1) Introduction
a) The Captiv8 Keypad
This is the Keypad from where the alarm system is controlled.
Figure 1 The Keypad Keypad1.wmf
The display shows any important messages, including an alert to call the alarm
installation engineer.
The 10 digit numeric keypad is where the PIN code is entered.

b) Warning Indications
All setting points (keypads or ward readers) have lamps to indicate the current
status.
Lamp Indicatiing
Power The lamp will flash if the mains supply fails
Alarm The lamp will flash if an alarm occurs.
Set/Unset The lamp will light for 5 seconds if the system is completely unset
(steady) or if some areas remain set (flashing). It will also light during
the setting procedure and go off once set.
c) Using Tags
The high security proximity tag will set or unset the alarm system in a
straightforward manner.
The bottom panel.
Tags are offered up
here to be read.
The top panel.
This is where the LED
indicators are located.

Captiv8-256
Captiv8 Engineering Manual Eng00 Issue 1a 03/06/04 7
The tag contains no batteries and is completely maintenance free.
Offer the tag to the bottom panel on the ward reader for it to be read, when
the reader will beep to acknowledge the tag.
Before activating the system…
Ensure that all doors and windows are securely closed and any pets or people
are excluded from areas protected by movement sensors.
d) Leaving the Building
If leaving the building, key in the PIN code on the keypad or present the tag at
the reader.
On completion, the exit tone will sound.
There are now two possible procedures that can be used to set the system.
• Timed Exit
• Manual Setting
Whichever method is used, this will be referred to as the setting procedure in
later text.
i) Timed Exit
If the exit mode is timed, the screen shown below will be displayed. This allows
a preset time for the operator to leave the building before the system becomes
set.

Figure 5 Exit Timer Keypad3.wmf
If a push-to-set button, or a final door set is used, the following message will be
displayed.

If flexi-set is enabled, the settable areas will be selectable. (See chapter 5
More Advanced Functions on page 16.)
ii) Manual Setting
With this method, the system is set by closing the final exit door, or by pressing
a push-to-set button outside the building, near the final door. The message
displayed is …
EXIT VIA DESIG ROUTE

2 Using the Keypad with PIN
Code or Tag
a) Security Checks
If a warning tone sounds when the PIN code is keyed in or the tag is presented,
a message will show the nature of the problem.
The tone will cease after about 10 seconds.
Press the NO key.
The system will remain unset, so that the problem can be resolved.
For example, a door may have been left open. If this is the case, close the door.
With the problem corrected, repeat the setting procedure.
i) Faults When Switching On
If the exit tone continues to sound an interrupted tone... "beep - beep - beep - "
after the setting procedure has been completed, there is probably a protected
door left open on the exit route.
Return to the keypad and note the message on the display. E.g.
EXIT VIA HALLWAY
Stop the setting procedure by entering the PIN code, or offering up the tag.
Close the open door and repeat the setting procedure.

Captiv8-256
Captiv8 Engineering Manual Eng00 Issue 1a 03/06/04 11
b) Leaving the Building
If leaving the building, go to the Keypad and key in the PIN code, or present the
tag. The exit tone will start.
Leave by the agreed exit route and close and lock the final exit door.
If fitted, press the 'Push to Set' button and the exit tone will cease. Captiv8-256
is now set.
c) Entering the Building
To enter the building the agreed entry route must be used, moving directly to
the keypad.
Entry tone will sound, “Beep - beep - beep -…”
ENTRY [020]
TIME
Key in the PIN code or present the tag and the entry tone will cease.
Captiv8-256 is now unset.
d) Part-Setting the System
i) Smart Set
To set the system while personnel remain in the building (e.g. to set the alarm
at night), the Smart operating system will recognise the level of security
required and will set only part of the system.
If partial setting is required the Push-to-Set button will not need to be used.

Engineering Manual
12 Captiv8 Engineering Manual Eng00 Issue 1a 03/06/04
e) Staying in the Building
To part-set the system, enter the PIN code at the keypad or present the tag to
the ward reader and the exit tone will start.
Leave the protected area and go immediately to the un-protected area (e.g.
upstairs).
After a preset time the exit tone will cease.
The system is now part set.

3 When Problems Arise
a) Silencing Alarms
If an alarm tone sounds, key in the PIN code or present the tag and the alarm
will stop sounding.
The display will indicate the problem.
ALARM SILENCE
LOW VOLTS
Press the 'YES' Key
The system will advise any action that is needed.
b) Engineer Reset
When an alarm has been cancelled, a random 5-digit code may be displayed,
along with the message…
ENGINEER RESET REQUIRED
21055
Under these circumstances, it is normally necessary for an engineer from the
installation company to check the installation and reset the system.
If the alarm has been triggered in error, the alarm receiving centre may permit a
reset of the system without an engineer being present.
The centre will need to be notified of the 5-digit code by telephone (advising
the agent that the system is a Captiv8-256). The alarm receiving centre will then
issue a one-use code that can be used to reset the system.

4 Setting Individual Areas
Sometimes, security needs will be a little more complex and the A B C D keys
will need to be used.
The Installer can identify to all of the A B C D areas.
For example…
A Reception or All Set
B Warehouse or Bedtime Set
C Office or Cat in Lounge
D Storeroom or Dog in Study
SETTING
RECEPTION
In addition, names can be given to the whole system. E.g. 'ALL AREAS'.
SETTING
ALL AREAS
These will be displayed when setting the system.
a) Codes with Flexi-Set
For greater flexibility in setting parts of the system, choices can be made at the
keypad.
SET AREAS
[ABCD]
Key in the PIN code or present the tag.
If only some of the areas assigned to the tag or PIN number are to be set, select
those required by pressing the relevant A, B, C D keys.

Captiv8-256
Captiv8 Engineering Manual Eng00 Issue 1a 03/06/04 15
To alter the selection, press the relevant A B C D keys again.
Press the Yes key to accept the selection.
Setting areas will be displayed.
SETTING
ALL AREAS
Captiv8-256 will now set the selected areas.
b) Flexi-Set
When the system is already set and it is required to unset it…
Key in the PIN code or present the tag.
NOVAR PLC
TIME:
All areas for which the tag or PIN is valid will be Unset. Any areas set for which
the code is not valid will remain set. E.g. if A and B are set…
If an 'A' tag is presented, only area A will be unset.
If an 'A B' tag is presented, both A & B will be unset.
An 'A B C' tag will unset A & B, leaving C unset.
If there are no areas set for which the code is valid, the system will set as
described in chapter 5 More Advanced Functions on page 16.
