Builds on: Security Systems and the Guard's Role
Alarms and Panels on Your Post
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
A beep or a red light on an alarm panel can mean a fire, a break-in, or just a dusty sensor. You cannot tell which from your chair.
Focus: treat every alarm as real until you have checked it.
Learning objectives
- Explain the three parts of an alarm system: sensor, panel and people.
- Name common sensors and common causes of false alarms.
- Read the basic states of an alarm panel and report faults.
- Respond to a power cut, a panic button or a duress alarm.
