Introduction
Congratulations on choosing the
Solution-8
security control system to protect you
and your property. So that you can get the most from your alarm system we suggest that
you take the time to read through this manual and familiarise yourself with the
Solution-8
and its many outstanding operating features.
You will notice that in all aspects of planning, engineering, styling, operation,
convenience and adaptability, we have sought to anticipate your every possible
requirement.
Features
The
Solution-8
security control system uses the very latest in microprocessor
technology to provide you with more useful features and superior reliability and
performance.
Following is a list of some of the features and why they will be of benefit to you.
Operating codes may be up to six digits long. This allows for a far greater
combination of codes and therefore a higher degree of security.
Dynamic battery testing continually tests and monitors the standby batteries
condition. As batteries do not last forever this feature will warn you of poor
battery condition before an alarm occurs.
Day alarm warning allows you to monitor the opening of a front door in a shop or
to prohibit access into a particular area while the system is still disarmed.
Remote arming is a unique feature that allows you to arm your alarm system from
any telephone in the world. This is very useful if you forget to arm your system.
The built in telephone dialler will alert you or your monitoring station of any
alarm or adverse event 24 Hours a day. This highly sophisticated communications
system is capable of identifying and reporting many different events. For full
details please contact your installer.
All of the system configuration information is stored in non volatile memory
which means that many of the options can be programmed on site by the installer
to best suit your needs. This data is retained even when the power is disconnected
to the system.
Stay mode allows you to arm the system with predetermined areas disabled. This
means that you can arm your system at night while you are still at home thus
giving you personal protection.

Basic System Operation
The overall purpose of your alarm system is to deter any would be intruder from
entering your premises.
Before leaving your home or office make sure all the windows and doors are closed.
Key in your designated code followed by the AWAY button. Your alarm system will
now arm and commence counting down the pre-programmed exit time.
You should exit the building during this time closing the exit path on your way.
After the exit time expires, a long beep will be heard and any unsealed zones will
automatically be isolated.
The system is now ready to accept alarms.
If a sealed zone is now opened, a number of pre-programmed events will occur.
Following is a typical sequence of events.
The alarm system will activate the audible devices such as sirens and trigger strobe and
the dialler. The dialler will then transmit all relevant alarm information via the
telephone line alerting the respective persons of the current state of events.
The siren timer will commence counting down as soon as an alarm occurs. When the
time expires the siren will be automatically turned off and placed into a ready state for
the next alarm.
Upon your return, the strobe light will be operating informing you that there has been an
alarm.
One or a number of zones will be flashing allowing you to identify the particular zone
that has caused the alarm condition.
The next time the alarm system is armed the indicators will be cleared automatically.
This is a very basic outline of the general system operation. As there are many features
available in the
Solution-8
, there could be numerous variations from the above
sequence.
These would be determined and explained by your installer.

Mains Indicator
The MAINS indicator is used to indicate that the system mains power is normal or has
failed.
Indication Definition
Flashing Power Failure
On Power Normal
Fault Indicator
The FAULT indicator is used to indicate that the system has detected a battery fault and
that you should contact your installer.
There are however some modes of operation such as changing a user code where the
FAULT indicator is used to represent the digit '9'. This should not be considered as a
fault but interpreted as intended, according to the current mode of operation.
Indication Definition
Off System Normal
On System Failure or displaying the digit '9' during programming
Audible Indications
In general the audible indicators given out by the console are as follows.
Indication Definition
One short beep Indicates that there has been a button pressed or that there
is a Mains failure.
Two short beeps Indicates that the system has accepted your code.
Three short beeps Indicates that the requested function has been executed.
One long beep Indicates end of exit time or that the requested operation
has been denied or aborted.
One short beep / second Indicates that you are currently in the walk test mode.
One short beep / minute Indicates that a mains failure exists, this will coincide
with a flashing mains indicator.

Extinguish Mode
This option when programmed by your installer will cause the indicators on your
console to automatically extinguish if the console is not used for a period of sixty
seconds. At any time the indicators can be brought back to an illuminated state by
pressing a button, an alarm condition or when the system is in entry time. The indicators
will not illuminate if a silent alarm is triggered.
NOTE:
This option can only be programmed by your installer
.
Console Operations
Introduction
The following pages will describe how to use and interpret the many console functions
that are available on the
Solution-8
.
Most functions are performed using the master code.
Before attempting to enter any of the master code functions ensure that the system is in
the disarmed state and that there are no alarm memory indicators flashing. If this is not
the case the following will be required.
If the zone indicators are flashing fast at three pulses per second, key in your master
code followed by the AWAY button.
If the panel becomes armed, (ie. the AWAY indicator is illuminated) key in your code
followed by the AWAY button again. This will place the system back into the disarmed
state.
If the system is not disarmed, (ie. the AWAY or STAY indicators are illuminated) key
in your code followed by the AWAY button.
The factory default master code is
2580.
This code can be changed at any time therefore
if your system master code differs from the default, please substitute your existing
master code in the following examples.
This code allows you to change any users code and even the master code itself. It is also
the only code that allows the execution of special functions as detailed later in this
manual.
Codes can be up to six digits in length. This is dependent on the configuration set up by
you installer.

It should also be noted that for any code that has trailing zeros, the zeros need not be
entered when arming or disarming the system.
Example:
If your code is 2670 then you only need to enter 267 AWAY
to turn the system on and off.
The trailing zeros must however be entered whenever a special master code operation is
to be performed. The following operations require any trailing zeros to be entered.
Altering or Adding codes

To enter the CODE CHANGE mode, key in the current MASTER CODE followed by
the number '1' then AWAY.
You will hear three beeps and the AWAY indicator will flash fast at three pulses per
second to indicate a successful entry.
Now key in the user number that you wish to alter followed by AWAY button. You will
hear two beeps and the corresponding zone indicator will illuminate. User number nine
will be indicated by the FAULT indicator. If user five is being altered then zone
indicator number 5 will illuminate. If user thirteen is being altered then the FAULT and
Zone 4 indicators will illuminate
Example:
Fault indicator (9) + Zone 4 indicator (4) = 13.
Now proceed to key in your new code followed by AWAY button.
Three beeps will be heard, the AWAY indicator will extinguish and the system will
return to normal.
Output Codes
Output codes one and two are treated as user codes sixteen and seventeen
respectively. To alter output codes one or two follow the same procedure as
above.
