Downloading Program Remote Site Upload/Download
• contact the primary and secondary Central Stations
• contact the first available Central Station phone number
Once contact has been established, the control panel will report a ‘request for upload/download’
message. Following ‘kissoff’ of the request by the Central Station(s), the control panel will then
call the appropriate Service Terminal and begin the downloading process.
Any time a download with callback disabled is initiated, the control panel and the Service Terminal
will communicate and transfer data without first contacting a Central Station. When the data
transfers are completed and the control panel disconnects from the Service Terminal, the control
panel will call the Central Station and report one of the following conditions:
• Upload/download request received
• Upload and/or download request successful
• Upload/download failed
To prevent the 'request for upload/download' message(s) from being reported to the Central
Station(s), make certain to disable all upload/download reports back to both Central Stations.
During the downloading process, the fire protection remains active
. Should a system trouble or
alarm condition occur, the control panel immediately terminates downloading and processes the
trouble or alarm locally and transmits the information to the Central Station(s).
6.1.1 Security Features
Remote site upload and download with the control panel has been carefully designed to include key
security features to ensure proper functionality. The key features are listed and explained below.
Secret Code Verification
A secret code is stored in the control panel by a Service Terminal to prevent unauthorized access.
The secret code is created at the Service Terminal by the master user and cannot be viewed or
changed by anyone other than a master user. Viewing of the secret code is prohibited at the control
panel. Prior to allowing an upload or download of data, the control panel will verify the secret code
transmitted by the Service Terminal.
Time-out at Control Panel
Upon answering an incoming call on either the primary or secondary Central Station phone line, the
control panel will listen for a modem connection signal. If this signal is not received within 30
seconds, the control panel will disconnect the call. Upon successful connection (secret code
verified and callback completed if applicable), if no communication occurs within five minutes, the
panel will disconnect the call.
Callback to Service Terminal
Any time the control panel is requested to allow an upload or download, it will confirm the source
of the incoming call, hang-up and call back the calling party (Service Terminal phone number).
Panel Identification Number
The panel identification number is typically used to identify the panel to the Service Terminal when
the control panel calls the Service Terminal. If more than one call comes into the Service Terminal,
the control panel ID number is used to sort out the calling parties.
Another use of this code allows for identical secret codes to be placed into multiple control panels
at one jobsite, using the panel ID number to distinguish between the individual panels.
