the auto-arm postpone timer expires. Valid entries are from 001 -
255 minutes, the default is 005.
NOTE: There is no differentiation between the No-Activity Pre-
alert and the Standard Auto-arm Pre-alert at a keypad. No Activity
Arming and Auto-arm will log and transmit as a Special Closing.
5.4 Partition & Zone Programming

[201] - Partition Selection Mask

This selection allows the programming of which partitions will be
active on the system.

[202]-[265] - Partition Zone Assignments

Partitions and Zone Assignment

A partition is a limited area of the premises which will operate
independently of another area of the premises. You can create up
to eight partitions on the PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 system.
To set up the system for more than one partition, you must turn on
each partition in section [201].
You can assign any zone to any of the partitions. Global Zones
are zones assigned to more than one partition. A global zone will
only be armed when all assigned partitions are armed. The zone
will be disarmed when any assigned partition is disarmed. By
default, zones 1 through 8 are assigned to partition 1. If additional
zones are being used, or if the application requires more than one
partition, you must program which zones are assigned to which
partitions. You can do this in programming sections [202] - [265].
NOTE:
You can assign any Access Code to work on any of the par-
titions (see section '[*][5] Programming Access Codes').
You can assign keypads to work on either a single partition, or on
all partitions (Global operation). See Section 2 Keypad Assign-
ment.
Each partition can be programmed to report using a different
Account Number.
Some of the Programmable Output options are also selectable by
partition. See Section 5 Programmable Outputs

These eight bit toggle sections determines which partitions each
individual zone is assigned to. If a zone is enabled on any parti-
tion, it will be supervised via the panel's EOL supervision, and will
operate according to the zone type programmed. If a zone is not
assigned to any partition, it will not be supervised and all activity
on the zone will be ignored by the panel.

5.5 Communicator Programming

Communicator - Telephone Numbers

The panel can call 3 different telephone numbers for communica-
tion to central station. The 1st telephone Number is the primary
number, the 2nd telephone Number is the secondary number
and the 3rd telephone Number will back up the 1st telephone
number if enabled.
NOTE: The 3rd telephone number will NOT back up the 2nd tele-
phone Number.
If Alternate Dial is enabled the panel will alternate between the 1st
and 3rd telephone numbers when attempting to call the central
station. If disabled the panel will only attempt to call the 3rd tele-
phone number after failing to communicate on the 1st telephone
number.
NOTE: For Alternate Dial to work properly the 3rd telephone
Number must be both enabled and programmed.
Telephone numbers can be up to 32 digits which will allow you to
add special digits if required. To program the telephone number
enter numbers 0 through 9 as required.
To communicate events over a LAN or WAN network using the T-
Link module, program the desired phone number with DCAA. This
allows the panel to send events to the T-Link module in the SIA for-
mat via the PC-Link connection. Pressing [#] in these sections from
an LED keypad will exit and delete the rest of the phone number.
Pressing [#] in these sections from an LCD keypad will exit and
save the entire phone number up to the first Hex F.
The following is a list of HEX digits which can also be pro-
grammed and the functions they perform:
HEX (A)- not used
HEX (B)- simulates the [*] key on a touch tone telephone
HEX (C)- simulates the [#] key on a touch tone telephone
HEX (D)- forces the panel to search for dial tone
HEX (E)- forces the panel to pause for 2 seconds
HEX (F)- end of telephone number marker

[301] - First Telephone Number

[302] - Second Telephone Number

[303] - Third Telephone Number

NOTE: There is a static delay of 2 seconds before any additional
dial tone search in a phone number.
NOTE: The panel will not attempt to communicate, if no phone
number is programmed. This applies to Phone Numbers 1, 2 and 3.

[304] - Call Waiting Cancel Dialing String

This is a 6 digit Hex entry that is used to disable Call Waiting on a
Call Waiting equipped phone line. This is typically [*][7][0] in most
areas. Dialing this string before a phone number will disable Call
Waiting for the duration of the call. If this section is programmed
(not FF), and Section 382, Option 4 is ON, the panel will dial this
string in place of the first digit of the phone number (Sections
[301]-[303]). This only applies to the first attempt that is made to
each phone number.
NOTE: If not all 6 digits are required they should be filled with
Hex F. All 6 digits of this section need to be programmed in order
for any changes to be accepted.

Communicator - Account Codes

The System Account Code [310] will be used by the panel when
communicating System events (e.g. Low Battery, Test Transmis-
sion). This account code can be up to six digits in length for the
SIA Communications format. Only the SIA reporting format sup-
ports six-digit account codes.
NOTE: If the communicator is programmed for the SIA reporting
format, the system will use this account code for all partitions.
There are eight Partition Identifier Codes [311] to [318] (or
Account Codes) programmable, one for each partition. The
Account Code is used by central station to determine which panel
is calling.
If you have programmed the system for more than one partition,
you must program an account code for each active partition. The
panel will report to the central station by partition. For example, if
an alarm occurs on a zone assigned to Partition 1 the panel will
report using Partition 1 account code.
If using CESA format, the first digit of the partition account code
will automatically be 0. This value cannot be changed.

[310] - System Account Code

This is the Account Code used by the panel when communicating
System events (i.e. Low Battery, Test Transmission, etc.).
This account code can be up to six digits in length for the SIA
Communications format.
Only SIA supports six digit account codes. If the last two digits of
the account code are FF, the panel will only use the first four dig-
its. The call directions that use this Account Code are System
Maintenance (Troubles, Zone Faults, etc.) and System Test
Transmissions.
