SATEL CA-5 3
1.1 Display [LCD keypads]
Date and time are presented in the upper line of the display. In the lower line, the current
state of zones is shown by means of symbols (first symbol – first zone, second symbol –
second zone, etc.):
– normal zone status,
– zone bypassed,
– zone violated,
– alarm memory,
– first alarm memory,
– zone tampered (double EOL zone wiring),
– tamper memory (double EOL zone wiring),
– first tamper memory (double EOL zone wiring).
The display provides many data in the process of using the keypad, which facilitates
communication between the alarm system and the user.
The display backlight mode is programmed by the installer.
1.2 LEDs indicating system state
Red LED. Illuminated – indicates an alarm. Blinking – indicates alarm memory.
Green LED. Illuminated – the system is armed. Blinking – indicates exit delay
countdown.
Yellow LED. Blinking – indicates trouble. To check the cause of trouble, press and
hold down the key.
Green LED [CA-5 KLED-S only]. It indicates the control panel supply status:
−illuminated – 230 V AC mains and battery power OK,
−blinking – low battery,
−extinguished – 230 V AC power failure.
Red LED [CA-5 KLED-S only]. Indicates that menu or function is entered:
−blinking slowly – on entering the user function menu,
−illuminated – on entering the service function menu,
−blinking rapidly – on entering a function.
1.3 LEDs indicating zone state [CA-5 KLED-S]
5 numbered LEDs in CA-5 KLED-S keypad provides information about zone state:
−LED extinguished – normal zone status,
−LED blinking slowly – zone bypassed,
−LED illuminated – zone violated,
−LED blinking rapidly – alarm memory,
−LED blinking very rapidly – first alarm memory,
−LED illuminated, briefly extinguishing every 2 seconds – zone tampered (double EOL
zone wiring),

4 CA-5 SATEL
−LED flashing every 2 seconds – tamper memory (double EOL zone wiring).
When using the features available in the control panel, the LEDs can also provide additional
information.
1.4 Keys
The keys designated with digits and letters enable entering the code and data when using the
keypad. Additionally, you can press and hold down selected number keys for about
3 seconds to:
- view the alarm log;
- view the trouble log;
- view the current troubles;
- enable/disable the keypad CHIME feature (signaling violation of selected zones
by 5 short beeps).
The other keys allow you to:
- enter the user menu (after entering the code) – you can enter the user menu,
provided that the system is not armed and no alarm is being signaled;
- disarm the system and clear alarm (after entering the code);
- exit the function;
- trigger the fire alarm (press and hold down the key for about 3 seconds).
- arm/disarm the system and clear alarm (after entering the code);
- enter the service function menu (after entering service code);
- start the selected function;
- confirm the entered data;
- trigger the panic alarm (press and hold down the key for about 3 seconds).
- trigger the auxiliary alarm (press and hold down the key for about 3 seconds).
In the LCD type keypads, arrow keys are additionally available to allow you to navigate
throughout the display (i.e. to scroll through the displayed messages, functions and options,
and to move the cursor).
1.5 Sound signaling
Beeps generated during operation
1 short beep – pressing any number key.
3 short beeps – to signal:
−entering the user menu;
−disabling the CHIME signal in keypad with the key;
4 short beeps and 1 long beep – to signal:
−arming;
−disarming and/or alarm clearing;
−entering the service function menu;
−enabling the CHIME signal in keypad with the key;

SATEL CA-5 5
−finishing the function and exiting the user menu, after confirming the entered data.
6 short beeps – arming, with some zones bypassed.
1 long beep – refusal to arm (some zones are violated) or function unavailable.
2 long beeps – an unknown code, unavailable function, or exiting the function without
confirmation of the data entered (e.g. after using key).
3 long beeps – unavailable function.
Events signaled by sounds
1 short beep every 3 seconds – to signal:
−service mode;
−new trouble.
5 short beeps – zone violation (CHIME).
2 short beeps every seconds – countdown of entry delay.
1 long beep every 3 seconds – exit delay countdown.
Continuous beep – alarm.
Long beep every second – fire alarm.
Notes:
•Only installer selected events are signaled.
•Alarms will be signaled as long as programmed by the installer.
2. Codes and users
An individual code is assigned to every control panel user. The code makes it possible to use
functions available in the keypad and to operate the control panel using the keypad. By
default, the following codes are preprogrammed in the control panel:
master (administrator) code: 1234
service code: 12345
Using the master code you can program 5 codes for other users. The installer defines the
rights (authority level) for codes 4 and 5.
The service code enables access to the service functions, but does not allow everyday
operation of the control panel (using this code you will not be able to arm or disarm the
system).
3. Arming
Prior to arming, make sure that there are no violated zones (e.g. open windows or doors),
which may prevent the system from arming (if the system has been so configured by the
installer).
After arming, the exit delay countdown may be running, which allows you to leave the
premises without triggering alarm (the zones will be armed only when the exit delay
countdown is finished).
The installer may program the control panel so that the users can stay inside the premises
after the system is armed. If, during the exit delay countdown, the control panel will not
register leaving the premises (the zone monitoring the exit route will not be violated), the
selected zones will be bypassed.

bypassed) or unbypassed (if it is bypassed).

SATEL CA-5 9
5. Having selected the zones to be bypassed / unbypassed, press the key.
Notes:
•Bypassing the zones reduces the level of security. Prior to arming, make sure that there
are no accidentally bypassed zones, which can allow an intruder to gain access to the
protected area, despite the system being armed.
•If a zone is bypassed because of its malfunctioning, call the service technician immediately
to repair the fault.
•For security considerations, the installer can reduce the number of zones that the user is
authorized to bypass.
