Hi,

I have two questions.

1. How do I get an output to work only during a intruder alarm and turn off when the alarm is reset?

2. Why when the SEM01-M2 loses power does the system not warn me? The slave and main have different mains inputs. So the main will still have power but I thought it would still let me know

Thanks.

In Alarm Types > Intruder Alarm, assign the alarm Response to turn on the output

In Alarm Types > Disarm, assign the Alarm Response to turn off the output

There is a simpler way in the beta firmware ULT 7.030

Status > Outputs has Set/Unset Outputs. You just enter the output name/number

This was done because in a power failure affecting a large number of houses, this would cause too many extra dial outs to the monitoring system so many alarm systems disable the alarm for a slave power failure. The low battery alarm for SEM will warn you
