The status channel might have one of the following conditions:
1 = DURESS (For Duress Plus Channels 9-15 Only)
2 = OPENING
3 = BYPASS (For Channels 1-8 Only)
4 = CLOSING
5 = SUPERVISORY/TROUBLE (For Channels 1-8 Only)
6 = SYSTEM STATUS:
• AC LOSS in Channel 1
• LOW BATTERY in Channel 2
• TIME SET in Channel 3
• LOG CLEAR in Channel 3
• LOG 50% FULL in Channel 3
• LOG 90% FULL in Channel 3
• LOG OVERFLOW in Channel 3
• POWER ON RESET in Channel 4
• WALK-TEST START, END in Channel 8
7 = NORMAL ALARM STATUS (Channels 1-8 Only)
9 = TEST REPORT
Explanation of Channels 9-15:
If there is a 1 in the status channel, and:
1 in the 1st location = Duress
1 in Channels 9-15 = Zone alarm on those channels
3 in Channels 9-15 = Restore on those channels
6 in Channels 9-15 = Previously reported alarm–not restored
A typical high speed report may look like this:
1234 5115 5555 7 (Acct #1234 with alarms on channels 2 and 3)
1234 5555 1555 1 (Acct #1234 with alarm on channel 12)
LIMITATIONS
1. When using ADEMCO High Speed, remember there are only 15 channels available, plus
a duress channel. If more than 15 zones are being used, they will have to share channels.
2. With ADEMCO High Speed reporting, channels 9-15 cannot report troubles or bypasses.
Use these channels for zones that will not report these conditions.
3. Only user numbers 1-15 can be uniquely reported with Open/Close reports in ADEMCO
High Speed.
Loading Communication Defaults
To help expedite the installation, the system provides 4 different communication defaults
(Low Speed, ADEMCO Express, ADEMCO High Speed and ADEMCO's Contact ID.
You may load communications defaults at any time. However, it is recommended that the
panel be defaulted first (*97) only if no other programming has been done. If other
programming has already been done, there is no need to default the panel.
