Can I program a GEM-P801 control panel to disable the chime for an Entry/Exit Zone without disabling all chimes for all zones?
Yes; for the zone you wish to have the chime disabled, program the zone as an Exit/Entry Zone and also as an Exit/Entry Follower Zone.
A zone programmed as an Exit/Entry Follower will ignore detection during the exit delay, and only during entry delay if the Exit/ Entry Zone is entered first. Thus, detection devices (passive infrared detectors, for example) along the path between the keypad and the exit/entry door will not signal an alarm during exit/entry delay under normal conditions. However, if a detection device in the Exit/Entry Follower Zone detects a violation when the exit/entry door has not first been entered, there will be no entry delay and the Exit/Entry Follower Zone will go into an instant alarm.
If the panel is armed with the entry delays canceled (i.e. "Instant" protection), any violation on the Exit/Entry Zone or the Exit/Entry Follower Zone will cause an immediate alarm.
