Outputs
Aux 12V This 12v dc is for detectors, etc. The output is via the INT PTC Ressettable fuse.
Between up to 1.1A can be delivered to load depending on
other loads, eg. siren, strobe. The new onboard switching regulator is rated at 1.5
amp and of this, the battery can take up to 200mA depending on
the state of charge.
One strobe requires 250mA and each speaker 200mA.
The panel itself, in a non alarm state with one keypad connected,
draws 150mA approx.
Batt This output is connected to the on-board regulator via a resistor
which limits the charge current. Charging voltage to approx 13.7v
Bell1 Output (timed) to DC screamers, fused via INT PTC fuse. May
also be programmed (via Function 91) as armed, 24 hr alarm, bell or to
power to latching smoke detectors. These then can be reset by User Code , Test 6.
Bell2 Output (timed) to drive DC screamers, fused via INT electronic auto resetable PTC fuse.
This bell2 output is not programmable other than Bell Time (Function 42)
It is xed as a bell output.
Ext stb 12v dc output to drive a 12v dc strobe, fused via EXT PTC fuse.
Ext sir Timed 0utput to drive 1 x 8 ohm speaker rated at 10 watts, fused via EXT PTC fuse.
PGM /OP5 PGM or OP5 Open Collector 100mA output protected via a 100R resistor.
Switches to ground when activated. See function 80 to select the use of this output.

Indicators on the PCB
Run This LED indicates that the micro-controller is operating and must always be ickering.
Dial This LED, located adjacent to the dial relay, will light when the dialler is in its reporting
sequence (line looped) and will extinguish when reporting is completed.
PGM This LED indicates when the PGM output is active for an event as
per the programming of Function 80
INT, EXT & AUX
These LEDs indicate there is power available on respective outputs, when
one of these LEDs are out, there may be a short on the relevant output
Initialization - FACTORY DEFAULT
There are 3 ways to initialize the panel to factory defaults
1. Enter program mode and use Function 90
2. Power the panel up with any button pressed on the keyboard for 3 seconds.
3. Power the panel up with the default pins shorted on the PCB (do not leave link across default pins)
On Power up
On power up the unit performs an internal self test of its EEPROM and then boots with this program. If the
EEPROM is found to have been corrupted in some way then the factory defaults will be reloaded indicated by 5
beeps from the keypad.
If the EEPROM is correct then the panel will power up in the mode determined by Function 98
(Status on power up).
If Function 98 is 0 (Do not retain the On /Off status) the unit starts off in OFF mode and the sirens may operate
for half a second.
If Function 98 is 1 (Retain On/Off status) and the unit was armed when power was interrupted, then when power
is restored, the unit will allow a settling time of 60 secs and attempt to re-arm. Sectors unsealed after the settling
time will be automatically isolated and will be reported as such. After the 60 seconds settling time the unit will dial
through a mains fail restore, a low battery restore and the current status of the panel with user code 31.
Dialling sequence
The dialling sequence from start to nish consists of 6 dialling attempts.
The rst 3 dialling attempts to the rst phone number (with a 20 second pause waiting for handshake) before
dialling next attempt.
If after the 3 attempts no handshake is received then the dialler will release the line for 5 minutes.
The dialler will then make 3 attempts to the second phone number (if no second number has been programmed
then the rst number will be tried again).
If after these 3 attempts handshake is still not received the dialler will hang up until another condition causes it to
dial, at which time the previous condition will also be reported. The PGM output will trigger if Function 80 option
5 is selected.
The STATUS LED on the keypad will turn on during the sequence until it has completed,
this includes during the 5 minute wait period.

Program Readback
With the full range of panels there are basically two methods of reading back information that has
previously been programmed. The rst method allows information that is serial in format to be read
sequentially ie. phone numbers, while the second method allows all selections to be seen at once
ie. sectors assigned as E/E. These are explained below.
SEQUENTIAL READBACK
Whilst in PROGRAM mode, if an option is entered followed by the TEST key then that options
setting will be read back using the LEDs on the programmer as follows :
" LED " " INDICATES DIGIT "
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 6
7 7
8 8
Partial 9
On 0
Auxiliary Pause
Example
For this example Function 60 is already programmed as 0199
If you wish to check Function 60
Enter the function number 6 0 followed by the TEST key.
( whilst in program mode )
ON LED will light accompanied by a beep (digit 0)
Then number 1 LED accompanied by a beep (digit 1)
Then PARTIAL LED accompanied by a beep (digit 9)
Then another beep with PARTIAL LED still lit (digit 9)
Then beep beep and the PROGRAM LED ashing again
(test completed ready for next function).
PARALLEL READBACK
For Functions 31 - 36, 49, 50, 51, 52, 55, 56, 61, 76, 82.
When the function number is entered the previously selected sections will
ash. If at this point the On button is depressed no changes will be made
and the program LED will be ashing again.
To de-select a section re-enter that section number and the section LED
will extinguish.

Page 7
Entering Program Mode
There are two codes that will allow access to the product range of panels for
programming. The technician code that will allow access to all programmable
functions and the master user code which allows access only to user code
programming. Either code can only be used in the OFF mode and since the
operation of both codes is similar, only the technician code will be discussed.
DEFAULTING THE PANEL
If the technician and master codes are not known the only way to enter program mode is to default
the panel so the factory preset codes may be used. This is accomplished by removing power from
the panel and then reapplying power with ANY key on the keypad pressed for three seconds. This
will restore the factory technician and master codes which are 218067and 218572respec-
tively and all other settings to default and will be indicated by ve beeps from the Keypad.
NOTE : Defaulting the panel will reset ALL functions to the factory presets.
ENTERING PROGRAM MODE
To enter the program mode the following sequence is entered :
2 1 8 0 6 7 - On (Enter technician code and press the On key)
At this point the Program LED will begin ashing to indicate that you are in program mode and the
required function number may now be entered. If an error was made in entering the code or an
incorrect code used, the keypad will give a long error beep after which you may try again function
number again. Program mode will auto exit in approx 10mins.
Assuming we are in program mode the following examples will show how functions are programmed
or changed.
Example 1
To program or change the primary phone number (Function 64) to 02 - pause - 1234567. With the
program LED ashing enter the following :
6 4 (Select Function 64. Program LED will light steady.)
0 2 (First two digits of phone number.)
partial (Pressing partial key = 1 second pause.)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 (Remainder of phone number.)
  On   (Storesphonenumber.ProgramLEDwillash.)
At this point the installer can either program further options or leave the program mode by pressing
the 'off' key.
Example 2
Program sectors 1 and 8 to be entry/exit sectors (Function 49). With the programming LED again
ashing enter the following :
4 9 (Select Function 49. Program LED will light steady.)
  0108   (Entersectors1(01)and8(08)LEDSwillash.)
On (store information and exit function 49.)
Off (Exit program mode. Program LED will extinguish)

Notes:
In GSM only mode, the panel will make 3 attempts on the primary via GSM and 3 attempts on the
secondary. There is no 5 minute between primary and secondary attempts during GSM only mode.
In GSM backup mode, the panel will make 3 attempts on the primary via PSTN then 3 attempts on the pri-
mary via GSM...If unsuccessful the panel will wait 5 minutes...then make 3 attempts on the secondary via
PSTN. then make 3 attempts on the secondary via GSM. If the line has failed during the rst dial attempt of
the primary it will immediately dial via GSM. If unsuccessfull, it will follow the normal dialing sequence for the
secondary irrespective of whether the line has failed, and so it will begin dialing via the PSTN. ie the lines ok
(PSTN,GSM,PSTN,GSM), if the line has failed (GSM,PSTN,GSM)
When selected Tape Dial mode causes the dialler not to listen for acknowledge tone and starts sending alarm
message continuously for 30 seconds or until a kissoff tone. (In this mode a kissoff tone can be a whistle.) If
the whistle is received on the rst call it will not continue to dial. In this mode no open/closing report, restores,
isolate/de-isolates, mains fail, low battery or 24 hour test messages are sent.
