About Downline Loading
Downline loading is a process of transmitting from a remote location all the programmable data into
the control unit. Data that has been programmed locally through an operating panel may also be
loaded to the remote location. The ADT Service Terminal is located at the remote location, and the
transmission takes place over the dialing network by means of a Service Channel. Downline loading
requires the Service Terminal.
Downline loading can be initiated from the Service Terminal or by the ADT installer at the customer's
premises. The sequence of events that are involved in the downline loading are determined by the type
of communication that is involved, and whether the operation is being done for the first time during
installation or is being done for a subsequent change to an existing customer database.
Downline Loading Security
As a security measure, in order to prevent the downline loading of data from a source other than ADT,
the control unit will not accept any data without first calling back the Service Terminal. This callback
requirement is controlled by an activation byte. On a new installation, when the control unit is preset
to the factory defaults, the activation byte is cleared in the control unit's memory. This permits the
control unit to accept data from the service terminal without first calling the CCC and the Service
Terminal. When the initial data has been downloaded, the control unit communicator verifies the
telephone number of the CCC and the service terminal by making a callback to each. If the telephone
numbers are correct, the service terminal sets the activation byte in the control unit memory to prevent
attempts to download unauthorized data.
Programming the Control Unit for Downline Loading
