Hardware reset main control panel
Perform the following to restore the main control panel to default settings:
1. Power down the system.
2. Remove all wires between Zone 1 and PGM 1 on the alarm controller.
3. Connect a short between Zone 1 and PGM 1.
4. Power up the system for 60 seconds.
5. Power down the system and remove the short.
6. Power up the system again. Factory defaults are restored and hardware default is logged to the event buffer.
Note:
Hardware default is not available when installers lockout is enabled.
4.7 Alternate communicator setup
The alternate communicator is an ethernet or optional cellular communications device that can be used as a backup to the PSTN
connection or as a primary means of communication between the alarm panel and the central monitoring station. The alternate
communicator communicates via 2G, 3G, LTE or Ethernet.
The following configuration steps are required to set up the alternate communicator:
l
Install the optional cellular alternate communicator to the alarm panel
l
Enroll the alternate cellular communicator with Connect 24 (North America only)
l
Set the communication path: [300]
l
Enable the alternate communicator: [383] option 3 for Ethernet, and [383] option 4 for cellular.
l
The Ethernet or Cellular receivers IP and Port: [851]
l
Enable event reporting: [307]/[308]
l
Program communication delay timer: [377]
l
Program DLS access: [401] option 07
Refer to Section 5: Programming for details.
Communication paths
The path of communication between the alarm panel and the central station must be established through either the alarm panel’s on-
board Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) connection (Ethernet) or through the cellular alarm communicator if equipped.
Communications options
The following alarm panel options must be programmed when configuring the alternate communicator:
[300] Option 02: communication path (see
"[300] Panel/Receiver Communication Paths "
[380] Option 01: communications enabled/disabled (see
[383] Option 03: ethernet communications enabled/disabled, [383] option 04: cellular communications enabled/disabled
[308][351]-[356] Reporting codes (see "[351] Alternate Communicator 1")
[401] Option 7: DLS access (see "[401] DLS Options")
Communication attempt limit
If a telephone line monitoring (TLM) trouble is present, the number of PSTN dialing attempts is reduced from the programmed value
to 0 attempts. See programming section
for details.
Supervision restore
If the alarm system experiences a failure to communicate (FTC) with the central monitoring station, it automatically attempts to
transmit the failed event when communications are restored when [383], option 5 is enabled.
