Galaxy 8/18/60/500/512 v User Guide
INTRODUCTION
Your Galaxy alarm system is, in fact, a computer which has been
designed using the latest software and hardware technology.
First and foremost, the Galaxy meets all your security needs. The
engineer will program and commission the system to your own exacting
requirements.

Galaxy 8/18/60/500/512 1 User Guide
Keypad Information
General
The Galaxy Alarm system is controlled by the Galaxy Mk3 Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
keypads. There can be a maximum of 16 keypads attached to the Galaxy 8, 18 and 60 and a
maximum of 32 keypads attached to the Galaxy 500 and 512 control panels.
NUMBER KEYS (0 – 9)
These keys are used to enter the code and to select and modify options.
Before carrying out operations on the system, users must identify themselves with a Personal
Identification Number (PIN). This number is a 4, 5 or 6 digit number selected from keys 0 - 9.
The number keys are also used where groups are programmed on the system permitting
groups (areas) to be set or unset.
VIEW KEYS (A and B)
These keys have been programmed to activate one of the system options. Pressing the A > key
after a valid code has been entered starts the full set routine. Pressing the < B key after a valid
code has been entered starts the part set routine.
Once a system option has been selected, the A > or < B keys can be used to operate as view
keys, stepping forwards (A >) or backwards (< B) through lists of information. Holding down
a view key while viewing an option list, rapidly displays each item in the list, permitting quick
access to the information.

ENTER KEY (ent)
User level 3 and above to enter codes, data or selections into the system.
User level 2 to set and unset the system.
User level 1 to set the system.
User level 0 to log PIN entries.
ESCAPE KEY (esc)
The esc key aborts the current option to return to the previous option level. Any option
modification made prior to the option being aborted is erased. Successive pressing of the esc
key returns the user to the start display (known as the BANNER).
The esc key also aborts the setting routine if pressed during the exit time.
HASH KEY (#)
The #key is used to display additional choices for certain options, e.g. ADVANCE/RETARD
the time in the TIME/DATE option.
This key is also used as the user duress key (by pressing twice following a valid code
entry).
STAR KEY (TT
TT
T)
The Tkey is used to provide additional features for certain options, e.g. printing the event log
or deleting entries.
POWER LED
The green power LED remains lit whenever the keypad is connected to a mains power supply.
A mains power failure is indicated by the LED flashing slowly. The LED flashes rapidly if the
battery voltage falls below the minimum threshold or if one of the fuses on the control panel
PCB blows.
BANNER
The banner is the display shown on the keypad, e.g. Galaxy 500 V1.15 (with the time and
date on the bottom line). This is shown at all times, unless the menu is being accessed or an
alarm or help message is on display. The banner can be changed by the engineer.
USER CODES
The user code is a unique four, five or six digit PIN (Personal Identification Number). The
PIN identifies the user to the Galaxy Alarm panel and allows operation of the system.

Galaxy 8/18/60/500/512 3 User Guide
SETTING THE SYSTEM
BEFORE SETTING
Before setting the system ensure all doors and windows are secured
and areas protected by movement detectors are free from obstruction.
ENTERING A PIN - USER LEVEL 1-2
As each digit is entered the keypad responds with a bleep and
displays a T. When all the digits are entered, press the ent key to
start the setting routine.
ENTERING A PIN - USER LEVEL 3 - 6
As each digit is entered the keypad responds with a bleep and
displays a T. When all the digits are entered press the A > key to
start the setting routine.
SETTING GROUPS
Where group choice has been assigned to the PIN, select which
groups have to set as part of the setting routine. Entry of the PIN
followed by the A> key, displays the set status of each group on the
keypad screen .
Select which groups have to be to set by entering the number of the
group. For example, to set groups 2 and 3 press keys 2and 3. The
display changes to indicate the groups selected for setting. Pressing
the ent key starts the setting routine for the specified groups.
Galaxy 500 and 512
The Galaxy 500 has 16 groups whilst the 512 has 32 groups. If the
user has group choice, the available groups will be displayed at the
keypad following a valid code + A >. The groups will be displayed
showing A1 to A8. Use both A > and < B keys to scroll to the
various sets of groups.
EXIT TIME
If all the system zones are closed when the setting routine is started,
the display indicates the remaining time, in seconds, to vacate the
premises. Exit the building using the agreed route.

SOUNDER
During the setting period the sounder emits a continuous tone if all of
the zones are closed. If a zone is opened during the setting period, the
sounder begins to pulse. The sounder also pulses during the last 25%
of the setting time to indicate time running short.
ZONES OPEN
The exit time will reset should any zones be open or opened during
setting. The display will indicate the number of zones open and invite
viewing. Closing the zones will restart the exit time.
FINAL DOOR/TERMINATOR
The setting procedure can be manually completed by either closing
the FINAL door or by pressing the TERMINATOR button.
SYSTEM SET
When time has expired or a manual termination is made, the system
waits four seconds before setting. The sounders emit two long tones
to confirm that the system is set. The keypad briefly displays the
message SYSTEM SET, before becoming blank.

To set part of the system press the < B key after the PIN. Only the
zones which have the PART attribute enabled are set. All other
setting features are the same.
CANCELLING THE SETTING
The setting routine can be aborted by pressing the esc key before the
system sets.
GROUP NAME
Press Tand #keys simultaneously when groups are displayed on the
keypad (when setting for example), will display the name of the

UNSETTING THE SYSTEM
NORMAL ENTRY
Unsetting starts immediately when the FINAL door is opened or an
ENTRY zone is activated. The sounder pulses slowly and the user
must go directly to the keypad and enter a valid PIN, followed by
A>,<Bor ent. Users with group options, will access the UNSET
screen following PIN entry. This permits the user to unset specific
groups. To return to the SET screen press ent.
STRAYING FROM THE ENTRY ROUTE
Go directly to the keypad when entering the building. If the user
strays into a protected area and activates a zone, then a full alarm will
occur. The police may be called out and the system will have to be
reset.
SLOW ENTRY
Enter a valid PIN before the entry time expires. If the entry time
expires before a valid PIN is entered, then a full alarm will occur.
The sounder begins to pulse quickly when 75% of the entry time has
elapsed indicating time is running short.
CANCELLING ALARMS
To cancel an alarm, enter a valid PIN followed by ent at the keypad.
The keypad displays the details of the zone activated. When more
than one zone is activated, their details can be viewed using A> or
<B. Press ent to return to the banner. Certain types of alarms, once
cancelled, require a code with the appropriate reset authorisation to
be entered. The system prompts for a valid reset code by displaying
MANAGER RESET REQUIRED or ENGINEER RESET
REQUIRED on the keypad.
MANAGER RESET
Entering a manager level PIN followed by ent, resets the system
following an alarm activation.
ENGINEER RESET
Certain types of alarm require an engineer to visit the site and, after
investigation, reset the system. In such cases, the system cannot be
reset until the engineer reset has been carried out.

MENU OPTIONS
There are two menu structures on the Galaxy control panels:
Full Menu
Only accessed by default by the Manager code on the Galaxy 60, 500
and 512 control panels.
Quick Menu
A selection of options from the full menu. The quick menu is the
default menu access for all user codes (level three and above) as well
as the Manager code on the Galaxy 8 and 18 control panels.
ACCESSING THE MENU
To access the menu enter a valid code and press the ent key. The Full
Menu or Quick Menu is accessed, depending on the user level.
OMIT ZONES is the first menu option to be displayed.

assigned to the user code must be unset.
2. If the user has group choice, at least one group on the
system must be unset.
3. If there are no groups, then the system must be unset.
FULL MENU
The Full Menu has a hierarchy of four structures contained within it.
Each structure is accessible by a increased user code level.
QUICK MENU
The Quick Menu offers users level three and above a selection of up
to 10 options, numbered 0 – 9. The required option is selected by
entering the option number (0 – 9) or by using the A> or <B keys to
