SPECTRA SERIES 41
PART 10: SYSTEM SETTINGS
10.1 HARDWARE RESET
Performing a hardware reset will set all control panel settings to factory default except for the Panel ID and PC
Password. Also, the event buffer will not be erased. To perform a power down reset:
1. Make sure the Installer Lock is disabled (see below)
2. Remove battery and AC power from the control panel.
3. Set the "
RESET
" jumper to on by placing a jumper on the "
RESET
" pins of the control panel.
4. Re-connect AC and battery power to the control panel.
5. Wait 10 seconds and remove the jumper.
10.2 INSTALLER LOCK
Section [282]: 000 = Disabled, 147 = Lock Enabled, Default = Disabled
Program 147 into section [282] to lock all programming. Hence, performing a hardware reset as described above
will not affect the current panel settings. To remove the Installer Lock, enter 000. Please note that four seconds after
resetting the control panel, the
STATUS
LED on the control panel will flash fast for 5 seconds to indicate that the
installer lock is enabled.
10.3 BATTERY CHARGE CURRENT
Section [127] - General Options
Option [5] OFF = Battery Charge Current - 350mA (default)
Option [5] ON = Battery Charge Current - 700mA (40VA transformer required)
10.4 PARTITIONING
Section [127] - General Options
Option [1] OFF = Partitioning Disabled (default)
Option [1] ON = Partitioning Enabled
By enabling partitioning, the alarm system is divided into two distinct systems, identified as Partition 1 and Partition
2. When partitioned, each zone and each User Code must be assigned to either Partition 1 or Partition 2 (see Zone
Partition Assignment on page 23 and User Code Options on page 17).
• Users can only arm partitions to which they have been assigned.
• Only zones assigned to Partition 1 will arm/disarm when Partition 1 is armed or disarmed.
• Only zones assigned to Partition 2 will arm/disarm when Partition 2 is armed or disarmed.
• For details on how to arm and disarm partitions, please refer to page 55 and page 56.
• The following features can be programmed separately for each partition: Entry/Exit Delay Timer, Auto-Arming
Options, Bell Cut-Off Timer, Switch to Stay Arming, PGM Events and Account Numbers.
If the system is not partitioned, all zones, User Codes, and features will be recognized as belonging
to partition 1. Zones that have been manually assigned to partition 2 will no longer function.
10.5 SYSTEM REAL-TIME CLOCK
Section [280]
Program the current time into section [280] using the 24-hour clock (i.e. 8:30PM = 20:30).
10.6 CLOCK ADJUST
Section [088]: 000 = Disabled, 001-255 (see below), Default = Disabled
001 to 127 = + 1 to +127 seconds
128 to 255 = -1 to -127 seconds
If you notice a gain or loss in control panel time, calculate the average gain or loss per day and program the
"opposite" amount in order to automatically correct the time setting every 24 hours.
Example: If a control panel loses 4 minutes per month, this represents an average loss of 8 seconds per day.
Therefore, programming 008 (plus 8 seconds) into section [088] would compensate for the 8-second loss.
