Swinger shut down can be triggered when a zone surpasses a threshold. Which option correctly identifies the threshold used by default?

Swinger shut down can be triggered when a zone surpasses a threshold. Which option correctly identifies the threshold used by default?

• A. Public Operating Mode
• B. 2 activations
• C. 3 activations
• D. 4 activations

Answer: (C)

Swinger shutdown is a protective feature that kicks in after a zone is triggered several times in a short period, disabling further signals from that zone to prevent nuisance alarms. The system counts activations for each zone, and once the count reaches the set threshold, the zone is shut down to avoid repeated false or tamper-driven alarms and to give technicians a chance to address a possible fault. The standard default threshold for this behavior is three activations. Using a lower threshold like two would shut down too quickly and potentially miss real faults, while a higher threshold like four would allow more repeated triggers before suppression, increasing nuisance activity. Public Operating Mode isn’t related to this threshold. So three activations is the default threshold.
