11.7 NETWORK COMMAND RESPONSES
& EXCEPTION MESSAGES
Whenever a network command or status recall is initiated with the keypad, the display
will show a variety of information or response messages listed in Section 11.7.1.
When a network command is received by a remote device, the device may take from
several seconds to several minutes to carry out the command (e.g. System Test). When
the command or test is completed the device may send an exception message to
indicate the result of the test. Exception messages are listed in Section 11.7.2.
11.7.1 NETWORK COMMAND RESPONSES
1. "Sending Command"
The command is now being sent across the network.
2. "Command Accepted"
The command arrived successfully at the remote device and is now being
processed.
3. "Command NOT Accepted"
The command arrived successfully at the remote device, but is not able to be
executed for one of the following reasons:
(i) Invalid zone number.
(ii) Invalid command type - e.g. alarm test on relay zone.
(iii) Command not supported.
(iv) Panel busy - e.g. system test already in progress.
4. "Command Timeout. No response"
The command did not arrive successfully at the remote device and was not
acknowledged by that device.
5. "Command NOT accepted. Try Again"
The command arrived successfully at the remote device but was not able to be
executed at the present time but may be able to be at some future time. This
could occur if the panel was in program mode.
6. "Data Retrieve Timeout. Retrying"
This indicates that the remote panel is not responding with some status
information when requested - such as for a zone status recall. The local panel
will automatically retry every few seconds (programmable time) to get the
information.
7. "Net Command Tx Disabled for SID"
The local panel has not been programmed to allow the sending of commands
to the specified SID. The local panel needs to be programmed with the list of
SID's that it is allowed to send commands to.
8. "Illegal or Invalid Command"
This could occur for the reasons listed in item 3 above, such as invalid zone
number.
