Section 4: Programming Options
System Account Number
The system account number is used to identify the alarm sys-
tem when communicating system events to the central mon-
itoring station. The system account number can be either 4
or 6 digits long. Program a 6-digit code only when using the
SIA reporting format. SIA uses this account number for all
partitions and system events. All other reporting formats use
a 4-digit system account number to report system main-
tenance (e.g., low battery, zone fault) and test transmission
events. To program a 4-digit system account number, enter
4 digits followed by FF.
Note:
This field is mandatory for communication with the
central monitoring station.
Default:
FFFFFF (disabled)
Valid range:
000001 to FFFFFF (Hexadecimal)
Event Reporting Format
Use this programming option to assign a communicator
format for transmitting zone alarms, tampers, faults and other
signals to the central monitoring station
The following communicator formats are available:
Contact ID
Each of the digits indicate specific information about the sig-
nal. For example, if zone 1 is an entry/exit point, the event
code contains [34]. The central monitoring station would
receive the following:
*BURG - ENTRY/EXIT - 1 where the “1” indicates which
zone went into alarm.
SIA Format - Level 2 (Hard Coded)
The SIA communication format used in this product follows
the level 2 specifications of the SIA Digital Communication
Standard - October 1997. This format sends the account
code along with its data transmission. The transmission
appears similar to the following at the receiver:
N ri1 BA 01
N = New Event
ri1 = Partition /Area Identifier
BA = Burglary Alarm
01 = Zone 1
A system event uses the Area Identifier ri00.
Default:
SIA
Valid range:
SIA, CID
Bell Squawk on Arming
With this option enabled, the iotega chirps the sirens briefly
at full volume when the system is successfully armed. The
following options are provided to customize this option:
None: Sirens do not chirp when the system is armed.
All RF: Sirens chirp when armed by any wireless device.
RF Wireless Key: Sirens chirp only when armed by a wire-
less key.
RF Keypad: Sirens chirp only when armed by a wirefree
keypad.
Default:
RF Wireless Key
Valid range:
None, All RF, RF Wireless Key, RF Keypad
Chime on Zone Opening
When this option is enabled, the door chime sounds each
time an appropriately configured zone is opened.
The Door Chime attribute must be set to ON for every zone
that requires a chime on opening.
Default:
Enabled
Valid range:
Enabled, Disabled
Chime on Zone Closing
When this option is enabled, the door chime sounds each
time an appropriately configured zone is closed.
The Door Chime attribute must be set to ON for every zone
that requires a chime on opening.
Default:
Disabled
Valid range:
Enabled, Disabled
Trouble Beeps Are Silent
When this option is enabled, trouble beeps are sounded for
one minute and then auto silenced for any trouble condition.
For Fire/CO troubles, trouble beeps sound every 10 seconds
for the duration of the trouble.
If the system is armed at the time that the trouble occurs, the
indication is auto silenced. When the system is disarmed,
the trouble beeps sound for 1 minute but can be silenced by
pressing any key. Once silenced, the beeps will not restart.
If a trouble has occurred and has been silenced, and
another trouble of the same type occurs, the trouble beeps
restart. (e.g., Zone tamper on Zone 1 is silenced, Zone
tamper on Zone 2 restarts trouble beeps).
If disabled, the system announces troubles through the
keypad buzzer every 10 seconds. Pressing any key on the
keypad silences the trouble beeps; however, new troubles
