48 - Engineer Access
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Option 48 – Engineer access
This option allows access to be authorized for engineers for system programming and for managers in order to
add/delete/change all user codes.
48.1 = System Access
This option allows system programming of the Galaxy panel and is sub-divided into 1 = Engineer and
2 = Manager.
48.1.1 = Engineer
The engineer code is assigned programmed as dual by default. This prevents the engineer from accessing
engineer mode unless authorized to do so by a valid code. To gain access to the engineer menu a type 3.6
user must enter their code, and enable the Engineer Access option. This provides a five minute period during
which a single entry of the engineer code provides access to engineering mode without causing a tamper
alarm. Once the engineer mode has been accessed, there is no time limit on the access period.
If the Engineer Mode option has not been enabled, or the code is not entered within the five minute period,
then the Engineer code is invalid and has no effect.
If the PIN is programmed without the #, the Engineer Access option does not require to be enabled to allow
the engineer to gain access to engineer mode. The engineer code requires to be entered twice. The first entry
activates a tamper alarm which is cancelled by the second entry.
NOTE: Dual entry of the engineer code in a system requiring user authorization does not give access to
engineer mode.
When a manager gives authorization, from menu 48.1, for engineer access, the access is limited to one visit
only. When the engineer returns the system to user mode, the authorization is still valid for five minutes. After
this time it must be granted again by the manager.
48.1.2 = Manager
This option allows type 3.6 manager codes to be enabled for user code adding/deleting/changing. This option
can only be enabled by the authorization code. However, this option is not used by default. Manager codes
are always authorized. It can be enabled, if required, to comply with standards in certain regions. An authori-
zation code must be assigned in Menu 42 Codes, before the function is enabled.
48.2 = SIA Access
This option allows access to the SIA alarm signalling format and has two levels of access
48.2.0 = Full Access
This option allows a SIA level 4 user to send commands to the Galaxy control panel. The user can reset the
panel after an alarm signal.
48.2.1 = Limited access
This option only allows up to SIA level 3 access but excludes resetting of the panel after an alarm signal.
