 SIP / HSC  (Central Monitoring
Facility)
- SIP Mode and SIP Account (≥V4.4): These
settings pertain to reporting to a central
monitoring facility through an IP (LAN/WAN)
connection or an HSC module (Canada).
SIP Account (IP only): This is obtained from your
central station rep.
SIP / HSC-IP reporting
: IP-based reporting can be
through a standard IP connection, or via HSC-IP for
secure communications. The use of HSC-IP protocol
is determined by the panel firmware, IP module
type/firmware, and the IP module setup.
More: "IP Connectivity"
A Bell 103
(300 baud) connection can be used as
backup if desired (see "Mode" under SIA/CID ;
previous/above). With SIP reporting, an HSC/printer
module can be used only for printer functions.
SIP Reporting and Auto-Dial-Out to VEREX Director
:
With SIP reporting to a central monitoring facility, the
"Reporting Mode" (see previous/above) is supported
only through an "IP" connection. With a modem
connection to a Director PC, alarms / events will be
transmitted each time a connection is initiated through
this software.
- SIP baud rate: The communications speed
for reporting to a central monitoring facility via
IP (SIP reporting).
- Full report by area: Reporting will be limited
to "Alarms Only" for areas set for this.
Otherwise, the "Reporting" setting for each
area will be ignored, and reporting will include
"All Events" for all areas.
Messages to be reported for each area: Refer to
"Central Station", "Reporting" under “Areas and
Related Settings", ÖIntrusion .
- HSC timeout: The duration for an
unsuccessful communication attempt through
a high-security module (Canada) before it will
be considered an HSC comms failure.
- HSC SIP Autoset: Future Use.
 Paging  (Signal a Numeric Pager)
UK/ACPO: This feature is not supported with
UK/ACPO operation.
- Paging Mode: Future Use. This allows
enabling or disabling numeric paging, and
selecting the format/protocol to be used.
None: Numeric paging disabled.
Numeric semadigit w/handshake
: North America with
handshaking.
Blind SemaDigit
: North America without handshaking.
SemaPhone
: Common for Europe.
- Pager Phone Number: This is the phone
number of the (numeric) pager to be notified
when any of the paging outputs are triggered.

Select Outputs: Configuration, ÖSystem, ÖI/O
Mapping 
 I/O Mapping  (under "General System
Settings...", previous).
The specific events to trigger the pager are defined
under "Configuration, ÖOutput Points" (i.e., the
settings for the outputs that have been reserved for
numeric paging). For details, refer to "Programmable
Outputs".
The message to be sent to the pager will be the
"Panel Code" (or "Account UID"), and an output-
reference number (1= 1
st
one in selected range; 2 =
2
nd
one in selected range; etc.).
It is very useful to print out a small alarm/output
reference (wallet or pager-size), for each system that
has numeric paging set-up.

 Software-Based Text Paging (Serial Reporting)
 STU  (xL Panels; UK/ACPO only)
This pertains to an internal (modular) interface to a
subscriber terminal unit.
- Enable line fault input: Whether or not the
STU has an output to indicate a 'line fail' to the
STU interface.
- Line fail polarity: Positive Fail
(Low=Normal), or Negative Fail
(High=Normal).
