SYSTEM STABILIZATION MODE: When powering up a system that was previously armed when
power was removed, the system will enter a 2-minute stabilization period. This 2-minute interval is
used to allow motion detectors to stabilize. “PLEASE STAND BY” and “POWER UP DELAY” are
displayed on the OMNI-LCD and XK-7LC keypads. “PL” is displayed on the OMNI-KP keypad, and
the Armed LEDs on all keypads are lit. All LEDs on the XK108 keypad are lit.
Terminal Connections
1 & 2 — TRANSFORMER: Connect the 16.5VAC 25VA transformer, utilizing 18AWG (1mm dia.) or
larger wire at a distance not to exceed 15 feet (4.5m) from the panel, to an unswitched source of
AC mains power (120 or 220VAC).
The system can supply up to 1.8 amps of total current.
Do not use any other rating transformer, as this may result in improper operation or damage to the
unit.
The “AC/LOW BAT” keypad LED remains ON while AC power is present. If an AC loss occurs, the
“AC/LOW BAT” LED turns off immediately. If AC power remains OFF for the period programmed
in Programming Submode 1, Question 15, Location 3, the system pulses the keypad buzzer and
transmits a power-loss message to the central station, if programmed to do so. THE KEYPAD
BUZZER CAN BE SILENCED by entry of any valid user code. When AC restores, the “AC/LOW
BAT” LED lights immediately, and a Restore code is reported, if programmed.
3(+) & 4(–) — BELL OUTPUT: The total output power available for sounding devices is 1 amp (650mA
for UL installations) at 11.5 - 13.1VDC. These terminals will deliver CONSTANT output on
BURGLARY, AUDIBLE PANIC, and BELL TEST. On a FIRE condition, a PULSED or TEMPORAL
output can be generated. There are separate bell cutoff times programmable for burglary and fire
conditions within the programming sequence. For UL Household Fire Warning System
installations, the speaker must be mounted indoors for best audibility. Also, for UL installations,
use only one bell.
NOTE: Before connecting sounding devices, please consult their specifications for proper current
draw. Otherwise, the bell fuse (F1) may be blown.
NFPA 72 REQUIREMENT: All the BELL SUPERVISION (Bell) - To meet the NFPA 72 requirement,
interconnecting pathways (cable, program Question 09, Location 3, in Programming Submode 1
wire, etc.) between the alarm for bell supervision. The bell is then supervised for an open
system initiating device (control circuit (not a short circuit) across the bell output terminals; the
panel) and the signaling device keypad will indicate that a bell supervision condition has

SIREN SUPERVISION (Self-Contained Siren/Speaker) - (Not for use in UL installations.) To meet

the NFPA 72 requirement, program Question 09, Location 3, in Programming Submode 1 for bell
supervision. The siren is then supervised for an open circuit (not a short circuit) across the bell
output terminals; the keypad will indicate that a supervision condition has occurred and bell
supervision is reported to the CS, if enabled (Programming Submode 2, Question 25, Locations 1
and 2). If the siren is already sounding, the supervision will not take effect until after bell cutoff
time.
NOTE: Use FBII models ZR-815C, ZR-815EC, or ZR-830EC. See the following diagram:

6 (B+) & 5 (–) — SMOKE DETECTOR POWER: This system will accept 9.5–12VDC 4-wire smoke
detectors only. Approximately 50mA of current is available at these terminals for powering all
detectors and/or an EOL relay (i.e., FBII Model 620). For UL installations, see wiring diagram for
hookup.
These terminals adhere to the fire verification and reset logic, which is explained in the System
Programming section of this manual. The smoke detector power may be manually reset by clearing
the alarm memory and then entering a valid user code.
6 (B+) & 4 (–) — REGULATED POWER (11.5 –13.1VDC): The total regulated output power for
motion detectors and other external devices is 500mA at 11.8 - 12.5V for residential applications, or
12.0 - 12.5V for commercial applications, with less than 100 mVPP ripple. The total regulated
output capacity of the control panel includes the power available from these terminals (6 and 4) as
well as the power used by the keypads (20 [+] and 17 [–]) and smoke detectors (5 [–] and 6 [+]).
Therefore, to determine the total power available from these terminals, subtract the power
consumed by the keypads and smoke detectors. NOTE: For UL installations, total current cannot
exceed 180mA including the keypads connected to terminals 17 through 20.

15 (+) & 14 (–) Zone 6 [Default = INSTANT] (OMNI-600/600EU ONLY)
Normally-closed devices may be wired in series; normally-open devices may be wired in parallel. A
2.2k-ohm end-of-line resistor can be installed on all zones. (Refer to the wiring diagram.) The
standard loop response time is 280mS on all zones. The factory default values for each zone are
listed in the table above; however, any zone can be programmed for the following types: delay,
perimeter, interior, fire, 24-hr. alarm, or 24-hr. trouble. Further explanation of the zone types can
be found in the System Programming section of this manual. See the “Hardwire Zones” paragraph
in Section 4: System Configurations for information on zone doubling (to increase the number of
available hardwire zones) and the use of double-balanced zones.
NOTE: Loop response is defined as the minimum time required for a fault to trip a zone.
16 (+) & 17 (-) — AUXILIARY INPUT: This terminal is a normally-open terminal that may be wired to
a panic switch or “arm-only” keyswitch. When using a panic switch or arm-only keyswitch, connect
one side of the switch (+) to terminal 16 and the other side of the switch (–) to terminal 17. When
the switch is activated, the system will respond in the same manner as if you had depressed keypad
auxiliary keys 1 and 3 (programmed in Programming Submode 1, Question 18, L1 and L2). For
additional information on auxiliary keys, see “Keypads” in Section 5: System Operation.
17 (BLK), 18 (YEL), 19 (GREEN) & 20 (RED) — KEYPADS: Up to 12 keypads may be wired to these
terminals. The connections are as follows: 17 (BLACK = negative), 18 (YELLOW = data in), 19
(GREEN = data out) and 20 (RED = positive power). Refer to the table in the “Auxiliary Device
Current Draw Worksheet” paragraph of this section to obtain keypad current draw information.
NOTE: In some installations, it may be necessary to use shielded wire to prevent radio frequency
interference.
21 — EARTH GROUND: Connect this grounding lug to a cold-water pipe utilizing 18AWG (1mm dia.)
wire at a distance of no greater than 15 feet (4.5m). Use a noncorrosive metal strap firmly secured
to the pipe to which the lead is electrically connected and secured. If the premises pipes terminate
in PVC, this terminal must be connected to a 6-foot (2m) grounding rod.
22 (BRN), 23 (GRAY), 24 (GREEN) & 25 (RED) — TELEPHONE LINE: Connect the RJ31X cord as
follows: 22 (BROWN = Home Tip), 23 (GRAY = Home Ring), 24 (GREEN = Telco Tip), 25 (RED =
Telco Ring). Insert the plug into a USOC RJ31X Jack (or a CA31A Jack for Canadian installations).
The FCC registration number is 5GBUSA–44003–AL–E, and the ringer equivalence is 0.1B. The
system should not be connected to party lines or coin-operated phones.
If this control panel will be used for uploading, downloading, or remote-command applications, the
telephone line connected to the control panel must not be shared with a fax machine or modem.
Furthermore, this device should not be connected to a phone line that has Call Waiting, unless the
Call Waiting Interrupt numbers are programmed into the panel dialing sequence.
2-4

Section 2. System Wiring and Hookup
BACKUP BATTERY: The RED (+) and BLACK (–) flying leads must be connected to a 12VDC 4–7AH
lead acid battery, to serve as backup power in the event of AC loss.
A battery test occurs approximately every minute. Low-battery condition occurs at nominal 11VDC.
The keypad AC/LOW BAT LED and buzzer will pulse slowly when a low-battery condition is
detected. The system reports this condition to the CS if programmed to do so. There is also an
option that prevents the system from arming if a low battery has been detected (see Question 11,
L2). Battery restoral will occur within 4 minutes, at the next battery test. The buzzer may be
silenced by entry of any valid user code.
NOTE: For UL installations, use two 4AH batteries connected in parallel.
TRIGGER/RELAY OUTPUTS: The control panel has four built-in programmable trigger outputs. In
addition, up to two XL4705 Relay Modules can be connected, providing 10 additional programmable
relay outputs. If the Relay Modules are used (enable modules in Programming Submode 1, Question
09, L2), then built-in triggers 3 and 4 are no longer used as trigger outputs, but serve as clock and
data inputs for the relay modules. See Programming Submode 1, Questions 23–29, for valid
trigger/relay types and programming.
NOTE: In order to connect devices to the triggers, use connector XL4612TC (trigger cable). Connect
to terminal P1 VBELL to obtain a POSITIVE reference point. Triggers 1, 2, 3, and 4 (only 1 and 2
when using XL4705) will go to a negative ground potential when active. For UL installations, the
trigger outputs shall be connected to devices rated to operate over the range from 10.1–14.0VDC at
50mA.

Wiring Information for Keypads & Other Devices

If single or multiple devices are connected on a single 4-wire or 2-wire run ("daisy chained") to the
control terminals, do the following:
Determine the current drawn by the unit(s) connected to the single-wire run, then refer to the Wiring
Run Table below to determine the maximum wire length that can be safely used for each wire size.
In some cases, the total current drawn may result in a value not shown in the table. For example, if you
plan to use #22 gauge (0.64mm) wire and the total current drawn is 400mA (a value between 300mA
and 500mA), the maximum wire length you should use is approximately 65 ft. or 20m (a length
between 50 and 80 ft or 15m and 24m). Other maximum wire lengths for values of current not shown in
the table can be calculated in a similar manner.
Maximum wire lengths for a device that is "home run" to the control can also be determined from the
table, based on the current draw of that device alone.

System Configuration
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Hardwire Zones
Hardwired Zones: Consist of 4 (OMNI-400 series) or 6 (OMNI-600 series) on-board hardwired zones.
System options allow for all hardwired zones to be configured as E.O.L., N.C., N.O., double-balanced, or
configured for zone doubling.
Standard Mode: Each zone may be programmed as EOL 2.2k, normally closed or normally open. Zone
4 (OMNI-400 series) or zone 6 (OMNI-600 series) can be set as a fast zone (for normally closed loops
only). Refer to the connection diagram for wiring connections.
Double-Balanced Zones: In this configuration, tampers may be detected for both shorted and opened
loops. Tamper conditions will cause an alarm if armed and a fault if disarmed, with visible tamper
indication on the keypad. Up to nine 2.2k resistors are wired in series across normal shorted detectors,
with one 2.2k end-of-line resistor. Any device that opens adds 2.2k to the loop causing an alarm. If the
loop resistance exceeds 22k, the loop is considered tampered. If the system is set for double-balanced,
this will override any individual zone settings.
Zone Doubling: Up to 8 (OMNI-400 series) or 12 (OMNI-600 series) zones may be used as hardwired
when this zone option is selected. The zones are consecutive on each physical loop. The low zone uses a
3.3k resistor and the next zone uses a 7.5k resistor. The loop is wired with normally shorted devices in
parallel. For example, if zone doubling is programmed to begin on Zone 1, then Loop 1 uses the 3.3k
resistor for Zone 1 and the 7.5k resistor for zone 2; Loop 2 contains zones 3 and 4, etc. In Zone
programming (Programming Submode 2, Question 32, L1 and L2), the value of 00 disables zone
doubling; otherwise, program the first loop that zone doubling is to begin. For example, programming a
“5” in the zone doubling question means that loop 5 will contain zones 5 and 6, and loop 6 will contain
zones 7 and 8.
Cross Zoning: Two groups of 2-zone crosses can be programmed. Two cross-zone timers are
programmable (Question 35, L3 [timer 1] and L4 [timer 2] in Programming Submode 2: Zone
Programming) in 15-second increments (15 sec. to 4 min.) Cross-zone processing only occurs when
controlled zones are armed or on 24-hour zones.
Cross zoning functions in either of 2 ways:
• If the group contains 2 different zones, when the first zone in the group is tripped, the cross-zone
timer loads and starts counting. An alarm will occur if:
The other zone in the same group trips before the timer reaches 0. This causes an alarm on the
second zone to trip. The first zone to trip will only go into alarm if it is still violated at the time
that the second zone causes an alarm.
or
The timer expires and the zone that started the timer is still violated and has not restored
during the entire timing cycle.
4-1

• The zone is crossed to itself (e.g., Programming Submode 2, Question 33 is programmed as 0101 –
Zone 1 crossed to itself) and the zone has tripped 3 times within the timing period (Pulse counter).
Relay/Trigger Outputs
The system allows up to 12 programmable outputs. It provides 4 built-in triggers with the option of
adding up to two XL4705 Relay Modules (which provide up to 10 relay outputs). If the relay modules
are used, they must be enabled during programming (Submode 1, Question 09, Location 2). When using
relay modules, built-in triggers 3 and 4 no longer function as triggers, but serve as clock and data
inputs for the modules. The remaining 2 built-in triggers provide a total of up to 12 programmable
outputs. See Programming Questions 23–29 in Submode 1 for individual trigger programming options.
Each XL4705 Relay Module provides five form C relays. Each module must be assigned a unique
module address (0 or 1) using its DIP switches. The module addresses allow the system to identify the
specific relay numbers being used according to the following table:
Module Module DIP Relay Program

Number Address Numbers Question
1 0 1–5 Q23–25
2 1 6–10 Q25–27
Built-in triggers 1–4 are programmed in Questions 28 and 29.

NOTE: If the system uses relay modules, only triggers 1 and 2 are available.

Paging Feature
Summary: A 16-digit phone number to dial for paging, which the end user or installer can reprogram,
is entered in Submode 1, Question 04. The number of times the pager number is dialed is installer-
programmable from 1–3 times. The installer also selects which events may cause a page. Four
conditions may be selected: (1) zone alarms, (2) zone troubles, (3) openings, and (4) closings.
Additionally, paging may be turned on or off for opening and closing.
NOTE: Only one event is paged-based on the priority described next.
Paging Alarms, Troubles, Open, and Close:

Alarms take priority over troubles, troubles take priority over opens, and opens take priority over
closes.
For pager opening or closing to occur, the following conditions must exist:
• The system must not have an alarm or trouble condition.
• The system must have the open or close enabled (Submode 1, Question 14, L4).
4-3

• The system must have the open/close enable set by using the #8 command (see below).
• The phone number must be enabled (Submode 1, Question 04).
• The page attempts option must be set (Submode 1, Question 10, L3).
User Enables and Options:

#8 – Allows the end user to turn on or off open and close pages. This will not affect alarm and trouble
pages if enabled. Also, the installer must have enabled opens and/or closes to page.
LCD – Displays if open/close pages are on/off. Press [#] to toggle, press [✱] to exit.
LED/Fixed Word – Toggles if open/closes will send a page.
#58 [code]† – End user function to change the pager number. This mode times out in 10 seconds
without saving the phone number if no key is pressed, or exits without saving if the [✱] key is pressed.
† Entry of the user code is optional.
Key functions:
[✱] Key – Exits mode without saving.
[#] Key – Saves new phone number and blanks digits from last digit entered to end
[Code] key – Enters a $C# in the string, which gives an additional 2-second pause.
LCD – Displays 16-digit phone number. Enter new phone number and press [#] to save, or press [✱] to
exit.
For LCD pads, press another key after saving the number, and the #8 user pages enable is displayed.
LED/Fixed Word – “ACK” sound heard. Enter the phone number using digits 0–9 and press [#] to
save, or press [✱] to exit.
Installer Pager Options:

Submode 1, Question 14, L4: Contains the pager options and the open/close enable that may be
disabled by the #8 command.
Paging/Beeps Sequence: The paging will not begin until the dialer is off and dialer delay is not
active. The system checks if any event needs to be dialed. The page/beeps are dialed 1, 2, or 3 times. If
pager attempts are 0, paging is disabled. The pager format is as follows:
Account Event Zone/User Terminator
1234 [0, 1, or 9] [000-255] [#]
where: Opening = 0
Closing = 1
Alarm or Trouble = 9
This data is transmitted 2 times with a 5-second pause between rounds.

Power Up/System Reset

SYSTEM STABILIZATION MODE: Upon power-up of the system, if the system was previously armed, all
the lights on the LED keypad(s) will turn ON momentarily or, in the case of an LCD display installation,
the keypad(s) will display “PLEASE STAND BY POWER UP DELAY.”
HOWEVER, THE ZONES WILL NOT RESPOND TO ALARM CONDITIONS FOR APPROXIMATELY
2 MINUTES. The 2-minute interval is used to allow motion detectors (interior zones) to stabilize in
order to prevent false alarms. This 2-minute delay can be disabled by shorting the yellow and black
keypad wires (reduces the power-up reset time to approximately 5 seconds). Upon system power-up, if
the system was previously disarmed, the power-up reset time will be approximately 5 seconds. If total
system power is lost, upon power restoral the system will return to its previously armed state.

KEYPAD AUXILIARY KEYS
Pressing the auxiliary keys (XK-108: two keys labeled P, A, or F at the same time; OMNI-LCD/XK-
7LC/OMNI-KP: 1/3, 7/9, ✱/#) initiates a CS transmission, if programmed, of programmed functions
(e.g., PANIC, AUXILIARY, or FIRE); causes annunciation of the keypad sounder; and turns on the bell
output. The programmed functions are defined in Programming Submode 1, Questions 18 and 19.
See “Keypad Emergency Conditions” in this section for alternate auxiliary keys.
Keypad Sounder
The sounder (or loudspeaker) housed inside the keypad emits (annunciates) sounds according to the
condition of the security system.
5-3

Enabling keypad sounder:

th
XK-7LC: The 4 DIP switch in the keypad controls the sounder on/off.
OMNI-KP/OMNI-LCD: Press and hold the [Code] and [Bypass] keys to toggle the sounder on/off.
The keypad sounder annunciates differently to indicate the following conditions:
Chirp Keypad sounds a short chirp to confirm each keystroke.
Steady The keypad makes a steady sound during entry time and/or during burglary
alarm.
Chime Steady 1-second tone (SYSTEM DISARMED ONLY). Upon successful entry
Acknowledge of certain commands, the system will sound for approximately half a second.
Pulsing A pulsing sound (approximately half a second ON, then OFF) indicates a
trouble condition such as AC loss, low battery, or fire trouble.
Negative Upon entry of an illegal command, the keypad sounds four short beeps. For
Acknowledgment example, if during an attempt to define a new user the master user is not
entered, four short beeps indicate that the command was unsuccessful.
Sounder Several short beeps to indicate successful communication to the central
Ringback station. This occurs for all signals, excluding ambush and silent zones.
Fast Pulsing Sound generated during entry time period AFTER an alarm condition has
Sounder occurred and the system reached bell cutoff. A pulsing sounder follows the
bell output on fire conditions. Trouble conditions also generate a pulsing
sounder, and may be silenced through entry of a valid user code.
The keypad is NOT operational if none of the LED's are lit and the keypad does not beep when
! keys are pressed. This is an indication that service is required. Consult the trouble shooting
section of this manual.
Keypad Addressing
This address will identify the keypad number to the control panel. A maximum of 12 keypads (OMNI-
KP, OMNI-LCD, or XK-7LC) can be identified, but the total of 12 cannot be comprised of more than 8
LCD keypads or 8 fixed-word keypads.
The XK-108 keypad may also be used on the system; however, when the XK-108 is used,
keypad addressing does not apply. Additionally, you cannot use any other type of keypad if you
are using XK-108’s on the system.
Set the OMNI-KP and OMNI-LCD keypad addresses by doing the following (refer to the instructions
provided with the keypads for additional information on setting the keypad addresses):
1. Within 30 seconds of applying power to the unit, press the [CODE] and [STAY] keys at the same
time and hold them for several seconds.
2. When the display shows a single digit pulsing, enter the address 1–8 for fixed-word and for LCD

Arming the System

The system can be armed only if all burglary zones are in ready state (not faulted):
OMNI-LCD/XK-7LC OMNI-KP XK-108
Indicator LED Lit Ready Ready Ready
Display SYSTEM READY N/A N/A
TO ARM:
Enter any programmed four-digit user code.
NOTE: The factory default for user #1 is 1234.
The ARMED LED will light and the user may pass through interior zones (if necessary) and exit
through an exit/entry zone for the time period programmed as the exit delay.
Keypads provide the following indications:
Indicator LED Lit Armed Armed Armed
Display ON: AWAY; EXIT NOW AWAY N/A
The system can be armed without the backup battery being connected; however, the AC/LB or BAT
light will flash depending on the keypad used.
Arm While Faulted: If this feature is programmed (Submode 1, Question 11, Location 2), the user can
arm the system while a delay or interior zone is still faulted.
AUTO STAY ARMING

TO ARM: Enter any programmed four-digit user code.
If the user does not access an exit/entry zone during the exit time and auto stay zones are programmed,
the panel arms Auto Stay and bypasses any zones programmed to do so.

NOTE: The STAY/INSTANT mode can be enabled through programming Question 11, Location 1.
DISARMING
TO DISARM: Enter any valid four-digit user code and the ARM LED will extinguish.
If an alarm condition exists or occurred while the system was armed, the respective zone LED will
blink rapidly. This condition is classified as Alarm Memory, and can be cleared by entering a valid user
code again. Note that a user with level 4 authority (limited user) can disarm the system only if it was
armed by a level 4 user.
RESET
Reset is accomplished through the entry of any valid user code. This can be used to reset the smoke
detectors attached to the system, silence any bells or sounders, or clear the keypad display.
BYPASS BY ZONE
Bypassing is enabled to temporarily exclude zones or points that are faulty or otherwise not ready for
operation, from activating the security system.
TO BYPASS by ZONE: Press the [BYPASS] key followed by any valid 4- or 6-digit user code, followed
by the zone number (01–08 for OMNI-400’s or 01–12 for OMNI-600’s) representing the zone to be
bypassed.
EXAMPLE: To bypass zone 6 (assume user code of 1234), press [BYPASS] + [1] + [2] + [3] + [4] + [0] +
[6].
QUICK BYPASS BY ZONE
Quick Bypassing is a programmable option (Question 11, Location 4), and allows the user to bypass
zones and points without using a user code.
5-6

TO QUICK BYPASS by ZONE: Press the [BYPASS] key followed by the zone number (01–08 for
OMNI-400’s or 01–12 for OMNI-600’s) representing the zone to be bypassed.
EXAMPLE: To bypass zone 6, press [BYPASS] + [0] + [6].
In addition, note the following rules for bypass:
• FIRE zones cannot be bypassed.
• 24-hour and day zones can be bypassed; however, they CANNOT be unbypassed if they are violated.
• Zones can be bypassed only while the system is disarmed, at which time the bypassed zone is
displayed.
Bypass signals will be transmitted to the central station (CS) UPON ARMING if a bypass code has
been programmed in Submode 2, Question 26, Location 1.
! ZONES THAT ARE BYPASSED ARE NOT PROTECTED WHEN THE SYSTEM IS ARMED.
BYPASS LIMIT 3
The system can be programmed to allow a maximum of 3 zones to be manually bypassed. You can also
program the system to display bypasses while armed. See Submode 1, Question 13, Location 1.
AUTO UNBYPASS
All burglary zones that are bypassed are automatically unbypassed upon system disarm. 24-hour and
day zones that have been bypassed will be unbypassed only if they are not violated.
MANUAL UNBYPASS
UNBYPASS removes an existing bypass from a currently bypassed zone. The procedure is the same as
for bypass.
KEY TAMPER: Upon entry of 21 keystrokes in succession without entry of a valid command, the
system will initiate a key tamper. If it is programmed (Submode 1, Question 10, Location 2), the
tamper condition initiates a keypad lockout, in which keypad commands will not be accepted for
approximately 20 minutes. The condition is annunciated by a pulsing sound from the keypad. In
addition, a code can be programmed for transmission to the central station (see Submode 2,
Question 23, L1, L2).
User Code Programming

User codes can be entered or modified directly through the keypad. The system supports up to 15 user
codes (4 or 6 digits each) with the following applications:
USER DEFAULT
NUMBER APPLICATION CODE
01 Master User (see note 2) 1234
02–09 Normal Users NULL
10–14 Door Strike (see note 3) NULL
15 Ambush (see note 4) NULL
NOTES:
1. Only the master users (authority levels 1 and 2) can program or modify other users.
5-7

2. User number 1 programs all user codes (01–15); cannot be deleted.

3. User numbers 10–14 will be the system "door strike" code if any trigger is defined as a door strike
trigger. If any of the output triggers are defined as door strike, then entry of this user code will
activate that trigger for a period that is defined in Submode 1, Question 30, Locations 3 and 4. In
addition, there is an option to allow all user codes to act as a door strike code. If this option is
selected (Submode 1, Question 10, L1), then all users can activate the door strike through the [#] +
[5] + [7] command (See “Quick Command Modes”). If a door strike (or access) trigger is not defined,
then this user code can be utilized as a normal user code.
4. User number 15 (Duress; enabled in Submode 1, Question 10, L1) will activate a system-wide
Duress code if there is a Duress CS report code programmed into Submode 2, Question 19, L1, L2. If
no CS code is defined in Question 19, then this user number will be a normal user code. In this
mode, an entry of the user number code will ARM or DISARM the system and transmit the ambush
code to the central station. Furthermore, if the CS transmission format contains the user number,
the user number will be transmitted. If a Duress transmission code has been programmed and a
user does not exist, it will not be possible to activate the Duress feature.
AUTHORITY LEVELS
Each user is assigned one of 4 authority levels, which determines the system functions that user can
perform.
Level Functions Allowed
1 Primary Master can set time, assign other user codes, all system functions
2 Secondary Master, same as primary Master except cannot change the primary Master’s code
3 User can arm and disarm only
4 Limited user, same as level 3, except can disarm the system only if it was armed by another
user with level 4 authority (cannot disarm if armed by user of higher authority level).
4/6-DIGIT USER CODES
The system supports either 4- or 6-digit user codes. A bit option in Submode 1, Question 09, Location 3
selects if the user codes are to be 4 or 6 digits in length for the entire system. The default user code for
the master is 1234 with an authority level of 1. The system is defaulted to 4-digit user/installer code. If
the bit is set in installer mode, each currently programmed code will change to six digits by adding a
“00" before the known 4-digit code.
For example, if 4-digit codes are being changed to 6 digits and a user code was 1-2-3-4, it will become 0-
0-1-2-3-4. Conversely, if the user code length was 6, and it is changed back to 4 digits, the code 1-2-3-4-
5-6 will become 3-4-5-6.
Once “6-digit user codes” is selected, new codes entered can be any combination of 6 digits.
NOTE: Selecting “6-digit user codes” also affects the installer code by adding “00” to the code (default
installer code 2468 becomes 002468). Use Question 00 to enter a new installer code.
TO ADD OR CHANGE USERS:

Press [CODE] + MASTER USER CODE + USER NO. + NEW USER CODE + AUTHORITY LEVEL
where:
[CODE] [CODE] button on keypad.
MASTER USER 4- or 6-digit* Master User code (user with authority level 1 or 2)
5-8

USER NO. Desired user number to be programmed (01–15).

NEW USER CODE 4- or 6-digit* user code for the new user. Valid digits are 0–9.
AUTHORITY LEVEL The desired authority level for the new user.
*Depending on the whether the system is set for 4- or 6-digit security codes
Example: Define user number 03 with a code of 7493 and authority level 3. (Assume Master code is
1234) = CODE 1234 03 7493 3
An acknowledgment (steady tone) verifies a successful user code programming. A negative
acknowledgment (4 short tones) indicates unsuccessful programming. If additional user programming
is necessary, repeat the procedure listed above. If a dialing format is programmed that transmits
opening/closing by user ID, each user will report their user number.

QUICK ARMING: # 1
If programmed, Quick Arming will be permitted. Quick Arming allows arming the system without
entry of a user code. When you are using the ADEMCO Point ID reporting format, a PID code of 408
(closing, quick arm) with a user number of 128 is sent to the central station when the system is armed.
NOTE: The system must be in Ready mode. A user code is required to disarm the system. Options
include:
[#] + [1] Quick Arm the System in the AWAY mode
NOTE: If the user does not access an exit/entry zone during the exit
time and auto stay zones are programmed, the panel arms Auto Stay
and bypasses any zones programmed to do so.
[STAY] + [#] + [1] Quick Arm the System in the STAY mode
[INSTANT] + [#] + [1] Quick Arm the System in the INSTANT mode
[STAY] + [INSTANT] + [#] + [1] Quick Arm the System in the STAY/INSTANT mode
QUICK FORCED ARMING: # 2

If programmed, then Quick Forced Arming will be permitted. Quick Forced Arming allows arming the
system without entry of a user code, and bypasses any bypassable zones that are not ready. When you
are using the ADEMCO Point ID reporting format, a PID code of 408 (closing, quick arm) with a user
number of 127 is sent to the central station when the system is armed.
NOTE: Bypassed zones include all of the individual points assigned to the zone. A user code is required
to disarm.
SET TIME: # 3
Pressing [#] [3] sets the time of the system clock. If a user code is required to set the time, then enter:
[#] + [3] + USER + HOUR + MINUTE + MONTH + DAY + YEAR
+ CRYSTAL ADJUST (optional) + ADJUST VALUE (optional)
where: USER Valid 4- or 6-digit user code
HOUR Two-digit hour of day in 24 hour format; e.g., 7AM = 07; 3PM = 15
MINUTE Two-digit minutes of hour; e.g., 9 min = 09; 29 min. = 29
MONTH Two-digit month of year (01–12); e.g., Feb = 02; Oct = 10
DAY Two-digit day of month (01–31)
YEAR Two-digit year 00–99; e.g., 2010 = 10; 2000 = 00
CRYSTAL ADJUST One-digit entry that is requested if using the Crystal RTC (enabled in
Submode 1, Question 10, Location 2). If the clock is keeping the correct
time, enter 1 followed by 00 for the adjust value. If the clock is not
keeping the correct time, enter 0 (Adjust up - Clock slow) or 1 (Adjust
down - Clock fast). For example, if the clock is showing 5:02 and the
actual time is 5:00, enter 1.
ADJUST VALUE The number of seconds to be added to or subtracted from the RTC on a
daily basis. Note that the system only displays this prompt if the Crystal
RTC has been enabled (Submode 1, Question 10, Location 2). Valid
5-11

entries are 00 for no change, 1–29 for seconds to add (per day), or 1–29
for seconds to subtract (per day). To calculate the amount of change:
1. Determine how far off the clock is (in seconds) from the correct time.
For example, under Crystal Adjust above, the example was that the
clock was showing 5:02 and the actual time was 5:00. Therefore, the
clock is 2 minutes or 120 seconds (2 X 60 = 120) fast.
2. Determine the number of days since the last time the clock was set.
For example, assume that it is now May 1 and the clock was last set on
April 1. Therefore, it has been 30 days since the last time the clock was
set.
3. Divide the number of seconds that the clock is off by the number of
days since the last time the clock was set. For example, in the steps
above we found that the clock was off by 120 seconds and the number of
days since it was last set was 30. Therefore, 120 divided by 30 is 4
seconds as the Adjust Value.
4. Enter the result of step 3 as the adjust value. If the value entered is
valid, an acknowledgement is sounded. If the value entered is not
within the valid range, an error is sounded.
If a user code is not required to set the time, then enter:
[#] + [3] + HOUR + MINUTE + MONTH + DAY + YEAR
+ CRYSTAL ADJUST (optional) + ADJUSTMENT VALUE (optional)
In either case, the LCD keypads will display a prompt for each entry. On LED keypads, the sounder
will beep after each entry. The system will exit this mode either automatically (no keys are pressed)
after the last entry (YEAR), or when the star [✱] key is pressed.
NOTE: The system time clock is used for the system test transmission as well as for the auto-arming
function and event logging.
DISPLAY ZONE DIRECTORY (LCD KEYPAD ONLY): # 4
Pressing [#] [4] will scroll through the zone number and zone descriptors DIRECTORY ZN #
on the LCD keypad. The keypad will display: ZONE # DESCRIPTOR
The system will exit this mode either automatically (no keys pressed), or when the star [✱] key is
pressed.
DISPLAY DIRECTORY OF QUICK COMMANDS (LCD KEYPADS ONLY): # 50
Pressing [#] [5] [0] displays the Quick Command Directory on the LCD keypads.
Depress the [#] key to advance through the quick command listing. The system exits this mode when
the star [✱] key is pressed.
DISPLAY TIME (LCD KEYPADS ONLY): # 51
Pressing [#] [5] [1] displays the current system time on the LCD keypads.
NOTE: The time is set by using [#] [3]. The keypad displays: CURRENT TIME:
12:00AM
The system exits this mode either automatically (no keys pressed), or when the star [✱] key is pressed.
5-12

DISPLAY AUTO-ARM TIME (LCD KEYPADS ONLY): # 52

If auto-arming is programmed, pressing [#] [5] [2] displays the current auto-arm time for the current
area on the LCD keypads.
NOTE: Auto-arming is enabled in programming Submode 1, Question 20, AUTO ARM TIME:
L1 and the auto-arm time is set by using [#] [5] [4]. The keypad displays: 12:00AM
The system exits this mode either automatically (no keys pressed), or when the star [✱] key is pressed.
SET AUTO-ARM TIME: # 54

If auto-arming is enabled in programming Submode 1, Question 20, pressing [#] [5] [4] will set the
auto-arm time. If a user code is required to set the time, then enter:
[#] + [5] + [4] + USER + HOUR + MINUTE
where: USER Valid 4- or 6-digit user code
HOUR Two-digit hour of day in 24 hour format; e.g., 7AM = 07; 3PM = 15
MINUTE Two-digit minutes of hour; e.g., 9 min = 09; 29 min. = 29
If a user code is not required to set the time, then enter:
[#] + [5] + [4] + HOUR + MINUTE
In either case, the LCD keypads will display a prompt for each entry. On LED keypads, the sounder
will beep after each entry. The auto-arm time represents the time of day that the panel will
automatically arm if it is not already armed. In addition, it can be programmed to arm in the STAY or
INSTANT mode and an audible warning (4 quick beeps) can be generated at the keypad starting 3
minutes prior to arming, if programmed in Submode 1, Question 20, L1. This signal (which reoccurs
once every minute) warns the occupants that the system will auto-arm in 3 minutes. If a user code is
entered within this warning period and the system is disarmed, the auto-arm time for that day will be
canceled. The system will generate an audible acknowledgment (1-second keypad sounder) and the
lights on the LED display will scroll to show that the auto-arm time was suspended. LCD-based
keypads will display “AUTO-ARM CANCELED.”
The system will exit this mode either automatically (no keys pressed) after the last entry (MINUTE), or
when the star [✱] key is pressed.
NOTE: Auto-arming will arm the system and bypass any zones that are not ready. Therefore, we
recommend that you report bypasses to the CS if auto-arming is programmed. Auto-arming is not
suitable for UL applications.
UL Auto arming is not suitable for UL applications.
LOSS-OF-TIME WARNING: If auto-arming has been enabled and no time is defined, a warning will
appear on the keypads if enabled in Submode 1, Question 13, Location 3. This can occur if time (#3
command) has not been entered or if the system has totally lost power (AC and DC) and the time is
probably incorrect. The loss-of-time warning consists of the LEDs on the keypads scrolling in
sequence or a text message on LCD keypads. This will occur every 30 seconds until the time is set.

5-14

USER ON-LINE DOWNLOAD: # 9

If programmed (Question 10, L1), pressing [#] + [9] on the keypad enables the user to initiate a remote
communications session with the CS downloading computer at the control station location. On-line
downloading allows the user to call the office and discuss the action required, and allows the CS
operator to complete the request while on-line with no additional telephone call needed. On-line
connection is to be made as follows:
1. User dials the CS downloading modem telephone line from the premises telephone. Connection is
made with a person at the CS downloading computer and the account to be downloaded is verbally
identified. The CS computer is placed into a mode in which it attempts to establish a connection
with the site.
2. Next, the user is instructed to enter #9 on the keypad, which causes the control panel to disconnect
the (premises) customer side of the phone line, react as if it had received a request for a remote
communications session, and look for the standard panel-to-CS protocol.
3. Once the standard connection is made, the remote communications session can take place (upload,
download, remote commands).

Programming Methods
The system can be programmed using either of two methods:
• Directly, using any supported keypad.
NOTES:
1. If there are no keypads connected to the system, keypad address 8 is automatically enabled. This
allows an OMNI-LCD or XK-7LC to be temporarily connected for programming the system.
2. If XK-108 keypads are the only keypads used in the system, but you want to program the system
using an LCD keypad, you must power down the system, connect the LCD keypad, and then
power up the system. When you press the Stay button to exit installer programming, immediately
disconnect the LCD keypad, and the XK-108 keypads will re-initialize.
• Remotely, using the PC DOWNLOADING software (Compass Downloader).
System Default
The system is shipped from the factory with specific default values suitable for a typical installation. If
the default values are suitable for your installation, then programming can be simplified. The default
values are listed with each programming question.
To reset the system to the default values, do one of the following:
A. Press the [1] and [3] keys at the same time while in the Installer Mode 1 programming mode.
B. Use Installer Mode 5 (press [CODE] + [✱] + installer code + [5] +[5]).
System Default
NOTE: After the entry of the first 5: LCD keypads display –
<5> Yes <✱> No
Fixed-Word keypads display – d5
C. Remove power (AC and DC), short JP1 and JP2, then re-apply power (with JP1 and JP2 still
shorted). Wait at least 8 seconds, and then remove the short with power still applied.
When the system is defaulted, the system will revert to factory-programmed values and go through the
reset and warm-up time sequence.
A programming option can be selected through the Compass Downloader Software known as
Default Lockout. If you select it, a system default reset will change all of the programmable
options with the exception of the CSID (a code used by the software to identify the panel during
remote connections) and the installer code. This prevents hostile account takeovers.
Keypad Programming
The programming instructions and displays within this section of the manual apply to the use of an
LCD keypad. If an LCD keypad is not available, programming may also be performed using an XK-108
LED or an OMNI-KP fixed-word keypad. When you are using an LED or fixed-word keypad, the
6-1

displays are different and some programming procedures are different. Refer to the following “If an
LED Keypad Is Used for Programming” and “If a Fixed-Word Keypad is Used for Programming”
paragraphs for information about reading the keypad display and programming differences.
If an LED Keypad Is Used for Programming
An LED keypad may be used to accomplish system programming by summing the value of the keypad
LEDs as described in the following paragraphs. If an LED keypad is used, the instructions are the
same as for an LCD keypad except where noted; however, you must sum the LED display to derive the
programmed digits.
WHAT YOU SEE ON THE LED KEYPAD
Program Mode = READY LED Pulsing
As soon as you enter the Installer Keypad Programming mode, the READY LED slowly pulses, and
continues to pulse until you leave this mode. The remaining LEDs display the submode number,
question number, and location contents (data) as indicated below:

Submode Numbers = ARM and AC/LB LEDs

The ARM and AC/LB LEDs display the current submode number. In the figure above, the submode
number is the total you get when you add the values of all LEDs that are lit.
Examples:
ARM lit, AC/LB off = submode 1
ARM off, AC/LB lit = submode 2
NOTE: Submode 4 cannot be displayed on an LED keypad. Submode 4 contains descriptive information
for display on an LCD keypad. Therefore, programming in submode 4 would be meaningless on an LED
keypad.
6-2

Section 6. System Programming
Question Numbers = Zone LEDs

Zone LEDs 1 through 6 display the current question number (not the specific location within each
question). In the above figure, the question number is the total you get when you add the values of all
LEDs that are lit.
Examples:
Zone 1 lit, Zones 2-6 off = question 01
Zone 1 lit, Zone 2 lit, Zones 3-6 off = question 03
Zone 2 lit, Zone 3 lit, Zone 4 lit, Zones 1, 5, and 6 off = question 14
Location Contents = System Status LEDs

The remaining status LEDs (STAY, INST, TX LB, and RF SPRV) display data that resides in each
location within the current question. As shown in the figure above, the value located next to each LED
that is lit must be added to calculate the total data for each location.
Examples:
Stay lit, Inst, TX LB and RF Sprv off = 1
Stay and Inst lit, TX LB and RF Sprv off = 3
Inst and RF Sprv lit, Stay and TX LB off = A
The following chart shows binary values that you will see on these LEDs for the letters A-F that may be
entered in some locations of the program sheet.
Digit Binary Value Description
A 10 Inst and RF Sprv lit
B 11 Stay, Inst, and RF Sprv lit
C 12 TX LB and RF Sprv lit
D 13 Stay, TX LB, and RF Sprv lit
E 14 Inst, TX LB, and RF Sprv lit
F 15 Stay, Inst, TX LB, and RF Sprv lit
If a Fixed-Word Keypad Is Used for Programming

You may use a fixed-word keypad to accomplish system programming by observing a combination of
fixed indicators and the 2 LCD characters on the display. If a fixed-word keypad is used, the
instructions are the same as for an LCD keypad except where noted; however, the displays that you see
are different.
WHAT YOU SEE ON THE FIXED-WORD KEYPAD
Program Mode = READY LED Pulsing

As soon as you enter the Installer Keypad Programming mode, the READY LED slowly pulses, and
continues to pulse until you leave this mode. The Question Number Indicator, Fixed Digits, LCD
Display, and Submode Indicators show the submode number, question number, and location contents
(data) as indicated below:
6-3

OMNI600-006-V0
Submode Indicators = STAY, INSTANT, and BYPASS indicators

The STAY, INSTANT, and BYPASS indicators provide the current submode number. The current
submode number is as follows:
STAY lit, INSTANT and BYPASS off = submode 1
STAY and INSTANT lit, BYPASS off = submode 2
NOTE: Submode 4 cannot be displayed on a fixed-word keypad. Submode 4 contains descriptive
information for display on an LCD keypad. Therefore, programming in submode 4 would be
meaningless on a fixed-word keypad.
Question Numbers = ALARM indicator and LCD display

While ALARM is lit, the LCD digits are displaying a question number. When a question number is
entered on the keypad, ALARM will light and the LCD digits will display the question number for 2
seconds before automatically changing to a display of the Location and Location Content. ALARM
extinguishes when the display switches to Location/Location Content.
Location and Location Contents = Fixed Digits and LCD display

The location number will normally be shown in the first-character position of the 2-character LCD
display. However, when the question contains more than 9 locations, the fixed digits will be used with
the first LCD character to indicate locations 10 through 19 (fixed digit 1 and the LCD character) or 20
through 29 (fixed digit 2 and the LCD character). While the location number is being displayed, the
content of the location is displayed in the second-character position of the 2-character LCD display.
KEY ENTRIES
The below listing provides the function of certain key sequences when a fixed-word keypad is used to
program the system.

INSTALLER MODE 5 (SYSTEM DEFAULT)

This mode can initiate a system default. The system will then revert to factory-programmed values and
go through the reset sequence and the warm-up time sequence.
INSTALLER MODE 6 (CLEAR TAMPER FAULTS)

This mode, if enabled in Question 10, L2, clears all tamper displays for double balanced zones that have
restored, and is an Installer reset function.
INSTALLER MODE 8 (INSTALLER UNATTENDED DOWNLOAD)

For UL installations, Installer Unattended Download may NOT be used.
The control panel dials (up to 8 times) the telephone number of the CS Downloading Computer without
the need to have the operator present. The CS Downloading computer telephone number (Question 01)
and an unattended identification number (Question 02) in the Downloader Software will be
programmed into dedicated memory locations.
Unattended download requires the following sequence:
NOTE: Prior to entering this mode, the PC operator must know the unattended identification number
for each panel to be downloaded and modem phone number for the CS Downloading computer.
6-7

1. The PC operator must select UNATTENDED DOWNLOAD in the Downloader Software Main
Menu.
2. Enter unattended download mode: [CODE] + [✱] + Installer Code + [8].
3. The system will now enter keypad programming, Question 01. Enter the telephone number of the
central station downloading computer (each digit followed by the [#] key; e.g., [1] [#] [2] [#] [3] [#]
etc.) into this question (20 digits maximum). This phone number should be the same as the CS
callback number (Question 03 from keypad programming if the panel is programmed for callback).
4. Press the [INSTANT] key to proceed to Question 02. Next, enter the desired unattended
identification number (each digit followed by the [#] key). This will be used by the Compass software
in the CS downloading computer to determine the proper account information to download to this
subscriber. The account number must be 12 digits in length. It is the unattended identification
number (not the account number) that will be communicated to the Compass software in the CS
downloading computer. For account numbers fewer than 12 digits, you must enter leading 0's to
make the number 12 digits long.
Example: for account number 345, enter 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 0 # 3 # 4 # 5 #
5. Press the [STAY] key to exit programming mode. The control panel will now dial the telephone
number entered into the callback number. The downloading computer must be placed into the
Unattended Communications option from the main menu. Upon connection with the computer, the
system will obtain the customer account number programmed in step 3 and perform the desired
download operation.
NOTE: The CS downloading computer must be waiting in the Unattended Communications mode and
preprogrammed with the account information in order for the unattended download to be functional.
UL The unattended download mode CANNOT be used in UL installations.
INSTALLER MODE 9 (ON-LINE DOWNLOAD)

In this mode, the installer can initiate a remote communications session with the CS Downloading
computer at the control panel location. Typically, the CS initiates a remote communications session.
On-line Downloading allows the installer to call the office (from the same telephone line as the panel),
discuss the action required, and allow the CS operator to complete the request while on-line; no
additional telephone call is needed. Note that the office number that is dialed should be the phone line
that the downloading computer is attached to. On-line connection can be made as follows:
1. Installer completes installation and attaches a handset to telco terminals (tip & ring) or uses the
standard home telephone to dial the CS Downloading modem telephone line. Connection is made
with a person at the CS Downloading computer and the account to be downloaded is verbally
identified. The downloading computer operator then selects the On-line Remote Operations from the
device menu.
2. The installer enters the on-line download sequence: [CODE] + [✱] + Installer Code + [9] or uses the
end-user command of # 9, if enabled (Question 10, L1). This will cause the control panel to react as
if it received a request for a remote communications session, and to look for the standard panel-to-
CS protocol.
6-8

3. Once the standard connection is made, the necessary remote communications sessions can take
place (upload, download, remote commands).
4. The installer hangs up the telephone or removes the headset from the line to prevent interference
that may affect upload/download data. The downloader software will automatically terminate the
connection after remote communications end.

REPORTING ROUTE:
The system can report to 1 or 2 central station phone numbers. If you select split reporting, then
OPENING and CLOSING signals will be directed to the secondary phone number, while all other
signals will be transmitted to the primary phone number. If you select backup reporting, the panel will
alternate between the primary and secondary receivers (if the second phone number is programmed)
for a programmable number of attempts (Question 08, L3) to each phone number in the event the
signal has not been acknowledged. If you select dual reporting, then signals will be sent to both
primary and secondary phone numbers. If neither split nor backup reporting is necessary, then this
question may be left as factory-defaulted, and all conditions will be routed to the primary number only.
Enter the telephone number (including area code or dialing prefix, IF NECESSARY) of the secondary
central station receiver in Question 02, L1–L20.
Q 01 PRIMARY TELEPHONE NUMBER
Q 02 SECONDARY TELEPHONE NUMBER

reach the callback number location. The callback number is the optional location of the Downloading
Software where the control panel will call during a remote communications (upload/download etc.)
session. During remote communications, the programming device and the control panel will first
confirm the CS security code. If valid, communications can begin. If a callback number is defined, the
control panel will hang up and dial the callback number. For no callback capability, enter “A” in L1–
L20.
Q 04 PAGER TELEPHONE NUMBER
Enter the pager number for reports, up to 16 digits (including area code or dialing prefix, if necessary).

3 Delay 2 Same as Type 2 except uses the entry 2 time.
4 Interior Upon arming, this zone begins system exit delay and will cause an alarm if faulted when
exit delay ends. With system armed, faulting an entry delay zone causes “interior” zones
to begin the respective entry delay (depending on the entry zone faulted), during which
time the zone can be faulted. Interior zones cause immediate alarms if faulted without an
entry zone being activated first (while the system is armed).
5 Day Zone When faulted, causes trouble when disarmed and an alarm while armed.
24-Hour Types
8 Keyswitch Used to arm/disarm the control by momentary, non-latching switch. When arming, the
system force-arms; not ready zones are bypassed. When you are using the ADEMCO
Point ID reporting format, a PID code of 409 with a user number of 124 is sent to the
central station when the system is armed using the switch.
NOTE: If your are using a 2-digit reporting format, refer to the zone report codes
programmed (Submode 2, Questions13-18) for the codes sent.
9 Trigger/Relay Zone’s status (fault/normal) determines activation of associated trigger/relay. See
Zone trigger/relay programming in Submode 1, Questions 23–29 to enable appropriate trigger or
relay.

L1 Zone Type
Entry 24-Hour Types Description
A Trouble Zone Produces a trouble condition on zone with an option for a pulsing keypad sounder.
B Alarm Zone Activates burg bell on any faulted condition. If zone is not normal after the alarm memory
is cleared, the alarm is converted to a trouble display.
C Alarm/Trouble 24-hour zone that causes an alarm with the burg bell on a short and a trouble condition on
an open. Must be EOL to derive trouble condition. Dialer sends zone alarm code for short
and trouble code for open. If zone is not normal after the alarm memory is cleared, the
alarm is converted to a trouble display.
E Fire, No Fire zone that works like a 24-hour alarm/trouble zone but uses the fire bell. Note that this
Verification must be EOL zone. This zone type is usually used for a switched input such as a pull
station.
F Fire, With Intended for a 4-wire smoke detector connected to the smoke power terminals. A short
Verification produces a temporal fire bell and an open produces a zone trouble. Must be EOL to
derive the trouble condition.
Verification process: Verification will not occur if any fire zone in the system is already in
alarm. Upon detection of a short, power is removed from the smoke detector power
terminals for 8 seconds. After restoring power, the system waits another 4 seconds, then
tests the zone again. If a short still exists, an alarm occurs.
Fire Trouble: Fire trouble occurs in 2 different ways. The first way is for the loop to open.
The second way is if the loop is still shorted after a fire alarm has been silenced and the
user clears alarm memory. The alarm is changed to a trouble. No trouble is reported to
the CS at this time (serves as a reminder to let the end user know the zone is not active).
On clearing alarm memory, if a fire verification zone is still shorted the verification process
is repeated about every 4 minutes to try to reset the smoke detector. A tamper on a fire
zone results in a trouble, not an alarm.

Enter the digits as follows: Enter the digits as follows:
L1 L2 L3 L4 L1 L2 L3 L4
First zone Second zone First zone Second zone
Cross Zoning: Two groups of 2-zone crosses can be programmed. Two cross-zone timers are
programmable (Question 35, L3 [timer 1] and L4 [timer 2] in Programming Submode 2: Zone
Programming) in 15-second increments (15 sec. to 4 min.). Cross-zone processing only occurs when
controlled zones are armed or on 24-hour zones.
You CAN NOT cross-zone fire zones.
Cross zoning functions in either of 2 ways:

• If the group contains 2 different zones, when the first zone in the group is tripped, the cross-zone
timer loads and starts counting. An alarm will occur if:
The other zone in the same group trips before the timer reaches 0. This causes an alarm on the
second zone to trip. The first zone to trip will only go into alarm if it is still violated at the time
the second zone causes an alarm.
or
The timer expires and the zone that started the timer is still violated and has not restored
during the entire timing cycle.
• The zone is crossed to itself (e.g., Programming Submode 2, Question 33 is programmed as 0101 –
Zone 1 crossed to itself) and the zone has tripped 3 times within the timing period (Pulse counter).
UL Crossed Zones option must be disabled for UL installations.
L1/L2: First and second digit, respectively, of first zone of crossed-zone group 1
L3/L4: First and second digit, respectively, of second zone of crossed-zone group 1
Example: Locations 1, 2 = 02; Locations 3, 4 = 04. This results in a cross between zones 02 and 04.
Q 35 CROSSED ZONES TIME

This option sets the time period (number of seconds) in which both zones in a cross zone group must be
faulted for an alarm to be sent. The timer begins when either of the zones in a cross-zone group is
faulted. Enter the digits as follows:

General Information
This security system is designed to transmit data to a central station receiver when an alarm, system
trouble, or an opening/closing occurs. Due to the many different types of CS receivers in the market,
this system can transmit data in various formats. Each installing company determines which format
best suits its needs based on many factors. Of these, the CS receiver type is a major factor.
Stage What Happens
1 The system’s digital communicator seizes the home phone lines. Then it dials the CS#1
telephone number.
2 When the CS receiver picks up the ringing phone line, it transmits a “handshake”
frequency (1400Hz, 2300Hz, or HiLo) back to the digital communicator.
3 After receiving the “handshake” frequency, the digital communicator transmits the data in
the format programmed in Submode 1, Question 07, L1-L4.
4 Assuming the CS receiver verifies the data transmission as valid (after 2 successful
rounds of data or 1 valid parity round), it transmits a “kissoff” frequency back to the
digital communicator.
5 If… Then…
for any reason it proceeds to dial the CS#2 telephone number or re-dials the CS #1
the digital telephone number (if CS #2 is not used). It will continue to dial for a
communicator programmed number of times until a “kissoff” is received.
does not receive If after all programmed dialing attempts to each CS Telephone
the “kissoff” number, a “kissoff” is not received, the system will display
“Communication failure” at the keypad. This message is cleared after
the next successful transmission or by the user at the keypad.
When… Then…
the digital it stops transmitting, unless more data is available, in which case
communicator additional data transmissions and “kissoffs” occur.
receives the
“kissoff”
frequency
6 After the final “kissoff,” the CS receiver releases the phone line and processes the data to
its display and associated peripherals (computer and printer).
The following is a general description of the various formats transmitted by this system.
8-1

Standard (3x1 or 4x1)

The Standard Reporting Format: AAA E or AAAA E where:
AAAA = Three- or four-digit account number
E = Single-digit event code; it is the first of the 2 programmable reporting code digits
Standard format is transmitted in Pulse, and involves a 3- or 4-digit account number followed by a
single-digit event code. It can be transmitted with parity (1 round of data) or without parity (2 rounds
of data). A disadvantage of this format is that it can transmit a total of only 15 event codes (0–9, B–F)
without identifying zones or users. Examples:
3x1 w/o PARITY 3x1 w/PARITY

123 3 (1st round) 123 3 6 (single round)
123 3 (2nd round) 123 3 (resulting data)
123 3 (resulting data)

1234 3 (1st round) 1234 3 2 (single round)
1234 3 (2nd round) 1234 3 (resulting data)
1234 3 (resulting data)
Parity is a number derived automatically by the dialer utilizing a mathematical formula (modulo
15). For example, 123 3 adds up to 9. This is subtracted from the next-highest multiple of 15; in
this case, 15 – 9 = 6. If the CS receiver accepts a valid parity digit, it considers the data
transmission valid, delivers a “Kissoff,” and processes the data. The parity digit is not displayed.
Its only purpose is for validation of data transmitted. It is not a programmable digit; it is
generated automatically by the dialer when the Parity option is selected in programming
Submode 1, Question 07, Location 2/4. The obvious advantage of using parity is speed. The
transmission time between dialer and receiver is shorter because fewer digits are transmitted
with it as opposed to without it.
Extended (3x1 Ext. or 4x1 Ext.)

The Extended Reporting Format: AAA EZ or AAAA EZ, where:
AAAA = Three- or four-digit account number (Submode 1, Questions 05–06)
Z = Zone or user identifier; it is the second of the 2 programmable reporting code digits
Extended format is transmitted in Pulse and involves a 3- or 4-digit account number followed by a
double-digit reporting code. The only purpose for using the Extended format (sometimes known as
Universal or Expanded format) is to be able to transmit more than 15 codes to the CS receiver. The
system does this by extending the event code from the previous round of data, resulting in a 2-digit
reporting code. It can be transmitted with parity (2 rounds of data) or without parity (4 rounds of data).
There are 15 possible event codes, each of which can have up to 15 different zone or user identifiers.
Examples:
8-2

Section 8. Central Station Reporting Formats
3x1 Ext. W/O PARITY 3x1 Ext. W/PARITY

123 3 (1st round) 123 3 (2nd round) 123 3 6 (1st round)
333 1 (3rd round) 333 1 (4th round) 333 1 5 (2nd round)
123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1 123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
4x1 Ext. W/O PARITY 4x1 Ext. W/PARITY
1234 3 (1st round) 1234 3 (2nd round) 1234 3 2 (1st round)
3333 1 (3rd round) 3333 1 (4th round) 3333 1 2 (2nd round)
1234 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1 1234 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
Partial Extended (3x1 Part. Ext. or 4x1 Part. Ext.)

The Partial Extended Reporting Format: AAA EZ or AAAA EZ
where:
Z = Zone or user identifier; it is the second of the 2 programmable reporting code digits.
The Partial Extended format is a combination of both the Standard and Extended formats. It transmits
in Pulse a standard message for alarm conditions and an extended message for restores and other
system conditions. To report a standard message, enter a numerical digit (0 - 9) in the first of the 2-
digit reporting code; for an extended message, enter a hexadecimal digit (B - F) in the first of the 2-digit
reporting code. The extended messages are used whenever a zone or user identification is needed
(bypasses, restores, openings/closings, etc.). It can also transmit with and without parity. Examples
follow.
3x1 Stand. W/O PARITY (Alarm) 3x1 Part. Ext. W/O PARITY (Restore)
123 3 (1st round) 123 E (1st round) 123 E (2nd round)
123 3 (2nd round) EEE 1 (3rd round) EEE 1 (4th round)
123 3 (resulting data) Burglary 123 E1 (resulting data) Burglary
3x2 or 4x2
The 3x2 or 4x2 Reporting Format: AAA EZ or AAAA EZ, where:
This format is also in Pulse and is an alternative to the Extended format; it also transmits a 2-digit
reporting code. Its specific meaning is a 3- or 4-digit account number followed by a 2-digit alarm code. It
can be transmitted with parity (1 round of data) or without parity (2 rounds of data).
There are 15 possible event codes, each of which can have up to 15 different zone identifiers. It is
different from the extended format in the way it transmits. This is illustrated in the examples below:
8-3


123 31 (1st round) 123 31 5 (1st round)
123 31 (2nd round) 123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
123 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
1234 31 (1st round) 1234 31 1 (1st round)
1234 31 (2nd round) 1234 31 (resulting data) Burglary Zone 1
FBII Superfast (4x3x1)

The FBII Superfast Reporting Format: AAAA AZZ S, where:
AAAA = Four-digit account number (Submode 1, Questions 05–06)
A = Alarm type; it is the first of the 2 programmable reporting code digits
ZZ = Zone or user identifier; it is the second of the 2 programmable reporting code digits
S = Signal Type; it is the first of the 2 programmable reporting code digits
This format is commonly known as 4x3x1. A total of 9 digits (including the parity digit) are sent in
DTMF. It enables reporting of up to 256 (00–FF) unique zone or user identifiers instead of the 15
possible identifiers of most other pulse formats. In addition, it transmits at a much greater speed than
the conventional pulse formats, since it uses DTMF (touch-tones) instead of pulses to transmit the data
and it always sends a parity digit.
For alarms, openings, and closings, the Alarm Type digit will be the same as the Signal Type. This
indicates the type of activity or condition that has occurred. However, on bypasses, restores and
troubles, the Alarm Type will not be the same as the Signal Type. Instead, the Signal Type will change,
indicating the current condition of the zone.
NOTE: This is a unique feature of this format that allows more intelligent reporting of the activity
occurring in the system. For instance, the following unique messages can be transmitted:
1234 1 01 1 Fire Zone 001
1234 1 01 E Restore Fire Zone 001
1234 1 01 F Trouble Fire Zone 001
ADEMCO 4x1 Express

The 4x1 Express Reporting Format: AAAA 17 E, where:
17 = Uniquely identifies this format to the receiver and to an automation system, but is not
displayed or printed.
This format transmits in DTMF a total of 6 digits (including the parity digit). It is similar to the
Standard format in that it can transmit a total of only 15 reporting codes. However, its advantage is
speed because it transmits touch-tones instead of pulses and it always sends a parity digit. Examples:
123 3 6 (1st round)
123 3 (resulting data) Burglary
8-4

ADEMCO 4x2 Express

The 4x2 Express Reporting Format: AAAA 27 EZ, where:
27 = Uniquely identifies this format to the receiver and to an automation system but is not
displayed or printed
This format transmits in DTMF a total of 7 digits (including the parity digit). This format is similar to
the 4x1 Extended and 4x2 formats in that the output sends a 4-digit account and 2-digit event code.
However, its advantage is speed because it transmits touch-tones instead of pulses and it always sends
a parity digit. Examples:
1234 31 1 (1st round)
ADEMCO Point ID
The Point ID Reporting Format: AAA 18 QXYZ ZZZ, where:
AAAA = Four-digit account number (Submode 1, Questions 05–06)
18 = Uniquely identifies this format to the receiver and to an automation system but is not
displayed or printed
Q = Event qualifier, which gives specific event information
1 = New Event or Opening
3 = New Restore or Closing
XYZ = Event Code: The event code is a 3-digit code (3 decimal digits). For zone alarms and some
conditions, this can be specified; other conditions are dedicated. See the tables that follow.
ZZZ = Zone, sensor or user identifier (3 decimal digits). For user initiated actions such as
openings/closings, this will be the actual user number (01–15).
This format is also known as ADEMCO Contact ID. A total of 16 digits (including the parity digit) are
sent in DTMF. This format enables reporting of 999 (001–999) unique zone or user identifiers instead of
the 15 possible identifiers of most other pulse formats. This feature allows the full reporting capability
of this system (12 zones and 15 users). In addition, it transmits at a much greater speed than the
conventional pulse formats, since it uses DTMF (touch-tones) instead of pulses to transmit the data and
it always sends a parity digit. Its main advantage over all the other formats is its large number of event
codes (see tables below) with the ability to pinpoint an event (alarm, trouble, bypass, restore, etc.) to a
specific zone and to report openings/closings for many users.
Some open/close events generate fixed PID codes and user numbers that cannot be changed or
suppressed. These open/close events are listed below:
FUNCTION PID USER NO. FUNCTION PID USER NO.
Quick Arm 408 128 Remote Arm/Disarm 407 125
Quick Force Arm 408 127 Auto Arm 403 126
STAY Key Arm 401 128 Soft Key/Arm-Only Switch Arm 401 123
INSTANT Key Arm 401 128 Zone Keyswitch 409 124
8-5

For some reporting codes, the first of the two programmable digits determines the PID Event code to be
transmitted. Other reporting codes transmit a dedicated PID Event code regardless of the digit
programmed in the first location. In both cases, if transmissions are not desired, then program AA in
locations 1 and 2. Refer to the following tables to select the PID Event codes to be transmitted.

LIMITATIONS OF THIS SYSTEM

While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection
against burglary, fire, or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is
subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons.
For example:
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to
bypass an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing
devices will not work without power. Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with
dead batteries or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not
work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the
alarm receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage
can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths, they may not
activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires. Some of
the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this system may not work are as follows:
Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not
sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or
roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not sense a fire on another
level of a residence or building. A second-floor detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor
or basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can
sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused
by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas,
improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with
matches, or arson. Depending on the nature of the fire and/or the location of the smoke
detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to
allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can detect intrusion only within the designed ranges as
diagrammed in their installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric
area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected
in unobstructed areas covered by the beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes
place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows.
Mechanical tampering, masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows, or
any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense
changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of the protected area approaches
the temperature range of 90° to 104°F (32° to 40°C), the detection performance can decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers
who are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a
different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert
people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm
10-4

Section 10. Regulatory/Limitations Statements
is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliances, or by passing traffic.
Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken
deep sleepers.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station
may be out of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to
compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have
insufficient time to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored
alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this
equipment is designed to last as long as 20 years, the electronic components could fail at any
time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs
is inadequate maintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all
sensors are working properly. Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower
insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners,
property owners, and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and
continue to insure their lives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe
it to themselves and their loved ones to learn about these developments.
