6.1 Reporting Options
Feature Select Programming D Address 086, key [11] & [12]
Default: Reporting Disabled
When a specific event occurs in the system, the control panel will attempt to report the appropriate event code (if programmed) to
the Monitoring Station. The four available Reporting Options described in the table below, define where the event codes are
reported. In order to establish communication with the Monitoring Station the control panel will first access a telephone line and
wait a maximum of 8 seconds for a dial tone. If a dial tone is recognized or if after 8 seconds there is no dial tone, the control
panel will dial the appropriate Monitoring Station Telephone Number as defined by the Reporting Options listed in the table below.
If communication is established, the control panel will transmit the events in the event buffer to the Monitoring Station. If
communication fails during transmission, the control panel will dial the next monitoring station telephone number, as defined by
the reporting options listed below, and report only those events not reported during the interrupted attempt. For information on
Reporting Event Codes see section 6.6.

6.1.1 Reporting Disabled
The Control Panel will never transmit any event codes to the monitoring station.
6.1.2 Regular Reporting
Using regular reporting the event codes are reported to the monitoring station using either telephone number 1 or 2.
The control panel will begin by dialing monitoring station telephone number 1. If communication fails, the dialer will
hang up, wait a predetermined period and dial monitoring station telephone number 2. This sequence will repeat 4
times, switching back and forth between the 1st and 2nd number (see Figure 24 on the following page) until
communication is established. After eight unsuccessful attempts, the redial sequence ends and a "communicator
report failure" will appear in the keypad's trouble display (key [7] "on"). When the next event occurs (reportable or non-
reportable), the control panel will begin the dialing sequence again.
6.1.3 Split Reporting
When the system is not in alarm, the control panel will report all Event Codes to Monitoring Station Telephone 2. If
communication fails, the dialer will hang-up, wait a predetermined period and dial the number again. The control panel
will dial the number eight times until communication is established (see Figure 24 on the following page). After eight
unsuccessful attempts, the redial sequence ends and a "communicator report failure" will appear in the keypad's
trouble display (key [7] "on"). When the next event occurs (reportable or non-reportable), the control panel will begin
the dialing sequence again.
When the system is in alarm, the control panel will report all Event Codes to Monitoring Station Telephone 1. Any
ongoing communication (upload/download or reporting to Telephone 2) will stop immediately and the panel will dial
Telephone 1. If communication fails, the dialer will hang-up, wait a predetermined period and dial the number again.
The control panel will dial the number eight times until communication is established (see Figure 24 below). After eight
unsuccessful attempts, the redial sequence ends and a "communicator report failure" will appear in the keypad's
trouble display (key [7] "on"). When the next event occurs (reportable or non-reportable), the control panel will begin
the dialing sequence again.
6.1.4 Double Reporting
In double reporting, the control panel will report each event code to both monitoring station telephone numbers. The
control panel will begin by attempting communication with monitoring station telephone 1 and if communication fails,
the dialer will hang-up, wait a predetermined period and dial the number again. The control panel will dial the number
eight times until communication is established (see Figure 24). After eight unsuccessful attempts, the redial sequence
ends and a "communicator report failure" will appear in the keypad's trouble display (key [7] "on"). If communication
has been established and the event codes transmitted or if after eight attempts communication has not been
established, the control panel will report the same Event Codes to Monitoring Station Telephone 2.
