To jump partitions:
1.
From any hardwired touchpad, press
8
+
CODE
+
6
.
Touchpads display, “ENTER PARTITION” or
“ENTER CMD.”
2.
Press
1
if you want to change to Partition 1 or
2
if you want to change to Partition 2.
The touchpad sounds one short beep if the jump was
successful. One long beep means the jump was not
successful. Alphanumeric touchpads display the text
in the newly entered partition.
3.
Proceed to arm, disarm, or program as needed. The
partition assignment reverts back if no keys are
entered for 10 seconds.
Arming and Disarming the Other Partition
Once in the other partition, you need to use a code that is
valid in that partition to arm, disarm or program that parti-
tion.
Programming the Other Partition
Only one partition can be programmed at a time. When
one partition is using the programming menu, touchpads in
the other partition are locked out from any programming
activity. Arming and disarming can continue, however.
Some partition-specific settings share resources, such as
access codes and time schedules. For example, if Partition
1 uses Regular User numbers 00 through 20, Partition 2
will not be able to see or use those user numbers. The first
Regular User number available to Partition 2 would be 21.
The allocation of time schedules works in much the same
manner. There are 16 schedules that can be used by either
partition, but as soon as Partition 1 attaches a schedule to
any event, that schedule cannot be used by Partition 2, and
vice versa.
Using a Touchtone Phone to
Operate Your System
Your system may be equipped with a Phone
Interface and Voice Module that allows sys-
tem operation from a Touchtone phone on
or off the premises.
The module contains a digital-voice chip,
enabling programmed text to be spoken
through the phone and/or broadcast through interior speak-
ers. Except for custom words, the voice will speak the text
that appears on alphanumeric touchpads in the system.
Phone Command Prefix
What distinguishes a call to the panel from
any other out-going or incoming call is the
use of the Phone Command Prefix:
❑
In the case of on-site operation, if the
Phone Command Prefix is dialed first
(within 5 seconds of picking up the phone),
the panel pricks up its ears and waits for a
valid access code or command.
❑
If the system is being accessed remotely,
the Phone Command Prefix is used in con-
junction with the access code.
The prefix is usually
ƒ
, but can be changed to
‚
by the
installer. If your prefix has been changed, use
‚
as the
first key you press instead of
ƒ
.
Accessing the System from Off-site
To access the system from off-site, the system needs to
recognize two things about the call:
❑
The panel needs to recognize that it should answer the
phone.
❑
The panel needs to recognize that the code entered has
the authority to operate the system from off-site.
When using a cellular phone to operate the system, follow
the off-site operating instructions.
How the Panel Answers the Phone
When you call the panel, it needs to recognize that it
should answer the incoming call. This is accomplished by
one of two methods:
❑
Ring-Hang-Ring method
❑
Twelve-Ring method
Ring-Hang-Ring Method.
You can use this method if
there is no chance that an answering machine or person
will pick up the call on the first ring.
1.
Call the panel. (In most cases this is the same number
as the regular phone.)
2.
Let the phone ring once, then hang up.
3.
Wait between 8 and 30 seconds, then call the panel
again. This time the panel will answer (“System
hello,”) on the first ring.
4.
Enter
ƒ
(your designated Phone Command Prefix).
5.
Enter your access
CODE
.
6.
You hear a short status message, such as, “System is
OK.”
7.
Proceed with system commands.
Twelve-Ring.
You can use this method if there is no
chance that an answering machine or person will pick up
the call before the twelfth ring.
1.
Call the panel and let the phone ring. The panel will
answer “System hello,” after the twelfth ring.
2.
Enter
ƒ
(your designated Phone Command Prefix).
3.
Enter your access
CODE
.
