IDS404 INSTALLER MANUAL

11. Hardware Reset Switch

In the event that the installer code is lost, it is possible to reset the
panel to its factory default values using the hardware reset switch
labelled SW1 on the main PC board. Provided that the reset switch
has not been disabled (see location 21) the panel may be defaulted by
removing both battery and AC power from the panel, and then
reapplying the power ( AC /battery) while depressing the switch. Factory
default values will be restored to all locations.
:
NOTE
Once the reset switch has been disabled it is not possible to default
the panel using the reset switch. The panel may only be defaulted if a
valid installer code is used and a value of [0] is entered into location 0.

12. Event Log

The IDS404 maintains an internal log of all events which may be
communicated through the onboard communicator. The 190 most
recent events will be retained. Once the event log is "full" the oldest
event will be overwritten by the most recent event. An event is logged
regardless of whether or not the panel is programmed to communicate
the event.
The event log can only be retrieved by means of the Windows based
download/upload software and appropriate modem.
The time of each event is not logged in absolute terms i.e. time of day
and date but relative to the previous event. The date and time
indicated on an uploaded event log is calculated by the PC using the
clock time. Since the time at which the upload event was initiated
PC
is known, all other times can be calculated relative to this event.
The IDS404 does not contain an onboard battery to maintain the clock
time in the event of a total power failure (AC mains failure and
discharged battery) therefore in the event of a total power failure it will
not be possible to calculate the absolute time at which an event took
place. The relative time of each event will still be indicated.
