Telephone Line Monitor (TLM)

When the TLM Enable option is selected, the panel will supervise the phone line and will indicate a trouble
condition if the phone line is disconnected.
If the TLM Enable option is ON, the panel will check the telephone line every 10 seconds. If the telephone line voltage
is below 3V for the number of checks programmed in the TLM Trouble Delay section, the panel will report a TLM
trouble. The default number of checks is 3. Enter a number from [000] to [255] in the TLM Trouble Delay section to
change the number of checks before the TLM trouble is reported. Programming a delay means that a momentary
interruption of the phone line will not cause a trouble condition.
If the TLM Trouble Beeps When Armed option is enabled, the panel will indicate a TLM trouble at the keypad while
the system is armed. To activate the bell output in the case of a TLM trouble while the system is armed, the TLM
Audible (Bell) When Armed option must be selected.
When the trouble condition is restored, the panel can send a TLM Restoral reporting code. Any events which occur
while the phone line is down will also be communicated.
If the GSM1000 cellular communicator, or LINKS2X50 is being used, the panel can be programmed to send a TLM
Trouble reporting code.

Siren

If you program the Bell Delay timer, after a zone triggers an audible burglary alarm the panel will delay sounding
the bell for the programmed amount of time (000-255 minutes). If a user enters an access code during this time
period, the panel will not activate the bell.
Zones programmed as 24-hour zones will not follow the Bell Delay timer. The bell will activate immediately
when 24-hour zones are violated.
The Bell Delay timer will also delay any PGM outputs that follow the main bell.
The Bell Delay feature will not work if the Audible Exit Fault option is enabled.
The siren will silence after the number of minutes programmed for the Bell Cut-off time have passed.
The panel supervises the Bell output. If an open condition is detected, the panel will immediately indicate a
trouble condition by beeping the keypad twice every 10 seconds to alert the owner of the problem. The panel
can send a Bell Circuit Trouble and Trouble Restoral reporting codes to indicate the situation (see Section 5.7
"Communicator – Reporting Codes").
If the Temporal Three Fire Signal option is enabled, all Fire signals will follow the Temporal Three pattern as described
in NFPA 72. If turned OFF all Fire signals will sound a one second on, one second off cadence.
If Fire Bell Continuous is enabled, the alarm output will sound until a code is entered. If disabled, the alarm will
sound until a code is entered or the bell cut-off time has expired. If Fault State Sound the Alarm Bell is
enabled, the external alarm output will sound if a fault occurs. If disabled, the external alarm will not sound.
Only fire zones will follow the Temporal Three Fire Signal.
Whenever the bell is sounding an alarm condition, the keypad buzzers will also sound. The buzzers will sound
until a valid access code is entered.

Test Transmission

To ensure that the communication link with the central station is functioning properly, the panel can be programmed to
send a test transmission signal on a regular basis.
The panel can send a Periodic Test Transmission reporting code at the programmed Test Transmission Time of Day.
The Test Transmission Cycle determines the period of time between tests. The option Land Line Test Transmission in
Minutes/Days allows you to select whether the Land Line Test Transmission cycle will be counted in minutes or days. If you
have selected the test transmission cycle to be in minutes, the Test Transmission Time of Day counter will not apply.
The GSM1000 Test Transmission can only be programmed in days.
The Test Transmission Cycle must be greater than 10 minutes. A cycle timer of less than 10 minutes will cause
damage to the control panel.
