Swinger Shutdown
The Swinger Shutdown feature is designed to prevent a
runaway communicator from tying up the central station.
After the panel has communicated the programmed number
of transmissions for an event, it will no longer report that
event until the Swinger Shutdown is reset.
By default, the
Swinger Shutdown
limit is set to [003]. The
panel will not send more than three alarm signals for each
zone until the Swinger Shutdown is reset.
Swinger Shutdown will be reset every day at midnight when
entering Installer’s Mode, or when the panel is armed. Once
reset, the panel will again communicate normally.

Event Buffer
The panel will store the last 100 events which occurred on
the system. The Event Buffer will contain the name, time and
date of each event, along with the zone number, user code
number or any other information pertaining to the event.
If the
Event Buffer Follows Swinger Shutdown
option is
enabled, the Event Buffer will not store events after the
Swinger Shutdown level has been reached. This will prevent
the panel from overwriting the entire buffer if a problem
exists.
The Event Buffer can be viewed in three different ways: from
an LCD keypad (see Section 3.4 – [
✱
] [6] “User Functions”),
printed on-site using the PC5400 printer module (see Section
5.29 – “On-Site Printer”) or it can be uploaded using DLS
software.

Keypad Lockout
The panel can be programmed to “lock out” keypads if a
series of incorrect user codes are entered. Once the
Number
of Invalid Codes Before Lockout
limit has been reached,
the panel will lock out the keypad for the
Lockout Duration
and log the event to the Event Buffer. For the duration of the
Lockout, the panel will sound an error tone when any key is
pressed.
Keypad Lockout will reset every hour.
To disable the keypad lockout option, program the
Number
of Invalid Codes Before Lockout
as [00].

Keypad Blanking
If the
Keypad Blanking
option is enabled, the panel will turn
off all lights on the keypads when no keys are pressed for 30
seconds. The keys, however, will remain backlit.
The panel will turn the lights back on when any key is
pressed or when the entry delay begins or if an audible
alarm occurs.
Keypad Blanking Option ..................... Section [11], Option [5]
5.22
Loop Response
The normal loop response time for all zones is 500
milliseconds. The panel will not consider a zone violated
unless it is violated for at least 500 milliseconds.
If
Fast Loop Response on Zone 1
is enabled, the loop
response for zone 1 will be 40 milliseconds. Typically this
can be used for vibration type sensors.
Fast Loop Response on Zone 1 ......... Section [81], Option [6]
5.23
Keypad Tampers
If the
Keypad Tampers Enable
option is selected, the panel
will sound the keypad buzzers when disarmed or the bell
while armed, display and transmit a
General System Tamper
Reporting Code if any keypad is removed from the wall.
When the keypad tamper is restored, the panel will transmit
the
General System Tamper Restoral
Reporting Code. All
keypads should be properly installed and secured before
enabling this option.
If the
Latching System Tamper
option is enabled, any
system tampers must be reset by entering [
✱
][8][Installer’s
Code] before the system can be armed. Auto-Arming and
Keyswitch arming will also be prevented in the presence of
any system tamper.
Manually bypassing the tampered or faulted zone(s)
(DEOL) will not be allowed if this option is enabled.
If the
Engineer Reset
option is enabled, any zone alarm,
zone fault or zone tamper must be reset by entering
[
✱
][8][Installer’s Code] before the system can be armed.
Auto-arming and keyswitch arming will also be prevented
after a zone alarm, tamper or fault. Keypad Tampers and the
PGM2 Input do not affect the Engineer Reset Option.

Restoral Reporting Code ....................................... Section [39]
Latching System Tamper ..................... Section [81], Option [3]
Engineer Reset Enable ....................... Section [81], Option [1]
After enabling Keypad Tampers, it is recommended
to tamper and restore all keypads to ensure proper
functionality.
If Keypad Tampers are disabled and Keypad Tampers
had previously been indicated, the panel must be
powered down to clear the trouble.
5.24
On-Site Printer
With the addition of the PC5400 printer module, the panel
will print all events as they occur to a local, on-site serial
printer. All events will include the time and date when they
occured.
