Area Option Descriptions
AC Power / Low Battery Sounder Alert
If enabled, the panel will beep the Code Pad sounder upon arming or disarming if the AC power is missing or a low battery
has been detected.
Answering Machine Defeat
If enabled, the DL900 software calling the panel will ring (briefly), hang up and ring (briefly) again. The sequence will be
repeated as many times as programmed in Feature 13
. Answering machines usually answer calls after a long ring period.
The Answering Machine Defeat feature prevents the answering machine from answering the call from the DL900 software.
Bypass Code
If enabled, the panel will require a valid user code to be entered during the zone bypass function.
Cancel
If enabled, the panel will send a ‘Cancel’ report when the system is disarmed by a valid user after an alarm activation. The
cancel code followed by the user number.
Code Pad Activated Panics
The panel has three Code Pad activated panics that will send reports to the central station: Fire, Medical, and Code Pad
Panic. The Fire key will activate the steady (Fire) siren, the Medical key will sound the Code Pad (the Medical key can be
set for silent activation in system options), and the Code Pad Panic can be programmed to be silent or audible (sound
siren).
Code Pad Tamper
If enabled, the panel will disable the Code Pad for 60 seconds and communicate a tamper signal to the central station if 30
key-presses are entered without producing a valid code. The Code Pad sounder will remain functional.
Exit Error
If enabled, the panel will send an ‘Exit Error Report’ if an entry/exit zone is faulted at the instant the exit delay expires. This
report will be sent along with the user number that armed the system, if the panel is not disarmed before the entry delay
expires. The alarm report will also be sent. Even if this option is not enabled, the siren will sound if any entry/exit zone is
faulted at the instant the entry delay expires. This option is enabled by default, but needs to be set to report in Feature 9 for
proper operation.
Force Arming
When enabled, the panel can be Force Armed with zones faulted. Under this condition, if a force arm zone is not secure,
the ‘Ready’ LED will flash. At the end of the exit delay, these zones will become bypassed. If these zones become secured
any time during the arming cycle, they will be un-bypassed and remain active in the system. If ‘Bypass Report’ is enabled,
the force arming zones can be programmed to report bypass when they are Force Armed (default), or to not report bypass
even if ‘Bypass Report’ is enabled (refer to system options).
Group Bypass
A designated group of zones can be programmed to bypass by pressing [Bypass]-[0]-[0]-[Bypass] prior to arming.
Group Toggle
If enabled, the panel can toggle the Group Bypass zone in and out of bypass mode by pressing the [Bypass] key. This
option if active when ever the panel is in either Partial or Full Arm mode.
LED Extinguish
This option will extinguish all LEDs on the Code Pad, except the ‘Power’ LED, after 60 seconds without a key-press.
Pressing any numeric key will illuminate all LEDs.
One Key Partial Mode Disarm
If enabled, the panel can be disarmed from the Partial Mode by pressing the Partial key.
If disabled, the panel requires a full user code to be entered to disarm the system.
Partial Mode
Partial mode allows system owners to arm only designated partial zones (e.g. downstairs, front doors, garage), bypassing
all non-partial zones (e.g. upstairs bedroom). Partial mode encourages system owners to use their alarm system more
frequently when the premise is occupied. When armed in the ‘Partial’ mode, the opening of any zones designated as ‘Partial
Mode zone’ will initiate the code pad sounder and start the Partial Mode entry delay before creating an alarm. All other
zones will be bypassed during Partial mode. To arm this area in Partial Mode, press the [Partial] key on the code pad.
Quick Arm Option
The panel has a one button ‘Quick Arm’ option that can be used to arm the system by pressing the [ON] key on the Code
Pad. If closing reports are sent, the user code will be 98.
Recent Closing
If enabled, the panel will send a ‘Recent Closing Report’ to the central station if an alarm occurs within 5 minutes after the
panel is armed. The user number that armed the system will also be sent. This option is enabled by default, but needs to
be set to report in Feature 9 for proper operation.
