SIA reporting format. SIA uses this account number for all
partitions and system events. All other reporting formats use
a 4-digit system account number to report system main-
tenance (e.g., low battery, zone fault) and test transmission
events. To program a 4-digit system account number, enter
4 digits followed by FF.

code along with its data transmission. The transmission
appears similar to the following at the receiver:
