Introduction
The Galaxy 2-44 is a programmable alarm control panel that will allow you to protect your
home or business by providing secure and reliable intruder detection.
The system can be fully tailored by your installer to operate in the most convenient way for
your lifestyle or working practice. If there are any changes in your requirements, your installer
will be able to make any necessary changes to the system configuration in order to continue to
provide the best protection whilst maintaining ease of use.
An alarm system will protect you best only when used correctly. Please take the time to read
through these instructions carefully in order to get the best from your alarm system, and avoid
false alarms.
Remember: An alarm system will only protect against intruders if it is Set appropriately.
Always remember to Full set, Part set or Night set the system when applicable.
Warning. There are no user serviceable parts inside the alarm system component housings.
Refer all servicing to qualified alarm service engineers.

Controlling Your Alarm System
Users
Each person who uses the system is described as a “User” and can have their own unique
identity, in the form of a PIN code, prox tag or wireless keyfob, or a combination of all 3.
Different users can have a different level of access to the alarm system functions. All this can
be set up in the user programming section described later.
The control panel can be controlled in one of 3 ways:
1. By entering a code at a keypad and pressing function buttons.
2. By presenting a Proximity (prox) tag to a prox reader.
3. By pressing a button on a specially encrypted wireless keyfob.
Although all of the above methods of control will allow the user to set and unset the system
for day to day operation, the keypad is required to reset the system after an alarm or fault
condition. The keypad is also used to access the menu structure where additional functions
can be accessed such as:
Viewing the event log
Programming user codes
Temporarily omitting zones from the system
Groups
On larger systems, it is often necessary to split the system into separate areas or “Groups” that
can be set and unset independently by different users. Group operation can only be set up by
an installer. The Galaxy 2-44 can be split into 3 separately controllable groups. If your system
has been set up with Group operation, look for the notes on Groups throughout this manual.

Keypads
There are two types of keypad available as shown below but both work in a similar manner.
The number button is for entering PIN codes and for changes options. The function keys
down the side have the following use:
A>: This scrolls forward in a list or menu and activates a FULL set.
B<: This scrolls backwards in a list or menu and activates a PART or NIGHT set.
ENT: This button saves a current setting or activates the currently displayed command.
ESC: This button aborts an operation or escapes back out of a menu option.
The default user code is 1234. It is strongly recommended that this code is changed to some-
thing else as soon as possible.
Mk7 LCD Keypad 6160 Keypad
Prox tags are devices that contain a microchip
that has a unique serial number. This number
can be read by holding the tag in front of a
prox reader. Prox tags will allow you to set and
unset the system only. The prox readers are
usually built in to the case of a keypad and are
identified by the prox symbol as shown:

Wireless Keyfobs
Keyfobs are portable controllers that can
be attached to your key ring. They will
allow you to Set and Unset the system by
a single press of a button and can some-
times be programmed with additional
functions. Because they operate by radio,
they can be used anywhere around the
premises provided that they are in range
of the installed radio receiver.
NOTE: Stickers are provided to place
over the buttons.
Setting the System - Full Set
To set the system, make sure all doors are closed and windows are secure. The system cannot
be set if there has previously been an alarm which has not been reset.
To set the entire system:
Keypad:
Type your user code
then press [A]
Wireless Fob:
Press [ON] button
Prox Tag:
Hold the tag in front
of the PROX symbol for
3 seconds
The exit timer will begin and there will be a constant tone. Leave by the agreed exit route and
close the door. When the exit timer expires, there will be a 5 second settle period and then two
beeps will confirm the completion of setting.
If you hear a rapid beeping sound, the system cannot set as there are open zones. The keypad
will show which zones are open.
FULL SET 060

Setting the System - Part or Night
Part and Night set is similar to Full setting but leaves off certain detectors as agreed with your
installer. Additionally, the system can be programmed by the installer not to give any exit
timer tones during the setting period (silent set).
To Part or Night set:
Keypad:
Type your user code
then press [B].
Press [1] Part Set or
Press [2] Night Set.
Wireless Fob:
Press the [Lower Left]
button (Part) or
Press the [Lower Right]
button (Night).
Prox Tag:
Use the keypad for Part
or Night setting.
The tag will only Full

Setting with Faults
Normally, if there is a fault of any kind on the system, setting will not be permitted until the
fault is rectified. However, depending on the set-up of your system and the level of your user
access, it may be possible override a fault and proceed with the setting procedure.
If there are faults present when you try to set via the keypad, the following typical display will
show:
Fault Override
03 Event(s)>
Use the cursor keys to scroll through the faults. If you are able to override them, the bottom
row will show the message “ENT to continue>”.
AC Fail
ENT to Continue
Pressing the ent key at this point will override the fault for one set period only and allow the
system to set. If there is more than one fault, this process is repeated for each fault.
NOTE: Display not shown when
using wireless keyfobs to set
the system.

Unsetting
To unset the system, enter the protected area by the agreed route. A timed entry period will
begin and a pulsed tone will sound.
Keypad:
Type your user code
then press [ent]*
Wireless Fob:
Press the [OFF] button
Prox Tag:
Hold the tag in front
of the PROX symbol
* NOTE: Unsetting using a keypad may not be possible on DD243 compliant systems.
Cancelling an Alarm
The process for cancelling an alarm is similar to unsetting the system. However, if a wireless
fob or Prox tag has been used, the alarms must be viewed on a keypad by typing in a user
code and following the on-screen instructions. Only certain users are able to reset the system
following an alarm condition. You installer will inform you which users have this ability.
Alert Conditions
If a fault condition occurs when the system is unset, an ‘Alert!’ message will be shown on the
keypad accompanied by an intermittent beep. If this occurs, you should go to the nearest
keypad and type in your PIN code and press ent. The keypad display will show what has
happened. The scroll keys A> and B< should be used to scroll through the message screens. If
the condition has cleared, pressing ent or esc will reset the fault condition. A fault condition
cannot be reset if it has not cleared or if it has not been viewed by a user.
If you cannot clear the fault condition yourself, always call the installer for advice.
Setting and Unsetting Groups
It is possible to split the alarm system into separate areas or ‘Groups’ which can be set and
unset individually. Different users can be given access to only certain groups, or to all system
groups. Also, individual users can be given the option of simply setting and unsetting all
groups assigned to their code or choosing which groups to set or unset each time.
Setting and Unsetting Without Group Choice
When a user with access to multiple Groups, but no group choice, wants to set or unset, they
should follow the standard procedures on the previous pages.
Setting and Unsetting With Group Choice
With group choice, setting is initiated as normal, using a code, tag or fob. However, a choice
of groups will then be displayed along with the current Status of each group.

GROUPS SUU
The status can be changed for each group by pressing the appropriate number button and the
display will cycle through the possible options.
Pressing the ent key will implement the status shown.
If a code, fob or tag is used while an entry timer is running or an alarm is in progress, the
group that is active will be unset immediately, without any status needing to be changed on
the keypad.
Menu Access
To access the other functions of the system, users can enter the menu mode by typing their
code and pressing the ent button. This will display the first menu item after showing system
status for 5 seconds.
10 = Setting
[ent] to Select
Users can then navigate around the menu using the scroll keys, ent key and esc key, or they
can jump to any specific menu item directly by typing the number of the item. An overview of
all the accessible function is shown below. Not all users will be able to access all of the
functions. This will depend on their ‘user type’ that is set up in menu 42.

Menu 11 - Omit
This function allows a user to temporarily disable a detection zone from the system (for
example, to disable a movement detector when a dog is left in the house). Zone omits last for
one set period only and automatically switch off when the system is unset. On entering the
menu option, the first omittable zone is displayed. The A> and B< scroll keys can be used to
select the different zones in turn. To omit a particular zone, scroll to the zone so that it is
displayed on screen. Press the #key and the message in the bottom left corner will change to
“Omitted”. Selected other zones as required in a similar way. When all zones have been
selected as required, press ent to begin setting with the omitted zones, or esc to escape back
out and save the omitted zones for setting later.
Menu 12 - Timed Set
This option initiates the timed full setting routine, identical to typing a code and pressing the
A> key.
Menu 13 - Part Set
This menu option initiates the timed part set routine as described earlier.
Menu 14 - Night Set
This menu option initiates the timed night set routine as described earlier.
Menu 15 - Chime
This menu option allows one or more zones to be put into Chime mode. When chime mode is
enabled for a zone, the internals sounders will beep twice each time the detector on that zone
is activated. This function can be useful, for example, in shop to indicate when a customer has
come through the front door.
Menu 21 - Zone Status
This menu option is used to show the status of each individual detection zone on the system.
On entering the option, the first system zone will be displayed as shown:
On the top row, the zone address is shown along with the zone function which toggles with

Menu 22 - View Log
This option displays the system event log. The log records all events that occur in the system
and is vital for tracing the chain of events during a break-in or when trying to trace a fault. On
entering the option, the most recent event is displayed on screen in the following format:
Pressing the B< key will jump backwards in time by one event. Pressing the A> key will jump
forwards by one event. Holding the scroll keys down will jump by one day at a time with the
date only displayed whilst scrolling.
Additional information about each event can be shown, where available, by pressing the #
key.

no printer is connected, it has no effect. On selecting the option, there is a sub menu of 4
options, which chose what is to be printed. The options are as follows:
1 = Codes
Prints a list of all users on the system.
2 = Zones
Prints a list of all detection zones on the system.
3 = Log
Prints the event log.
4 = All
Prints options 1 - 3

Menu 31 - Walk Test
This menu allows the system zones to be manually tested. There are two sub options to this
function as follows:
1 = Test all Zones
This puts all omittable zones into walk test immediately.
2 = Test Selected Zones
This allows the user to select specific zones to be put into test. On selecting the option, the
first zone is displayed with the zone number and description on the top row. On the bottom
row, the test status is displayed. If the # key is pressed that zone is selected for test and the
message in the lower corner displays as appropriate. Each zone can be toggled on or off by
pressing the # key. When all zones have been selected for test as required, press the ent key to
start the test, or the esc key to abort.
Once the test has been activated, any activation of a detector on test will cause the internal
sounders to beep twice. The zone number and description will also display on the keypad.
When more than one zone is activated at the same time, the scroll keys can be used to view all
the active zones.
NOTE: For wireless movement detectors, always ensure that the detectors on test are left
undisturbed for 3 minutes before activating the walk test. This is because the
wireless movement detectors will enter a sleep mode after being activated in order
to save battery life during repeated activations.
Press the esc key to end the walk test. All walk tested zones will be recorded in the event log.
Menu 32 - Output Test
This menu option allows the external bell and strobe to be tested. There are two sub options,
which select between the bell and strobe. Select the appropriate device and press ent. This will
go to the status display to show the current condition of the device (on or off). Pressing the
ent key will toggle the status on or off to test the device. Press esc to end the test.
Menu 41 - Time/Date
This option allows the system time and date to be set. On entering this menu, there are two
sub options, A=Time and B=date. Pressing the Aor Bkeys allows the time or date as appro-
priate to be set by directly entering the new value. Time is entered in 24Hr notation and the
date is entered in standard 6-digit notation, with two digits each for the day of the month,
month and year.
Menu 42 - Editing Users
The system can have up to 23 users. Each user can be assigned a PIN code, a Wireless Fob
and/or a prox tag. They are also assigned an access type, which dictates what the user can and
can’t do. Menu 42 allows users to alter their own PIN and allows Master users to add and
remove users from the system, as well as manage users access rights.
On entering menu 42, there is a sub menu, 1=Users. On entering the sub menu, the first user is
displayed on the screen (normal users can only see their own user programming).

User(L2)
The scroll keys are used to select the user to be edited. Pressing enter here will show the
options for the user, starting with the PIN code option. Again, the scroll keys can be used to
move between the options. Pressing the ent key allows the displayed option to be modified.
Most users can only access the PIN option. Only Master users can access the other functions.
The programmable options for each user are listed below:
1 = PIN
This allows a new 4, 5, or 6 digit PIN code to be entered.
2 = Type
This allows the user type to be selected. There are 4 types available to choose from:
0 = Cleaner: Can only set and unset the system
1 = User: Can do all day-to-day operation but cannot override fault conditions
2 = Manager: As per User but can override faults and reset alarms and tampers
3 = Master: As per Manager but can add, remove and alter user codes.
3 = Group(s)
If group mode is enabled, this will allow the system groups that the user has access to to be
altered. The numbers shown on the display indicate the groups that the user has access to.
Pressing the appropriate number key toggles the group on or off.
4 = Name
This allows a 6-character label to be assigned to the user, to aid identification when viewing
the event log.
5 = RF Fob
This allows a wireless keyfob to be assigned to the user. The fob serial number is shown in the
bottom row. If a new fob is to be assigned it should be ‘learned’ in as follows:
1. Press the star key to start the learn process.
2. Press any button on the keyfob. The display will indicate success.
If a keyfob needs to be deleted, while the serial number is displayed, press the B< key to
delete the serial number then press ent.
6 = Prox Tag (Mk7 Keyprox Units Only)
NOTE: For programming prox tags onto a 6160 keyprox, use menu 5 = RF Fob, but hold
the tag up in place of steps 1 and 2.
This option allows a prox tag to be entered or deleted. On entering the option, the serial
number of the current tag, programmed is displayed. To delete the current tag, press the B<
key until the serial number is cleared then press ent. To program a new tag, clear any current
serial number then press the 1and A> keys simultaneously then present the new tag to the
bottom of the keyprox. The new serial number should appear on the screen. Press the ent key
to save the new number.

The duress function, when enabled, forces a panic signal to be sent to the monitoring station
each time the user PIN, fob or tag is used. Duress codes should only be used in emergency
situations when there is a threat to life.
Menu 44 - Mobile Numbers
This option allows the SMS text messaging feature to be altered, if the feature has been fitted
to the system. The system can send event messages to up to 3 mobile phones by text
messaging. The type of events that are sent can be individually selected for each of the three
mobile phone numbers. In this menu option, there are 3 sub menus, one for each of the mobile
phones. On selecting a particular mobile (1-3) and pressing ent, there are a further two sub
options as follows:
1 = Mobile numbers
This allows the actual mobile number to be entered. The number is entered directly by typing
the number in directly at the keypad. A number can be deleted or corrected by repeatedly
pressing the B< key. The number is saved by pressing ent.
2 = Message type
This allows the kind of events that are sent to this mobile number. There are 4 options:
1 = Alarm events
Just sends alarm activations.
2 = Alarm & set events
Sends alarms and all set & unset events.
3 = Alarm & fault
Sends all alarm events and fault conditions but not set & unset events.
4 = All events
Sends all of the above events as and when they occur.
Menu 47 - Remote Access
This menu option allows the user to initiate a remote service call when required by the alarm
installation company. The remote servicing function allows the Galaxy alarm system to be
remotely monitored and reprogrammed over the phone line, by way of a modem connection to
computer at the alarm installer’s premises at a predetermined phone number. This option
should only be used when required by your installation company.
Menu 48 - Level 3 Access
This option is used to authorise access by an installation or service engineer. An engineer has
a special access code that is only enabled when an appropriate user accesses this menu option
and enables level 3 (installer) access by pressing the 1 key followed by ent. The engineer then
has 5 minutes to enter his own code.
