David Paxton Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Access needs to be ticked on any zone you may walk past. also worth checking that global option 58 (remote arm instant) is turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas about the latest problem i put on the previous page? Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Paxton Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 You have miss understood what I meant by access follow these steps after you have entered engineer menu 1. zone setup 2. select zone 3. you are now in zone attributes. Turn on option 6 ( should show an A ) Do this for any zone that is open your exit route. also turn zones you changed back to guard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hallway has Access turned on. The reason I turned the others from guard to guard access is because sometimes we will arm the system whilst someone is still in one room so that they hurry up and get out. That should work as intended right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think there's anyway Control4 could fix it or give an option to disable it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another limitation I have found, you can part arm under the menu however if you use the programming Tab to part arm via a keypad it instead does a full set.

What did Texecom say about getting around that bit? Is there a way to rename the Part Arms to something more user friendly? And thanks, I'll bear that in mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivam Paw Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 One other thing I’ve found - if you cancel an arm from the touchscreen or keypad whilst it’s counting down on the touch screen...the countdown continues all the way down to 0 and then shows disarmed even though it should’ve stopped the countdown way earlier. I had a panic attack whilst showing someone the system and thinking that it was about to sound the alarm😬 is this something that happens with y’all or is there a workaround?

Shivam Paw Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Just done a bit more debugging. It looks like Part Arms aren't working at all from C4. It begins the Part Arm and the countdown begins, and then it just gives the green button: disarmed, ready to arm after a few seconds. I've set 7 of the 8 Zones to Guard. They are all omittable and have Access Attribute 1. The 8th Zone is the hallway which is Entry/Exit 1, omittable & has Access with it. Zone 3&4 which are upstairs, also has the attribute for Part 1 Omit Zone 5 has an attribute for Part 2 Omit When using the keypad, it all seems to work as needed, however if I use C4 to try and Part Arm it doesn't work. I'll try and debug it more in the morning but for now I need sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivam Paw Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Part Arms work The only issues I have found now are the countdown issue (it doesn't stop) and not being able to arm when movement is being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivam Paw Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Ok so it seems like there are four issues with the c4 driver: * None of the "Functions" seem to work * If exit is cancelled the C4 countdown keeps going all the way to 0 even though the keypad shows disarmed * Can't arm if motion is being made when we try to press arm Anyone with texecom able to confirm these and know if there are any fixes?
