Appendix A - Central Station Reporting Formats
A–3
The Partial Extended format is a combination of both the Standard and Extended formats. It
transmits in Pulse a standard message for alarm conditions and an extended message for
restores and other system conditions. To report a standard message, enter a numerical digit
(0 - 9) in the first of the 2-digit reporting code; for an extended message, enter a hexadecimal
digit (B - F) in the first of the 2-digit reporting code. The extended messages are used
whenever a zone or user identification is needed (bypasses, restores, openings/closings, etc.).
It can also transmit with and without parity. Examples:
3X1 Stand. w/o Parity (Alarm) 3X1 Part. Ext. w/o Parity (Restore)
123 3 (1st round) 123 E (1st round) 123 E (2nd round)
123 3 (2nd round) EEE 1 (3rd round) EEE 1 (4th round)
123 3 (resulting data) Burglary 123 E1 (resulting data) Burglary
3X2 or 4X2
The 3X2 or 4X2 Reporting Format: AAA EZ or AAAA EZ
Where:
AAAA = 3- or 4-digit account number (Program Questions 09 and 10)
E = Single-digit Event code; it is the first of the 2 programmable Reporting code digits
Z = Zone or user identifier; it is the second of the 2 programmable Reporting code digits
This format is also in Pulse and is an alternative to the Extended format; it also transmits a
2-digit reporting code. Its specific meaning is a 3- or 4-digit account number followed by a 2-
digit alarm code. It can be transmitted with parity (1 round of data) or without parity (2
rounds of data). There are 15 possible Event codes, each of which can have 15 different zone
identifiers. As a result, a total of 225 individual events can be reported. It is different from
the extended format in the way it transmits. This is illustrated in the examples below:
3X2 w/o Parity 3X2 w/Parity
123 31 (1st round) 123 31 5 (1st round)
123 31 (2nd round) 123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
ADEMCO 4X2 Express
The 4X2 Express Reporting Format: AAAA EZ
Where:
AAAA = 3- or 4-digit account number (Program Questions 09 and 10)
E = Single-digit Event code; it is the first of the 2 programmable Reporting code digits
Z = Zone or user identifier; it is the second of the 2 programmable Reporting code digits
This format transmits in DTMF a total of 7 digits (including the parity digit). This format is
similar to the Extended or 4X2 formats in that it can transmit a total of 225 individual
reporting events. However, its advantage is speed because it transmits touch-tones instead of
pulses, and it always sends a parity digit. Examples:
1234 31 1 (1st round)
1234 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
