S2 is a new Z-Wave Security Protocol. When an S2 node is attempting to be included it will request S2 security
keys. These are based on the level of S2 security that the end device requires. These keys can be Unauthenticated,
Authenticated or Access. These keys can be manually granted by selecting the appropriate option. Z-WAVE DEVICES
Clears Z-Wave device from a network, whether it was enrolled with another controller previously
or the IQ Panel 4. Also deletes a device from the IQ Panel 4 if currently paired.

Protection of the Control Unit:
The local control unit and the local power supply must be protected in one of the following ways:
-
The control unit and audible alarm device must be in a protected area which is armed 24 hours a day.
-
Each partition must arm the area protecting the control unit and the audible alarm device power supply. This may require
duplicate protection armed by each partition. Access to this protected area, without causing an alarm, will require that all
partitions be disarmed.

In all cases described above, the protected area for the control unit must be programmed as not-bypassable
For installations employing packet switched (network) communications such as Cellular/Wi-Fi the following
recommendations shall be followed:
-
Select the Internet Service Providers that have redundant servers/systems and Back-up power.
-
Routers shall have Firewalls enabled and methods to identify and protect against “Denial of Service” attacks (i.e. via
“spoofing”).
-
For UL Commercial Burglary applications the loss of communication with the monitoring station shall be treated as an
alarm condition by monitoring station personnel when the burglar alarm system is in the armed state, and as a trouble
condition while the system is disarmed. Packet switched data network (PSDN) interface equipment, manufactured by
other than the burglar alarm equipment manufacturer, that is not provided with the burglar alarm system and/or not
required for the processing of the signals shall be evaluated to the applicable requirements of the Standard for
Information Technology Equipment - Safety - Part 1: General Requirements, UL 60950-1, or the Standard for Audio/
