Available Upgrade Features

Encryption (XR500N, XR550 with Network only)

Enable this feature to provide AES data encryption. This feature upgrade can only be enabled on an

XR500N panel version 105 or higher or XR550 with Network installed. Encrypted communication cannot

be enabled on a standard XR500 or XR550 panel.

All No Yes Option

When this feature is enabled on an XR500 Series version 106, the ALL NO YES option does not display

at any keypad during arming or disarming. Each area assigned to the user profile is chosen to be

armed or disarmed individually.

Service Code Authentication

Enable this feature on an XR500 Series version 108 panel to authenticate service personnel before

allowing access to panel programming or the User Menu. The Service Code is programmed into the

SCS-1R receiver. The Service User code is user number zero (0) in the panel and can only be created in

the panel remotely. Once a valid Service Code is entered at the panel, the panel validates the code

with the SCS-1R, and access is granted to panel programming or User Menu. The service person then

has 30 minutes to complete programming before authenticating again. If the Service Code entered is

not validated, access to programming or the User Menu using the Service User code is denied.

Performing the Upgrade

To perform a remote panel feature upgrade, connect to the panel to be upgraded. After successfully

connecting, select Panel > Feature Upgrade from the drop-down menu. The Feature Upgrade window

displays the panel model number and serial number, a list of available features, and the currently

enabled features.
