UL Operation Mode
UL operation mode should be enabled in Protege GX system settings. Select Sites | Controllers | Options and
then select Advance UL Operation for the Protege GX system to operate in UL compliance mode.
This setting has the following effects:
⦁ Adds a 10 second grace period following a failed poll before a module is reported as offline.
Each module sends a poll message to the controller every 250 seconds. The module will be reported as offline
if no poll has been received for the duration of this poll time plus the 10 second grace period.
⦁ Suppresses reporting of all alarms and/or reportable events to a monitoring station within the first two
minutes of the controller powering up. The system will continue to send poll messages as usual.
⦁ Reports 'Input Tamper' events as 'Input Open' events when the area that the input is assigned to is armed. If
the area is disarmed an 'Input Tamper' message will be sent.
⦁ Limits the Dial attempts for reporting services to a maximum of 8.
This setting must be used in conjunction with the other configuration requirements as noted in this section.
