SIA
SIA uses a 4 digit account number along with a modifier code packet (ri) in order to indicate the area or group. The
area or group number is equivalent to the node number of the panel and is not alterable by any other means.
Zone ID Reporting
The zone number of the signal (0-500) will be reported in the zone field of the transmission. The event code gener-
ated will be based upon the point which tripped within the zone, and will reference the standard SIA Event Block
Data Code definitions.
Reference Appendix G, Reporting Formats for translation details between the panel event and the Block Data Code
Definition.
Point ID Reporting
Point reporting uses the zone number field to depict the precise point of occurrence, regardless of the zone which the
point resides in. Some interpretation is required to map the point number to what is sent to the monitoring center.
Reference the matrix to see precise representation of the calculations.
Field Lpp
The field is depicted by Lpps where:
L = loop (0-2) [0=panel I/O]
pp= hexadecimal point value (00-FF)
s = subpoint value (0-3)
Point Value
As a result of the point number being represented in hexadecimal points from 00 – 255 can be annunciated.
Subpoint values are sent to the monitoring center with full subpoint reporting.
Point ID Reporting Format
Point ID reporting format provides the highest degree of information to the monitoring center.
Dialing Methodology
The embedded dialer uses an algorithm in order to attempt transmission to the monitoring center. This algorithm is
affected by the number of lines in use.
Dialing Facilities
If the user selects both line 1 and line 2, not only will both lines be used to try and dial the monitoring center, both
lines will be periodically checked to see voltage is present (this is not an assurance that the line is viable, although a
standard test).
If 1 line is checked the transmission and voltage checking will occur on only that line.
If neither line is checked the dialer will never attempt to send a message.
