56 - Communications (cont’d)
2 = Mode
1 = Direct Access
This permits access at anytime. Once access is authorized, uploading, downloading and remote servicing can
begin.
2 = Manager Authorize
There are two methods that an authorized user can use to enable access to the Galaxy via Remote Servicing:
• Timed Access: Remote Servicing must access the Galaxy within 40 minutes of this option being
enabled by the manager. Once connected, there is no time limit on the access period. On terminating the
connection, Remote Servicing can reaccess the system within a 15 minute period of the termination.
• Call Back: the manager instructs the Galaxy to initiate a connection to a PC (with Remote Servicing
software loaded) by dialling one of the numbers programmed in the Call Back option.
3 = Call Back
Up to five telephone numbers can be programmed into this option. Remote Servicing requests the Galaxy to
call back to one of the numbers.
NOTES:
1. If Manager Authorize is selected as the Remote Access Mode, then the telecoms module can only
make outgoing calls - it is disabled from answering all incoming calls. This allows another telephone, fax or
answering machine to be connected to the line without interference from the telecom module when calling into
the premises.
2. If Call Back is selected, then access to the Galaxy is denied unless the call back option in Remote
Servicing is used to initiate the connection.
56.1.13 Call Home
Not used
56.1.14 Alarm Monitoring
This option is used to allow events to be dialled to a PC with Alarm Monitoring software loaded.
The Alarm Monitoring option transmits alarm events information only when all of the alarms have been sent
to the ARC (or all five of the communication attempts have been unsuccessfully made). If a new alarm event
occurs while the system is transmitting in the Alarm Monitoring mode, the transmission is terminated and the
alarms are sent to the ARC using the primary format selected.
The menu structure and programming of the Alarm Monitoring options are identical to the SIA format.
Refer to option 2 = SIA for programming details.
