Software changes with the POWER WAVE V8.61
(JAN 2002)
There have been a couple of changes to the panel to allow new features. These changes are documented below so that the differences between
this version of the panel and earlier versions( software version V8.60 and below) can be identified.
The changes are;
1)
A new event has been added to the event memory. When viewing the alarm events in memory mode there is a new “System”
first event which is “the dialer failed to get a
kiss-off
”. The event is displayed on the LED keypad as a system # 8 event (refer to
the table on page 9).
2)
A new feature has been added to the “STAY” mode arming sequence. When arming “
STAY
” mode all exit and entry delays will
apply as programmed, however if the “Enter” button is pressed after arming “STAY” mode, then all
exit and entry delays will be
cancelled
for that armed cycle making everything instant.
3)
A new program address has been added, P169E. This address provides three new options, see page 28 for details on these
new features.
4)
The monitoring account numbers have moved from P332E (Area A account) & P333E (Area B account) to P506E (Area A) &
P507E (Area B). This change has been made to allow the letters B,C,D,E & F to be programmed into the
account codes
( see
page 38 for details).
5)
There has been a change to the way 24 hour alarms can be reported if using Domestic or Voice alarm modes. Option # 6 at
address P188E now can enable or fully
disable 24 hour alarm reports
in these two modes. In earlier software versions a 24
hour alarm would always report an alarm in Domestic or Voice mode if the alarm was armed but could also be programmed to
report when disarmed as well. Now if option 6 is OFF there will be NO 24 hour alarms reported. If option 6 is ON then 24 hour
alarms will ALWAYS report regardless of the Arm/Disarm state.
6)
There has been a new option added at address P188E, option #7. This option now allows the ability to control whether
STAY
mode zone alarms will be reported via the dialer or not. If option 7 is turned ON, all STAY mode zone alarms will report via the
dialer, if OFF then no STAY mode zone alarms will be sent. This option is essentially designed to work in combination with option
2 at P188E. If full reporting of the part set alarm state (Monitor Mode) is required then option 2 & 7 will be turned on. If alarms only
are required for the part set mode then option 2 will be off and 7 on (this inhibits the arm/disarm report that may not be required in
a residential situation). Finally, if both options 2 & 7 are off then the part set mode is purely a local audible alarm with not alarm
reporting via the dialer.
7)
There is a new zone configuration in the panel. This new option allows
zone doubling
to occur (4k7 & 8k2 Resistors) without the
need to use the 2k2 tamper resistor. When using this configuration an open or short circuit on the input will result in both zones
being un-sealed but NO zone tamper (refer to the drawing on page 5).
8)
The
Radio Pendant Panic
would always cause the keypad buzzer to sound as well when the alarm was activated. The radio
pendant panic alarm is now linked to the keypad panic alarms at address P175E. If all of the LEDS are Off at address P175E then
any Keypad or Radio Pendant generated panic alarms will not cause the keypad buzzer to sound (silent panic alarm). If the LEDS
are on at address P175E then the buzzer will sound when one of these alarms is generated (audible panic alarm).
Software changes with the PW8 V8.64 (July 2002)
The Daylight Savings adjustment (P408E-P414E) was removed to make room for the new Crow Freelink Wireless PIR & Reed switch protocol
(see address P231E-P238E). At the same time a User Code with Option 8 ON at addresses P21E- P30E can now also change the Telephone
numbers and the Real Time Clock from Client Program Mode.
