition will lock the door

Comfigurator 3.11.6 has different Security Mode Responses for each partition


If the Response is from Alarm Type Response eg System Armed then the Response will act on all partitions. To act on a specific Partition, you have to Set Partition number in the Alarm Response

There is a bug in Comfort firmware 7.113
if the firmware is upgraded from an older version some of the higher numbered unused zones may have nonzero partitions due to unused memory locations now having a meaning

The effect of this is it causes a problem while arming if zones are open. The announcement and beeping on the keypads is interrupted and continuous and the system cannot arm. The keypad and Comfigurator cannot sign in  until after 5 minutes, the Arming abort Time.

The work-around if the system gets into this state is to wait for 5 minutes when the arming aborts. Then check the zones settings in Comfigurator make sure that all zones do not have Partititions>0 (provided  this system does not use Partitions), and do a write to Comfort

A new firmwware will be released shortly
