Magellan MG-6060 User Manual

Magellan supports up to 16 wireless zones where each zone can 
be configured with a different zone definition and option. Each 
zone can also have a voice label recorded for it. Magellan’s 
zones can be programmed using section programming or 
through the Installer menu.

See Quick Setup on page 4 for more information on zone 
programming using the Installer menu.

After assigning and setting up your wireless transmitters, define 
the associated zone's parameters. The zone parameters define 
the type of zone and how the control panel will react when an 
alarm condition occurs on that zone. These zone parameters are 
programmed into one section as detailed in Figure 16 on page 
13.

Sections [001] to [016] represent zones 1 through 16 
respectively, where the first three digits in each of these sections 
represents the zone's definition. To disable a zone, enter 000 
and then press the [#] key. There are 15 available Zone 
Definitions, which are described as follows:

Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 001

When the system is armed and a zone defined with Entry Delay 
1 opens, the console will generate an alarm after the 
programmed Entry Delay 1 Timer elapses. This is to provide 
users with enough time to enter the protected area and disarm 
the system. Entry Delay zones are commonly used at the entry/
exit points of the protected area (i.e. front/back door, garage, 
etc.). Using different Entry Delays (see Entry Delay 2 below) is 
useful when, for example, one entry point requires a longer delay 
than the other entry point.

Entry Delay 1 Timer
Section [060]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default 

= 45 seconds

Enter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255 
seconds into section [060] to program the Entry Delay 1 
Timer.

Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 002

Entry Delay 2 zones are identical to the Entry Delay 1 zones (see 
Entry Delay 1 on page 13), except it uses a separate Entry Delay 
Timer.

Entry Delay 2 Timer
Section [061]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default 

= 45 seconds

Enter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255 
seconds into section [061] to program the Entry Delay 2 
Timer.

Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 003

When an armed Follow zone opens, the console will immediately 
generate an alarm unless an Entry Delay zone opens first as 
described in the situations below:

•

If an armed Follow zone opens after an Entry Delay zone 
opens, the console waits until the Entry Delay Timer has 
elapsed before generating an alarm.

•

If an armed Follow zone opens after more than one Entry 
Delay zone opens, the console will wait until the Entry Delay 
Timer of the zone that opened first has elapsed.

This feature is commonly used when a motion detector is 
protecting the area occupied by the entry point keypad. This will 
prevent the motion detector from causing an alarm when a user 
enters through the entry point to disarm the system.
