Substitution Code Enable: If UL AA is disabled, the Substitution Code Enable field is enabled. Check
the box if the panel sends a Panel Substitution Code when communicating with the receiver. The
Panel Substitution Code increases the level of security by helping to ensure that the panel sending the
message to the receiver has not been substituted by another panel. By default, the Substitution Code
is not enabled. When UL AA is enabled, the substitution code is always sent.
Check-in Time: If you disable UL AA, enter the number of minutes, from 0 to 240, between check-in
reports. This occurs when the panel is armed or disarmed. Check-in reports are a method of
supervising the panel for communication with the receiver. When 0 (Zero) is entered, the check-in
feature is disabled. By default, the Check-in Time is 6 minute.
Fail Time: Allows the receiver to miss multiple check-ins before logging that the panel is missing. For
example, if Check-in Time is set to 10 and Fail Time is set to 30, the receiver only indicates a Panel
Not Responding after 30 minutes. The panel attempts to send the message every 10 minutes.
The Fail Time must be equal to or greater than the Check-in Time. For example, if the Check-in Time
is 10 minutes, the Fail Time should be 10 minutes or more. The maximum Fail Time is 240 minutes.
By default, the Fail Time is 6 minute.
Notify Network Trouble: Sends a notification when there is trouble with the network. When UL AA is
enabled, this feature is automatically enabled. When Notify Network Trouble is enabled and the panel
detects a failure of the primary network, the panel sends an S72, Network Trouble message, through
the digital dialer (DD) if it is programmed as the second line. Also, the trouble keypads sound a
continuous tone and display "NETWORK -TRBL." Press any key to silence the tone.
When the primary network restores the panel sends an S73, Network Restored message, through the
digital dialer (DD) if it is programmed as the second line. The "NETWORK -TRBL" display is removed
from the keypad and the tone automatically silences.
Net Test Enable: Check this box to send an S97 network communication test message to the Central
Station receiver over the network based on the Test Time and frequency programmed in
Communications.
Note: The S97 test message is specific to network operation. The S88 and S07 messages are
specific to and only sent using the digital dialer. Having separate test messages for network
and digital dialer operation allows the Central Station to identify the communication path used
to send the message.
Net Fail Test: The time programmed in Net Fail Test increases the dialer test frequency programmed
in Test Time during a network failure. Select a 2, 4, or 8-hour interval between digital dialer contact
attempts. The digital dialer sends an S88, Automatic Recall Unrestored System message or an S07,
Automatic Recall Test message at the programmed minutes indicated in the Automatic Recall Test
Time. Select 0 (zero) to disable more frequent digital dialer testing when NET communications fail.
Default is 0 (zero).
