MISCELLANEOUS SETUP AND DIAGNOSTIC DATA
TEMPORARY OUTPUT DISABLE - P837E
P837E Temporary Output Disable - This address allows a technician to select any output/s to be
temporarily disabled for one alarm or armed cycle, e.g. by turning on LEDS 1-8 at P837E then
leaving program mode, outputs 1-8 will not turn on following any alarms. The technician is now
free to arm the system to test all monitoring signals without having all of the internal & external
alarms activating. When the alarm is reset or disarmed all outputs will now work normally again.
CLEAR OUTPUT DEFAULTS - P846E
P846E 1-8E Clear Output Defaults 1-8 - This option is used to remove ALL default options assigned to any
output. This is a particularly useful tool when reassigning outputs to special functions such as
smoke detector reset, where you need to remove the standard defaults from an output. In
addition to removing all default programming this option will also make the reset time for the
selected output/s “0”.
DATA TRANSFER USING EE² BOARD (DTU)
P838E Write to EE² Board - with the optional back-up EE² board plugged into the serial connector on
the panel and the write enable link fitted on the EE² board, entering P838E will write a copy of
the panel program files to the EE² board.
P839E Read from EE² Board - this address allows a copy of a panel program files to be downloaded
into a panel (the program files must first have been copied to the EE² board - refer P838E). Note:
When transferring data from this board to a panel, the software versions of the two panels (the
one where the data files were created and the panel receiving the files) must be the same
otherwise the panel may not work correctly.
DYNAMIC DATA - P830E - P833E & P849E
These addresses are used to provide real time feedback from the panel as to the current status. These are
intended as view only addresses and only available in installer program mode.
P830E Misc System Flags - This address currently has only one option that shows the status of
Daylight Saving. If LED 8 is On then Daylight Saving is currently active.
8 = Daylight Saving active
P831E Display keyboard address - This option will cause the keypad you are operating to display it's
currently assigned address from 1-8. This feature is only available in installer program mode.
P832E Display partitions assigned to this keypad - This option will cause the keypad you are
operating to display it's currently assigned Areas. This feature is only available in installer
program mode.
P833E Display software version - This address will cause the panel software version to be flashed
back at the keypad.
P849E Active Time-Zones - If Time Zones are being used, by entering in this address while in
Installation Program Mode the panel will display any of the 8 time zones currently active. If LED’s
1-8 are On they indicate active time zones.
START PRINTING THE EVENT BUFFER - P834E
P834E Start Event Printing - The alarm system stores the last 255 events in a printer buffer. These events
include time, date and an event description. To print the events, assuming the Serial Board is plugged
into the panel (with the link set to printer on the serial board) and connected to a printer with an RS232
input, a user with permission to print (e.g. P101-P150 option 4) enters client program mode (P-code-E,
program LED on solid), then enters P834E, the entire contents of the event buffer will be sent to the
printer.
