9. Communications Menu
9.1 Line Fail Response
Use this option to specify how the system should respond when the panel detects a line-fail fault
from the plug-by communicator. The panel monitors for line faults by using the LF input on the
plug-by port. The communicator should apply 0V to the LF input if there is no fault, and 12Vdc if a
fault is present.
Audible
ABUS Security-Center GmbH & Co. KG recommends audible response for line fault. If the
system is unset, the system logs the event. Keypads and loudspeakers produce a short
audible tone after Line Fail Delay when the line response changes from OK to fail. Entering
a valid access code silences the tone and the display indicates a line fault. The system can
be set again with the line fault present.
If the system is set, the panel logs the event but does not give any tone or display. The
panel cancels any programmed siren delay if the line is out of order when an alarm occurs.
Silent
If the system is unset, the keypad display indicates a line fault, the LEDs around the
navigation key glow red, and the panel logs the event. The system may be set again with
the line fault present.
If the system is set then the panel does not give any indication or tone but does log the
event. The panel cancels any programmed siren delay if the line is out of order when an
alarm occurs.
Disabled
The panel does not monitor the line.
9.2 Line Fail Delay
Use this option to specify the length of time the panel waits after detecting a line-fail fault on a
communications path from the plug-by port before it generates an alert, actives communications
and activates line-fail outputs.
Note: The panel may take a few seconds to recognise a line fail. The actual delay
between line fail and the resulting alert will be slightly longer than the value you
specify.
