Error Message
Action Required
Cheetah:#10
MapDesc
Error.
Zone
&
Device
Specified.
One Map Descriptor cannot be used to store data for zones and devices. Either
the keyword Cheet_Zone or Cheet_Device must be set to
None
4
.
Cheetah:#11
MapDesc
Error. With devices only

For devices only the alarm & trouble states are available. Set the Cheet_DT
values appropriately in the configuration file.

Cheetah:#12 Message on
Cheetah
port
but
no
mapDesc found.
A port has been reserved for the Cheetah protocol and a message has been
received on this port but there is no Map Descriptor defined for this port.
5
Cheetah:#13 Data Array to
short.
MapDesc=<%s>
RQD=%d.
The Data Array associated with the Map Descriptor in question is too short.
Adjust the length as required by the error message. Note that the error may be
repeated for a single Map Descriptor when a new zone or device is stored
because the storage location may be based on the zone or device number.
Generally for zone storage the array must have at least 240 locations (and 128 for
older Cheetah firmware.)
5
Cheetah:#15 Err. MD length
is required - defaulting to 1
The Map Descriptor length must be sufficient to store all the data. The maximum
device number is 255 and the maximum zone number is 255, therefore to store
all zones and devices the MD's must be 256 elements long. Some legacy panels
and message don’t support the full number of devices/zones. For example some
panels only support 241 zones. Try and determine the correct length otherwise
please use 256. If you are unsure ask tech support to provide the template file
server.csv
Cheetah:#17.
Err.
DIAG_USER_1
An internal diagnostic has been activated. This should not happen on a live
system. Take a log and contact tech support
Cheetah:# 18 Err. Bad msg
start= %#x
Messages are expected to begin with a Carriage return or SOH (0x01). The
message has been rejected because it starts with the reported byte. Perhaps the
vendor has changed firmware. If this error occurs repeatedly then take a log and
contact tech support. If it occurs rarely then assume it is noise and ignore it if
you are satisfied you are getting good data updates.
Cheetah:#19 FYI. Ignoring
0x0100
messages
from
Cybercat.
Cybercat panels transmit lagacy message which must be ignored. This message
confirms the driver is ignoring them. No corrective action is required. If you are
connected to a Cybercat panel and never see this message printed (checked the
system and driver error message screen) then please take a log and contact Tech
support.
Cheetah:#20 Err. DA too
short. Zone=%d MD=<%s>
RQD=%d
The driver is attempting to store zone status information from a Cybercat panel.
The Data Array is too short. Adjust the length of the Data Array and the length of
the Map Descriptor.
5
Cheetah:#21. Err. DA too
short.
MapDesc=<%s>
RQD=%d DA=%s
The driver is attempting to store device status information from a Cybercat
panel. The Data Array is too short. Adjust the length of the Data Array and the
length of the Map Descriptor.
5
Cheetah:#22 FYI. Node=%s
is a Cybercat panel.
These messages report the type of panel that the configuration is suitable for. If
this isn’t what you expect, review the configuration against the manual and make
changes as required. Refer to section 0 for more information.

Cheetah:#23 FYI. Node=%s
is a Cheetah panel.
