Option 1-9-3: Choosing EN50131 Configuration Options
01 – 4 Digit Codes / 6 Digit Codes
4 Digit Codes (default) – All system user (access) codes are four digits.
6 Digit Codes – All user (access) codes are six digits. When using six-digit user codes, the
default engineer code is 123400 and the default manager code is 567800.
You cannot change this setting if the engineer or default manager (user 01) code has
been changed, or any other user code has been set up in User option 2-4. Users can be
deleted using option 2-7-3-7 (page 110) and 2-7-3-8 (page 110).
02 – Internal Sounder / Local Sounder
Internal Sounder (default) – If an alarm occurs while the Entry Delay timer (page 57) is
running, both the extension speaker and keypad sounders operate for 30 seconds. Once
the 30-second period has expired, a full alarm occurs (page 26), unless overridden by
option 1-8-4 (page 72).
Local Sounder
– Operation is the same as above, but external sounders and the strobe
also operate for the first 30 seconds.
03 – Int Sounder Inst / Int Sounder Dly
Not used. Do not change.
04 – Instant Alarm / Delayed Alarm
Instant Alarm (default) – Causes system and ward Alarm outputs (page 43 and 51) to
activate immediately a full alarm is generated by the Entry Delay timer (page 57)
expiring.
Delayed Alarm
– Causes system and ward Alarm outputs to be delayed by a further 30
seconds.

Tampers As Alarm (default) – If there is a tamper condition when the system is set, the
panel will:
Communicate both alarm (CID code 130) and tamper (CID code 137) messages
to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). This requires the Contact ID format (page 92)
to be used to communicate messages using the on-board modem (not
applicable to M550 and M750).
Trigger system, ward and zone outputs of type "Alarm" and "Tamper Alarm" (or
"Tamper"). Please see the following table.
If there is a tamper condition when the system is unset, the panel will:
Transmit only tamper (CID code 137) messages to the ARC (not applicable to M550
and M750).
Trigger system, ward and zone outputs of type "Tamper Alarm" (or "Tamper").
Tampers As Tamps – If there is a tamper condition when the system is set or unset, the
panel will:
Transmit only tamper (CID code 137) messages to the ARC.
