The SCS2 is a multi-line, multi-format digital receiver for
commercial fire and burglary. The basic unit consists of up
to 15 individual line card modules (SCS2-200) and 30 telco
lines connected to a SCS2-300. The SCS2 can decode a variety
of popular and widely used communication formats. Refer
to Appendix A, SCS2-200 Communication Formats for a list
of the available communication protocols.
The SCS2’s real-time clock and calendar stamps all information
received with the time and date, and all information can be
printed and/or forwarded to a computer. To ensure security,
adjustment of the clock, calendar and other programming is
password-protected.
SCS2-300
The SCS2-300 Central Processing Module oversees operation
of the line cards. Along with its built-in keypad and LCD
message screen, the SCS2-300 features one parallel printer
port, and two COM Ports.
SCS2-200
Each SCS2-200 module can monitor two telephone lines. The
line card module is equipped with a 256-event non-volatile
memory buffer to record events and corresponding telephone
numbers. Caller Source capability is built-in and telephone
numbers can be printed out, sent to automation and stored
in memory. Events and information stored in memory can be
printed at any time. Each line card also features flash EPROM
uploads through the Debug port for software upgrades or
options programming.
SUPERVISION
The standby battery voltage and connections are supervised.
The line cards are also continuously supervised to ensure
uninterrupted communication with the SCS2-300. Any trouble
conditions are reported on the LCD screens and sent to the
printer and the computer.
The SCS2-200 line card module also verifies communications
with the SCS2-300. In the event of a malfunction, the operator
will be advised with a visual indication and the line cards will
continue to function. Each line card will continue to receive
information.
The printer is supervised for loss of power, off-line, paper
out and other trouble conditions. The communication link to
the computer through the RS-232 port is monitored by the
supervisory “heartbeat” test transmissions.
COMPATIBILITY
Central station automation software packages such as
M.A.S., DICE, SIMSII, S.I.S., GENESIS and MICROKEY
support the SCS2 DMP interface. Compatibility with the automation
software in a system used at a central station is intended to
be handled under a separate UL 1981 software package and/
or site certification evaluation.
SCS2-300 OUTPUTS/INPUTS
The SCS2-300 features three switched-negative outputs. One
output labeled “OPTION” has a corresponding LED on the
SCS2-300 front panel; the factory default programming slowly
flashes the OPTION LED when the “OPTION” output is activated.
Switched negative outputs are also provided for the
Acknowledge and Trouble LEDs.

VIRTUAL RECEIVER ARCHITECTURE
The most novel feature of the SCS2-200 is its ability to use
the telephone company information delivered as DNIS (Dialed
Number Information Service) or Caller ID. This allows the
DMP Format Expert System to handle on the fly each received
call. With this feature, dedicated line pool hardware is
eliminated. Instead, the DNIS or Caller ID information allows
dynamic options that set up virtual line pools to identify
security formats and extend account numbers.
Standard DNIS is supported up to 10 digits. Each dialed
number should be assigned to a virtual receiver. Multiple
Caller ID numbers can be assigned to a single virtual receiver.
Each dialed number would formerly have been a line pool
on conventional line cards.
NUMBER OF LINE CARDS SUPPORTED
The system will support a maximum of 15 line card modules
concurrently connected.

SCS2-200 DIGITAL RECEIVER
LINE CARD
The SCS2-200 acts as an interface between the digital alarm
transmitter and the SCS2-300. Different communication formats
can be used to transmit the information.
The main functions of the line cards are to continuously
monitor the telephone line, receive calls from digital dialers
or control panels, and to report alarms to the SCS2-300. In
addition, if a line card is unable to communicate with the
SCS2-300, each line card is capable of functioning
independently. Each line card can record 256 different alarm
messages and 255 Caller-ID telephone numbers.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The receiver is capable of processing signals from digital
communicators in a variety of formats. The type of signal
(alarm, trouble, restore, cancel and so on) can be printed.
SCS2-200 FEATURES

COMMUNICATIONS IN PROGRESS
Data Reception
During data reception, a message similar to this will be displayed:
In Communication
1234 56
If valid Caller Identification information is received, a message
similar to this will be displayed:
TEL:15145551212
1234 56
The SCS2-200 decodes all information received and stores
the information in its event buffer. When a valid signal is
received, the SCS2-200 sends a kissoff signal and transmits
the decoded alarm signal to the computer and then to the
printer through the SCS2-300.
Options [1D] and [1E] can be adjusted to allow the SCS2-200
to compensate for weak signals or noisy telephone lines;
refer to “SCS2-200 Programmable Features” for information
on programming these options.
The SCS2-200 will send each message it receives to the
printer for review by the system operator. Two messages
may be sent to the printer to indicate reception problems:
“Invalid Report” and “Communication Fail”.
This output for account code “0000” indicates that data has
been received, but is not valid (for example, there are
unmatched rounds or the wrong parity). The following is an
example of faulty data received by the SCS2-200, and the
printer output generated:
NOTE: There is only 1 invalid report at the end of a call.
COMMUNICATION FAIL
When this problem is encountered, the following information
is transmitted to the printer and the computer:
Printer: L01- 0000-COMMUNICATION FAIL TIME:DATE
Computer: 0RRL[#0000 | NYCRRLL]
NOTE: The first RRL is subject to the line card length
option. The second RRLL is the receiver and line card
number, both in HEX.
This output indicates that a call was received, but no data was
detected. The call may have been a wrong number, or the
calling control panel was unable to connect with the receiver’s
handshake.
CALLER ID
If an Invalid Report or Communication Fail occurs, and
Caller ID is enabled, the printer messages will be similar to
the following:
Note that “?” represents the missing data; “5551212” represents
the originating telephone number.
Stopping Data Reception Manually
To cancel communications between the SCS2-200 line card
and the calling control panel, press the [CANCEL] button.
Pressing the [CANCEL] button will hang up the line. This
feature can be used to hang up on a control panel that is

PROFILES
The SCS2-200 will load unique “profiles” in order to effectively
communicate with control panels. A profile is a set of pre-programmed line card options unique for a particular “Calling ID
Number” or DNIS number. The “Calling id” or “DNIS” will point to a
particular profile, which will then be loaded into the line card at the
beginning of each call.
Each SCS2-200 can have a maximum of 64 profiles. To change the
options for a particular profile, utility software is provided. This
software will allow the user /operator to edit the profiles.
Option [05]: Pre-Handshake Delay
When the line card seizes the line, it will wait the time
programmed at option [05], then send the first handshake.
The time programmed (hex) at this location will be multiplied
by 100 ms – e.g., 100 ms, 200 ms etc.
The default setting is 0A, for 1 second.
NOTE: If DNIS is used, this time will not start until DNIS
is received.
[Default is 00]
STATIC OPTIONS
Option [01]: Line Card Number
The Line Card Number provides a virtual identification code
for each SCS2-200 module. Hexadecimal numbers “01” to
“1E” can be programmed in Option [01] to identify line
cards.
[Defaults are 0D and 0E]
Option [02]: Line Card Number Length
This option is used to determine how many digits from the
line card number will be sent to the output. You also have
the option of displaying the number in hex or decimal.
Program option 02 with one of the following:
01 Send only one hex digit to the printer or computer
output (If you have a 2 digit line card number, only
the last digit will be sent to the output).
02 Send 2 hex digit line card number to the output.
03 Send 3 hex digit line card number to the output (leading
zeros will be inserted prior to the line card number).
0A Send 2 digits receiver number in decimal. 3 digits line
number in decimal.

3 digits line card number in decimal.
0E Send 2 digits receiver number in Hex. Send 1 digit
line card number as follows:
Line Card #Send
1..F1..F
10..1EG..U
NOTE: When using the SCS2-200, the Line Card Number
Length option should always correspond to the number
of DNIS digits being received.
For example, if 5 digits are being received then the Line
Card Number Length Option should be programmed to 3
so that 1RRLLL would be overwritten by the 5 digits of
DNIS to become 1ddddd.[Default is 0E]
Option [04]: 2-Way Audio Activation Time
Option [04] determines how long, in 10-second increments,
the 2-Way Audio function will be active once it is initiated.

See APPENDIX D
Option [74]: Equivalent Line
Equivalent line option is used when an incoming signal can
be received on another receiver telephone line if the original
line is busy. Information printed and/or sent to the computer
will indicate that the information was received on the same
telephone line. The receiver number does not change. Program
00 at option [74] to disable, or a number from 01 to 1E.
[Default is 00]
Option [75]: Receiver Number
The Receiver Number is used to identify the receiver to the
central station software.
Refer to the manuals for any central station automation
software being used to determine if there are any special
requirements for this number. Also, check the numbers used
for any other receivers in the station to ensure that numbers
are not duplicated.
[Default is 01]
Option [70]: Automation Common Event Code
Some central station software packages are unable to process
the alarm using the event codes listed in the SCS2-200 Decoding
Library. Where a central station monitors thousands of accounts
belonging to different companies, the same reporting codes
may have different meanings depending on the company.
Because of this, the individual event codes in Options [30]
through [5F] cannot accurately represent the alarm condition.
To overcome this, Option [70] may be programmed as follows:
ProgramOperation
00Use Individual Event Codes to computer
20, 30-39, 41-5A Use Common Event Codes (space, 0-9, A-Z)
When using Common Event Codes, it is recommended that
either hexadecimal code “5A” (ASCII “Z”) or hexadecimal
code “41” (ASCII “A”) be used.
The “Space” character (Hex 20) can be used as the common
event code with certain automation software packages to
avoid account code database changes when switching over
from other brand receivers to the DMP receiver.

SIA FSK
The SIA digital format is a modem format communicating at
110 or 300 Baud and using the SIA protocol to transfer
information to the computer.
The standard SCS2-200 can receive Bell 103 modem frequencies.
NOTE: The SCS2-200 can accept SIA formats with and without separators. The SCS2-200 version 1.3 software implements
Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the SIA 1993IIb Digital Communication
Standard, but it does not support “Receiver Call out and
Access Passcode Block,” “Reverse Channel Block,” and “V-
Channel Communications".
The SCS2-200 supports an account code with a maximum of
16 digits, (including any displayable ASCII characters except
the pipe symbol: “|”). It also supports an alarm code with
a maximum of 4 digits. Usually, the central station automation
refers to the SIA Event Block Data Code Definitions for
information on interpreting the alarm codes.
Acknowledgments for the SIA format are tonal by default.
The transmitter may, however, request data acknowledgment
by transmission of the optional configuration block. When
the SCS2-200 receives the configuration block from a
transmitter requiring data acknowledgment, it will send the
tonal acknowledgment to this block. It will then send the
data acknowledgment to the following data blocks if the
data received is valid.

SCS2-300 Computer Interface
The SCS2-300 is able to send alarm messages to a computer
connected to the COM1 serial port. This section describes the
communication procedures, and the communication formats
available for use.
31
Page 34
OVERVIEW OF COMMUNICATION
When the SCS2-300 receives data from a line card, it forwards
the data to COM1 and awaits an acknowledgment signal
from the computer. If a NAK signal is received from the
computer, the SCS2-300 will make 4 attempts to send the
data. If all four attempts fail, SCS2-300 buzzer will sound
and the SCS2-300 will retain the alarms in its internal buffer
until communications are restored. This routing provides
reliable and supervised communication between the SCS2300 and the line cards. The SCS2-300 also monitors the
connection to the computer by sending a supervisory
“heartbeat” signal through COM1 every 30 seconds. If the
“heartbeat” transmission determines that the computer is
off-line or disconnected, a message similar to this will be
sent to the printer:
Com#1 Absent!! 09:45-21/09/92
Note that the message indicates the time and date that
communications through COM1 were determined to be
interrupted. When COM1 communications are re-established,
a message similar to this one will be printed:
Com#1 Restored 09:50-21/09/92
Note that the message indicates the time and date that
communications through COM1 were determined to be reestablished. The “heartbeat” feature may be disabled if
this feature is not compatible with the central station
automation software being used on the computer.
SCS2-300 COM1 STATUS REPORT MESSAGES
The SCS2-300 will send the following messages to COM1 to
report internal status conditions. SCS2-300 will use an account
code of “0000” to indicate that it is reporting an internal
condition. The line number is fixed to be “0.”
Sent to COM1Event
0000 A 00Reserved to indicate Operator activity

AUTOMATION PROTOCOLS
The DMP SG-SCS2 receiver sends the various protocols to
report signals to the central station computer via an RS-232
port. The complete description of protocols is available upon
request.
DATA BYTE PROTOCOL
The DMP SCS2 receiver uses a default configuration of 19200
Baud, one start bit, seven data bits, one even parity bit, and
one stop bit structure to transmit and receive signals on the
RS-232 port. This protocol can be programmed on the receiver
to enable different configurations.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE SIGNAL
The DMP receiver requires an acknowledgment signal [ACK]
(Hex 06) from the computer software within 4 seconds for
each message sent. Failure to receive the [ACK] will result in
the retransmission of the same signal three times before giving
up. The same thing happens if the receiver receives a [NAK]
(hex 15). In case of communication failure with the computer,
the DMP receiver can store up to 127 times the number of
lines installed in its internal memory. The communication is
resumed when the first ACK is received on the heartbeat.

The 24 Hour Timetest will occur only for the first 14 line
cards. Changes are rarely required, but these features may
be changed to suit particular needs. To make changes to
the EPROM programming, first insert a standard SCS2-300
EPROM into an EPROM programming unit. Follow the
instructions provided with the EPROM programmer to select
addresses and modify data. Ensure that the correct addresses
are being programmed, and verify the existing data in the
address before making changes.

User should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections
of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if
present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important
in rural areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but
should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as
appropriate.
NOTICE: The Load Number assigned to each terminal device denotes the
percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used

la terre de la source d'énergie électrique, les lignes téléphoniques et les canalisations
d'eau métalliques, s'il y en a, sont raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution est
particulièrement importante dans les régions rurales.
AVERTISSEMENT: L'utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces raccordements
lui-même; il doit avoir recours à un service d'inspection des installations électriques,
ou à un électricien, selon le cas.
L'indice de charge (IC) assigné à chaque dispositif terminal indique, pour
éviter toute surcharge, le pourcentage de la charge totale qui peut être reccordée
à un circuit té;éphonique bouclé utilisé par ce dispositif. La terminaison deu
circuit bouclé peut être constituée de n'importe quelle combinaison de dispositifs,
pourvu que la somme des indices de charge de l'ensemble des dispositifs ne
dépasse pas 100.

FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communication. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
CAUTION:Changes or modification not expressly approved by DMP Security
Systems Ltd. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Important Information
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the back of this
equipment is a label that contains among other information, the FCC registration
number of this equipment.
Notification to Telephone Company
Upon request, the customer shall notify the telephone company of the particular
line to which the connection will be made, and provide the FCC registration number
and the ringer equivalence of the protective circuit.
FCC Registration Number: 1VDCAN-35164-AL-N
Ringer Equivalence Number: 01A
Telephone Connection Requirements
Except for the telephone company provided ringers, all connections to the telephone
network shall be made through standard plugs and telephone company provided
jacks, or equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy, immediate disconnection
of the terminal equipment. Standard jacks shall be so arranged that, if the plug
connected thereto is withdrawn, no interference to the operation of the equipment
at the customer's premises which remains connected to the telephone network
shall occur by reason of such withdrawal.
Incidence of Harm
Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify the customer
that temporary disconnection of service may be required; however, where prior
notice is not practicable, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue
service if such action is deemed reasonable in the circumstances. In the case of
such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company shall promptly notify
the customer and will be given the opportunity to correct the situation.
Changes in Telephone Company Equipment or Facilities
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures, where such actions are reasonably required
and proper in its business. Should any such changes render the customer's terminal
equipment incompatible with the telephone company facilities, the customer
shall be given adequate notice to effect the modifications to maintain uninterrupted
service.
General
This equipment should not be used on coin telephone lines. Connection to party
line service is subject to state tariffs.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices that you may connect
to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone
number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN's of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed five (5). To be certain of the number
of devices that you may connect to your line, you may want to contact your
local telephone company.
Equipment Maintenance Facility
If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact the
facility indicated below for information on obtaining service or repairs. The
telephone company may ask you disconnect this equipment from the network
until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is
not malfunctioning.
