Setting The Clock; Auto-Arm Time Of Day; Auto Disarm Time Of Day; Quick-Arm - DSC PC2585 Installation Manual

Setting the Clock: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[1]
Setting the "System 24-hour Clock" (item [1]) tells the system the correct time of day. If the system is without battery
and AC power it cannot continue to keep time. Therefore when the panel is first powered up or when it has been without
AC power long enough to completely discharge the standby battery, the "System 24-hour Clock" must be reset. If the
time needs to be reset, a Trouble condition will be indicated with Zone Light 8 (see [ ][2] "System Trouble Command").
Setting the clock must include the day, month and year (e.g. HH : MM : DD : MM : YY).
Auto-Arm Time of Day: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[2]
The PC2585 can be programmed to arm at the same time each day. Programming item [2] sets this time and the feature
must be enabled as shown in item [5] (see Auto-Arm Enable below).
The keypad will sound for one minute before the system auto-arms. At the end of the one-minute warning period, the
system will be armed; note that there will be no Exit Delay. Auto-Arming may be cancelled using the following methods:
• Auto-Arm Abort: Any one key can be pressed to abort the Auto-Arm sequence and silence the keypad during the
one minute pre-alert (this is the default condition). If Section [23] Zone Light 3 is ON, then a valid 4 digit Access Code
is required to abort the Auto-Arm sequence. The Auto-Arm will be attempted at the same time the following day.
• Auto-Arm Abort with Transmission: Any time an Auto-Arm is aborted using one of the above methods, the Auto-Arm
abort reporting code programmed in Section [12] will be transmitted to the central station.
When the panel does arm by Auto-Arming, any open zones will be "Force-armed". If Zone Light 2 in Section [23] is
ON, the panel will send a partial closing code to let the central station know zones were bypassed. If Section [23]
Zone Light 1 is ON, the zones that were bypassed will be identified by transmitting their alarm code along with the
partial closing code.
Auto Disarm Time of Day: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[3]
The PC2585 can be programmed to disarm at the same time each day. In order for the panel to automatically disarm
at the time entered, program a valid time. To disable Auto Disarming, program an invalid time such as "9999".
Quick-Arm: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[4]
The "Quick-Arm" feature is enabled by pressing the [4] key while in the "User's Function Commands" section. When
enabled (enabled 3 beeps....disabled one long beep) the panel can be armed by entering [ ][0]. The closing code
transmitted for "Quick-Arm" is the same as the code which is programmed for the Master Code.
Auto-Arm Enable: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[5]
Entering [ ][6][Master Code][5] will enable/disable the Auto-Arming feature. When the feature is being Enabled, the
keypad buzzer will sound 3 beeps and when being Disabled the buzzer will sound one long beep.
Door Chime: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[6]
The "Door Chime" feature is enabled by pressing the [6] key while in the "User's Function Commands" section. When
enabled the keypad buzzer will beep quickly 5 times each time any zone programmed as a Door Chime type in Section
[18] opens or closes. The "Door Chime" feature does not operate on other zone definitions. Zone bypass may be used
to eliminate "beeping" on doors where it is not wanted. This feature operates only while the panel is disarmed.
Arm / Disarm Memory: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[7]
The Arm / Disarm Memory command displays the last Access Code to arm or disarm the system. When the command
is entered, the Access Codes are displayed on the Zone Lights. If more than one Zone Light is ON, add the zone
numbers to determine the Access Code (for example, if Zone Lights 2 and 8 are ON, Access Code 10 is indicated).
If Split Arming is disabled: the zone lights will display the last Access Code used to disarm the system. Press [9] to
display the last Access Code used to arm the system.
If Split Arming is enabled: the zone lights will display the last Access Code entered on the keypad. Press [9] to display
the second last Access Code entered on the keypad.
System Test: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[8]
The system test feature sounds the bell or siren, lights the keypad indicators and beeps the keypad buzzer for 2
seconds. If a Test Transmission Reporting Code is programmed in Section [17], it will be transmitted during the

System Test.

User Call-up: [ ]+[6]+[Master Code]+[9]
This function is enabled in Section [44]. When activated, the panel will call the downloading computer. The
downloading computer must be waiting for the panel to call before downloading can be performed.
