6) When this feature is to be available, ensure

a communication session with the panels is

running that is set to “Stay Connected”.

Requirements and Limitations

 This is supported for up to 30 panels at a

time that are all in the same “Panel Group”.

Panels can be hardwired together, or

communicate with the PC ‘via IP’ across a

network.

Related: “Panel Groups and Connection Settings”

For details on wiring, refer to the technical manual(s)

for your panels. To set up an IP connection, refer to

your IP Connectivity Guide. Tip: Manuals can also

typically be found in PDF format on your Director

software CD.

 Panels must have firmware version 4.42 or

greater.

 If an area is set to “Forced Arming” for a

panel that has an insecure sensor, the area

will arm, and then immediately go into alarm.

This also applies if “Bypass” is used where

any non-bypassable points are not secure.

These false alarms can be prevented by

setting the area’s “Arm warning mode” to

“Warning tones continuous and blocked

arming”, although any such areas would not

be armed in this event.

 The feature will function only if the panels

are presently in communication with the

Director software (“Stay Connected”).

 Each panel will require at least one keypad

to view status and deal with all possible

alarm situations that may arise.

 When arming through a keypad, the user

must select “Site”. (Selecting “Local” will

affect only the panel that the keypad is

connected to).

Expansion Modules

Expansion Modules and Related

Settings

Expansion modules are devices that provide

support for additional inputs, outputs, and/or

special features. Some examples include:

 System LCD keypads (different types—some

with built-in reader);

 Door Controllers (typically supporting

2 doors / 4 readers);

 Elevator / Lift Controller (2 cabs, with one

reader per cab; max. 124 floors);

 Point Expander (8 or 16 input points;

and 4 programmable outputs);

 RF / Wireless Point Expansion (32 inputs);

 Fire Supervision module;

 Map/Graphic Annunciator;

 High-security comms / printer module

(uses Mark7 / DVACS service in Canada).

 Power supply: Intelligent monitorable power

supplies;

For each panel, up to 24 modules can be set up (or up

to 60 suite-security keypads), including support for up to

32 doors.

Converted TDC/PDC Door Controller Modules: Up to

10 (combined) per system panel.

Note: To initially set up a system module, you will need

to know its serial number. This is typically hand-written

on a small sticker on the circuit board).

Attention: Some modules (HSC/printer module,

RF/wireless module, and Smart POD) require additional

programming locally, through a system keypad. For

details, refer to the commissioning or hardware guide

for your system.
