Section 5: Programming
OFF: Incoming AC power cycles at 60Hz.
Note: For UL/ULC listed systems, use only 60Hz setting.
2 – Crystal Timebase
ON: In situations where AC power input is unstable, the alarm controller’s internal crystal is used as the time base.
OFF: The 50 or 60 Hz AC power input is used as the time base.
3 – AC/DC Inhibits Arming
ON: The system cannot be armed when an AC or DC trouble is present. This includes keypad, keyswitch, automatic, and
DLS arming. An error tone is generated if the user attempts to arm the system during an AC/DC trouble.
Note: Displaying AC troubles ([016] option 2) is strongly recommended if this option is enabled.
OFF: The system can be armed, regardless of the presence of an AC or DC trouble and does not check the system battery
upon arming.
4 – Tampers Inhibit Arming
ON: Tampers must be restored through Installer Programming before the system can be armed (including no-activity and key-
switch arming).
When this option is enabled, manual zone bypassing does not bypass the tamper or fault states (DEOL). This feature also
applies to zone faults.
OFF: Tamper troubles do not latch and do not prevent arming.
5 – Real-Time Clock
ON: The alarm system sends a real-time clock request to the alternate communicator at 4:05 PM or when system time is lost.
The system uses the acquired time as system time.
OFF: The alarm system does not send a real-time clock request to the alternate communicator. Local time setting is used as
the system time.
6 – Not Used
7 – Brownout Detection
ON: If AC drops below the acceptable level, the alarm system generates an AC trouble.
OFF: AC Brownout detection is disabled.
Note: This option must be enabled for UL/ULC Commercial Fire installations.
8 – DLS Disconnect
ON: All events except Periodic Test Transmission, Periodic Test with Trouble, and System Test are considered priority
events. If DLS is active when an event occurs, the alarm system immediately terminates the connection in order to com-
municate the new events.
OFF: Only the following alarm type events terminate a DLS session:
l Zone alarms
l FMP key alarms
l Duress alarms
l Zone expander supervisory alarms
l 2-wire smoke alarms
[025] System Option 13
1 – European Dial
ON: Pulse dialing make/break ratio is 33/67.
OFF: Pulse dialing make/break ratio is 40/60.
2 – Force Dial
ON: The system dials the central station phone number even if no dial tone is present. The process is as follows:
1. Dial programmed phone number.
2. If no dial tone detected, terminate call.
3. Search for dial tone for 5 seconds.
4. If no dial tone detected, hang up for 20 seconds.
5. Search for dial tone for 5 seconds.
