**************************************************************************
The IDS shall have the capacity to collect, communicate, and display a
minimum of [8] [_____] programmable sensor zone alarms [and to enable
control of one or more response devices in each of the sensor zones].
[When a sensor zone includes a combination of multiple detection devices,
the system shall maintain the capability to identify individual detection
devices in an alarm state.] A single alarm shall be annunciated within
approximately 2 seconds after sensor transducer or other detection device
activation.

Alarms
**************************************************************************
NOTE: For a wireless transmission system delete "d.
Line Fault."
**************************************************************************
Alarm shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
a.
Intrusion detection
b.
Tamper
c.
Fail-safe
d.
Line fault
e.
AC power loss
f.
Low battery in control communicator.
2.3.4.1
Intrusion Detection
Sense and respond with visible and audible signals the activation of
detection sensors.
2.3.4.2
Tamper
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Each tamper loop requires a dedicated sensor
zone in the control communicator. Do not use one
tamper loop for an entire building since it would be
difficult to trace the violated device or box.
Instead, zone tamper loops by areas to more
conveniently locate a violated device or box.
**************************************************************************
Enclosures, cabinets, housings, boxes, raceways, and fittings with hinged
doors or removable covers which contain circuits of the intrusion detection
system, sensor devices, and associated power supplies shall be provided
with cover having corrosion-resistant tamper switches. Tamper alarms shall
be annunciated to be clearly distinguishable from intrusion detection
alarms. Tamper switches on doors which must be opened to make normal
maintenance adjustments to the system and to service the power supplies
shall be of the push/pull-set, automatic-reset type. Tamper switches shall
have the following features:
a.
Inaccessibility until the switch is activated;
