the system you are working on will depend on how to interpret the information.
Example: If zones above 16 are mentioned then X64 is being described.
Training must be done with X64 panels as some of the exercises are not suitable for X16.

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Hardware
Hardware
1. Kick Start Jumper
When connecting to a battery, without 16VAC connected, the X-Series will
not power up until the kick start jumper has been shorted for a second. This
feature has been included so that if the battery voltage starts fluctuating and
goes below 10.5 volts, without AC, the panel switches off, stopping the
alarm from entering any undesirable states that could compromise the
integrity of the system. When AC is applied the alarm will power up
automatically.
2. Default button & 3. Panel Status LED
To default the panel, physically remove power from the unit and press down the
default button. Replace power whilst still holding down the button. Wait until the
panel status LED flashes once and then release the button.
The status LED indicates the condition of the operating system.
4. Serial Output
The serial output is for connecting the voice module, serial communicators and direct download device.

5. Outputs
Five positively triggered outputs that can supply 80mA of current.
6. Onboard expander connection
The X-Series can be expanded via expanders. Zones 9 to 16 are added by plugging the onboard
expander onto the PCB via this connector.
Onboard Expander
8 pin connect Standoff mounting hole
7. X-Series Connectors
The above figure shows how the X-Series connectors are laid out. Each connection is briefly discussed,
but more detailed information can be found at the end of the manual in appendix 1. Please note that
devices, especially between different manufacturers, are different and the manuals should be thoroughly
read and understood before attempting installation.
7.1 AC Power
The X-Series Alarm Panel requires 16V AC to be connected
to the AC connector on the board. The minimum
recommended transformer is a 16V 32VA, but the
recommended transformer is a 16V 40VA transformer.
7. 2 TX
The Tx connection can supply enough power for radios up to 15 watts.
NOTE: Please use cable with a minimum of 0.5mm copper core
depending on the distance between system and radio transmitter.

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Hardware
7.3 Aux 12V
The X-Series Alarm Panel can supply 750mA of power to all buswired peripherals, including keypads, expanders and remote
receivers, etc.
7.4 Siren
The siren connects directly to the siren output and can drive up to a 30 watt
siren.
Note: The siren must be self-driven and cannot be a speaker, etc.
7.5 Keypad Bus
The devices connected to the bus should be connected in a daisy
chain formation for the best results.
The keypad has a programmable output (PGM). The PGM functions
the same as the onboard programmable outputs, except that it
triggers with 5V and not 12V.
The zone works exactly like a normal zone with an end-of-line
resistor. When using the zone it will replace the zone that it has been
programmed as. E.g. if the keypad zone has been programmed as
zone 10, zone 10 on the board will be shut down and cannot be
used.
7. 6 Zones
No Tamper Tamper
Devices that are connected to zones are divided into two
categories, normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
Some devices have both and the installer can select either,
depending on their preference.
NOTE: The end of line resistor must be 3K3Ω (Ω = ohm)
For a tamper installation a 12kΩ and a 4K7Ω
End of Line 3k3 Ohm 12K & a 4k7 Ohm resistor
resistor

Wireless Device Hardware setup | IDS X Series Training V2.3
7.7 Panic Zone
The dedicated panic zone is end-of-line supervised and for safety reasons,
if this resistor is not detected the system will not arm.
7.8 Telephone Connections
The line coming into the building must go directly to the alarm panel and
then onto any telephones. This will stop any attempt to disrupt
communication by taking the phone off the hook.
Wireless Device Hardware setup
Note: The import thing to remember is that when you have chosen the supervision time of 3Hrs
on the X-Series is to make sure the detectors are also set to 90min.
The correct hardware must be used as the older Duevi wireless detectors will not learn to
the integrated receiver
Duevi Outdoor Wireless Dual Head PIR - 866-DX-OPWF
Note: To learn the dual PIR to the X-Series first get both PIR heads to detect movement then press
the tamper switch when in location 260 sub-location 1 and the correct zone number has
been selected

Reading Time Locations via an LED Keypad
When reading time on an LED keypad remember that time is always in the 24 hour format, (mm:ss,
hh:mm), therefore each digit has four zone LEDs associated to it. Example, zone 1 to 4 belong to digit 1,
zone 5 to 8 belong to digit 2, etc. as shown below. As with calculating any value each zone is given a
value, zone 1/5/9/13 have a value of 1, zone 2/6/10/14 have a value of 2, zone 3/7/11/15 have a value of 4
and zone 4/8/12/16 have a value of 8.

Programming | IDS X Series Training V2.3
Location Definitions
A location is an area of memory that holds a value. Each location is associated to a function that the alarm
needs to operate correctly. These locations have options, other locations or different data that can be
entered, to allow for customisation depending on the property being protected and on the monitoring
company.
1. Standard Location
A standard location is an area of memory that holds a value only.
2. Extended Location
An extended location is a location that has multiple sub-locations within it.
3. Bitmap
A bitmapped location is a location that has more than one option in it and each option needs to be
enabled or disabled depending on the requirements.
Programming Standard Locations
A standard location is an area of memory that holds a value only.
To program a standard location:
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9] [9] [9] [9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer
mode)
2. Then press the keys that represent the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Now enter the data value that needs to be in the location followed by the [*] key
4. You can enter the next location or press the [#] key to exit Installer mode
Programming Extended Locations
Sub-location Method
The sub-location method programs each sub-location within a location individually.
Entering data in the sub-location format:
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9][9][9][9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer mode)
2. Then press the keys that represententer the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Then press the keys that represententer the sub-location number followed by the [*] key
4. Now enter the data value that needs to be in the location followed by the [*] key
5. You can enter the next sub-location or press the [#] key to exit the location
6. You can enter the next location or press the [#] key to exit Installer mode
String Method
The string method programs all sub-locations within a location at once.
Entering data in the string format:
1. Enter the location (E.g. [1] [*] )
2. Now enter the complete string of data (E.g. [0][1] [0][2] [0][4] [0][4] [0][4] [1][0] [0]5] [0][3] [*])
3. When the [*] key is pressed at the end of the string, you will be removed out of the location and the
data saved. If there is an error you will hear 3 error beeps, and will remain in the location to re-enter
the data.

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Programming
Programming Bitmap Locations
A bitmapped location holds many options within a single location that have to be selected or deselected.
Bitmapped locations can also be sub-locations.
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9][9][9][9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer mode)
2. Then press the keys that represent the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Below is a diagram of what you may see when entering a bitmapped location or sub-location
4. To enable or disable an option, press the number corresponding to the option, then press the [*]
key, the number will come on if it was off or go off if it was on.
5. On the LCD keypad when the [*] key is pressed you will be taken to the option you have chosen.
This will show you the current value and if you want to then change the value, press the [*] key
(You can also scroll through the options using the scroll keys [>>] [<<])
6. Continue with any other options you wish to change
7. When complete, press the [#] key to exit the location or sub-location.

Exercise: Defaulting back to factory settings
Location 1 to 8: Zone Type
Location Type: Extended Sub-Location
Can be programmed using the string method.
As can be seen in the table above, Loc [1] has a square bracket around it, indicating that it is a root
location. This means that, zone types can be entered in the string method, for zones 1 to 8 or the sublocation method for all 64 zones.
The keypad will begin to beep until all locations have been reset. The LEDs on the
keypads will flash indicating that they have no IDs and the system is defaulted.
The table on the right shows each location
and the defaults programmed into them at
the time of manufacture.
Zones 1 to 8 are the only zones
programmed with zone types.
All other zones must be programmed and
allocated to a partition, as described below.

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Locations
Zone Types and Their Values
The value indicated in the left column of the table, is the information that must be entered. Each zone must
have a type associated to it, for the alarm to react accordingly when violated. Think of a sports team each
player is given a function, defender, attacker, etc. This allows them to function within the game which is the
same with each zone; their function is what causes them to work correctly for the security that is needed.
Exercise:
PRIMARY ENTRY
/ EXIT ZONE
An Entry/Exit zone is used to determine if the occupants have left the building once
the arming procedure is initiated. Violating an Entry/Exit zone when armed will initiate
the entry delay. If a valid User Code is not entered before the entry delay period
expires, an alarm condition will be registered. Failure to exit through an Entry/Exit zone
after arming will cause the panel to Stay Arm.
This zone may also function as an Entry/Exit zone that is COMMON to two partitions.
In such a case, should a user violate this zone and then disarm his partition, the
OTHER partition will re-arm after the entry delay.
A violation of a Follower zone is ignored during the Entry/Exit delay period (this allows
the user to enter/exit via the Follower zone). A Follower zone will behave as an Instant
zone if the panel is armed and an Entry/Exit zone is not violated prior to violation of the
Follower zone.
Regardless of whether the panel is armed or not, a violation of a Priority zone will
cause the control panel to register a panic condition. This zone type CANNOT be
bypassed.
When the panel is armed the violation of an Instant zone will cause the control panel to
register an alarm condition.
The violation of an Arm/Disarm zone will cause the panel to toggle between (away)
armed and disarmed. It is typical to connect a momentary key-switch, or non-latching
remote control unit to this zone.
SECONDARY
ENTRY / EXIT
ZONE
The Secondary Entry delay will be activated if this zone is violated when the panel is
armed.
The zone will trigger on the first violation of the smoke detector
Violation of a Fire Zone will cause the siren to sound regardless of whether the panel is
armed or not. The siren will sound intermittently (one second on, one second off). For
correct operation, a programmable output programmed as a fire detector power
output must be used to control power to the fire detector.
Violation of this zone will be reported to the base station regardless of whether the
panel is armed or disarmed. If the panel is armed, the siren will be activated.
This works the same as a Panic zone – with the exception that it is able to be
bypassed.
When the panel is armed, violation of a Warning zone will cause the siren to beep. The
violation is logged in the event log but it is not reported to the base station. Warning
zones may be included and will be counted when used as part of the cross-zone
When the panel is armed the violation of an Outdoor Instant zone will cause the panel
to register an alarm condition the only difference compared to instant zone is the
contact ID code sent to the control room.

Global Settings
Location 10: Zone Shutdown Count
Location Type: Standard
This option monitors the zone for the number of times it violates when the system is armed. Once the
number of violations reaches the number entered in this location, the zone is automatically bypassed.
Each partition has an option to enable any zones belonging to the partition that were bypassed due to this
option in locations 221 to 228 depending on the partition.
Valid Range: 1 - 15
Default: 5
Location 11: Programmable Zone Loop Response Time
Location Type: Standard
This is the time that the zone must be violated before the zone will register a violation.
Valid Range: 1 - 255
Default: 2

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Global Settings
The table shows a representation of the values. If the value you want to use is not in this table see below.
To work out a response time:
1. Take a value from 1 to 255.
2. Multiply the value by 0.012
Example: Value of 66 x 0.012 = 792 ms
Location 12: Cross-zone Delay Time
Location Type: Standard
Zones can be set to trigger only after a two sets of options have been fulfilled. These are, Time (Location
12) & number of violations (Location 13), the number of violations must happen in the time set. If this does
not happen the system will reset both.
Cross-zone delay time is the time that the violations must take place within, before a violation is triggered.
Data Format: mmss
Valid Range: 0000 - 5959
Default: 0030
Note: Each zone must be enabled to be part of the cross-zone group. (Location 101 to 164
depending on the zone number)
Example:
If the cross-zone delay time is set for 30 seconds and location 13 cross-zone delay count, below,
is set to 2, then when the zone violates the first time the system begins a 30 second timer waiting
for the second violation. If the second violation does not happen the timer resets waiting for the
next violation to start the countdown. But if the second violation does happen within the 30 second
count down the alarm will be triggered.
Location 13: Cross-zone Delay Count
Location Type: Standard
This is the number of times the zone must violate within the time set in location 12, Cross-zone delay time,
above.
Valid Range: 1 -15
Default: 3
Note: Each zone must be enabled to be part of the cross-zone group. (Location 101 to 164
depending on the zone number)

enable this option
This option will allow the panel to test the battery every 30 min. If the battery is
faulty or low, an event will be logged and with option 8 in location 572 enabled,
a signal will be sent to the control room
This option enables the alarm system to monitor the battery voltage and when it
reaches 10.5V it will shut the system down. When AC is restored the alarm will
switch back on and begin to charge the battery
If the area that is being protected is a high security area this forces a user to
insert their code before zones can be bypassed
This option will allow users to bypass the dedicated onboard panic zone
Cancel panic via

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Communication Settings
Location 46: Reporting Options
Location Type: Bitmap
These options setup how the alarm system will communicate with the telephone system and how many
numbers it will dial to report any events
Depending on the telephone system will depend on the choice. Modern
systems use Tone
Keep Two Separate
Telephone Numbers
24 digits can be entered into a telephone number location. If this is not
enough telephone number locations can be joined to form one 48 bit
number
Dual reporting allows the system to report to two numbers every time an
event happens
Off = will alternate between telephone numbers for the number of dial
attempts.
On = will dial 1st number until all dial attempts are exhausted, then will try the
2nd phone number for the amount of dial attempts
Note: The panel can be programmed to report to 4 different phone numbers. Phone numbers 1 and 2,
3 and 4 are grouped together for dual and split reporting.
Dual reporting is when the alarm will report to both numbers to make sure the signal gets
through to the control room, in case there is a problem reporting on one of the numbers, it will
try the second number and go back to the first after it has succeeded with the second number.
Split reporting is when certain events are programmed to report to certain groups of phone
numbers and each group has two numbers for dual reporting in each group.
Location 47: Number of Dial Attempts
Location Type: Standard
If the alarm cannot report on the first attempt, this location tells the system how many times to try. The
default is 6 attempts, and can be changed to a maximum of 9. (0 will disable dialling)
Valid Range: 1 - 9
Default: 6
Location 48: Download Options
Location Type: Bitmap
The IDS X-Series alarm system can be up / downloaded with IDSwift software over a standard phone line,
via an IDS modem. The following options help the system to deal with incoming calls.
Location 49: Number of rings to answer
Location Type: Standard
When the panel detects this number of rings on a phone line it will automatically pick up the phone if
automatic pickup is enabled in location 48.
Valid Range: 1 - 15
Default: 15
The system monitors the line and if the phone rings twice and stops, then 10
seconds later rings again, the panel will answer before any other device that
may be on the line
By pressing and holding down the [8] key for 3 seconds will force the alarm
system to pick up the telephone line
By default if the telephone line rings 15 times the alarm will pick up the line.

the correct customer. It is by default a four digit number but can be changed in location 24 to a six digit
number.
Exercise:
Enter an account code 0123
Note: If the account code is 0000 no reporting will take place. This also allows you to configure
which partitions report and which do not.
Location 71 to 78: Secondary Account Codes
Location Type: Standard
The secondary account code is used if double dual report dial is enabled and the second telephone
dialleddial must have a different account code to the primary account code.
Note: If the account code is 0000 no reporting will take place. This also allows you to configure
which partitions report and which do not.

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Zone Properties
Zone Properties
Location 101 to 164: Setting Zone Properties
Location Type: Bitmap
1. Zone properties are individually setup for each zone
2. There are 8 options that can be chosen
This option allows the monitoring of devices, even when the alarm
is not active, for any interference, Note requires double end of line
resistors.
This is when the device has to be triggered a predetermined
number of times within a set time period before the alarm will be
activated. Also known as double knock. (I.e. The zone must trigger
twice in 20 seconds)
This option monitors the zone for violations and if the set number of
violations is reached whilst the alarm is on, the zone will be
bypassed. (There is an option to try and re-enable the zone when the
alarm does its auto test, if the zone is not violated, under extra partition
options. Locations 221 to 228)
This will not set off an audible alarm, but will alert the armed
response company if the alarm has been configured to do so
This will cause the keypad to beep 5 times when violated in an
unarmed state. This can also be done via the user menu
Enable or disable the zone from being bypassed
9 Profile 1
10 Profile 2
11 Profile 3
12 Profile 4
This is to allocate the zone to a stay profile so that if that profile is
activated the zone will be bypassed. A stay profile is used to
deactivate certain zones when the alarm is active, allowing
movement within those zones. Different, or the same zones, can be
allocated to 4 different profiles allowing for different situations that
may arise. (This can also be set via the user menu)
13 Profile 1
14 Profile 2
15 Profile 3
16 Profile 4
Again this is an option to allocate zones to a buzz profile. A buzz
zone only works in the stay mode, allowing the zone to be violated
for 30 seconds before triggering the alarm. During the 30 seconds,
the keypad will sound the buzzer as an audible warning to alert the
person that the zone has been violated. As with stay profiles,
different or the same zones can be allocated to 4 different profiles
allowing for different situations that may arise. (This can also be set
via the user menu.) Buzz profile 1 is associated with stay profile 1,
etc.
Exercise:
Zone 16 is a panic zone, let‟s make it a silent panic so that the siren will not trigger alerting the
intruder, but will send the signal to the monitoring company.

Partition Options
The X-Series alarm panels have eight partitions that can have a number of zones and users allocated to
them. A partition is a separately controlled group of zones. Zones can be unique to the partition or can be
shared between partitions for areas that are common.
Location 201 to 208: Placing Zones into a Partition
Location Type: Bitmap
By default only the first eight zones are placed into partition one and any added zones must be allocated
to a partition.
Valid Range: 01 - 64
Exercise:Zones 10 to 16 need to be programmed into partition 2
To allocate all the zones that we configured in sections c and d

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Partition Options
Location 211 to 218: Partition Configuration
Location Type: Bitmap
These options are to set how the system must behave when the partition needs to be armed.
Instant arm allows the alarm to arm without an exit delay
When using a zone to arm or disarm this will enable or
disable the alarm to arm without an exit delayexit delay
This is to enable/disable the pressing of the 1 key to
start the arm cycle instead of inserting a user code
This is to enable/disable the pressing of the 5 key to stay
arm
Auto Stay Arm if No Exit Zone is
Triggered
When arming with a user code and no entry/exit zone is
triggered then the alarm will automatically arm in stay
mode
Auto Stay Arm if No Exit Zone is
Triggered When Arming with a Keyswitch
When arming with a remote transmitterusing an
arm/disarm zone and no entry/exit zone is triggered then
the alarm will automatically arm in stay mode
This will bypass any triggered zone allowing the system
to be armed even though there are triggered zones
This enables or disables the ability for a user to bypass
faulty zones using the 9 key.
Arm with Zones in the Entry Route
Violated
This allows movement to take place in a follower zone
and the entry / exit zone to be violated when you are
about to arm
When the alarm arms in the away mode the siren will
give one toot to indicate that it has armed
When the alarm disarms from being away armed it will
toot twice
This will silence the keypad when the entry zone is
triggered to start the entry cycle
This will silence the keypad when the alarm starts to arm
This option will lock the alarm system, until the installers
code has been entered, when an alarm has occurred.
When enabled the alarm will automatically disarm and
the time set in locations 189
This is a global enable or disable of opening &
closing user reporting. By default all users are
enabled by default. Enabling this option and all
user codes will begin reporting opens and closes
Exercise:

Keypad Configuration | IDS X Series Training V2.3
Location 241: Keypad Display Start Zone
Location Type: Extended
There is a sub-location for each of the 8 keypads.
The LED keypad can only show 16 zones at a time, therefore on an LED keypad you can set the keypad to
start at any zone.
This allows you to set what physical zone the LED keypad will display as zone 1. For example, by setting
the keypad to start at zone 20, zone 1, printed on the keypad, will now represent the physical zone 20.
Exercise: Let us now make keypad number 2 start displaying from zone 9.
Default: 01
Valid range: 01 – 64
Location 242: Keypad zone
Location Type: Extended
There is a sub-location for each of the 8 keypads.
On each keypad is a physical zone which can be mapped to any zone on the alarm, it does not have to be
physically connected. The physical zone that the keypad zone is mapped to, on the panel or expander, will
be switched off. For example if I make keypad 3‟s zone, zone number 8. Zone 8 on the panel will be no
longer be in operation, but the zone on the keypad will display and report as zone 8.
Default: 00
Valid range: 01 - 64
Exercise:
If not in installer mode enter into installer
To enable the keypad zone go to location 242

Location 251 to 258: Keypad Options
Location Type: Bitmap
Each keypad can be set with the following options:
The keypad will timeout
back to its default partition
after it has been used to
view another partition
If a keypad is made global, i.e. The keypad will be able to view
other partitions on the system. This option will automatically
return the keypad to its home partition which was programmed
into location 240
If this is enabled, the keypad will switch all its LEDs off after the
time programmed into location 22. Press any key to wake it up.
If this is enabled the keypad can view any partition on the
system. This option ties in with option 1.
If the keypad is set to global this option determines if the user
sees all zones, ON or only the zones that belong to the partition
Shows all partitions if any of the following keys are pressed:
1-Quick Arm Key, 5-Stay Arm Key, 6-Stay and Go Key
This option will ask for a profile number when the stay key,[5] is

Note: Older wireless hardware devices will not work with the X-Series, Duevi integration. Please
make sure that you have the correct devices.
IDS & Duevi integration PCB:
1. DIP switch operation
The Dipswitch currently has only two operations. The first is to set the device address on the XSeries bus. This is done in binary the same as was done for the wired expander save for one
difference. That is that these expanders each cater for 16 zones and not 8 like the wired expander.
Dip 1 Dip 2 Dip 1&2 Dip 3 Dip 5 Dip 6
Zones 1 – 16 Zones 17 – 32 Zones 33 – 48 Zones 49 – 64 PGM 1 PGM 2
RF JAM Supervision Loss
Programmable Output
Note: When dip switch 5 and 6 are:
OFF the outputs are then programmable.
ON the outputs are by default set to output 1 RF jam and output 2 supervision loss
2. Default
The second operation is a standalone default feature. If all Dip-switches are ON during power-up
then the unit will default. Please power down after, set appropriate address and power up to
resume normal operation.
LED operation
There are 3 LEDs on the board marked “MODE”, “RF RX” and “STATUS”.
STATUS: LED that will indicate whether the receiver is connected and communicating.
ON indicates good bus communication with the system.
RF RX: LED that will indicate when the receiver received a message from a learnt detector
MODE: Indicates current operating errors. Errors are indicated much the same as the wired expander.
If the LED is ON continuously then there are no errors. However if there are errors it will start pulsing
the error number. These error pulses will be separated by a 1sec pause with the LED off.
Pulse error number:
1. Duevi receiver module not responding
2. No activity on the X-Series serial bus
3. No X-Series messages detected

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Wireless
4. No messages for this peripheral detected from X-Series
5. Not used
6. Expander not yet registered on the X-Series
7. Expander tamper violated

Triggering Outputs
Outputs are normally used to trigger communication devices like radios, with a voltage. All outputs on the
panel and expanders are positive 12 volt outputs. The output can be either pulsed or latched.
Definition:
i. Pulse is when the output will go from no voltage up to 12 volts and with no intervention goes back
to no voltage. Like a spring if you compress it and then leave it alone and it will automatically start
uncompressing
ii. Latch is when the output will go from zero to 12 volts and stay there until something else tells it to
go back to zero volts, like a light switch.
Defaults:

IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Triggering Outputs
The X-Series alarm panel has 5 physical outputs on the main board, each expander has 2 and the X64
system can have up to 6 expanders. Each of the possible 8 keypads has an output. Below shows the
number assigned to each of the available outputs.
When allocating an output to an event, an action must also be entered so that the system knows what to
do when triggered.
The action can be either a pulse or latch as discussed before. Below are the values for the actions.
From 0V to 12V back to 0V
From 12V to 0V back to 12V
When entering the value into the location follow the following steps:
1. Enter the output number that is to be triggered. [0][5]
2. Then enter the action to be performed. [0][2]
3. Only once the output number and the action have been entered press [*]
Outputs can be triggered by many different events and we will discuss the most common first.

Zone triggered outputs
A zone can be set to trigger an output when it is violated. If the zone is a zone that will only trigger when
the alarm is armed, then it will only trigger the output when all conditions are met. For example, an instant
zone will only trigger when the system is armed, but a 24-hour zone is always active, therefore, even if
the system is unarmed and the zone is triggered the output will trigger.

Standard User Functions | IDS X Series Training V2.3
Standard User Functions
The following are the functions that all users can use.
Away Arm
When the system is armed in away mode, all zones are active and ready to trigger if an intrusion is
detected.
The following zone types work a little different when the system is armed.
1. Entry / exit.
a. When arming, it is only armed once the system has completed the exit time out, giving
everyone time to exit the building.
b. When armed, and the zone is triggered, the system begins the entry countdown giving you
time to disarm
2. Follower.
a. This zone is never active during the arming or disarming time.
b. If the entry / exit zones are not triggered then this zone is active.
How to away arm the system
1. Press and hold the [1] key until the exit delay starts, and then leave the premises via the entry / exit
zone.
2. Enter a user code, the exit delay will begin, and exit via an entry / exit zone. (Eg. [2][3][3][2])
NOTE: If the entry / exit zone is not triggered, the system by default will automatically arm in the
stay mode. (This can be changed in the installer mode.)
3. Use a remote transmitter.
Stay Arm
This option is when someone is inside the premises and the system must be armed, but certain zones
must not trigger when someone enters that area. Stay arm, when setup, will automatically turn off (bypass)
those areas that will have movement once armed.
How to stay arm:
1. Press and hold the [5] key until the system arms
2. Enter a user code and do not exit
How to create stay zones
A stay zone is a zone that will automatically be bypassed when the system arms in the stay mode.
Press and hold the [3] stay key until the beep
Enter each zone to be bypassed until complete, then press the [#]
key to exit
[5][*][1][7][*][1][8][*][2][1][*].....[#]
There are 4 stay profiles so that different zones can be bypassed depending on different scenarios that
may arise.

Toggling between the 2 stay profiles, can be done in three ways:
1. Toggle method (Note: only if there is more than one profile with stay zones)
a. Press and hold the [5] key until the system arms. (The system will arm in the profile that it
last armed in.)
b. Press and hold the [5] key again until the beep. The zones will change.
NOTE:
By pressing the [5] key in this manner will toggle through all active profiles
c. Press and hold the [MODE] key until the beep, then press the [2] key followed by the [*]
key and finally the [PARTITION NUMBERSTAY PROFILE NUMBER] followed by the [*] key.
2. Selection method

Alarm Memory
The alarm memory will hold information from the last time it was armed. When the alarm is armed again
the memory clears and will store information from that alarm system arm period.
The alarm memory holds information on:
2. Violated zone
a. Zones that triggered while the system was armed
3. Bypassed zones
a. Zones that where bypassed when the system armed, making them ineffective.
4. Tampered zones
a. Zones that someone may have opened and messed about with to stop it functioning
correctly.
5. Event log
a. This is a history of all system messages, going back a thousand events. Once the system
reaches the thousandth event it will start over writing from the oldest event.
User Codes
1. 128 user codes can be programmed into the system.
2. The only code pre-programmed into the system is User 1 which is a master code, and it is
defaulted to 1234.

Adding Remote Transmitters
The system can be installed with four remote receivers and each will be allocated an ID. This is very
important as learning a remote transmitter must be done to a specific remote receiver.
There are two ways to learn remote transmitters to a user code:
1. Standard method menu option 20
a. The standard method allocates default settings to each transmitter taught
2. Advanced method menu option 21
a. Most setting have to be done during the programming of the remote
