INTRODUCTION
The Galaxy alarm system is, in fact, a computer which has been designed using the latest
software and hardware technology.
First and foremost, the Galaxy meets all your security needs. The engineer will program and
commission the system to your own exacting requirements.

Keypad Information
General
The Galaxy Alarm system is controlled by Galaxy Mk7 Full Alpha Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD) keypads. A maximum of 16 keypads may be connected to the Galaxy 8, 18 and 60
and 128 control panels. A maximum of 32 keypads may be attached to the Galaxy 500, 504
and 512 control panels.
NUMBER KEYS (0 – 9)
These keys are used to enter the code and to select and modify options.
Before carrying out operations on the system, users must identify themselves with a Personal
Identification Number (PIN). This number is a 4, 5 or 6 digit number selected from keys 0 - 9.
The number keys are also used where groups are programmed on the system permitting
groups (areas) to be set or unset.
VIEW KEYS (A and B)
These keys have been programmed to activate one of the system options. Pressing the A > key
after a valid code has been entered starts the full set routine. Pressing the < B key after a valid
code has been entered starts the part set routine.
Once a system option has been selected, the A > or < B keys can be used to operate as view
keys, stepping forwards (A >) or backwards (< B) through lists of information. Holding down
a view key while viewing an option list, rapidly displays each item in the list, permitting quick
access to the information.

ENTER KEY (ent)
The ent key accepts and processes entered data. Valid actions are performed and the next
option is accessed.
ESCAPE KEY (esc)
The esc key aborts the current option to return to the previous option level. Any option
modification made prior to the option being aborted is erased. Successive pressing of the esc
key returns the user to the start display (known as the BANNER).
The esc key also aborts the setting routine if pressed during the exit time.
HASH KEY (#)
The # key is used to display additional choices for certain options, e.g. ADVANCE/RETARD
the time in the TIME/DATE option.
This key is also used as the user duress key (by pressing twice following a valid code
entry).
STAR KEY (*)
The * key is used to provide additional features for certain options, e.g. printing the event log
or deleting entries.
POWER LED
The green power LED remains lit whenever the keypad is connected to a mains power
supply. A mains power failure is indicated by the LED flashing slowly. The LED flashes
rapidly if the battery voltage falls below the minimum threshold or if one of the fuses on the
control panel PCB blows.
BANNER
The banner is the display shown on the keypad, e.g. Galaxy 504 V2.00 (with the time and
date on the bottom line). This is shown at all times when the system is unset, unless the menu
is being accessed or an alarm or help message is on the display. The banner can be changed
by the engineer. In the set condition the banner is normally blank.
USER CODES
The user code is a unique four, five or six digit PIN (Personal Identification Number). The
PIN identifies the user to the Galaxy Alarm panel and allows operation of the system.

SETTING GROUPS
Where group choice has been assigned to the PIN, select which groups
have to set as part of the setting routine. The set status of each group is
displayed on the keypad screen. Possible status options are :-
R = Ready (Groups is unset, and all zones are closed)
F = Faulted (Group is unset, and at least one zone is open)
S = Set (Group is set)
L = Lockout (Group is locked out, and cannot be unset)

UNSETTING THE SYSTEM
NORMAL ENTRY
Unsetting starts immediately when the FINAL door is opened or an
ENTRY zone is activated. The sounder pulses slowly and the user must
go directly to the keypad and enter a valid PIN, followed by A>, <B or
ent. Users with group choice, will access the UNSET screen following
PIN entry. This permits the user to unset specific groups. To return to
the SET screen press ent.
STRAYING FROM THE ENTRY ROUTE
Go directly to the keypad when entering the building. If the user strays
into a protected area and activates a zone, a full alarm will occur. The
police may be called out and the system will have to be reset.
SLOW ENTRY
Enter a valid PIN before the entry time expires. If the entry time expires
before a valid PIN is entered, then a full alarm will occur. The sounder
begins to pulse quickly when 75% of the entry time has elapsed
indicating time is running short.
CANCELLING ALARMS
To cancel an alarm, enter a valid PIN followed by ent at the keypad.
The keypad displays details of the zone activated. When more than one
zone is activated, details can be viewed using A > or < B. Press ent to
return to the banner. Certain types of alarms, once cancelled, require a
code with the appropriate reset authorisation to be entered. The system
prompts for a valid reset code by displaying MANAGER RESET
REQUIRED or ENGINEER RESET REQUIRED on the keypad.
MANAGER RESET

ACCESSING THE MENU
To access the menu enter a valid code and press the ent key. The Full
Menu or Quick Menu is accessed, depending on the user level.
Note: 1. If the user does not have group choice, all groups assigned
to the user code must be unset.
2. If the user has group choice, at least one group on the
system must be unset.
3. If there are no groups, then the system must be unset.
FULL MENU
The Full Menu has a hierarchy of four structures contained within it.
Each structure is accessible by an increased user code level.
QUICK MENU
The Quick Menu offers users level three and above a selection of up to
10 options, numbered 0 – 9. The required option is selected by entering the option number (0 – 9) or by using the A > or < B keys to
display each option.
The menu options (as with all Galaxy lists) are circular, therefore menu
option 9 is followed by menu option 0.
The following Quick Menu options are the factory default settings.
Each option is described in the following pages.

SETTING WITH OMITTED ZONES
When the list of omitted zones is complete the setting routine is started
by pressing the ent key. The system starts to set and the display indicates
how many zones have been omitted. Alternatively the esc key can be
used to return to the menu options. Zones that have been omitted remain
omitted even after using the esc key.
Note: All zones omitted are recorded in the log against the user.
GALAXY 512
The Galaxy 512 will only allow a single eligible zone to be omitted
from the system. Once a zone has been omitted, it is not possible to
view other zones with the omit attribute enabled, until the omitted
zone is re-instated (either automatically or manually).
VIBRATION ZONES (504 & 512 only)
If the omitted zone is a vibration zone, then all zones of this type (in
all groups) will be block omitted. The vibration zones remain

• QUICK MENU
All user codes default to the quick menu. This menu is made up of
a selection of ten options (0 – 9) from the menu options 11 – 68.
The user code level controls access to the quick menu. Any user
can be upgraded from the quick menu to the full menu by assigning
a * to the user while the Modify Level option is accessed. Therefore
a user with a level *5 would have access to the full menu from
options 11 – 39. No code can access both menus.
Note: The manager code defaults to the quick menu on the
Galaxy 8 and 18, but defaults to the full menu on the Galaxy
60, 128, 500, 504 and 512.
MODIFY NAME
This allows a name to be assigned to the user (maximum six characters).
Each of the user codes default to the name USER and the manager
defaults to MGR. The manager name cannot be changed. On selecting
the Modify Name option, a section of the alpha-numeric that can be
assigned to the user name is displayed on the bottom line of the keypad;
the cursor flashes on the letter L. Press * to erase the letters of the
default or previous name. When the previous name has been erased,
use the A> or <B keys to move the cursor to the first letter of the name
and press the ent key. The selected character appears on the top line,
continue this process until the name is completed. The # key toggles
between upper and lower case characters and the system library. Press
esc to save the name and exit.
TIME ZONE (Galaxy 60, 128, 500, 504 and 512)
Managers can allocate time zones to user PINs when TIMERS have
been programmed by the engineer. Time zones are used to disable the
user PIN during the times (ON to OFF) programmed in TIMER A
and B.
When 4 = TIME ZONE displays, press the ent key . Using the A> key
select the time zones option to be allocated to the PIN. The following
time zones options are available:
0=OFF
1=TIMER A
2=TIMER B
3=TIMER A+B
The times assigned to Timer A and Timer B can be viewed using
option 45 Timer Control. No access will be granted if a code, assigned
to 1=Timer A, 2=Timer B or 3= Timer A+B is entered out with the
assigned times, an Illegal Code event is recorded in the log and any
outputs programmed as Illegal Code are activated.

TEMPORARY CODES (Galaxy 128, 500, 504 and 512)
Temporary Codes allow a PIN to be temporarily allocated to a user.
On selecting this option, enter the number of days (0 – 99) that the
code is to remain active. The default setting of 0 indicates that the
code is permanent. A temporary code expires and is removed from the
codes list at midnight after the assigned number of days. A code that
has been assigned as a Temporary Code is indicated on the user code
display by a ^ between the user number and the user name, e.g. 001^
USER.
Note: The manager code cannot be assigned as a Temporary
Code.
PIN CHANGE (Galaxy 128, 500, 504 and 512)
To program a user code as a PIN Change code, select the Temporary
Codes option and press the * key instead of a number of days for a
temporary code. Press the ent key to accept the programming and return
to the previous menu level. A code assigned as a PIN Change code is
indicated on the user code display by a * between the user number and
the user name, e.g. 001 * USER. If a user is assigned the PIN Change
feature in the Temporary Code option, the user must assign a new
PIN after a predetermined period of time otherwise the PIN expires
and is no longer operational. A notification (1 – 28 days) that the PIN
requires to be changed can be assigned using the PIN Warning option.
This prompts the user to assign a new code whenever the expiring
code is entered during the PIN Warning period (except during system
unsetting). The new PIN must be four to six digits long and must be
different from any current PIN. The new PIN must be re-entered and if
confirmed, returns the user to the banner. If the esc key is pressed or
the new PIN entered is invalid, the user may continue to use the panel
as normal. The next PIN entry will prompt the PIN change.
Note: If the user has not entered a new PIN by the end of the
PIN Warning period, then the PIN is erased on the next
unsetting of the system.

AVOIDING FALSE ALARMS
False alarms are inconvenient and may be costly. Police can withhold response from consistent
offenders.
Here are nine points to help avoid false alarms.
1. Be sure you fully understand how to operate the alarm system. In your absence someone
thoroughly instructed, should be available to operate the system.
2. Before leaving the premises ensure that all doors and windows are securely closed.
3. Where passive infra red or movement detectors are installed make sure the areas are kept
free from all animals or birds. Particular attention should be paid to swinging signs,
fluorescent lights, Christmas decorations, electric fans, heating or ventilating systems.
These should be switched off if possible
4. Always follow the exit/entry route procedure agreed with your alarm installer.
5. Treat the alarm components with care to ensure they are not damaged.
6. Consult your alarm installer about changes to your building and its contents if you think
they may affect the alarm system or its performance.
7. Always report alarm activation to your alarm installer. If necessary, an engineer will be
sent to check the system.
8. If opening or closing times are monitored by a central station be sure you notify them of
any variations from the agreed times or password.
9. The system should be fitted with a stand-by battery (not included) which will operate the
system for a limited period in the event of a mains failure. Please ensure that the mains is
restored as quickly as possible so that the stand-by battery can be recharged.
