-Alarm zone has introduced with BioStar 2.5. It is used to detect any attempts of intrusion during an armed status. \\+====== How to synchronize devices with the server ======
  
-You can trigger the device ​to make sounds or send relay on the event of an intrusion.\\+You may have seen your device ​with yellow symbol ​on the device menu once you connected the device to the server. \\
  
-This is basically something you would turn on at the end of the day after closing your offices and you would disarm the device when you start work on the next day \\+{{:​en:​2x_sysconfig_device_synchronization_001.png?​nolink&​600|}} ​\\
  
-{{:​en:​2x_sysconfig_alarm_zone_001.png?450|}}\\+This means that the device has different access groups, doors, zone, and user information than the server. \\
  
-Refer to the bottom of the article ​to see which devices ​support this zone \\+In BioStar 2.5, device synchronization is automatic on device reconnection if you turned automatic user synchronization on. \\ 
 +This means that when a device disconnected from the server, you had to click sync again in previous ​devices ​to synchronize the devices with the server but now it is automatically taken care of. \\
  
-Note that only local zone with RS485 connection is supported right nowGlobal zonewhich would be server matching of the zone information ​is currently unavailable \\+From BioStar 2.7.1a new device synchronization has been supported. \\ 
 +If you choose 'All Devices (including user update from the device)’, you can update some user information ​when you modify from the device directly. \\
  
-The alarm zone can detect intrusion based on the configured input and the sensor of the door is also used for detecting intrusion \\+From BioStar 2.7.11, '​Specific Devices (Only devices belonging to the access group)'​ has been included. \\ 
 +This is a partial auto user synchronization mode that depends on the access group configuration. \\
  
-You can configure various output and sound for the Alarm statusIn the Trigger & Action menu you can configure the zone settings so that an email is sent to the administrator on a specific event.  ​\\+To get more detailed information,​ please check the linked document([[en:​specific_devices_only_devices_belonging_to_the_access_group_option|'​Specific Devices(Only Devices Belonging ​to the Access Group)'​ Option]]) ​\\ 
 +===== Configuring Automatic User Synchronization =====
  
-During an armed status, users will be unable ​to enter and an attempt to authenticate will be logged as intrusion alarm access denied. For further information on the types of event logs, please refer to the knowledge base configuration guide regarding Alarm Zone \\+1. Log in to BioStar 2 with an administrator account. \\
