Accessing Engineer Mode
User Authorized Access
Entry to the engineer mode is authorized by a user with access to menu option 48.1 = ACCESS AUTH.
Engineer. The user selects this option and presses key 1 to enable engineer access. The engineer code must
then be entered within five minutes of the option being enabled. A single entry of the engineer code directly
accesses the mode, without activating an engineer tamper alarm. If the code is not entered within the five
minute period, the engineer code is invalid and has no effect. Once the engineer mode has been accessed,
there is no time limit on the period that the engineer can remain in the mode.
1. Enable Engineer Access:
User Code (12345) + ent + 48 + ent + ent + 1 + ent (press esc to return to the banner)
2. Access Engineer Mode
Engineer Code (112233) + ent
On accessing engineering mode, any group that is set becomes inaccessible to the engineer. The set groups
cannot be assigned to zones, outputs and any other functions permitting group allocation. When the engineer
code is entered three things happen:
• All system tampers become isolated.
• The engineer is given access to the full menu.
• The banner message is changed to indicate engineer mode.
Exiting from Engineer Mode
To exit from engineer mode and return to the normal banner enter, carry out the following operation:
1. Return to the engineer banner
2. Enter the engineer code
3. Press the esc key
The Galaxy carries out the following checks:
1. That there are no module or zone tampers. If there are any module or zone tampers the escape
procedure is aborted.
2. That it is communicating with all of the attached modules.
If any modules are reported as missing from the system, the Galaxy prompts the engineer to
remove each of the missing modules by pressing the key. If the engineer does not remove the
missing modules, the escape procedure is aborted.
3. That all of the access doors (controlled by the on-line MAX) are closed. If any of the access doors
are open, then the exit procedure is halted until all of the doors are closed.
4. That there are no power failures on the galaxy system, such as AC fail, fuse fail or battery fail
