From 2007, Daylight Saving Time in the USA begins on the second Sunday in March and
ends on the first Sunday of November. This modification has been accounted for in the
firmware and the time shall be updated automatically according to the new dates from
2007 onwards.
To program the Daylight Savings option:
1. From the Programming menu, select System Options, Daylight
Savings [9416].
2. Select Europe, USA or Disabled.
9.17: Report Fail Trouble
If the Report Fail Trouble option is enabled, failure to report an event displays System
Trouble on the LCD display. Report Fail Trouble is displayed after the control panel has
exhausted all message attempts and report cycles when trying to report the event. To
restore a System Trouble condition caused by failure to report, press until you have
scrolled through the entire system trouble list. If the Report Fail Trouble is disabled,
failure to report an event does not cause a system trouble condition.
To program the Report Fail Trouble option:
1. From the Programming menu, select System Options, Rep. Fail Trb. [9417].
2. Select Enabled or Disabled.
9.18: Cancel Alarm
The Cancel Alarm feature is an option that allows the user to cancel a false alarm by
disarming the system within five minutes of reporting the alarm. Cancelling an alarm
causes the control panel to report a Cancel event to the monitoring station and an enter
an Alarm Cancelled event in the event log. Following a cancelled alarm, the message
Alarm Cancelled, OK? appears on the keypads’ LCD until the user presses 3 to
confirm. Until confirmation is received, the control panel does not allow any local function
to be performed. However, the control panel may perform remote commands received
via Telecontrol or Remote Programming regardless of this system status. Please note
that alarm indication has higher priority and overrides the “Alarm Cancelled” display.
As this control panel has been designed to meet the requirements of the ANSI/SIA
CP-01 standard for false alarm reduction, it is not possible to disable the Cancel Alarm
feature. Consequently, the system will reject any attempt to change the default setting of
the menu item System Options, Cancel Alarm [9418].
