System information

PROGRAMMING DESCRIPTIONS SECTION 4

[01] Module Configuration

Option 1

: Communications Enabled / Disabled

Enable this option to have the LINKS2450 initiate communications for all events that

have reporting codes and call direction options (section [30]) programmed.

Disable this option to test the system.

Option 2

: Serial Connection / Keybus Connection

Enable this option if you will use the LINKS2450 with a PC4010/4020 panel. Disable

this option if you will use the LINKS2450 with a PC5015, PC5010, PC5008, PC1580,

PC1565 or PC585 panel.

[10] LINKS2450 Account Code

This 4-digit code is used to identify the system and is transmitted when the

LINKS2450 initiates communications. Program a 4-digit code in this section using

2 two-digit Hexadecimal numbers. Refer to your control panel Installation Manual

for instructions on programming hexadecimal digits.

NOTE: An account number must be entered in this section before the LINKS2450

can send any communications. Programming [FFFF] will disable the LINKS2450.

[20] Maintenance Alarms and Restoral Reporting Codes

Program 2 digit reporting codes for the following:

• Keybus/Serial Fault Alarm:

This code will be sent when connection is lost to

the panel for more than 30seconds.

• Keybus/Serial Fault Restoral: This code will be sent when connection is

restored to the panel for more than 30seconds.

• Test Transmission: This code will be sent according to the programming of

section [40], the test transmission timer.

[30] Call Direction Options (PC5015, PC5010, PC5008, PC1580,

PC1565 and PC585 panels only)

Program which of the following reporting code types the LINKS2450 will send to the

central station:

• Alarm/restore reporting

• Tamper/restore reporting

• Opening/closing reporting

• System maintenance reporting

• System test transmission reporting

In most installations, you should program the tranmission of alarm/restore reporting codes

only. Your radio network has limited bandwidth and capacity. The more signals each

LINKS2450 transmits, the fewer LINKS2450s you will be able to install on your network.

[40] Test Transmission (Heartbeat) Timer

Use this feature with appropriately equipped Safe Link radio networks to provide

a higher level of security to a limited number of radios. The LINKS2450 will send test

signals at the interval programmed in this section. If the network does not receive

a test signal, an exception signal is generated and sent to your central station.
