Chap 4. Programming Options
CAPTAIN-i is supplied with pre-programmed default parameters (see section “ 0” on page
44). In general, for a standard installation, there is no need to change these parameters, except for those that are user-specific, such as telephone numbers. Some of the default parameters are:
Zone #1 delayed Zone #2 entry delay Entrance delay of 20 seconds and exit delay of 60 seconds
Default parameters can be changed in one of 4 ways:
1. Manual programming using the LCD keypad;
2. Quick loading from the PRG-22 programmer, which connects to an RXN-400/410 keypad and lets you program one of four different, predefined parameter groups;
3. COMAX Up/Download remote programming with a PC and modem;
4. Local loading with a computer and COMAX.
4.1 Remote Programming with COMAX
The CAPTAIN-i can be programmed remotely via a telephone line using PIMA’s COMAX software.
COMAX is upload/download & control software and it enables programming of all parameters, memory check, arming, disarming, etc. A complete description and explanations are in the COMAX separate guide.
4.2 PRG-22: Local Programmer
This type of programming can be done only via the installer menu and an LCD Keypad. Connect the PRG-22 to the designated connector according to the following drawing. In RXN-400/410 LCD keypad models the RJ-11 connector is internal, on the PCB’s upper left side.
IMPORTANT! Do not connect the PRG-22 to a LED keypad. It may damage the programmer

. Enter the desired zone sensitivity. [
With the CAPTAIN-i, you may set the sensitivity level of each zone separately. Zone sensitivity: The length of opening time of the magnet/detector after which the zone causes an alarm. For a period less than this length of time, the opening is ignored by the system. The minimum length of time that can be set is 0.05 sec. (50 milliseconds) and the maximum length of time is 12.75 seconds. The zone sensitivity is set in increments of 0.05 sec. (50 milliseconds).
For example, if you wish Zone 1 to respond to any opening longer than 200 milliseconds (=50 milliseconds x 4) and Zone 2 to respond to any opening longer than 400 milliseconds (=50 milliseconds x 8), you program Zone 1 for sensitivity 4, and Zone 2 for sensitivity 8

5.2 Communication Parameters
5.2.1 Communication with the monitoring station
CAPTAIN-i enables event reporting to the Central Monitoring Station (CMS) by telephone, GSM, and/or radio.
A unique code can be programmed for each event in accordance with Monitoring Station and/or customer requirements, such as a response code to tampering with the box or to define zone number 5 as the zone connected to a Distress button. In the latter case, it is possible to program the Monitoring Station reporting code, telephone and/or radio, to report a distress event instead of a regular alarm by programming the appropriate code.
Note: Each of the reports mentioned above depends upon the corresponding option in the technician menu, i.e. for each type of event it is possible to include or exclude reporting to the Monitoring Station. For example, it is possible to cancel the reporting of arming/disarming using the phone communicator leaving radio reporting unchanged. If a fault event is reported to the Monitoring Station, the restoration of serviceability will also be reported as an event. For example, in the case of a low-battery fault, after the battery is re-charged “Battery restore” will be reported to the Monitoring Station.
Each system/partition can be programmed with an account ID number of 1 to 9999 as well as the format types for telephone reporting and long-range radio reporting.
5.2.2 Telephone communication with the CMS
Four telephone numbers to the Monitoring Station can be programmed, and the order of connection attempts to the Monitoring Station will be in the same order as programmed. Upon an unsuccessful connection attempt the system will try the next telephone number and so on until connection is established. When connection is established, the system will transmit to the Monitoring Station all events that accumulated until that time.
5.2.3 GSM communication with the CMS
The GSM communicate with the CMS in the same manner the telephone communicator does with the following optional differences:
When programmed, the GSM transmitter will use the account ID of the radio
channel
When programmed, the GSM transmitter will add the ‘area code for GSM’
number as programmed in the GSM programming screen
5.2.4 Radio communication with the CMS
The CAPTAIN-i enables radio (wireless) communication to the Monitoring Station. The communication configuration is defined at installation.
The reporting options and their control are similar to those for telephone communication with the Monitoring Station (see the preceding section). A separate account number to the radio Monitoring Station may be set up.
Captain-i, Installation Guide 24
5.2.5 Subscriber ID for partitions and/or double
report
In this screen you program subscriber IDs for partitions and/or Double Report.
The CAPTAIN-i allows each Monitoring Station subscriber to be given a personal customer ID for telephone communication and a number for radio communication. These numbers, which can be the same number or two different ones, identify the subscriber upon communication with the Monitoring Station. A second personal customer ID can be programmed for double reporting, i.e. reporting to two Monitoring Stations.
In case partitions are used, the second programmed ID will be used for the second partition.

5.2.7 Ack. time & transmission count
In this section you can program the number of transmissions for the long-range radio channel. The default number is 5.
ACK time (in seconds) is the time that the system waits for a response from the Monitoring Station (“Handshake”). Minimum waiting time: 20 seconds. Maximum waiting time: 60 seconds.

CAPTAIN-i is capable of calling the Monitoring Station and reporting various types of events. It is possible to program four different numbers (up to 16 digits per number). The system begins to call the first number. If the connection is unsuccessful, the system will try (8 trials) to dial the other numbers, until a successful connection is made or until eight trials have been made. If a successful connection is not established, a Communication Fault is recorded in the memory and FAULT Led will blink.
Note: If dialing is done through a switchboard and there is a digit to get an outside line (usually 9), a 1-second delay between the dialing of that digit and the rest of the
number may be programmed by entering
. For example, if the number to be dialed via a switchboard is 3.586.9313, the number should be programmed as follows: 9*35869313
Captain-i Installation Guide 29
After setting “Telephone 4,” the display will show “Pre Number.” The installer may program one or more digits to be dialed before all the above four Monitoring Station telephone numbers. Programming this screen increases the number of digits available for the Monitoring Station telephone numbers from 16 to 22.

Chap 6. Faults and Troubleshooting
6.1 General
The CAPTAIN-i possesses many operating parameters and options. Some of the system operations depend on the manner of programming, and if one of the parameters is not programmed correctly, the operation depending on it will not be executed. This chapter describes the faults displayed on the keypad and their meanings, as well as various problems that may be encountered due to improper programming, and options for troubleshooting the faults that can occur due to incorrect installation and/or programming.
6.2 Faults Displayed on the LCD Keypad
In the event of a system fault, the “Fault” lamp flashes. On the LCD keypad, a description of the fault appears on the left side of the upper line in the display area. On the SEVEN SEGMENT keypad, a description of the fault or faults appears (and remains) in the alphanumeric display area. The following are the faults displayed when they occur:

Captain-i Installation Guide 39
6.3 Retrieving the Primary Code
To assure maximum protection and security, it is not possible to program the system without entering the Primary Code. When the Primary Code is not known, however (if it is forgotten, for example), the following operations must be performed:
1. Disconnect mains AC voltage from the system
2. Open the control unit box
3. Disconnect the battery
4. Wait several seconds, connect the battery
5. Wait until the display with the clock appears on the keypad
6. Enter the factory default Primary Code (5555)
7. Program a new Primary Code (it is not possible to see the old code)
8. Close the control unit box
9. Connect mains AC voltage
Note: After battery connection the system enables access by means of the factory code for 30 seconds only. If you do not gain entry in this time, repeat the operations from the beginning. The above procedure is to be followed also if the technician code has been forgotten (unless the technician code was programmed to begin with digit 0)

Indicates either a short line or an open line and can appear only if the zone is EOL protected. The flashing red failure light will be accompanied by an indication, “F”, above the zone number on the LCD display
KEYBOARD NOT CONNECTED This is an indication that there is no data transfer between the control panel and the
keypad. Check the following:
A proper connection between the “OUT” terminal block on the control panel
and the input to the keypad via the yellow wire
The Jumper at the back of the keypad is set over the leftmost and middle
pins
Low DC voltage indication if the PCB is connected without AC. If this is the
case replace the battery
Check for malfunction in the keypad and replace keypad if necessary
Replace the control panel PCB if the problem persists
If there are several keypads connected to the control panel and all show the same indication then either the control panel PCB is malfunctioning or there is a short on one of the wires.
Telephone Indicates no dial tone for the telephone line connected to the control panel. This fault
appears if there was no dial tone the last time the system checked the line. If this fault appeared when the system was in disarmed mode, it will continue to
appear even when the line returns, unless there is a telephone line check in the OFF state.
To remove the fault indication in this case, arm and then disarm the system. No telephone communication to Monitoring Station, including while in test mode (the
display shows “communic.”)
This indication appears if the CAPTAIN-i phone communicator cannot transfer reports to the Monitoring Station. Possible reasons for this: phone failure or line is not connected. Check the following:
The telephone line is properly connected to the IN inputs on the terminal block
In “Config 1” the P for telephone is programmed with “+
At least one telephone number is programmed for the Monitoring Station
The telephone Customer ID for the Monitoring Station is different than 0
The station telephone ID corresponds to the Monitoring Station
