Abstract: A method of operating a control panel in a security system that includes a door entry security device in a housing suitable for mounting within a recess of a doorjamb or door of a premises. The control panel is programmed to register a system arm/disarm device and a door closure device, both with the same identification number, such that the control panel recognizes that identification number to be associated with a door entry security device. In the even that the control panel receives, while in an armed state, an alarm signal from a security device in the security system and then receives a system disarm message, then the control panel determines if the system disarm message was received from a system arm/disarm device that has been registered as a door entry security device. If the control panel determines that the system disarm message was received from a system arm/disarm device that has been registered as a door entry security device, then the system disarm message is ignored; and if the control panel determines that the system disarm message was not received from a system arm/disarm device that has been registered as a door entry security device, then the system disarm message is followed.

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un distributeur de fluides combinant une distribution gravimétrique et une distribution volumétrique, ledit distributeur comprenant une bascule (15) reliée à une unité de commande (21). L'unité de commande est reliée à une pluralité de soupapes à deux étages (14) qui régulent la distribution de grandes quantités de matières de base. L'unité de commande est également reliée à une pluralité de pompes pivotantes (34) qui, conjointement à l'unité de commande, permettent de réguler la distribution de petites quantités de matières supplémentaires. Le système de distribution de l'invention est particulièrement utile pour les peintures et d'autres formulations liquides pour lesquelles de grandes quantités de matières de base sont ajoutées, et qui peuvent être ajoutées par poids, et pour lesquelles des mesures précises des plus grandes quantités de matière de base ne sont pas particulièrement nécessaires. Cependant, l'introduction des pompes pivotantes et l'addition de plus petites quantités d'additifs par volume au moyen desdites pompes pivotantes permet une distribution précise des additifs, tels que des colorants pour la peinture. Les contenants les plus larges ou réservoirs de matière de base peuvent être disposés en un emplacement éloigné de l'appareil de distribution. Cet appareil de distribution est également conçu de préférence avec une structure modulaire ainsi que présentée et décrite. En ce qui concerne les matières visqueuses, l'invention se rapporte à un procédé de distribution amélioré dans lequel une matière de base visqueuse est ajoutée en premier dans le contenant, suivie par de plus petites quantités d'additifs, puis par une distribution supplémentaire de matières de base visqueuses. Le fait de prendre en sandwich les plus petites quantités d'additifs entre des couches de matières de base permet d'obtenir une capacité de mélange améliorée pour des matières visqueuses telles que des matières de base de peintures et de colorants.
