We kindly ask you to read the entire Manual carefully, since detailed knowledge on
the control panel functions will allow you to fully utilise all included possibilities. This
Manual is very general, and deals with the basic operation of a typical alarm system
installation. The control panel may carry out functions that are nor related directly to
monitoring. We are not able to foresee all possible ways of use of all the control
panel functions available. The use of all control panel functions and efficiency of
operation of the entire system depend on the installation itself and the software
installed by the installer. The control panel may perform its functions in many ways,
which are defined when installing the system and its software. Due to the above, the
installer should give you more detailed information regarding the operation of the
alarm system and procedures of its using.
All situations, where the way of the control panel operation depends on previous
installer decisions (made at the time of programming), are additionally marked with
text in brackets: (service setting) (following the description of situation). The term
“service” used in this Manual relates to the user who maintains and takes care about
the alarm system and uses the service code (see page 12). It may be the installer,
maintenance person, the employee caring for protection of the object, etc.

Operation of control panel CA-64 3
INTRODUCTION
The control panel CA-64 is intended for controlling operation of alarm systems, which
monitor and supervise the security of medium-sized and large objects. Supervision is
not limited to protection against burglary, but may also include monitoring the correct
functioning of the object for 24 hours per day. The status of the alarm system is
monitored continuously. Violation of any alarm system component results in a so
called tampering alarm. The control panel responds to signals from individual
detectors and decides whether to activate alarm or not. Since various detectors may
be connected to the control panel, type and way of alarming depends on the control
panel software installed (the control panel may respond in a different way to a signal
from fire detector than to a signal from a water level detector).
The control panel allows grouping of detectors (zones) to obtain so called partitions,
as well as free choice in determination, which partition is to be monitored (armed).
Activation of any detector from such a group (called “zone violation” in the below text)
may trigger an alarm. High flexibility of the control panel in determination, which
partitions may be armed at the moment, is its great advantage.
BASIC FUNCTIONS OF THE CONTROL PANEL:
• signalling burglary, attack, fire, technical and auxiliary alarms,
• monitoring – communication with telephone monitoring stations (real time sending
detailed information on selected events in the protected object),
• messaging on alarm by telephone – either with the use of a vocal message or to a
pager,
• answering phone calls (this function is protected with a separate code) that makes
possible:
- to inform the user on a system status,
- to control some of the control panel functions via telephone; these functions
are programmed by the service,
• real time printout of information on all or selected events occurred in the alarm
system,
• supervision of access to rooms through doors provided with electromagnetic
locks,
• monitoring the correctness of operation of individual alarm system components
(power supplies, batteries, wiring).
CONTROL PANEL USAGE PROPERTIES:
• operation by means of keypads provided with LCD text display (2x16 characters)
to facilitate the use of the system,
• descriptions of zones and partitions defined by the installer make easy to find the
alarm source,
• visible date and time of the system clock allow controlling the correctness of
functions that depend on the real time,
• accessible are: viewing the alarm memory and failure memory (or detailed
memory of all events) with event description in words, zone, module and partition

4User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
name or name of the user who operates the system, together with accurate time
of the event occurrence,
• control and monitoring (up to) 8 independent alarm subsystems and (up to) 32
partitions armed independently,
• control of individual system parts from independent keyboards (maximum 8 LCD
keypads and 64 partition LED keypads),
• control and supervision of the system by means of a computer (program
GUARD64),
• dynamically changing menu (dependent on access level) to provide access to a
range of user functions – the selection is made by accepting the function at the list
shown in the LCD keypad screen,
• key short cuts to facilitate calling frequently used functions.
OPERATION OF CONTROL PANEL CA-64
BASIC INFORMATION
LCD keypads and partition keypads are used for operation of alarm system based
on control panel CA-64. Moreover, the control panel supervises and registers usage
of code locks and proximity card as well as Dallas chip readers, located adjacent
to doors in individual rooms of an object. Partition keypads may be also used as code
locks.
Individual control devices are assigned to selected partitions by the installer. LCD
keypads may operate many partitions of different subsystems. Partition LED keypads
operate a single partition only. Individual users may operate the control panel when
they are provided with access to partitions operated by specific keypads. That
means, the partitions assigned to the user at the stage of a new user creation or
edition (see Description of User Functions
Æ Users) must correspond to partitions
operated by a keypad. The installer defines the list of partitions operated by individual
LCD keypads.
Example: A LCD keypad controls operation of partitions: 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. The user
has access to partitions: 5,6,7 and 8. It is seen from comparison, that by using this
LCD keypad the user may control operation of partitions 5 and 6.
A similar rule applies to partition LED keypads, code locks and proximity card
readers. With keypads, the user may control these partition to which he has access,
he may open these doors with code locks and proximity card (or DALLAS chip)
readers, for opening of which he has been authorized. The installer defines the list of
users of individual partition keypads, coded locks and proximity card readers
(separately for each module).
The access to functions controlling the operation of the control panel and more
important information on the system status are protected with a CODE (code –
combination of 4 to 8 digits). It is possibile to obtain some information on system and
call some functions without using a code (service setting) – by keeping depressed
one of the following keys for a longer time (approximately 3 seconds):

Operation of control panel CA-64 5
1 – zones status viewing,
2 – keypad tampering viewing,
3 – expander tampering viewing,
4 – partitions status viewing,
5 – alarm memory viewing,
6 – failure memory viewing,
7 – current failure viewing,
8 – switching on / off gong signal in LCD keypad,
0 – auxiliary alarm (for example, calling medical aid),
✶– fire alarm,
# – attack alarm.
Functions of keys from 1 to 8 are accessible from LCD keypad only, and other
functions may be accessible (service setting) from each keypad installed in the
system (LCD keypad, partition keypad, code lock). The functions called this way
provide information on all partitions operated with specific LCD keypads. Also, they
are accessible via the User Menu (see: Description of User Functions – Tests, Event
History, Failures, Change of Option), however, when called via the User Menu they
provide the information on partitions accessible for the individual user, who called
that function, only.
It is recommended that this way of calling functions be accessible in LCD keypads
fully protected against access of unauthorised persons.
An “attack alarm” (called by #) may be signalled externally, in a similar way to an
alarm of “burglary” type (buzzers, lights), it also may be arranged not to activate any
signalling and remain as a “silent alarm PANIC” (service setting).
Also, the installer may render accessible the function of quick arming of certain
partitions (so called QUICK ARM) to be called by pressing two keys: 0 and # in
sequence:
! 0 # quick arming of partitions. This function may be accessible from an
LCD keypad and a partition keypad. When called from an LCD
keypad, the function may arm several partitions, and when called from
a partition keypad, it may arm only this partition, to which the partition
keypad is assigned.
Moreover, keeping depressed the key marked Ódisplays LCD keypad name, and
depressing two key: Òand Ó(for approximately 40 seconds) causes the keypad
processor to restart and display the keypad software version number and the control
panel software version number.

6User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
LCD KEYPAD
Figure 1
An LCD keypad is provided with a large LCD display (2 x 16 characters) with
permanent or temporary backlighting, the latter is activated either by pressing any
key or by violation of any zone (service setting).
16 keys (lighted similarly to the keypad screen) are located beneath the display,
which are used for:
entering the code,
moving along menu and selecting appropriate functions from the list,
entering data for functions called.
Six LEDs are located at the right-hand side of the display to indicate current system
status.
• ALARM (red) – continuous light informs on alarm signalling activation at this
moment. When the LED blinks, it means that, in partitions operated with this
keypad alarm signalling occurred again since the last reset of the alarm memory.
• FAILURE (yellow) – the LED blinking informs on presence of a technical problem
in the system. Failures, which activate this LED, are described further in this
Manual (see Description of User Functions
Æ Failures).
The LED does not light when the LCD keypad operates in partially armed mode
(at least one partition accessible for the LCD keypad is armed) or armed mode (
all partitions accessible for the LCD keypad are armed) (service setting).
• ARMED (green) - the LED blinks when some partitions are armed and lights
steadily when all partitions operated by the keypad are armed.
• SERVICE (green) - the LED blinks when the control panel operated in the service
mode (function accessible for the user provided with the service code only).
Note: Service mode limits normal operation of the control panel. Alarms from most
of zones (except for zones of the following types: attack, cash point, and
vibrating) and tampering alarms are not signalled. In order to restore the
normal control panel operation mode, just exit the service mode, for the
control panel does not return to its normal operation mode automatically.

Operation of control panel CA-64 7
• Zones 1-64 (two green LEDs) – they are used when viewing and testing status of
zones and “expander” type modules – they indicate which group of zones (or
which expander bus) is currently displayed on the LCD keypad screen (see
Description of User Functions
Æ Tests).
In addition to visual signals, the LCD keypad may generate audible information
(service setting). The following signals, specific to some situations, may be heard
when using the keys:
One long beep - refusal of arming - the zone, which shouldn't be violated at the
time of arming, is violated (option - "PRIORITY"). The refusal includes all zones
selected for arming.
Two long beeps – the control panel did not recognise the code; function is not
accessible; erratic data; confirmation of abandoning the selected function (after
pressing ✶on the keypad keyboard); the key pressed is not active.
Three long beeps – the code is recognised, but the called function is not
accessible (for example, temporary partition bypass is activated or the user has
no access to partitions operated from the keypad; the zone, which should not
be violated when being armed, is violated – refusal of arming).
Two short beeps – selection accepted – entering more detailed menu level.
Three short beeps – confirmation of arming or disarming.
Four short beeps and one long beep – acceptance of execution of the selected
function.
Three pairs of short beeps – it is necessary to change the code (for example,
another user, when changing his code, has given an identical combination of
digits as the combination in the code of the user; the code validity is expiring).
Moreover, the installer may program audible signalling in an LCD keypad for the
following situations:
Alarm for a partition – continuous sound for the total alarm duration (time
programmed by service).
Fire alarm – series of long sounds every second for the total alarm duration.
Count down of time for entering – short sounds every 3 seconds.
Count down of time for exit – long sounds every 3 seconds, completed with
a series of short signals (for 10 seconds) and a single long sound. The way of
signalling of “time for exit” informs that the count-down is finishing.
Signaling the auto arming delay time countdown (timer-controlled partitions)
- a series of 7 sounds (of diminishing length).
Gong in the LCD keypad – five short sounds – this is a response to activation
of some detectors when the zone is disarmed.
THE USE OF LCD KEYPAD
Operation of the system from LCD keypad starts with entering the user CODE and
pressing the key marked #or ✶. Note that the control panel response (functions
accessible) after pressing the # key is different from that generated after pressing the
✶one. The specific feature of the control is the dynamic changing of the accessible
menu, dependant on the system programmed parameters, as well as on the
authorisation level of the user who entered the code. The designers of the control

8User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
panel have chosen such a way of its control to facilitate operation by users who do
not know the system very well. Also, taking into account the safety of the object, it is
not recommended that most of users have access to all control panel functions.
The system incorporates the hierarchy system for access to the control panel
functions and partitions defined for the object by the installer.
Generally, typing at the keyboard:
! CODE # gives access to functions of arming/disarming type,
! CODE ✶gives access to all functions in the User Menu, to which the
user is authorised
Note: When an erratic code (not recognised by the control panel) is typed three
times, the alarm will be activated (service setting).
The list of the control panel functions for user access is formed in a dynamical way.
The contents of the list depends on system parameters, code type, user authorisation
and alarm system status and situation.
Example: When you type your code and press #, the control panel makes accessible
functions of partition arming (provided there are no partitions, operated from the
LCD keypad, already armed) or disarming (if any of partitions is armed). In the
event of alarm occurrance in the system, the control panel may cancel this alarm
and make accessible the function of partition disarming (if the user has
authorisation to do that). When the function of messaging by telephone is
activated – function Cancel messaging by telephone may appear in menu. When
the user has access to a single partition only, typing the code and pressing #
causes immediate arming or disarming (if the partition is armed).
Typing code and pressing ✶causes that the list of functions accessible from the
User Menu is displayed. From this menu also the functions of the following type
may be accessed: arming and disarming (if some partitions are armed). When all
partitions are armed, the function Arm will not be accessible.
As you can see in the examples described above, the control panel, in an intelligent
way, makes accessible those functions only, which may be executed by a specific
user.
All user functions, which are accessible from LCD keypad, are described in
section”Description of User Functions”.
SELECTION OF FUNCTION
When the control panel accepts the code, the first user function (from all functions
accessible currently) appear in the upper line of the display. You can move through
the list of functions rendered accessible by the control panel by pressing key Òand
Ó, and select the item in the list (single-selection list) by pressing the key # or Ñ. If
the selected function requires making further selection (submenu, options), the next
list appears on the display, from which you can select required item in a similar way.
Some functions may need selection of few items from the list (multi-selection list). To
do that, scroll the list by pressing Òand Ókey and „mark” all items in the list, which
should be selected. The item is marked by pressing any numeric key, the symbol
appears in the upper display corner next to the text. Press the numeric key again to
cancel marking.
By scrolling the list upward or downwards (list contents is displayed in a cyclic way),
you can see all list items and check marking. Pressing the key # or Ñaccepts the
selection (execution of function may be confirmed with beeping), and the control

Operation of control panel CA-64 9
panel returns to previously displayed menu or displays the adequate message and
returns to the basic status (waiting for code). Then, current date and time is
displayed. Date and time display format is defined by the installer (service setting).
There is the control panel setting option, which activates the procedure of double
acceptance of some user functions. After pressing the key # or Ñ(normal way of
selection of function), the prompt appears on the screen asking to confirm the
function, together with information: 1 = Yes. Press the key with digit 1to confirm this
function. This procedure protects against accidental double pressing the key # (or Ñ)
and execution of function, which should not be executed. The description of user
functions in this Manual relates to situation when this option is switched off.
If you want to abandon the selection of function after opening the User Menu, press
key ✶. In the event no keypad button is pressed (within 2 minutes) after menu
opening, the control panel automatically closes this menu and returns to its basic
status.
GRAPHICAL MODE
Partition selection functions allow also another way of multiple selection from the list
(for example, selection of partitions for arming). It is called a graphical mode. When
you have already entered the selection list, press key Ñor Ðto enter this mode.
Dots under the number of each accessible partition (numbers 1 - 32 around the
display) appear on the keypad screen. The dash under the dot (cursor) indicates
which item may be marked. Use key Ñand Ðto move the cursor to the item
required. Pressing any numeric key causes the symbol to appear at the item
selected. Press the numeric key again to cancel marking. Press key Òor Óto
restore the previous way of display (with name).
ALARM SOURCE NAME READING
The installer may also render accessible the function of displaying the name of the
alarm source at the LCD keypad screen, without necessity of entering the code. In
such an event, the partition or zone name is displayed at the keypad screen, when
an alarm occurs. When there are few alarm causes, you may scroll zone names, for
which alarm occurred, and names of partitions, where the alarm is (or has been)
signalled. Arrow keys: Ðand Ñallow viewing partition names (if an alarm occurred
for few partitions), and keys Òand Óallow viewing zone names, for which an alarm
occurred. These names (entered initially by the installer) are displayed in a cyclic way
in the lower display line, and they are shown in numeric order of zones (or partitions)
in the system. The information on alarm activation is stored in so called “temporary
alarm memory”, until the contents of this memory is cleared by an authorised user
(see “Description of User Functions”
Æ Alarm clearing). The contents of this memory
may be checked many times after resetting the alarms, until it is deleted.

10 User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
PARTITION KEYPAD
Figure 2
Partition keypad is provided with 12 keys with permanent or temporary backlighting
(service setting), and three LEDs described as follows:
• ALARM (red) – steady light indicates an alarm in the partition operated with this
partition keypad, and blinking indicates that alarm occurred in this partition earlier.
• ARMED (green) - steady light informs, that the partition assigned to this keypad
has been armed. The LED blinks when the time for exit is being counted down.
• FAILURE (yellow) – the LED blinks when a technical problem has been detected
in the system. Check the LCD keypad for the type of failure. Indication of this
LED relates to the entire system, not only to the partition operated with this
keypad. Arming of a partition switches off the LED, and disarming causes the LED
to lit again.
When all of three LEDs (ALARM, ARMED, FAILURE) flash in sequence, this
indicates missing communication between the keypad and the control panel. This
situation may occur when program STARTER runs in the control panel or the cable
connecting the partition keypad to the control panel is damaged.
There is a possibility to program a partition to be armed or disarmed after entering
two codes (service setting). In this event after entering the first code, LEDs ARMED
and FAILURE start to blink, and the control panel waits for entering the second code.
Similarly to the LCD keypad, the partition keypad may generate audible signals. This
way the control panel confirms the function called, since there is no display at the
partition keypad.
One long beep - refusal of arming - the zone , which shouldn't be violated at
the time of arming, is violated (option - "PRIORITY").
Two long beeps – the code is not known to the control panel.
Two short beeps – acceptance of the first of two codes needed to arm or
disarm.
Three long beeps – the code cannot control this partition.
Three short beeps – confirmation of partition arming and disarming.
Three pairs of short beeps – it is necessary to change the code - for example,
a user, when changing his code, has entered an identical combination of digits
as in the code of another user, or end of code validity is approaching.

Four short beeps and one long beep – the confirmation of the performance of
acontrol function, code change and of a guard round.
Five short beeps - the dependent door are open - the door control has not been
performed. To operate the lock it is necessary to close the dependent door and
reenter the code.
Blinking of the back-lit may substitute the audible signalling (service setting). Beeps
correspond to keypad lighting off pulses, when the lighting is on, or light on pulses,
when normally it is off.
Also, the partition keypad may indicate alarm occurrence in the partition concerned
(service setting).
Alarm in the partition – steady sound for total alarm duration.
Alarm memory – long sounds every two seconds until alarm is reset. The
sounds are synchronised with ALARM LED flashing. Press any numeric key to
silent the sounds for approximately 40 seconds.
Fire alarm – a series of long sounds every second for total alarm duration.
Fire alarm memory – short sounds every two seconds until alarm is reset.
The sounds are synchronised with ALARM LED blinking. Press any numeric
key for approximately 40 seconds to silent the sounds.
Count down of time for entering – short sounds every 3 seconds.
Signaling the auto arming delay time countdown (timer-controlled partitions)
- a series of 7 sounds (of diminishing length).
Door are open for too long - short beeps repeated with high frequency till
the door are closed (the function of door control is activated).
Operation of the system from the partition keypad is very limited, and it relates to the
partition, to which the keypad has been assigned by the installer. There is a
possibility to operate an electromagnetic door lock from the partition keypad by
means of the user’s code. Several partition keypads may be assigned to a single
partition.
Functions accessible from the keypad are as follows:
! CODE # arming and disarming of partition and alarm reset.
! CODE ✶electromagnetic door lock opening.
Similarly to the LCD keypad, the user, who wants to start functions mentioned above,
need to have access to the partition concerned and proper authorisation. Besides, he
need to be authorised to use the partition keypad concerned (these rights are
assigned by the administrator with in the GUARD64 program, or the installer (service)
in the DLOAD64 program).
When the erratic code is typed three times, the alarm may be activated (service
setting).
Other functions accessible from the partition keypad (without code entering) are as
follows:
! 0 # quick partition arming,
and functions of calling special alarms:
# panic alarm,
0 auxiliary alarm (calling for medical aid),
✶fire alarm.
The last three functions are started by longer keeping depressed (for approximately 3
seconds) the key described above.

12 User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
Note: When arming is on for the partition, and the partition keypad also controls
the electromagnetic door lock, typing: CODE ✶ causes disarming and door
opening – if the partition is not bypassed temporarily. However, If the user
has no authorisation for disarming, the door remains closed.
Code change by the user is another, additional partition keypad function (service
setting). User partition change is carried out as follows:
Press and keep depressed (for approximately 3 seconds) the key with digit
“1” (LEDs ALARM and ARMED – red and green – start to flash alternately).
Type the old CODE and press # (LEDs: ALARM and FAILURE – red and
yellow - start to flash alternately).
Type new CODE and press # (LEDs stop blinking and the module generates
confirmation signal of function execution).
In the following four cases the control panel cannot accept the change of code (it is
signalled with two long beeps):
1. the new code is too short or too long (accepteble are codes of lengthfrom 4 to
8 digits)
2. the new code is too simple ( the function of refusal of simple codes is
activated)
3. the new code is identical with a code of another user of the alarm system
(someone's code has been "guessed")
4. change of the code has been blocked, because another user "guessed"
thecode trying to change his own code. If the function of reminding about the
necessity of code change is activated, each usage of such a "guessed" code
will be signalled with three double beeps. In this event the change of the code
will be possible only by means of the LCD keypad with the requirement of
confirmation of the code change (see: the description of the function "change
own code") by the administrator of the subsystem. It makes impossible to
"take over" the code by a user who accidentally "guessed" the code.
NOTE: With a big number of users it is advisable to use longer codes, at least 5-digit
ones, to reduce the chance of "guessing" the code of another user.
CODE LOCK
The coded lock looks similarly to the partition keypad. The code lock is provided with
12-key backlit keypad. Keypad backlit may be permanent or temporary (service
setting). The lock is provided with three LEDs marked as follows:
• STAND BY (green) – LED is on when the lock is operated by the control panel,
and the door may be open.
• ACCESS (red) – LED is on when the door lock is being unlocked.
• DOOR (yellow) – this LED shows the status of zone, which monitors the door
status. The LED is ON when the door is open.
When all three LEDs (STAND BY, ACCESS, DOOR) flash alternately, that means
there is no communication between the code lock and the control panel. This
situation may occur when program STARTER is running in the control panel or the
cable connecting the code lock keypad to the control panel is damaged.

Operation of control panel CA-64 13
The basic code lock function is to control the access to the room, where the door
provided with electric catch, bolt or electromagnetic interlock are installed. Also, the
lock may be used for partition checking when sentry round in the object.
To open the door, type CODE at the lock keypad and press key # or ✶. The user
must have access to use this code lock.
! CODE # door opening
! CODE ✶door locking
When an erratic code is typed three times, the alarm may be activated (service
setting).
It is possible to call special alarms using a code lock keypad. These three functions
are called by longer keeping depressed (for approximately 3 seconds) the key:
# panic alarm,
0 auxiliary alarm (calling for medical aid),
✶fire alarm.
Confirmation of the function called by the control panel (with sound or blinking) is
identical as for partition keypad.
PROXIMITY CARD AND DALLAS CHIP READER
Proximity card and DALLAS chip readers have the same role to play in the system as
code locks. Proximity card readers are provided with two-colour LED and buzzer for
communication of the control panel with the user. DALLAS chip heads are not
provided with any signalling of this type, but the installer has a possibility to provide
such an external signalling.
Each alarm system CA-64 user (administrator, sentry, ordinary user) may be
assigned with one proximity card and/or DALLAS chip at the stage of user creation or
edition. Also, it is possible to remove the previously assigned card (chip) to a user
from the control panel memory. In order to provide a new user with a card (chip) with
a code already known to the control panel, first remove this card (chip) from memory
(see: USER MANUAL, CA-64 →Description of user functions →Users), and then
assign it to another user.
Use the card as follows: bring the card close to the card reader and hold it there for
approximately 0.5 sec. The distance between the card and reader, when reading,
may be up to 12 - 14 centimetres, depending on reading head type. DALLAS chip
should be pushed into the head slot to close the zone electric circuit. The control
panel receives the code from the expander operating the reading head, recognises
the user, to whom the card (or chip) is assigned, and operates according to settings
programmed, when the user has authorisation to open the door (to activate the
relay).
In the alarm system CA-64, the proximity card reader signals have the following
meaning (DALLAS head may generate identical signals):
♦ Meaning of audible signals generated after proximity card readout:
single short beep – card code readout,
Two short beeps – start of card code writing function, confirmation of first
writing,
Two long beeps – control panel have not recognised the card,
Three long beeps – card code is recognised, but the user has no access to
the lock (relay control),

14 User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
Four short beeps and one long beep – card code accepted, the relay
activation, second correct readout of a new user card,
Five short beeps – dependent door open (relay has not been activated).
Short beeps (without time limitation) – door opened for a too long period.
♦ Meaning of visual signals emitted during armed status and after proximity card
code readout:
LED blinks red in a uniform way – missing communication with control panel
(this situation may occur when the special system initialisation program
STARTER is running in the control panel, the reader module has not been
identified or the cable connecting the module to the control panel is damaged.)
LED lights red steadily – module is correct, lock operation (relay control) is
possible.
LED changes colour from red to green once a second:
à
single short changes – waiting for first card reading,
à
double short changes – waiting for second reading of a new card.
♦ The installer may activate the option of confirming with a LED the messages sent
from the control panel to the user. In this case, after the card is read, the change
of LED colour from red to green goes on in accordance with audible signalling
described above.
CODES AND USERS
The functions of control panel operation is possible after entering a proper code and
pressing key ✶or #. Three basic code types are used:
1) Service code – this code identifies the user with special rights: he controls all
partitions, he may open all doors controlled by the control panel, he has access to
most of control panel functions (except for the “Service access” and “Users”
functions – see Description of User Functions), he may enter and delete
subsystem administrators. Factory programmed service code : 12345.
2) Administrator (supervisor) code – this code identifies the user with highest
authorisation for subsystem. The administrator has access to all partitions within
his subsystem. There is a function which unlocks the service access (see
Description of User Functions – Service access level). This function is always
accessible for the administrator and not for the service. Factory programmed
administrator code for a first subsystem: 1111.
Other administrator rights may be limited by the service (installer). If few
subsystems are defined in the system, each subsystem has its own administrator
code. This user has the right to enter new users into the system.
3) User code – the remaining codes entered to the system by administrators or
users (with rights to edit the user). These are the codes for everyday operation of
the system. 192 user codes may be entered in the CA-64 control panel.

Operation of control panel CA-64 15
Notes:
♦ Service code is rejected by the control panel, when service access is locked. The
administrator may unlock the service access to the alarm system by using the
function „Service access” (see: Description of the User functions).
♦ If there is no administrator code in the system (all administrators are removed),
service access to the system is unlimited.
♦ It is recommended not to use the administrator code everyday (unauthorised
persons may peep the code). The administrator should enter an ordinary user
code, with “strategic” functions blocked, and he should use it in everyday work.
Protection of access to the service mode and prevention of entering codes by
unauthorised persons are main purposes of that.
An additional possibility is to assign specific control function to a code. This function
will be executed after the code is followed with the # key (see: Description of User
functions - Users).
The installer (using the service code) defines administrator codes and names (one
administrator per each subsystem), as well as he defines their rights.
The administrator has the right to enter ordinary system users. He provides them with
rights, type and defines the partitions, to which the users will have access. Also, the
ordinary user may have the right to enter other users. New user may have access to
these functions and partitions only, to which the user, who enters the new code has
access.
Note: If the user has authorisation for changing the code, he should change it
after first usage of the code. The control panel reminds by means of a
message on the keypad display and an audible signal that this operation
should be performed (service setting).
The system stores the sequence order of entering users into memory. The person
with authorisation to enter and delete the users may remove from the memory the
users entered by him/her or his/her subordinates only. The service has the right to
edit all administrators (as well as to change codes). The administrator has such rights
for users in his/her subsystem. Ordinary users have rights to edit the users they
entered. This possibility is convenient when the code is lost. The supervisor of the
user concerned may enter a new code and make controlling the system available for
him (of course, within the range limited by his authorisation).
The control panel assigns numbers to the users to identify them in the system. This
number is used in messages transmitted to the monitoring station and in event
descriptions (see: Description of User functions – Event history).
SYSTEM ARMING
“Armed” is the basic status, for which the control panel was designed. In this mode,
the control panel detectors monitor the protected object, and any violation of the
protected partition is signalled by the control panel with all means accessible
(programmed by the installer). Control panel CA-64 enables individual control of
armed status in each partition. A single partition, several partitions and all partitions
may be in armed status. Each partition may be disarmed individually (by means of
partition keypad, LCD keypad) or totally (LCD keypad).

16 User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
Typing the following at the keypad is a normal way of arming:
! CODE # partition keypad arms a single partition, and keypad gives the
possibility to arm all (or selected) partitions accessible.
! 0 # quick arming – the partition keypad arms a single partition, and
keypad arms partitions programmed by the installer (no selection
possible).
If one of partitions accessible for the user is already armed, he/she may arm other
partitions when he/she types at the keypad:
! CODE ✶arming by selecting „arm” from the function menu (see:
Description of User functions).
There are some special methods of system arming possible in a partition
(available from the LCD keypad):
- activate without internal zones – the control panel does not respond to
violation of zones defined as internal by the installer. This possibility allows
user to stay in the object and arm. The object is protected externally in normal
way, and the system performs all functions programmed.
- arm without delayed zones – arming is performed in a way similar to the
previous case, but additionally the delayed zones act as immediate ones.
To arm the system in one of the presented modes, proceed as follows:
1. Enter ACCESS CODE and press the ✶key.
2. Call the „Arming mode” function.
3. Using the
Òand Ókeys select one of the suggested arming modes and press
#.
4. Call the „Arm” function and select (highlight) the partition to be armed.
5. Press the # key.
Disarming the partition will cancel the special mode of its arming. To re-arm the
partition in a special mode, the procedure described above must be repeated.
The procedure of arming the system from a LCD keypad in the partition where the
type (10) „24h vibration” zone belongs and the testing function of vibration sensors
is activated (service setting) is slightly different.
When the arming function (access code # or quick arming 0#) is called, the following
message appears on the LCD display:
„Vibration sensors test xx s (1 = arm)” where the xx field indicates the number of
seconds before the end of test.
During the test, the control panel is waiting for the violation of vibration zones in
a given partition. If all the vibration zones of the given zone are violated, the alarm
control panel switches over to counting the exit delay time and arming the system. In
case some of the vibration zones are not violated during this time, the control panel
will display a list of faulty zones (number and name of zone) and will not arm the
system.

Operation of control panel CA-64 17
Pressing the digit 1key during the process of countdown will interrupt the test and
arm the system in normal mode, while pressing the ✶key will make it possible to
cancel the arming.
Arming the system from the partition keypad will bypass the testing of vibration
sensors in the particular partition.
Also, special control ways of partition status are possible
• partition arming and disarming by means of timers. Timer is an internal control
panel logic unit, which measures time. Timer operation is programmed by the
service.
• partition arming and disarming by means of a “partition user timer”. This timer
may be programmed by the user, without necessity of asking the installer (or the
service) for that. There is a single timer of this type for a partition, this timer may
be programmed in daily or weekly cycle (see: Description of User functions
→
Change of option).
• partition arming control by means of a special zone programmed (by the installer)
as arming control zone. In practice, it may be a mechanical switch; key switch,
pushbutton, radio switch. Also, such a zone may be controlled via telephone –
with the use of DTMF system (see: Answering phone call).
ALARMS
The system may signal alarms as the response for various situations occurred in the
protected object. Basic control panel alarms are as follows:
• Burglary alarm – activated when the zone is violated in the partition where arming
is on. The violation of the “delayed zone” starts to count down the delay time, after
which alarm is activated if the partition will not be disarmed.
• Fire alarm – activated by fire detectors, from keypad or in another way (for
example, pressing the pushbutton).
• Tampering alarm – activated by violation of any anti-tampering contacts in the
alarm system (located in detector and module casings), damage to cable(s), etc.
• Attack alarm – activated from keypad or in another way defined by the installer
(for example - pushbutton).
• Auxiliary alarm – activated from keypad (for example, call for medical aid) or in
another way defined by the installer (for example - remote controller or
pushbutton).
• Technical alarm – activated by various specialist detectors.
The way of signallisation of individual alarms may be different, and it is defined by the
system installer. It may be an alarm buzzer, information to a monitoring station, visual
alarm, audible alarm and (or) keypad message, telephone message, activation of
other external devices.
MESSAGING ON ALARM BY TELEPHONE
The telephone communicator integrated in the control panel CA-64 allows
transmission of information on alarm through the telephone line to any telephone
number. The message transmitted may be adapted to the alarm type (the system

18 User’s Manual CA-64 SATEL
installer may install voice synthesizers to allow up to 16 messages to be replayed)
The installer defines, who and on which alarm will be informed by the control panel,
by programming relevant telephone numbers and defining rules of messaging.
Also, the control panel may transmit the information on missing 220 V power supply
in the form of voice message (or pager message). Power supply failure is a serious
danger for the protected object and the alarm system, therefore, this information has
been recognised as equally important as information on alarms.
The person, whom the control panel calls, may confirm message receipt. Special
code is used for that, programmed (by the installer) individually for each telephone
number. When the message is not confirmed, the control panel may repeat the
message transmission (number of repetitions is programmed by the installer). The
telephone set must be set to the DTMF tone dialling.
If the code is not correct, the control panel signals that with two long beeps. Correct
code is confirmed by four short and one long beeps.
When, instead of sounds described above, you hear a single short beep every three
seconds, the code is correct, but you must wait, because there are several messages
about different alarms.
If you make a mistake when entering the code, press any numeric key to supplement
the code to four digits (then the control panel signals erratic code), and next enter the
correct code.
Note: The control panel analyses telephone signals in order to recognise whether
the phone call is answered. Therefore, it may occur that you will hear the
message after few seconds (up to 4 seconds) from picking the earphone.
This effect is not an error – it results from phone call confirmation signal.
When you say „halo...” to the earphone, the message will be communicated
immediately.
ANSWERING PHONE CALLS
The control panel CA-64 is able to answer phone calls and communicate information
on the system status. Also, you may call control functions with the use of telephone.
Each ordinary user may (at the stage of user entering or edition) be assigned with a
telephone code (do not mix this code with the code for confirmation of receipt of a
telephone message on alarm). The control panel recognises the system user with
this code and passes an information on partition status (armed, alarms) for partitions
accessible for this user. Also, the user may control the status of control panel relay
outputs programmed as „telephone relays”. The installer has a possibility to program
up to 16 telephone relays. Also, the installer decides which relays may be controlled
by individual users. To use this function of the control panel, you must have the
telephone set operating in DTMF tone system.
Note: Not all cellular telephones allow control in DTMF tone system.
How to use this function:
Dial the telephone number (line) of the control panel. The way of dialling is
defined by the installer. The control panel may communicate after a defined
number of dialling signals (rings). Dialling may be single or double. When
double dialling is used, wait a defined number of “rings”, put the handset off,
and then dial the control panel telephone number again. After the number is
dialled the second time, the control panel should answer immediately.

Operation of control panel CA-64 19
After the communication is started, the control panel is ready to receive the
user telephone code – three short beeps (prompt).
Type code at the telephone set keypad (in the tone system). The control panel
accepts the correct code with series of beeps: four short and a single long one.
An incorrect code is followed with two long beeps.
Now the control panel operates in the mode of informing on partition status. It
waits for user’s response for 15 seconds and generates one short beep every
two seconds. Now It is required to enter the partition number at the telephone
set keypad (two digits – for example, 01; 05; 12; 25). If the user does not
respond within this time, the control panel will ring off.
After the partition number is entered, the control panel generates the message.
Three short beeps inform that the partition is disarmed and four short and one
long beeps mean that the partition is armed.
Alarm memory is an additional information given by the control panel. If an
alarm occurred in the partition, the control panel generates series of double
beeps – first is lower and second is higher – following the information on the
partition status. Where no alarm occurred, the control panel generates single
short beep every two seconds.
In order to move to the control mode of the telephone relays status, press 2and #
at the telephone set keypad.
Now the control panel waits for the relay number (two digits). To trigger the
relay status to the reverse one, type the relay number at the telephone set
keypad. Two short beeps mean that the relay has been switched off and four
short beeps and one long beep mean that the relay has been switched on.
Each time you type the relay number, you change its status to the reverse one.
You may move back to the partition status indication mode by pressing keys 1and
#one after one.
When you press keys 0and #one by one, you exit the function and terminates the
phone call.
OTHER FUNCTIONS USING TELEPHONE LINE
If the alarm system uses functions of the control panel telephone communicator, the
line from the local exchange to the object is connected directly to the control panel,
and all telephone sets are located downstream the control panel. Therefore, no
signals are heard in telephone sets, when the control panel uses the telephone line.
This situation may occur frequently in multi-partition system, where monitoring is
activated. Moreover, the control panel will disconnect the telephone conversation,
when taking over the telephone line in order to transmit an information on a new
event. It should be said that control panel phone calls do not last for a long time (from
several to tens seconds, depending on the selected format data transmission).
Another function, where the control panel occupies the telephone line, is
programming by the telephone (“downloading”). This function may be initiated by the
service. The telephone line may be occupied for a long time, when data are
transmitted. Even if the programming is initiated by the user, the service may hold
communication with the control panel for cost saving reasons, and then restore it
without engaging the user.
