You can trigger a relay to activate based on several conditions, in
this case you 'ld want to program and output function based on a "zone
number".

First setup your relay in *79 menu mode.

Then you'll want to program an "output function" in the *80 menu mode.
You' want to set it up like this:

Output Funct. # = 01 (assuming this is the first output function)
Activated By: = 3 (zone number)
Enter Zn No. = xx (requires 2-digit zone numbers)(this is the zone #
your "off" key is programmed to -zone type 22-)
Output Action = 1 (close for 2 seconds)
Output Number = xx (device mapped in *79 Menu Mode)

See pages 5-8 through 5-12 in the manual.
