5.23 Keypad Backlighting
The keys of all the keypads can be backlit to provide easy
viewing in dim lighting conditions. If the Keypad Backlighting
Option is enabled the keys will be illuminated.
Keypad Backlighting Option...................... Section [016]: [5]
5.24 Loop Response
The normal loop response time for all zones is 500 milliseconds.
The panel will not consider a zone violated unless it is violated
for at least 500 milliseconds.
Zone 1 on the control board, however, can be programmed for
a fast loop response (10ms).
Zone 1 is Fast Loop Response .................. Section [013]: [5]
5.25 Keypad Tampers
If the Keypad Tampers Enable option is selected, the panel will
display and transmit a General System Tamper reporting code
if any keypad is removed from the wall. When the keypad
tamper is restored, the panel will transmit the General System
Tamper Restoral reporting code. All keypads should be properly
installed and secured before enabling this option.
Keypad Tamper Enable ............................. Section [016]: [8]
General System Tamper and Tamper
Restoral Reporting Codes ................................ Section [338]
After enabling Keypad Tampers, it is recom-
mended to tamper and restore all keypads to
ensure proper functioning.
5.26 LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator
The LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator can be used three
different ways: as the sole communicator for the panel, as a
back up for either or both phone numbers or as a redundant
back up to the land line communicator, where the panel will call
both the land line and via the LINKS. A LINKS Preamble is
programmable for each phone number in the event that the land
line number is local but the LINKS is required to dial an
exchange. When programming a LINKS Preamble, all unused
digits must be programmed with a hexadecimal “F”.
Using LINKS 1000 as the Sole Communicator
The panel can be programmed to report an event only using the
LINKS 1000 cellular communicator. To program this option,
select only the LINKS 1000 in the Communicator Call Direction
Options. The Call LINKS as well as Land Line option must also
be enabled.
When the selected event occurs the panel will only attempt to
call central station using the LINKS.
Using the LINKS 1000 as a Backup Communicator
The panel can be programmed to call using the LINKS 1000
Cellular Communicator if the panel is having difficulty
communicating an event using the land line. To program this
option, select both the phone number and LINKS options in the
Communicator Call Direction Options. The LINKS is Backup
of Land Lines option must be selected.
When used as a backup communicator, the panel will attempt to call
the central station in the following manner:
• the panel will try to call using land lines – if unsuccessful, the
panel will try to call using the LINKS
• if unsuccessful, the panel will try to call using the land lines on
the next dialing attempt
This process will continue until the panel has successfully
communicated with the central station or until the panel’s
dialing attempts have been exhausted.
Using the LINKS as a Redundant Communicator
The panel can be programmed to call using first the land line
and then the LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator when an event
occurs. To program this option, select both the phone number
and the LINKS options for the Communicator Call Direction
Options for the event. The Call LINKS as well as Land Line
option must be selected.
In some areas of North America, dialing #DAT or ✱DATA
reduces the cellular billing increment. Enabling programming
section [393] LINKS Special Preamble, allows the use of [✱]
and [#] characters for the programming of #DAT and ✱DATA.
The LINKS Special Preamble is sent BEFORE the Preamble
programmed in Sections [390] to [392].
Example: [Special Preamble][Regular Preamble][Telephone
Number]
If this Special Preamble is programmed, it will be
inserted before the Regular Preamble of ALL
telephone numbers. Hex digits D and E are not
supported for Preamble programming.
Please refer to the LINKS1000 installation Manual for more
information and connection diagrams.
