7 3. Operation (continued) To program an NVM 1. Install the D1154 software. See section 2. Connect a D0354 or D0355 Programming Socket. See section 2. Adjust the setup options for the Programming Socket. See section 11. The D0355 Programming Socket includes LEDs to indicate operation. See Appendix Fit the NVM that you intend to program into the programming socket. The type must be 93C46 or Dycon D1055. See Fig Select each screen as required using the toolbar buttons or select from the VIEW menu. Program the data required into each screen. See section 4, 5, 6 and 13. Note: The minimum programming required to make an NVM to test a system is to enter the telephone number that DigiCom will dial when reporting to an ARC then program an Account Number (Chip Number). All other settings may be left at the default values. 4. Press the WRITE button (see Fig 2) or use the NVM menu PROGRAM command. DigiCom Reporting When DigiCom is triggered it will initially attempt to dial and report to telephone number 1 using the Account Number (or Chip Number) to identify the DigiCom. DigiCom will use the DTMF Fast Format protocol to report to the receiving equipment at the ARC. Should this first attempt be unsuccessful, DigiCom will repeat the attempt to telephone number 2 after a preset pause. Should this second attempt be unsuccessful, DigiCom will repeat the attempt to telephone number 3 after a preset pause. Where a second or third telephone number has not been programmed, the repeat attempts are made in turn to the telephone numbers that have been programmed. After 3 attempts to report to a number have failed, the Fail to Communicate state will operate the fault relay. In accordance with PSTN approval requirements, a maximum of 5 attempts will be made to each number. No further dialling attempts are made once the alarm message has been successfully passed to an ARC receiver. If a Comms Successful output is specified in the NVM, this will occur at the same time.

8 4. Programming Numbers Select the NUMBERS button (see Fig 2) or use the VIEW menu, NUMBERS command to reach the CALLING INFO screen. This is where the numbers that the DigiCom will call are programmed. Fig. 3 The following parameters can be set from this window. Note that at least one telephone numbers must be entered. 1 PSTN 1 - this is the first telephone number at the ARC that the Duet will call via the PSTN. A telephone number must be entered here. Enter the digits that are to be dialled. Do not put spaces between the numbers. If you require detection of a dial-tone after dialling a prefix digit, insert the character D after the prefix. If a fixed 4 second dial pause is required, insert the character A at the point when the pause is required. E.g. 9D132A this will grab the telephone line, dial 9 (prefix for an outside line), wait until a dial-tone is detected, then dial 132 to access the Mercury network, wait 4 seconds then dial See Section 3, DigiCom Reporting for a description of the dialling sequence. 2. PSTN 2 - this is the second telephone number at the ARC that the DigiCom will call via the PSTN. See PSTN 1 for details. The entry of a second telephone number here is optional. 3. PSTN 3 - this is the third telephone number at the ARC that the DigiCom will call via the PSTN. See PSTN 1 for details. The entry of a third telephone number here is optional. 4. PSTN dialling - select dialling type from Pulse dial, MF (tone) dial, or MF with 3-way-calling. Where the DigiCom shares its telephone line with other equipment, e.g. a fax machine, and 3-way calling is available from the telecomms supplier, this feature should be selected. Correct operation of 3-way-calling requires the PSTN wiring to the DigiCom to be as recommended in the DigiCom Installation Manual. Three-way-calling and correct wiring will enable a call to the other equipment, e.g. a fax machine, to be interrupted should the DigiCom need to send an alarm call on the telephone path. Note that 3-way-calling may attract an additional charge from the telecomms supplier. 5. Account Number - sets the account number (sometimes called the chip number) that identifies this DigiCom site (normally 4 digits). An account number must be entered here. 6. Increment - this button simply increment the account number shown and is helpful if programming several NVMs with sequential numbers.

9 5. Input Settings Select INPUTS (see Fig 2) or use the VIEW menu, INPUTS command to reach the INPUT SETTINGS screen. The input screen sets the configuration of DigiCom inputs. The setup parameters are simply selected by clicking in the boxes relative to each particular input. Fig. 4 The following input parameters can be programmed from this window: 1. Inverted - changes the input response from a positive applied start to a positive removed start. 2. Channel (1 to 8) - enter a number in each box (1-8) to determine which channel of the transmission will be controlled by which input. Active channels will be triggered when a particular input is activated. Enter 0 for those inputs that will not trigger a transmission to an ARC. Where a D1101 Plug-on DigiCom is used, it may be necessary to program that different channels are triggered from the 8 inputs. This feature allows any channel to be triggered by any input. 3. Restore - selects those inputs that are required to send a restore signal to the ARC once the input has changed back to its normal state. 4. Open/Close - selects those inputs that report open & closings instead of alarm & restores. When this is selected, both open and close will always be reported. The Restore selection for this input will have no effect. 5. Comms Success - selects those channels that will make the output relay operate for a period after every successful transmission. See Comms Success on page Abort - selects which channel will signal Alarm Abort to the ARC. This feature enables older alarm systems to comply with the ACPO false alarms policy (see Glossary of Terms). The same channel should have its corresponding input disabled or no connection made to that input (See Channels, Fig 4). If the Alarm Abort information is not required, select the OFF position (next to No.1). 7. Delayed Reporting - selects a 20-second delay between triggering (and restoral) of channel 3 and sending the transmission to the ARC. This feature can be used to reduce false alarms by allowing the alarm system user to reset an alarm within 20 seconds and avoid a channel 3 call to the ARC. Example: With the delay selected and set to 20 seconds, an input signal up to 19 seconds will not start a transmission. If the input signal is applied and stays applied for 21 seconds or longer, then the alarm transmission will be triggered.

10 6. Monitoring and Outputs Select MONITORING (see Fig 2) or use the VIEW menu, MONITORING command to reach the LINE MONITORING AND OUTPUTS screen. Monitoring is used by the DigiCom to ascertain whether the PSTN signaling path is faulty. Fig. 5 This screen has four parts. The top left quadrant of the window sets the PSTN LINE MONITOR for the type of monitoring. The bottom left quadrant of the window sets the TESTS and various timing functions. The top right quadrant of the window sets the OUTPUT 1 functions. The bottom right quadrant of the window sets the OUTPUT 2 functions. Note that Output 2 is not available on the DigiCom. The following pages describe each in detail. PSTN Line Monitor The top left quadrant of the window sets the PSTN LINE MONITOR for the type of monitoring on the PSTN line (see Fig 5) Hour DC Voltage Check - continuously checks for a DC voltage on the PSTN line that comes from the exchange equipment. If it is below approx. 3.5 volts or absent then the line monitor will trigger a PSTN Line Fault Hour Off-hook Detect - continuously checks for another phone (or fax, modem etc.) on the same PSTN line being off-hook. If it is, it may inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If the off-hook state is detected the line monitor will trigger a PSTN LINE FAULT. This option should only be selected for PSTN lines that have no other equipment connected to the PSTN line and no other equipment connected the DigiCom A1 & B1 terminals Hour Ringing Detect - continuously checks for incoming ringing on the PSTN line. Incoming Ringing may inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If incoming ringing is detected the line monitor will trigger a PSTN Line Fault. This option should only be selected for PSTN lines that are supplied as Incoming Ringing Barred (ICB), i.e. they should never have ringing on them.

11 6. Monitoring and Outputs (continued) PSTN Line Monitor Hour Dial Tone Detect - periodically checks the PSTN line by listning for dial tone, dialling the digit 5 and ensuring that the dial-tone disappears. An absent dial tone can inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If the dial tone test fails then the line monitor will trigger a PSTN Line Fault. The period is selected by TESTS, section 2 and 3 on page Pre-dial Off-hook Detect - after being triggered and before dialling, checks for another phone (or fax, modem etc.) on the same PSTN line being off-hook. If it is, it will inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If the off-hook state is detected the line monitor will trigger a PSTN LINE FAULT. Where 3-way-Calling is available from the service provider, and it is selected (see section 4, PSTN dialling), and the PSTN is connected as recommended in the DigiCom Installation Manual, then this LINE FAULT condition will not inhibit DigiCom from making a call. 6. Pre-dial Ringing Detect - after being triggered & before dialling, checks for incoming ringing on the same PSTN line. If it is, it will inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If incoming ringing is detected the line monitor will trigger a PSTN Line Fault. Where 3-way-Calling is available from the service provider, and it is selected (see section 4, PSTN dialling), and the PSTN is connected as recommended in the DigiCom Installation Manual, then this Line Fault condition will not inhibit DigiCom from making a call. 7. Pre-dial Dial Tone Detect - after being triggered and before dialling, checks the PSTN line by listning for dial tone. An absent dial tone may inhibit DigiCom from making a telephone call. If the dial tone test fails, the line monitor will trigger a PSTN LINE FAULT. 8. Defeat Line Monitor Output - select this to disable the line monitor output on the D1101 Plug-on DigiCom. Note that this control has no effect on the D1100 DigiCom. 9. Dedicated Line - selects the recommended combination of options when DigiCom is using a PSTN line that has been provided exclusively for the alarm system where no other equipment will use the same PSTN line. Other equipment may be a telephone, a fax, a modem etc. 10. Shared Line - selects the recommended combination of options when DigiCom is sharing a PSTN line with other equipment. A series connection to the shared equipment is recommended. See DigiCom Installation Manual. Note: it is recommended that the monitoring for a shared line is not changed from the pre-set parameters, otherwise a line fault may occur when the PSTN line is in use by other equipment, e.g. a telephone, a fax, a modem etc. D1154 Digicom NVM Programmer Version Installation Manual D1154-INV2-02-Eng/09L/v1 Page 11 of 28

12 6. Monitoring and Outputs (continued) Tests The bottom left quadrant of the window sets the Test Calls for regular tests calls to the ARC and the various timing functions (see Fig 5). 1. Test Call Interval - sets the period in hours between automatic test calls. A setting of 0 turns off all automatic test calls. The period between test calls is set in periods of hours, 1 to 99. Test calls are only sent after the TEST CALL INTERVAL has elapsed following the last call (the last call may be alarm, open close, test etc.). 2. Unset Dialtone Test Interval - sets the period (0 to 99 minutes) between dial-tone tests when the system is set. See LINE MONITOR, section 4 on page 11. A value of 0 will switch off dial-tone testing during the unset period. It is recommended that this feature is not enabled on a shared telephone line. 3. Set Dialtone Test Interval - sets the period (0 to 99 minutes) between dial-tone tests when the system is unset. See LINE MONITOR, section 4 on page 11. A value of 0 will switch off dial-tone testing during the set period. 4. Comm Fail Time - sets the time in seconds that the output relay will be operated when a communication to the ARC is un-successful. See Output 1 and Comm Success Time - sets the time in seconds that the output relay will be operated when a communication to the ARC is successful. See Output 1 and 2. Output 1 The top right quadrant of the window sets the OUTPUT 1 relay functions (see Fig 5). Only one of the following may be selected: Line Monitor, Comms Fail or Comms Success. 1. Line Monitor - select to make the output relay operate in response to the line monitor output. 2. Comms Fail - select to make the output relay operate for a period after every failure to make a successful transmission. The period is set by the COMM FAIL TIME (see Tests, section 4). All failed transmissions including test calls will operate the relay. 3. Comms Success - select to make the output relay operate for a period after every successful transmission for selected channels. See COMMS SUCCESS on page 9. The period is set by the COMM SUCCESS TIME (see Tests, section 5). All successful transmissions including test calls will operate the relay. 4. Inverted - makes the output relay normally energised. The functions above will make the relay de-energise when operated. 5. Latched - makes the output relay stay in the operated state until the DigiCom is reset or has power removed and replaced. When this option is selected, the COMM FAIL TIME and COMM SUCCESS TIME (see Tests, sections 4 and 5) are not used. Output 2 Note that this output is not available on the current DigiCom.

14 7. Reading, Writing and Comparing an NVM (continued) To program an NVM using the Programming Socket (continued) 3. Select each screen as required using the toolbar buttons or select from the VIEW menu. Program the data required into each screen. See section 4,5,6 & 13. Note: The minimum required to test a system is: Program the telephone numbers that DigiCom will dial when reporting to an ARC, then Program an Account Number (the Chip Number). 4. Press PROGRAM or use the NVM menu, PROGRAM command. see Fig 2. There are many other programming options. The above will program an NVM with the default values which will allow the Dualcom to operate in most cases. If the NVM already contains some data, the NVM NOT BLANK message is displayed before programming commences. After 1-2 seconds the PROM PROGRAMMED OK message will be displayed. The PROG FAIL message will be displayed if an NVM can not be programmed. PROGR FAIL often indicates that there is insufficient power available to program the NVM. Check the connections from the Programmer PSU. Comparing an NVM with the screen Parameters If you wish to compare the information held in the NVM with that of the programmer, click on the COMPARE button (see Fig 2) or use the NVM menu COMPARE command. If the data held in the NVM is identical with that held in the programmer, the COMPARE OK message is displayed. If any bit of data in the NVM differs from that on the Programmer screen, then a message will be displayed together with the location of that data in the NVM plus the NVM data and the differing data. When the data has been noted, press the OK button to see the next location that is different. Press the CANCEL button to end the compare display. 8. Viewing and Printing Files Open a.prm file as described in Section 9 or read an NVM fitted in the programming socket. This will load a NVM file into the Programmer. All settings may then be viewed by selecting each screen using the toolbar buttons or by the menus as described on the preceding pages. Use the FILE menu, PRINT command to print a copy of the current setup condition. This text file will represent all the settings within the Programmer at this time.

15 9. Loading and Saving Files to Disk Files that are created on the D1154 Programmer can be saved to disc as.prm files. This is particularly useful because a library of masters can then be stored on disc for access when required. Use the OPEN AND SAVE FILE buttons (see Fig 2) exactly as with files in any other Windows program. Name each file to identify it to a particular site with the extension PRM, e,g, MASTER1.PRM. See Fig 7. The SAVE AS command is available on the File menu for creating new files. Most users program an NVM as a Master NVM containing their normal setups, telephone numbers etc. This may be done by saving the Master NVM as a file on the PC. Making a new NVM requires opening the Master NVM file, entering the required Account Number and pressing the NVM Write button. 10. DTMF Fast Format Fig. 7 Table 3 shows the full range of data that is sent from a DigiCom every time it sends a transmission to the ARC receiving equipment using the DTMF Fast Format protocol. A transmission consists of 8 channels of data followed by the one test channel. Each channel carries a single digit. The digits that can be carried by the 8 channels are shown in Table Data. The digit that can be carried by the Test channel is shown in Table 3 T Data. 1-8 Data T Data Meaning 1 New alarm event 2 Opening event 3 New alarm restoral 4 Closing event 5 No event, input is in the quiescent state. Alarm channel = No alarm Open/close channel = Closed, Set 6 No event, input is in the active state.

23 The D0354 NVM Programming Socket APPENDIX 1 The D0354 NVM Programming Socket connects to a parallel (or printer) LPT port on the computer and can only be used with Windows versions 95, 98, 98SE or ME. This item will not be available after April This programming socket has a connector that is a feed-through type which your printer can also connect to. Some printers, particularly Hewlett Packard printers, operate in a different way to the majority of printers available. If printing or NVM programming is adversely affected when the D0354 and the printer are connected, only connect one or the other to the PC parallel LPT port. Switch units are available from general PC suppliers to make this selection easier. Connect the PSU to the programming socket PSU at the rear of the programmer. Where the DC voltage from the power supply can be adjusted, ensure that the setting on the power supply is: 6 volts DC The plug connector tip = positive. Programming NVMs without the power supply is possible on some PCs. In these cases, there is no need to connect the PSU.
