Table 20: Auto programming options [1] 
  Description 
  This option controls whether devices are 
automatically assigned to zones. The number 
of devices assigned to a zone is based on the type of panel: 
•  VS1 panel: Four devices per zone 
•  VS4 panel: Sixteen devices per zone 
Yes: The system automatically finds all of the devices connected to the system and 
assigns them to a zone. Only the primary element of dual element detectors are 
assigned to a zone. See Zone configuration for details. 
No: The system automatically finds all of the devices connected to the system and 
does not assign them to a zone. 
  Configures the panel to communicate with a central monitoring station (CMS) via an 
Ethernet network. 
Note: The selected option (Yes or No) will only be applied to IP Account 1. There will 
not be any change in the settings of other IP accounts and they will continue to hold 
the previously set values. 
Yes: Enables Ethernet communication with the central monitoring station (CMS). 
No: Disables Ethernet communication with the CMS. 
  Configures the panel to communicate with the CMS via a dialer. The dialer is 
configured as a dual line so that all messages are sent to two separate receivers with 
different phone numbers and account codes. 
Note: Not all dialer programming options are acceptable for UL/ULC installations. See 
“UL/ULC programming requirements” on page 35 for details. 
Yes: Enables the dialer and configures it for dual-
line communication with the CMS. All 
messages will be sent to two separate receivers that have different phone numbers 
and account codes. 
No: Dialer is not enabled. 
  Configures event reporting for zones, individual devices, or both. 
Zone: When a device is a member of a zone, only the zone information is sent to the 
LCD, LEDs, printer, and dialer. Device level reporting configuration is not available. 
Zone/device: Zone information is sent to the LCD and LEDs. Device information is 
sent to the printer and dialer. Zone/device reporting locations can be configured 
through custom programming. 
Device: Only device information is reported, no zone information 
  Configures the auto programming sequence to allow you to label devices using the 
alphanumeric keypad. 
Yes: Enables device labeling 
No: Disables device labeling 
  Configures the auto programming sequence to allow you to label zones using the 
alphanumeric keypad. 
Yes: Enables zone labeling 
No: Disables zone labeling
