Default User Codes
Default User Code: 1234
Default Engineer Code: 112233
Menu Access Operation/Navigation
Only valid codes can access the Galaxy 2 Series menu options.
Type the code then press ent to access the menu. Data entry, on
both ECP and RS485 keypads, is via the 0-9 function keys and
the * and # on the keypad.
The A> and <B keys are cursor or scroll keys and are used to
scroll through options in menus.
The ent key is used to enter a PIN code and to accept screen
information.
The esc key is used to cancel or exit from the current operation.
NOTE: Users cannot view or access options for which they are
not authorised.
How to get in and out of Engineer Mode
Entry to Engineer Mode is authorised by a user in menu option
48 = Level 3 Access. Following this, the engineer will have 5
minutes in which to enter his code. When the engineer code is
entered three things happen:
• All system tampers become isolated.
• The engineer is given access to the full menu.
• The banner message is changed to indicate Engineer Mode.
To bring the system back out of Engineer Mode and reinstate all
the tampers, from the banner, the engineer enters his code, but
then presses the esc key rather than the ent key. A 30-minute
window is activated to allow the engineer back into engineer
mode without re-authorisation by a user.
How to Set and Unset
To Full Set the system, the user types their code then presses the
A key.
To Part or Night Set the system, the user types their code then
presses the B key. The user now has a choice of pressing 1 to
Part Set or 2 to Night Set.
To Unset the system, the user types their code then presses ent.
Alternatively, presenting a valid tag at a prox reader or pressing
the 'Off' key on a wireless keyfob can also unset the system.
How to Cancel an Alarm, Tamper or Fault
Alarms, tampers and fault conditions can be cancelled by
entering a user code at a keypad. When the code is entered, the
conditions activated will be displayed. The scroll keys (A> and
<B) can be used to view all the events. Alarm conditions can also
be cancelled by pressing the 'Off' button on a wireless keyfob or
by presenting a valid tag at a proximity reader. However, a code
will need to be entered at a keypad in order to see and restore the
alarms.
How to Restore an Alarm
Alarms, tampers and fault conditions will be restored provided:
• The cause has cleared and
• A user with sufficient authority has viewed the condition on a
keypad (any user if technistore).
If a user is unable to restore an alarm, then a manager or engineer
will have to be called.
Zone Address Format
Galaxy zones are given addresses rather than zone numbers. This
is because the zones are grouped into blocks of 8 called 'RIOs'.
On board the panel there are 2 RIOs. The first RIO (0) has only 4
zones (addressed 1001 to 1004) and the second RIO (1) has 8
zones (addressed 1011 to 1018). As can be seen, the right hand
digit is the individual zone number and the second digit is the
RIO address, which can be 0 to 5, including all the expanders.
Each zone can also be given a text descriptor. By default, it is
blank.
All individual zone programming is done in menu 52.
Zone Wiring
The default zone configuration is 1k double-balanced as shown
below:
Any unused hardwire zones should always have a 1k resistor
wired across the zone terminals to terminate them.
The configuration for the zones and the resistance values used
can be reprogrammed from menu option 51.46 = Parameters.
Zone Resistance. The cable run on each zone should be no more
than100 m.
Output Address Format
Galaxy outputs are addressed in the same way as the zones.
However, there are only 4 outputs on each RIO. The on-board
outputs are all on RIO 0 and have the addresses 1001 to 1004.
RIO 1 on-board does not have programmable outputs.
All individual output programming is done in menu 53.
Output Wiring
The on-board outputs are all open-collector switched negative.
The load that is to be controlled by an output should be
connected between +12 V and the output terminal.
Note: Output 1002 is set up by default as a 16-ohm speaker
driver. This means that the output is gives an AC audio signal.
This is not suitable for driving a normal sounder, relay, LED, etc.
However, the mode can be changed in menu 51.15 if a normal
output mode is needed.
Power Wiring
Auxiliary power can be drawn from the AUX+ terminals shown.
The'common' terminals on the zones are 0 volts.
