Section [521]: Option [3]

This option will either enable or disable event
reporting. With option 

[3]

 on in section 

[521]

 event

reporting will be enabled.  When an event (e.g. open
zone) occurs in the system, the control panel verifies if
a report code was programmed in the section
corresponding to the event. If a report code is
programmed, the control panel will dial the central
station telephone number defined by the 

Event Call

Direction 

feature. When the central station answers,

the control panel will transmit the system account
code, followed by the programmed report code.

A report code is a 2-digit or 1-digit hexadecimal
value, consisting of digits from 0 to F. Each section
from 

[600]

 to 

[702]

 represents a set of four specific

events. Each of these events can be programmed
with a 1-digit or 2-digit report code. For a
comprehensive list of the events and their relevant
sections, please refer to the 

“Digiplex Programming

Guide”

. Please note that only the Ademco Slow,

Silent Knight, Sescoa and Pager Formats support 1-
digit report codes.

When a specific event occurs, the control panel will
send the programmed report code to the central station.
The method of report code transmission is defined by
the following two items: 

Reporting Formats  

(see section

9.5) and 

Event Call Direction 

(see section 9.6). These

two items define how and where the report codes are
transmitted. If you are using the Ademco CID or SIA
formats an 

Auto Report Code Programming

 feature is

available. Using this feature, sections 

[600]

 to 

[702]

 do

not have to be manually programmed (see section
9.13). For more information, see 

Reporting Formats

 in

section  9.5. The following sub-sections provide a brief
description of the events that the control panel can
report.

9.2.1 Arming Report Codes

Sections [600] to [617]

A report code can be programmed for each of the
sixty-four User Access Codes and 8 keyswitch

send the appropriate report code to the central
station, identifying which access code or keyswitch
zone was used to arm the partition(s).

9.2.2 

Special Arming Report Codes
