Residential Dial; Private Line Format; Pager Format; Pulse Formats - DSC PC1832 Reference Manual

The Communicator Call Direction Options can be used to disable
reporting of events such as Openings/Closings. Also, if all the
Opening/Closing reporting codes were programmed as [00] the
panel would not report.
If the SIA Sends Automatic Reporting Codes option is disabled
the panel will operate as follows:
1. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as [00] or
[FF] the panel will not attempt to call the central station.
2. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as anything
from [01] to [FE] the panel will send the programmed report-
ing code.
3. Bypassed zones will not be identified when partial closing the
system.
NOTE: If using Downlook, do not program the second telephone
number for the SIA reporting code format (Section [360]) if the
Automatic Reporting Code option is enabled (Section [381]).
NOTE: The zone number for Zone Low Battery and Zone Fault
events will not be identified when Programmed SIA is used.

Residential Dial

If Residential Dial is programmed and an event that is pro-
grammed to communicate occurs, the panel will seize the line and
dial the appropriate telephone number(s). Once the dialing is
complete, the panel will emit an ID tone and wait for a handshake
(press a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, , or # key from any telephone).
It will wait for this handshake for the duration of Post Dial Wait
for Handshake timer. Once the panel receives the handshake, it
will emit an alarm tone over the telephone line for 20 seconds. If
several alarms occur at the same time, only one call will be made
to each telephone number the panel is programmed to call.

Private Line Format

The Private Line format allows the communication of zone
alarms directly to a user over a telephone line. When an event
occurs that the panel is programmed to communicate, the panel
seizes the line and dials the programmed telephone number(s).
The panel then emits a double beep on the line every 3 seconds.
This indicates to the user receiving the call that the control panel
is calling.
The user must acknowledge the call by pressing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 0, * or # from any touchtone telephone. The panel will wait
for this acknowledgment for the duration of Post Dial Wait for
Handshake timer.
The panel will then indicate which zone is in alarm by sounding a
corresponding number of beeps (e.g three beeps for Zone 3). The
user must then press a key (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, * or #) to
acknowledge the alarm. If the panel has another alarm to commu-
nicate, it will sound a corresponding number of beeps for the new
zone alarm. The user must then press a key to acknowledge the
signal. When there are no further alarms, the panel will hang up.
NOTE:
Events not received by the central station due to an FTC
will not be transmitted via the Private Line format.

Pager Format

The Communicator Format option for either telephone number
can be programmed for Pager Format. If an event occurs and the
Communicator Call Direction options direct the call to a tele-
phone number with the Pager Format selected the panel will
attempt to page.
When calling a pager extra digits will be required to make it work
properly.The following is a list of Hex digits and what function they
perform:
Hex [A] - not used
Hex [B] - simulates the [] key on a touch tone telephone
Hex [E] - two second pause
Hex [C] - simulates the [#] key on a touch tone telephone
Hex [F] - end of telephone number marker
Hex [D] - forces the panel to search for dial tone
The panel will attempt to call the pager one time. After dialing the
digits in the telephone number the panel will send the account
number and reporting code followed by the [#] key (Hex [C]).
There is no ringback when using Pager Format. The panel has no
way of confirming if the pager was called successfully; a failure to
communicate trouble will only be generated once the maximum
number of attempts has been reached.
NOTE: Do not use the digit C in a reporting code when using
Pager Format. In most cases, the digit C will be interpreted as a [#],
which will terminate the page before it has finished.
NOTE: If the panel detects a busy signal, it will attempt to page
again. It will make the maximum number of attempts pro-
grammed in section [165].
Force dialing should be disabled when using Pager format.
NOTE: When using Pager format, you must program two hex
digit E's at the end of the telephone number.

Pulse Formats

Depending on the pulse format selected the panel will communi-
cate using the following:
• 3/1, 3/2, 4/1 or 4/2
• 1400 or 2300 Hz handshake
• 10 or 20 bits per second
• non-extended
The digit '0' will send no pulses and is used as a filler. When pro-
gramming account numbers enter four digits. When programming
a three digit account number the fourth digit must be programmed
as a plain '0' which will act as a filler digit.
If an account number has a '0' in it, substitute a HEX digit 'A' for
the '0'. Examples:
• 3 digit account number [123]- program [1230]
• 3 digit account number [502] - program [5A20]
• 4 digit account number [4079] - program [4A79]
When programming reporting codes two digits must be entered. If
one digit reporting codes are to be used the second digit must be
programmed as a '0'. If a '0' is to be transmitted substitute a HEX
digit 'A' for the '0'.
Examples:
• 1 digit reporting code [3] - program [30]
• 2 digit reporting code [30] - program [3A]
To prevent the panel from reporting an event program the report-
ing code for the event as [00] or [FF].
NOTE: This communication format cannot be selected if Down-
look is required.

Scantronics Format

This is a DTMF format that sends reporting codes as:
• One 4-digit account code
• Eight 1-digit reporting channels (event code)
• One 1-digit status channel
The software automatically generates a code for the event based
on the programming of the call direction groups.
Channels
12345678
aaaaxxxxxxxxi
AccountEventStatus
CodeCodeCode
When you program the reporting codes for zones and events
(programming sections [320]-[353]), program them in the format
XY, where:
X= channels 1-8Y= event code (0-9)
If your central station uses a Scantronics 5100 receiver, only pro-
gram numbers from 1 to 6 for the event code.
