4. PROGRAMMING
OVERVIEW
This section covers the field programming of the Model 37-MAX. Since the Repeater Pal can
only be programmed using DTMF commands over the radio, this means that the basic
installation and level adjustments must already have been made before programming can
done.
The process of getting into and out of the programming mode is covered first, then the
specific commands are discussed in detail. The commands have been grouped according to
their general purpose: User, System, and Diagnostic.
PROGRAM MODE ACCESS
The programming mode can be accessed by entering the Program Mode Access Code over
the radio. The default value for the Program Mode Access Code is “12037”, but it can be
changed to any other 5-digit code. The Model 37-MAX will respond to decoding a valid
access code by transmitting a “go-ahead” tone consisting of five short beeps. This same
prompt is used throughout the programming process to indicate that the panel is ready to
accept the next programming command.
If the access code decoded by the 37-MAX is invalid, then the panel will ignore the attempt.
Manually Resetting the Access Code
There are a number of ways in which the Program Mode Access Code in use can be rendered
useless; you change it, don’t write the new one down and forget what it is, someone else
changes it and either won’t or can’t tell you what they changed it to, etc. In this situation, the
panel’s programming must be manually reset to factory defaults in order to use the default
access code. This is also a good argument for keeping a complete and current record of the
panel’s programming so that it can be restored as quickly as possible.
The procedure for manually resetting Model 37-MAX programming to factory defaults is as
follows:
1. Turn off power to the 37-MAX.
2. Press and hold the Disable button while power is restored to the Model 37-MAX.
3. Continue to hold the Disable button in and watch the Status LED on the front of the unit.
The Status LED will light for the first 2 seconds, then it will be off continuously for about
10 seconds.
4. After 10 seconds, the LED will start to flash, indicating that the 37-MAX has completed
resetting all its programming to defaults. Release the Disable button.
