TERM DESCRIPTION
Keybus A circuit (usually 4-wire) which provides power and serial data connection between keypads and
other accessories and the alarm panel.
Keyfob A small security hardware device with built-in authentication used for system's security control
LED Stands for "Light emitting diode", dened as a solid-state light source that emits variable light, or
invisible, infrared radiation.
Main Power The main power source of the system.
Master/User Code Allows to carry out system arming/ disarming as well as minor system conguration and control by
the keypad.
MS mode is mode that enables data transmission from the ESIM384 alarm system to the
monitoring station.
Normally closed (NC) is a switch that passes current until actuated.
Normally open (NO) is a switch that must be actuated to pass current.
On-board is some element that is installed and functional within a device (system).
Partition System comes equipped with a partitioning feature that can divide the alarm system into a number
of independently controlled areas identied as Partition 1 through 4, which are all supervised by
one alarm system unit. Partitioning can be used in installations where shared alarm system is more
practical, such as a house and a garage or within a single multi-storey building. When partitioned,
each system element, like zone, user phone number, keypad, user password, iButton key and EWK1/
EWK2 wireless keyfob can be assigned to single or multiple partitions. The user will then be able to
arm/disarm the system partition (-s) that the zones and arm/disarm method, except EKB2 keypad,
are assigned to.
Periodic Test Event Provides the following information on alarm system: date & time, status (armed/disarmed), GSM
signal strength, mains power supply status, temperature value measured by primary and secondary
temperature sensors (if any). The system sends this information to User 1 at the time intervals pro-
grammed into the scheduler.
Peripheral device A peripheral device is dened as a device, such as a keyboard, that is not part of the essential system
i.e., the memory and microprocessor.
These devices are intended to be connected to the system and used.
PGM output A PGM output is a programmable output that toggles to its set up state when a specic event has
occurred in the system, the scheduled weekday and time has come or if the user has initiated the
PGM output state change manually.
Ping period Sets period of time dening how often ESIM384 sends ping data packet to the Cloud Services server.
Protocol A formal specication for communicating; an IP address the special set of rules that end points in a
telecommunication connection use when they communicate. Protocols exist at several levels in a
telecommunication connection.
Relay is an electromagnetic device opted for remote or automatic control that is actuated by variation in
conditions of an electric circuit and that operates in turn other devices (as switches) in the same or
a dierent circuit.
Scheduler Through the use of the system's built-in clock, it is possible to schedule automatic operations such
as setting and unsetting output state.
Service mode Mode that should be used when it is necessary to re-install some of the peripheral devices (to
change batteries, open/close enclosure and etc.). In this mode, system does not check for tamper
faults so it won't start siren alarm or send specied notications to monitoring station or by SMS
text messages to users. Service Mode can be enabled only when system is disarmed.
SMS forward System can re-sent all incoming SMS messages to the specied users. It is useful if the GSM operator
of the inserted SIM card sends some useful information (SIM card validation or payment account
status and etc.) or it is necessary to monitor all incoming SMS messages by specied user.
Tamper The tamper circuit is a single closed loop such that a break in the loop at any point will cause a tam-
per alarm regardless of the system status – armed or disarmed.
Transformer A device formed by two or more windings, that are magnetically coupled to each other and provide
a transfer of power electromagnetically from one winding to another.
