So that you can obtain the most from your unit, we suggest that you take the time to read through this manual and familiarise yourself with the numerous outstanding operating features of this system.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Features Solution 6+6 control panel uses the very latest in microprocessor technology to provide you with more useful features and superior reliability and performance. Following is a list of the main features that the control panel will provide.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Basic System Operation The overall purpose of your alarm system is to deter any would be intruder from entering your premises. Before leaving your home or office, make sure all windows and doors are closed. Enter your designated followed by the button.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Code Retries Code retries restricts the amount of times an invalid user code can be used in an attempt to operate the system. An alarm caused by this is known as a "Codepad Tamper Alarm". When a codepad tamper alarm occurs, the system will carry out the following events;...
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Alarm Memory If you return to your premises and you notice the strobe light flashing, then care should be taken as this indicates that there has been an alarm condition while you were away. When you enter the building and disarm the system, you will notice one or a number of zone indicators flashing rapidly.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Day Alarm Day alarm may be used to monitor the front door of a shop or a pool gate. Day alarm enables a combination of zones to be monitored while the system is in the disarmed state. An indication is available via any of the programmable outputs including the codepad buzzer.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Entry Time Entry time is the amount of time allowed to disarm your system after you have opened the entry delay zone. During the entry time, the codepad buzzer will beep twice per second warning you to disarm your system. An alarm will activate if you do not disarm your system before the entry time expires.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual User Codes The purpose of user codes is to arm and disarm the system as well as perform other specific functions as described in the Master Code Functions on page 34. User codes can be any length between one to four digits long. Each user code can have a different priority level allocated to it.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual User Code Priority There are seven different priority levels that can be allocated to the user code. Each priority level allows or restricts the functions that different user code holders may perform. If user code priority levels 4, 6 or 12 have been programmed to any of the available 8 user codes, the method of standard isolating will no longer operate.
Page 18
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Arm and Disarm + Master Code Functions This priority level allows arming and disarming of the system and the ability to carry out any of the Master Code Functions described on page 34. More than one user code can be allocated to this priority level.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual System Indicators and Operations CP5 Eight Zone Codepad The codepad is the communications interface between you and your alarm system. It allows you to issue commands and offers both visual and audible indications that guide you through the general operation.

Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Fault Descriptions Low Battery A low battery fault will register when the battery supply voltage falls below 10.5 volts or when a dynamic battery test detects a low capacity battery. This fault will clear after a successful dynamic battery test. A dynamic battery test...
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Codepad Duress Alarm A codepad duress alarm can be used as a hold up alarm. This will occur when the number is added to the end of any valid user code that is being used to disarm the system.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Master Code Functions Master Code functions are designed to allow those users that have the appropriate priority level to perform certain functions of a supervisory level. These functions can only be carried out while the system is in the disarmed state.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Changing and Deleting User Codes This function allows a Master Code holder to add/change or delete any of the system user codes. When changing or deleting user codes it is important that you know the number of the user you wish to change or delete. Your installer should provide you with this information at the time of installation.

Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Strobe Test Holding the button down will operate the strobe. No other device will operate in this mode. If an EDMSAT – Satellite Siren has been connected to the control panel, this function will also test the strobe on the satellite siren.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Fault Analysis Mode There are various system faults that can be detected by the control panel. When any of these are present, the indicator will begin to flash and the FAULT codepad will beep once every minute. Refer to "Fault Descriptions" on page 32 for a more detailed description on each fault type.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Codepad ID and Beeper Tone Change Holding down the button for two seconds performs one of two functions. The first function is to indicate the area that the codepad belongs to. The second function changes the tone of the codepad buzzer. There are fifty different tones to choose from between 1500 Hz and 5000 Hz and they are specific to each codepad.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Partitioning Solution 6+6 control panel can be partitioned or split into two individual areas. Both areas can be operated from one Master Partitioned codepad or from a number of separate addressable codepads. In this case, one of each will be designated to a particular area.
Page 50
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Partial Indicator The partial indicator displays whether an area is armed in STAY Mode (ie. If indicator is illuminated, an area is armed in STAY Mode and if PARTIAL indicator is not illuminated, no areas are armed in STAY Mode.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Operating Codepads When Partitioned Operating From Area “Addressable” Codepads If you have a partitioned system with “Area Addressable” codepads, the operating procedure is exactly the same as described throughout this manual. Refer to “Codepad ID and Beeper Tone Change” on page 48 to determine which area a particular codepad belongs to.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Communication Options Solution 6+6 Your control panel has a communications dialler fitted to report all alarms and system events. These events can be reported to a number of destinations via different transmission formats. These different formats have varying levels of ability.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Remote Arming Via The Telephone This feature allows you to arm your system from any remote location via the telephone line. For obvious security reasons, the system cannot be disarmed using this method. To make use of this feature, you will require a touch tone telephone or the phone controller.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Domestic Dialling Reporting When the control panel has activated into alarm condition, it will commence dialling the first programmed telephone number. If a busy or engaged tone has been detected, the control panel will hang up and commence dialling the second telephone number (if one is programmed).
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Basic Pager Reporting Basic pager reporting has been introduced so that alarms and system information can be transmitted to a pocket pager allowing you to receive information from your alarm system at any time. Basic pager format requires some interpretation of the numbers that appear on the display, however, it is possible to differentiate between 1000 different control panels when a number of control panels are reporting to the one pager.
Solution 6+6 Operators Manual Optional Equipment There are numerous accessories and features that can be added to your alarm system. Contact your installer for more information on any of the accessories listed below. EDMSAT - Satellite Siren To enhance the security of your system a satellite siren is available. When tampered with or disconnected from your system it will still continue to emit its ear shattering warning sound.
