2. SETTINGS – 01. AMBUSH CODE
At this address, you set the parameter as:
DISABLE Ambush code is not supported - the parameter is deactivated.
ENABLE Ambush code is supported - the parameter is active.
This setting allows users to use an authority code during unauthorized forcing to disarm the system
(ambush code).
The ambush code is a personal code that disarms the system but still sends an alarm signal to the
central monitoring station to indicate that the user has been forcefully made to disarm the system.
After entering the ambush code the system will be disarmed with no sound signalization from the
sirens, but is generated “silent panic” alarm – the event is recorded in the memory LOG file and an
alarm message is sent to the central monitoring station.
The ambush code is produced from a personal code by increasing the last digit by one. If the last
digit is 9, it is replaced by 0.
The ambush code for 1234 is 1235, and for 9009 is 9000.
The parameter status is changed with pressing of random digit button of the keyboard. The change
is confirmed with ENTER button.
Parameter by default: DISABLE

2. SETTINGS – 02. KBD BLOCK
At this address, you set the parameter as:
DISABLE The keyboard blocking mode is disabled.
ENABLE
The keyboard block mode is enabled
– the keyboard buttons will be blocked for
90 seconds if three wrong codes are entered in sequence, a continuous sound
signal is heard.
At this address, the engineer allows blocking the keyboard buttons for 90 seconds when three wrong
user codes are entered in sequence.
The access to the system is blocked only for that keyboard through which the three wrong user
codes are entered. A continuous sound signal is heard when the access through the keyboard is
enabled again.
The keyboard blocking mode will be activated when the time between entered wrong codes is less
than 15 seconds.
The access to a blocked keyboard can be restored also after entering of valid engineer code using
any other keyboard connected to the system bus.
In keyboard blocking mode, the LCD keyboard displays a message “Keyboard is locked” and a
backward timer shows the remaining time to normal mode.
In keyboard blocking mode, the LED keyboard displays the numbers from 1 to 16 (1 to 8 for LED8/
LED 16A) lighting off one by one during the backward timer.
The parameter status is changed with pressing of random digit button of the keyboard. The change
is confirmed with ENTER button.
