cator which communicates over LAN/WAN/Internet to the SG-System II or SG-System
II receivers.

Appendix B: UL Listed Commercial and Residential Installations
ULC Central Station Fire and Burglary Monitoring Installations
• For installation requirements, levels of security, communication modules and configura-
tions (Refer to the ULC Installation Information Sheet, DSC #29002157)

toring)
• All tamper circuits may be connected to the same zone
Programming
The notes in the programming sections describing the system configurations for UL/ULC
listed installations shall be implemented
Control of the Protected Premises
In order to have a UL certificated system the protected are is to be under the responsibility
of one ownership and management (i.e., one business under one name). This may be a
group of buildings attached or unattached with different addresses but under the responsi-
bility of someone having mutual interest. The person of the mutual interest is not the
alarm-installing company.
Bell Location
The alarm sounding device (bell) shall be located where it can be heard by the person
operating the security system during the daily arming and disarming cycle.
Protection of the Control Unit
The local control unit and the local power supply must be protected in one of the follow-
ing ways:
• The control unit and audible alarm device must be in a protected area which is armed 24
hours a day.
• Each partition must arm the area protecting the control unit and the audible alarm device
power supply. This may require duplicate protection armed by each partition. Access to
this protected area, without causing and alarm, will require that all partitions be dis-
armed.
• In all cases described above, the protected area for the control unit must be programmed
as not-bypassable.
Casual Users
The installer should caution the user(s) not to give system information (e.g. codes, bypass
methods, etc.) to casual users (baby-sitters or service people). Only the One-Time Use
codes shall be given to casual users.
User Information
The installer should advise the users and note in the User's Manual:
• Service organization name and telephone number
• The programmed exit time
• The programmed entry time
• Test system weekly
• The installer's code cannot arm or disarm the system
SIA False Alarm Reduction Installations
Minimum required system consists of one Control unit model PC1864 or PC1832 or
PC1616 and any one of the compatible listed keypads: PK5500, PK5501, PK5508,
PK5516, PKP-LCD, PKP-ICN. For a list of the defaults value programmed when the unit
is shipped from the factory and for any other programming information refer to Appendix
C: False Alarm Reduction.
The following optional subassembly modules also bear the SIA CP-01-2000 classification
and may be used if desired: PC5108 Zone Expander, PC5208 PGM Output Module,
PC5204 Auxiliary Power Supply and PC5400 Serial Output Module.
CAUTION
• For SIA FAR installations use only modules/devices that are listed on this page
• Fire Alarm Verification feature (Auto Verified Fire Zone type [29]) is not supported on
2-wire smoke detectors zones. This feature may be enabled for 4-wire smoke detectors
only . The fire alarm delay is 60s.
• Call Waiting Cancel (Section [382], Option 4) feature on a non-Call Waiting line will
prevent successful communication to the supervising station.
• All smoke detectors on the system must be tested annually by conducting the Installer
Walk Test. Prior to exiting the walk test mode, a sensor reset must be conducted on the
system, [*][7][2] to reset all latching 4-wire smoke detectors. Please refer to the smoke
detector installation instructions on how to correctly test the detectors.
NOTES
• Programming at installation may be subordinate to other UL requirements for the
intended application
• Cross zones have the ability to individually protect the intended area (e.g. motion detec-
tors which overlap)
• Cross zoning is not recommended for line security Installations nor is to be implemented
on exit/entry zones.
• There is a communication delay of 30 seconds in this control panel. It can be removed, or
it can be increased up to 45 seconds at the option of the end user by consulting with the
installer.
• Do not duplicate any reporting codes. This applies for all communication formats other
than SIA or CID sending automatic programmed reporting codes.
• The security system shall be installed with the sounding device activated and the com-
municator enabled for transmission using SIA or CID format.
