On/Off Description
ON Audible RF Jam Trouble Beeps Keypads will sound trouble beeps when an RF Jam Trouble is detected.
OFF An RF Jam will not sound Trouble Beeps Keypads will not sound trouble beeps when an RF Jam Trouble
is detected.
ON Double Hit Enabled Two alarms from the same zone within the Cross Zone Timer Duration will cause the
Police Code or Cross Zone to be logged and transmitted.
NOTE: The Double Hit feature cannot be used on DD243 Listed systems.
OFF Double Hit Disabled Two alarms from the same zone will not cause the Police Code or Cross Zone to be
logged and transmitted. Two different zones must be in alarm to transmit the Police Code or verify the
Cross Zone.
NOTE: This feature only applies to zones defined as Interior, Instant Stay/Away, Interior Delay,
Interior Stay/Away, or Delay Stay/Away (PIR Zones).
• This is a flexible extension of the existing Police Code.
• This feature is directly affected by the Cross Zone Timer.
ON Late to Close Enabled The panel will communicate and log a Late to Close event at the time programmed
for Auto-arm for each partition. This system toggle controls if the Late to Close Reporting Code is sent at
the end of the Auto-arm/Postpone Pre-alert. Use this feature for installations that require an audible warn-
ing if the panel is not armed by a certain time of day, but do not wish to have it arm. Anyone who hears
this warning should manually arm, or contact the Central Station to let them know why the panel has not
been armed by the programmed time.
OFF Late to Close Disabled The panel will neither communicate nor log a Late to Close event at the time pro-
grammed for Auto-arm for each partition.
NOTE: If the Auto-arm toggle option is disabled, the Auto-arm Pre-alert will still occur if there is a time
programmed for that day if this option is enabled. This option does not directly affect the functionality of
Auto-arm. If Late to Close is enabled and Auto-arming is not, LCD Keypads will still display "System Arming
in Progress" during the Late to Close Pre-alert.
ON Daylight Saving Time Enabled The panel will adjust between Daylight and Standard times according to
the programmed time of the year and number of hours in sections [168] and [169].
NOTE: Auto-arm and Test Transmissions should not be attempted between 0200 and 0300 hours, as they
will be missed during a daylight savings clock adjust. Events programmed to occur between 0100 and
0200 will occur twice during a daylight savings clock adjust. Daylight Savings Time programming under
section [168] and [169] shall not conflict with the Auto-arm and Test Transmissions programming.
OFF Daylight Saving Time Disabled The panel will make no automatic time adjustments for Daylight Saving
time.
ON Squawk on Away Arming/Disarming Only Bell Squawks will only be heard on Away Arming, as well as
upon Disarming after being armed in the Away Mode.
NOTE: This option controls when Bell Squawks are annunciated. This feature is to prevent the
Bell from being activated when arming from inside the premises.
OFF Bell Squawk on all Arming/Disarming Bell Squawks will be heard on all types of Arming and Disarming.
NOTE: This option follows the "Bell Squawk on Arming/Disarming" and "Bell Squawk Attribute" features.
On/Off Description
ON Periodic Test Transmission Exception Enabled With this feature enabled, the panel will not send a test
transmission if there has been a transmission sent to the receiver within the programmed time. Test Trans-
mission Exception allows any communicable event to reset the test transmission cycle, reducing the
amount of communications events sent to the central station, for example:
02/10 - Opening
02/11 - Closing
02/14 - Test Transmission
02/16 - Opening
02/18 - Closing
02/21 - Test Transmission
NOTE: If an event is communicated, the Test Tx counter is reset, ensuring that a Test Tx event
will not occur for an entire cycle from that point, instead of from the last Test Transmission
sent. An example is given below with test transmission set for every 3 days. This ensures that a
transmission is sent every 3 days to test communications, however, if an event has already
been sent in the last 3 days, a Test Transmission is not required. If the event was sent via land-
line, the landline Test Tx cycle is reset.
NOTE: In order for an event to reset the Test Tx cycle, a Kissoff must be received from the
receiver.
NOTE: The Test Transmission cycle will not be reset when events are transmitted using the
Pager (05) or Residential Dial (06) formats.
OFF Periodic Test Transmission Exception Disabled The Panel will always send a test transmission at the
programmed interval and time.
ON Keypad Buzzer Follows Bell Enabled The keypad buzzers will follow the selected partition's bell activity.
OFF Keypad Buzzer Follows Bell Disabled The keypad buzzer will not follow all bell activity. Only alarms des-
ignated to activate the keypad buzzer will do so.
