System Overview Introduction The TS590 is an advanced security alarm control systems using state of the art electronics to provide comprehensive but flexible protection for both domestic and commercial premises. The system comprises of a number of components linked to a central control unit which is concealed from view but accessible for maintenance.
Remote Keypads Your alarm system can be operated from one or more remote LCD keypads, which will have been strategically located within the protected premises. The LCD remote keypad is a full function keypad and can be used to program, test, set and unset the alarm system.
User Types The TS590 can have up to 15 separate users each user is assigned a passcode, and a user level. The user level defines what the user can access within the user menus, for a definition of each user level see “Set-up New Users”...
Full Setting The System The full setting procedure can be initiated from any remote keypad (if more than one is fitted). Before attempting to full set the alarm system ensure that all movement detectors are unobstructed and all doors, and windows are secure. From the unset (open) mode enter LCD Remote your passcode.
Unsetting the system The unsetting of the alarm system can be performed at any remote keypad. Enter the premises via the prescribed LCD Remote entry route and proceed directly to the remote keypad. The internal sounders generate an interrupted tone. The display will show the Enter Your Code remaining entry time.
Part Setting The System The TS590 can have up to three predefined part set configurations. Each configuration allows the alarm system to set with one or more circuits isolated. Normally the alarm company will configure each part set option, however the master user may also configure the part sets, providing the alarm company has programmed the alarm system to allow this facility.
Unsetting After an Alarm If an alarm has occurred whilst the alarm system is full or part set, the display will indicate the detection circuit that was triggered when you unset the system. Once the cause of the alarm has been established the system must be reset, see “Resetting after an alarm” on page 10.
Resetting After an Alarm Your alarm company will have programmed the system to be either “User Reset”, “Engineer Reset” or “Remote Reset”, consult your alarm company if you are not sure. User Reset If your system has been programmed as user reset, alarms can be reset by any user that has a valid passcode.
Remote Reset If your system is programmed as remote reset, alarms can be reset by your alarm company or via the exchange or unique passcodes. From step (3) of “Unsetting After an Alarm”, proceed as follows: The display will alternate between the circuit that cause d th e a l arm an d th e “C all LCD Remote Engineer To Reset System”...
User Menu 1 Introduction User menu 1 is accessed by entering your passcode followed by [ENT]. There are 12 menu options and access to these options will depend on your access level. LCD Remote ? ? ? ? User menu 1 Select Option :- Bell Test Sounder.
Bell Test This option allows you to periodically test the external sounders (bell and strobe) and internal sounders. When selected each device will operate in sequence for nine seconds. From the unset (open) mode enter your passcode and press [ENT] to select LCD Remote user menu 1.
Walk Test This option allows you to test the function of individual detection circuits without causing an alarm. As each circuit is activated the circuit number and status are displayed and the internal sounders generate a two tone “Chime” sound. Once the test has been completed the tested circuits can be reviewed in numerical order.
Change Passcode This option allows you to change your own passcode. The master users can also add and delete user passcodes, see “Set-up Users” on page 24. From the unset (open) mode enter your passcode and press [ENT] to select user LCD Remote menu 1.
Enable Chime Detection circuits that have been programmed as “Chime” will generate a two-tone sound when triggered. This option allows you to select one of the four chime options: 1 Disabled Chime circuits are disabled. 2 Enabled Chime circuits are enabled at all times. 3 Enabled in P/Set Chime circuits are enabled when the system is unset or part set.
Isolate/Re-instate Shunt Group One or more circuits can be assigned to the shunt group, this is normally done by your alarm company although the master user can also configure the circuits that are assigned to the shunt group, see “Alter Shunt Group” on page 27. Once a shunt group has been defined this option allows you to isolate and re-instate the circuits that are assigned to the shunt group.
Omit Circuits Occasionally it may be necessary to omit detection circuits when setting or part setting the system. This allows the user access to the omitted area(s) when the system is set or part set. It is also possible to omit 24hr or Auxiliary circuits so that access to these areas can be obtained when the system is unset.
Silent Set This option allows you to full set or part set the system silently, i.e. no exit sounder, accept for set confirmation tone. From the unset (open) mode enter your LCD Remote passcode and press [ENT] to select SYSTEM OPEN user menu 1.
User Menu 2 Introduction User menu 2 is accessed by pressing [ENT] whilst user menu 1 is selected. There are 10 menu options and access to these options will depend on your access level. LCD Remote ? ? ? ? User menu 2 Select Option :- View Circuits...
View Circuits This option allows you to ascertain the status of each detection circuit, The status for each circuit may be as follows: Healthy The normal status of a detection circuit, i.e. door closed or detector healthy. Active This is the alarm status of a detection circuit, i.e. door open or detector in alarm. Tamper This is the tamper open circuit status of a detection circuit, i.e.
Set Clock This option allows you to adjust the system clock. The clock is used for providing event times in the event log and is also displayed when the system is unset or full set. From the unset (open) mode enter your LCD Remote passcode and press [ENT] twice to select user menu 2.
Set Date This option allows you to set the system date. It is displayed in a date / month format on all LCD remote keypads. From the unset (open) mode enter your LCD Remote passcode and press [ENT] twice to select user menu 2.
Setup New Users The TS590 allows up to 15 users to operate the alarm system, each user is assigned a user type and a passcode. User 01 is the master user which has a default setting of 5678. User Types...

Alter Chime Circuits This option allows you to select which detection circuits will cause a chime tone when triggered. Once programmed, users that have access to user menu 1 can select one of the four chime options, see “Enable Chime” on page 17. From the unset (open) mode enter your passcode and press [ENT] twice to select LCD Remote...
Alter Shunt Group This option allows you to define which detection circuits are allocated to the shunt group. Once assigned to the shunt group all circuits within the group can be isolated by any user that has access to user menu 1 option 6 (Omit Shunt Group). The shunt group can also be assigned to a user code (Shunt), this allow the group to be omitted and re-instated by entering a 4 digit passcode.
Print System Log The system log stores 700 events. If a printer is connected to your alarm system it is possible to print a selected number of log events. From the unset (open) mode enter your LCD Remote passcode and press [ENT] twice to select user menu 2.
Set-up Part Sets The TS590 can be configured to have up to three parts set modes (Part Set A, Part Set B and Part Set C). This option allows the master user to configure each part set mode. Within each part set mode you must designate which circuits will remain armed and which circuits will be omitted.
View Log The TS590 store up to 700 events in the log. This option allows you to view each event. From the unset (open) mode enter your passcode and press [ENT] twice to select LCD Remote user menu 2. Whilst user menu 2 is selected. Press [9] to SYSTEM OPEN select the view log option.

Enable Remote Service If your alarm system has been fitted with a modem, the alarm company can dial into the system and remotely read and write data from the control panel. For added security, your alarm system can be programmed so that a master user has to authorise the writing of data to the control panel.
Initiate Service Call If your alarm system has been fitted with a modem it is possible for a master user to initiate an upload sequence to a remote site (normally the alarm company). Once the communication link is established, the remote site can read and write data from the control panel.
