D9131A

Overview

1.0 Overview

1.1 Description

The printer installed with your security system records various types of events. You need a D9131A Parallel Printer
Interface Module to be able to use the printer. Your security system has been programmed by your security technician
to provide you with printed reports of activities such as Openings, Closings, Alarms, etc. This User’s Guide describes
the types of reports that can be printed, and explains the information contained in these reports. The manual that
comes with your printer explains printer functions such as how to load printer paper.

You can display events from your security system on a monitor; however, you will not retain a permanent record of
your system events this way.

1.2 Operation

The security system only remembers a certain number of events. If more than this number of events occur, new events
push out older events one by one. Your system has a Print Log command that allows you to print the entire history of
events stored in your system or you may select to print only events that have occurred from a specific date forward.

1.3 Printing Format

Your security system prints events with top and bottom margins and form feed between pages with descriptive headers.
Each event is printed on two lines. The first line contains the time and date the event occurred. The second line contains
the type of event and additional information.
