Telephone Line Monitor (Tlm); Siren; Test Transmission - DSC PC5015 Installation Manual

P R O G
Care should be taken in selecting the normal and active states of each PGM output to ensure that an
undesirable output state does not occur after a loss and restore of AC power.
Attribute [2] (Partition 2 controls event) is turned off by default for all output options.
Attribute [3] must be ON (default) for PGM output options [16], [23] and [24].
If you program more than one PGM output as the same output type (e.g. If PGM1 and PGM2 are both
programmed as [19] Command Output 1), the settings for output attributes [1], [2] and [5] must be the
same. This does not apply to outputs programmed as types [09] and [10].

Telephone Line Monitor (TLM)

When the TLM Enable option is selected, the panel will supervise the phone line and will indicate a
trouble condition if the phone line is disconnected.
If the TLM Enable option is ON, the panel will check the telephone line every 10 seconds. If the telephone
line voltage is below 3V for the number of checks programmed in the TLM Trouble Delay section, the panel
will report a TLM trouble. The default number of checks is 3. Enter a number from [000] to [255] in the TLM
Trouble Delay section to change the number of checks before the TLM trouble is reported. Programming a
delay means that a momentary interruption of the phone line will not cause a trouble condition.
If the TLM Trouble Beeps When Armed option is enabled, the panel will indicate a TLM trouble at the
keypad while the system is armed. To activate the bell output in the case of a TLM trouble while the
system is armed, the TLM Audible (Bell) When Armed option must be selected.
When the trouble condition is restored, the panel can send a TLM Restoral reporting code. Any events
which occur while the phone line is down will also be communicated.
If the LINKS1000 Cellular Communicator, or an Alternate Communicator is being used, the panel can be
programmed to report a TLM Trouble Reporting Code.

Siren

The siren will silence after the number of minutes programmed for the Bell Cut-off time have passed.
The panel supervises the Bell output. If an open condition is detected, the panel will immediately indicate
a trouble condition by beeping the keypad twice every 10 seconds to alert the owner of the problem. The
panel can send a Bell Circuit Trouble and Trouble Restoral reporting codes to indicate the situation
(see Section 5.8 "Communicator – Reporting Codes").
If the Temporal Three Fire Signal option is enabled, all Fire signals will follow the Temporal Three Pattern as
described in NFPA 72. If turned OFF all Fire signals will sound a one second on, one second off cadence.
If Fire Bell Continuous is enabled, the alarm output will sound until a code is entered. If disabled, the
alarm will sound until a code is entered or the bell cut-off time has expired.
Only fire zones will follow the Temporal Three Fire Signal.

Test Transmission

To ensure that the communication link with the central station is functioning properly, the panel can be
programmed to send a test transmission signal on a regular basis.
The panel can send a Periodic Test Transmission Reporting Code at the programmed Test
Transmission Time of Day. The Test Transmission Cycle determines the period of time between tests.
The option Land Line Test Transmission in Minutes/Days allows you to select whether the Land Line
Test Transmission cycle will be counted in minutes or days. If you have selected the test transmission
cycle to be in minutes, the Test Transmission Time of Day counter will not apply.
The LINKS Test Transmission can only be programmed in days.
The Test Transmission Cycle must be greater than 10 minutes. A cycle timer of less than 10 minutes
will cause damage to the control panel.
