12.5 Dialer Direction

Ref #: [000400XX02] where XX = telephone number 00-02
The Dialer Direction programming section determines
which reporting codes will be sent to which telephone
number. Three groups of reporting codes can be selected:
• alarms and restorals
• openings and closings
• all other miscellaneous codes
These groups can be programmed to communicate to any
or all telephone numbers.
By default, all reporting codes are sent to the first telephone
number only. The dialer direction options are toggle
options which are either enabled ([Y]es) or disabled ([N]o).
Dialer options are programmed individually for each tele-
phone number. The reporting codes in each group are indi-
cated in Appendix A 'Reporting Codes'.

12.6 Communicator Formats

Ref #: [000400XX01] where XX = telephone number 00-02
Each telephone number must be assigned a format to com-
municate with the central station. There are several differ-
ent communicator formats available. The default format is
20 BPS 2300Hz Handshake.
10 BPS 1400/2300Hz Handshake Formats
• Data = 1900 Hz
• Kissoff = 1400/2300 Hz
• Speed = 10 Baud
20 BPS 1400/2300Hz Handshake Formats
20 Bits Per Second is the standard fast format used on DCI,
Franklin, Sescoa and Vertex receivers.
• Data = 1800 Hz
• Kissoff = 1400/2300 Hz
• Speed = 20 Baud
These formats will send an account code to identify which
customer is sending the alarm, and a reporting code to
identify the type of alarm. Depending on the receiver, the
account code must be either three or four digits, and the
reporting code must be either one or two digits.
If the account code requires only three digits, program the
system ID code and each partition account code with 3 dig-
its, followed by a [0]. If you wish to send a zero in the
account code, program it with a HEX A. For example, to
program account code 103 enter '1A30'.
If the reporting code needs to be only one digit, program
the second digit as a [0]. For example, to program a report-
ing code as '3,' enter '30'. To send a zero, program HEX A
into the reporting code. For example, to send reporting
code '30,' program '3A'.
For instructions on programming HEX digits, see 3.4 'Pro-
gramming Hexadecimal Data'.
Contact ID
Contact ID is a specialized format that will communicate
information using tones rather than pulses. This format
allows more information to be sent faster than other for-
mats. For example, in addition to reporting a Zone 1 alarm,
the Contact ID format can also report the type of alarm,
such as an Entry/Exit alarm.
To program Contact ID, a 2-digit number from Appendix A
must be entered for every event to be transmitted. The 2-
digit number determines the type of alarm. The panel will
automatically generate all other information, including the
zone number.

Additional Notes on Contact ID
1. Account Numbers must be four digits.
2. All reporting codes must be two digits.
3. Substitute the HEX digit 'A' for the zero (0).
4. To prevent the panel from reporting an event, the
reporting code should be programmed as [00] or [FF].
Please refer to Appendix A 'Reporting Codes' and Appen-
dix B 'Zone Reporting Codes' for a list of suggested Contact
ID Identifiers for each event.
Auto-Contact ID
Ref #: [000401] and scroll to option
When programmed, the Auto-Contact ID automatically
generates the Contact ID reporting codes for all events. Pro-
gram [00] to disable the event from reporting.
NOTE: Several fire related reporting codes are set to 99 by
default to ensure they are transmitted. If using Contact ID,
these code need to be reprogrammed. See Appendix A for
the specific codes.
Contact ID Identifier Toggle Options
• Partial Closing Identifier Partial Closing Identifier: This toggle option controls Partial Closing Identifier Partial Closing Identifier
whether the Partial Closing reporting code will be trans-
mitted with an identifier of 4 or 5 when using Contact
ID.
• Opening After Alarm Identifier Opening After Alarm Identifier: This toggle option con-
Opening After Alarm Identifier Opening After Alarm Identifier
trols whether the Opening After Alarm reporting code
will be transmitted with an identifier of 4 or 5 when
using Contact ID.
SIA FSK
SIA is a specialized format that will communicate informa-
tion quickly using Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) rather than
pulses. The SIA format will automatically generate the type
of signal being transmitted, such as Burglary, Fire, Panic etc.
The 2-digit reporting code is used to identify the zone or
user code number.
NOTE: If you use a communication format other than Auto-
matic SIA for any of the backup telephone numbers, make
sure that the appropriate reporting codes are programmed.
AutoRep SIA
Ref #: [000401] and scroll to option
If the SIA format is selected, the panel can be programmed
to automatically generate all zone and user code numbers,
thus eliminating the need to program these items.
If the 'AutoRep SIA' toggle option is enabled, the panel will
operate as follows:
1. If an event's reporting code is programmed as [00], the
panel will not attempt to call the central station.
2. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any-
thing from [01] to [FF], the panel will automatically gen-
erate the zone or user code number.
The Communicator Call Direction options can be used to
disable the reporting of events such as openings and clos-
ings.
If the 'AutoRep SIA' toggle option is disabled, the panel will
operate as follows:
1. If an event's reporting code is programmed as [00] or
[FF], the panel will not attempt to call central station.
2. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any-
thing from [01] to [FE], the panel will send the pro-
grammed reporting code.
For Communicator Toggle Option programming, please see
12.4 'Communicator Toggle Options'.
Zone Label Sent with Events
With this feature the installer can choose to have the zone
label transmitted along with the zone event, when using
SIA. When this option is enabled, whenever the panel
transmits an event which identifies the zone number it will
transmit the programmed label for that zone number
