Introduction The Galaxy 2-44 is a programmable alarm control panel that will allow you to protect your home or business by providing secure and reliable intruder detection. The system can be fully tailored by your installer to operate in the most convenient way for your lifestyle or working practice.
Group operation can only be set up by an installer. The Galaxy 2-44 can be split into 3 separately controllable groups. If your system has been set up with Group operation, look for the notes on Groups throughout this manual.
Keypads There are two types of keypad available as shown below but both work in a similar manner. The number button is for entering PIN codes and for changes options. The function keys down the side have the following use: A>: This scrolls forward in a list or menu and activates a FULL set.
Wireless Keyfobs Keyfobs are portable controllers that can be attached to your key ring. They will allow you to Set and Unset the system by a single press of a button and can some- times be programmed with additional functions. Because they operate by radio, they can be used anywhere around the premises provided that they are in range of the installed radio receiver.
Setting the System - Part or Night Part and Night set is similar to Full setting but leaves off certain detectors as agreed with your installer. Additionally, the system can be programmed by the installer not to give any exit timer tones during the setting period (silent set).
Unsetting To unset the system, enter the protected area by the agreed route. A timed entry period will begin and a pulsed tone will sound. Keypad: Prox Tag: Wireless Fob: Type your user code Hold the tag in front Press the [OFF] button then press [ent]* of the PROX symbol * NOTE: Unsetting using a keypad may not be possible on DD243 compliant systems.
The status can be changed for each group by pressing the appropriate number button and the display will cycle through the possible options. S = SET GROUPS U = UNSET Pressing the ent key will implement the status shown. If a code, fob or tag is used while an entry timer is running or an alarm is in progress, the group that is active will be unset immediately, without any status needing to be changed on the keypad.
Menu 11 - Omit This function allows a user to temporarily disable a detection zone from the system (for example, to disable a movement detector when a dog is left in the house). Zone omits last for one set period only and automatically switch off when the system is unset. On entering the menu option, the first omittable zone is displayed.
Menu 22 - View Log This option displays the system event log. The log records all events that occur in the system and is vital for tracing the chain of events during a break-in or when trying to trace a fault. On entering the option, the most recent event is displayed on screen in the following format: Event Time Date...
Menu 31 - Walk Test This menu allows the system zones to be manually tested. There are two sub options to this function as follows: 1 = Test all Zones This puts all omittable zones into walk test immediately. 2 = Test Selected Zones This allows the user to select specific zones to be put into test.
