CyberCat 254/1016 Programming Manual 2-1
P/N: 06-539 Rev 3, 08/2013
2.1 UNDERSTANDING CYBERCAT
The CyberCat system is equipped with an extensive list of configuration parameters. Changes to these
parameters can be made either directly at the panel using its integral configuration menus, or by using the
system’s PC configuration software C-Linx. Not all of the system operating parameters can be set using the
panel’s configuration menus. Section 4.0 of this manual provides a complete description of the configuration
parameters that can changed at the panel.
To set all operating parameters for the system, you must use the panel’s PC programming software C-Linx.
Section 2.2 provides a complete listing of the programming features that are available through C-Linx for your
reference. Refer to Fike document 06-448, “C-Linx Configuration Software” for software details.
It is important to keep in mind that any changes made to the system configuration directly through the panel’s
configuration menus will only be stored within the panel’s on-board memory. To retain a back-up copy of the
system programming, you should download the latest configuration settings from the panel each time you
service the system.

Notes:
1. City of Chicago does not allow use of Drill, Silence and Acknowledge switches.
2. Can only be changed with Factory Level password.
3. Not used on the CyberCat 254 panel.
4. Voice Panel Priorities allows the user to program a priority scheme for Fire events and MNS events. 0 is used for systems
where priority is not required (0 = None; 1 = Highest and 254 = Lowest).
5. Locality setting is configured for operation of local jurisdiction requirements for Boston, Chicago and New York only. Outside of
these jurisdictions, the setting should be set to Standard.
6. Alert, Evac, Page and MNS Active manual activation events are broadcast to the SLC’s to activate or de-activate outputs
connected to the SLC.
7. If device on SLC has an internal error the panel produces a trouble state (Yes) and does not just log the event into its history
buffer (No). (i.e. Checksum Error)
8. Level 2 ground fault detection required for use with solenoids.

Notes:
1. An audible signal that has been silenced at the protected premises shall automatically resound and remain energized until
silenced and retransmitted the signal to any supervising station to which the original signal was transmitted, as applicable, at
least once every 24 hours until the condition is corrected and the product is restored to the normal supervisory condition.
2. If synchronization is selected, both NAC circuits will use the same sync protocol.
3. Refer to Fike document 06-186 for compatible sync protocol.
4. Only allows the installer to assign the night time sensitivity to a different obscuration level than during normal working hours.
No other functions are affected or disabled.
5. Allows on board relays to be configured from the default setting of Alarm for R1 and Supervisory for R2 to the states listed in
State (Activation).

Notes:
1. Peripheral device must be added to the Peripherals list before these configuration options are available.
2. This command contains status for Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble and all other states. Peripheral devices that have firmware
version before 3.00 should set this variable to STD, which is the original CyberCat format. The ESP selection refers to an
“Expanded” format. Peripheral devices with 3.00 firmware or newer will used this command. The EXP setting speeds up
operation of the peripheral bus.
3. If set to COMPACT, a message filter within the panel is used to prevent transmission of certain history record events, including
the NEW DEVICE history messages. This is done so that the peripherals do not display messages that are not required. If set
to VERBOSE, all history messages are transmitted.
4. HISTORY PACKING refers to how many history records are transmitted back-to-back with minimum time in between. If set to
UNPACKED, history records are sent one at a time. If set to PACKED, up to 50 history records are sent back-to-back. This
will speed up transmission of large amounts of history data.
5. HISTORY MESSAGE refers to what kind of data is packed into the history command. If set to STD (standard), data is packed
as with previous versions. If set to EXP (expanded), both lines 1 and 2 of the history data as shown on the LCD of the panel is
packed into the history command.

panels.
3. Defines which network zones will participate in the local panel zone(s).
4. Defines which network panel(s) the selected panel should supervise.
5. Defines the unique Internet Protocol (IP) address for the selected panel.
6. Defines the unique Internet Protocol (IP) address for the panel that is to receive history events from the selected panel.
7. Defines the unique Internet Protocol (IP) address for the panel that is to supervision responses from the selected panel.
