Introduction
Unwanted alarms have been a significant problem for response authorities throughout Europe. A
significant proportion of these are attributed to “operator error” during the entry and exit procedures.
Recommendations are therefore made for the selection of methods of setting and unsetting an
Intrusion Alarm System (IAS) that will minimize such errors.

1 Scope
This Technical Specification provides recommendations for those methods of setting and unsetting an
Intrusion Alarm System (IAS) complying with EN 50131-1 that will reduce unwanted alarms arising
from “operator error” in setting and unsetting the IAS and provide confidence that the conditions in
which the system is installed are conducive to system reliability during the “set” period.
This document details optional methods by which these goals may be achieved, either in isolation, or
in conjunction with verification methods.
These recommendations should be incorporated into the respective standards in the EN 50131 series.
This Technical Specification also provides (in Annex A) recommendations for equipment and (in
Annex C) associated test requirements, in order to permit the manufacture of standardized equipment
to provide the functionality needed by an IAS to meet these recommendations.
NOTE This standard includes requirements that are additional to those in EN 50131-1 which are relevant when
the respective method of setting and unsetting is implemented.

Note 1 to entry: See Annex B.
4 Methods of setting and unsetting
4.1 General
The methods of setting and unsetting described may be used as complementary to alarm verification
technology (CLC/TS 50131-9) or as stand-alone methods of minimizing unwanted alarms arising from
errors during setting and unsetting of an IAS.
In general, methods of setting and unsetting may be selected in any combination to suit the
requirements of the specific alarm system installation. However, the “coerciveness” principle (4.2.3
and 4.3.4) should be considered as a single coherent set of recommendations covering both setting
and unsetting.
If setting or unsetting is carried out by a combination of methods of authorization, the requirements of
EN 50131-3:2009, 8.3.2.3 apply.
NOTE IAS should provide means to implement at least one of the methods of setting described in 4.2 and at
least one of the methods of unsetting described in 4.3.
4.2 Methods of setting
4.2.1 General
Consideration should be given to the provision of an indication to the user and/or notification to the
ARC if an attempt to set the IAS is not completed within the pre-determined time.
Completion of setting procedures should not rely solely on actions within the supervised premises (for
example, simple timed exit procedure), but should require a specific action external to the supervised
premises). Suitable methods include those given in 4.2.2 to 4.2.5.
4.2.2 The setting procedure is carried out from outside the supervised premises
The setting procedure shall comply with EN 50131-1:2006, 8.3.5. This may be achieved by
mechanical or electronic means, or by provision of an indication such that the user is aware that the
system is prevented from setting. An indication of completion of setting required by EN 50131-1:2006,
8.3.7 which can be perceived outside the supervised premises shall be provided
4.2.3 The setting procedure is carried out from outside the supervised premises
incorporating additional measures to ensure the integrity of the IAS.
NOTE This describes the “coerciveness” principle, known in Germany as “Zwangsläufigkeit.”.
The setting procedure shall follow the recommendations of 4.2.2 with the following additional
requirements:
a) all applicable requirements of EN 50131-1:2006, Table 4 shall apply in all grades of system;
b) for IAS with non-specific (e.g. wire-free) interconnections, no interference may be present in any
shared interconnection for longer than 30 s;
6

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------

SIST-TS CLC/TS 50131-12:2016
CLC/TS 50131-12:2016 (E)
c) for IAS with non-specific or wire-free interconnections, setting shall be permitted only if signals or
messages have been received from all system components within 100 s;
d) the lock state monitoring devices are in a locked condition;
e) blocking shall be achieved by using blocking function and element as specified in A.2;
f) no configuration is in progress which could influence the operation of the IAS;
g) no remote diagnostic process is in progress which could influence the operation of the IAS.
On completion of setting and before the set indication is enabled, a mechanism shall be activated by
the IAS, preventing unlocking of the designated entry door before the IAS is unset.
The last unset operation shall be completed and the IAS clear before a new setting operation can be
commenced.
Where the opening of a window is detected the lock state shall also be monitored. Setting is permitted
only when the window is closed and locked.
4.2.4 Setting is carried out by a 2-stage process
The setting procedure shall be started by a user action and be completed by a positive action outside
of the supervised premises. Suitable methods of completion include:
a) the action of closing the final exit door;
EXAMPLE Response to closing of switch mounted on the door.
The CIE shall include a function to prevent spurious activation from any exit route detector from
affecting the setting procedure (e.g. whilst a detector is stabilizing).
b) the action of locking the door (e.g. response to contacted lock);
c) a separate user action at the supervised premises to confirm successful closure of final exit door
(e.g. operation of push button or other device).
There shall be an indication that the setting procedure has commenced. (see EN 50131-3:2009,
8.3.3.2).
An indication of completion of setting as required by EN 50131-1:2006, 8.3.7, which can be perceived
outside the supervised premises, shall be provided.
4.2.5 Setting is carried out in conjunction with the ARC
Setting shall be carried out in accordance with an agreed secure procedure. As a minimum, this
should include:
a) appropriate measures to prevent setting the system with persons inside the supervised premises;
b) exchange of authorization information at least equivalent to EN 50131-1:2006, 8.3.2.
The indication of completion of setting required by EN 50131-1:2006, 8.3.7 shall be communicated to
the system user.
4.3 Methods of unsetting
4.3.1 General
The entry procedure should be designed to avoid the possibility of a user error resulting in an
unwanted alarm condition. Suitable methods include those given in 4.3.2 to 4.3.9.

4.3.2 Forced unsetting by unlocking
The action of unlocking the designated entry door shall automatically unset the IAS.
4.3.3 Access to the supervised premises is prevented whilst the IAS is set
It shall not be possible to open the designated entry door until the IAS has been unset.
4.3.4 Access to the supervised premises is prevented whilst the IAS is set (using the
coerciveness principle)
It shall not be possible to open the designated entry door until the IAS has been unset and means
shall be provided additional to the door locking function to prevent entry into the supervised premises.
This method shall be used if setting is carried
