Required Programming to meet UL 636

When using a B Series control panel for hold-up operation, a hold-up point should
have the following setting applied to it:
− Point Type = 0 (Point is constantly armed regardless of the status of the system.)
− Invisible Point = Yes (Keypads do not show alarm activity from this point.)
When using Modem 4 communication type, the unique point text should be set to
“Hold-Up”, or equivalent language per the AHJ.
When using ContactID communication type, because the ContactID system doesn’t
provide custom text, the hold-up point should be associated as a “hold-up” point at
the receiving station. Set Area # Delay Restorals as follows:
− Area # Delay Restorals = No (Restoral report is sent when point restores.)

2 Panel Specific Information

Virtual Inputs and Outputs
When is a point Virtual?
A point is virtual when its Point Source parameter is set to Output.
When Point Source is set to Output, the output with the same number is virtually
connected to the point. There are no physical connections when a point is virtual.
Whenever the output is activated, the control panel creates a fault (open circuit) for
the point. Points with their Point Source set to Output can never be in a short circuit
or missing state.

When is an output virtual?

An output is virtual when its Output Source parameter is set to Zonex and the point
with the same number (Point 11 and Output 11 for example) has it's Point Source set
to Output and an octo-output module is not connected.
When Output Source is set to Zonex and there is no connection to an octo-output
module, the output and the point with the same number are virtually connected. They
are not physically connected.
When a point is virtually connected to the output of the same number, the output
does not have to be virtual as well. Its Output Source parameter can be set to either
Zonex or Octo-Output.

IMPORTANT
You cannot program an output that is the Point Source for the point with the same number
(Point 11 and Output 11 for example) to an output function that would cause the point to
reactivate itself.
Configuring a Virtual Output

Valid Number Range

D9412GV4 D7412GV4
Available virtual output numbers 9-128 9-64
Available virtual point numbers 9-128 9-64
Note: The number range 1-8 is unavailable for virtual inputs and virtual outputs
because on-board points cannot have their source changed.

Operation and Usage

Virtual Inputs (Points)
− A virtual input is set to open circuit state by an activating output of the same
number. The activating output can be located on any source; virtual output, on-
board output, Octo-output, or Keypad-output.
− Virtual inputs can only be in an open circuit or normal circuit state. They are never
in a short circuit or missing state.
− Virtual inputs can be queried by the appropriate point status commands in
execute function and automation protocols.
Virtual Outputs
− A virtual output is prohibited by the control panel software from activating an
input that will directly reactivate itself.
Example: A virtual point configured with Output Follows Point.

2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459 Program Entry Guide Bosch Security Systems, Inc.

Control Panels Panel Specific Information | en 15

Example: A virtual watch point activated by the watch output of the same area.
− Any output prompt in the control panel can be configured with a virtual output
number.
− A virtual output configured as an area-wide Fire, Gas or Burglar alarm output
follows the associated bell pattern.
− All Sked and Custom Function output functions (Set Output, Reset Output, Toggle
Output, and One-Shot output) can be configured with virtual output numbers.
− Since Virtual outputs and Zonex outputs are considered the same on the GV4
control panel, they must follow the same pattern restrictions. This means the
temporal 4 pattern is played at a slower rate.
− Virtual outputs can be set, reset or queried by the appropriate output commands
in execute function and automation protocols.

Programming Notes
IMPORTANT
After system installation and any control panel programming, perform a complete system test
(a UL864 requirement). A complete system test includes testing the control panel, all devices,
and communication paths for proper operation.

− When deleting Site Codes and Card Data, delete the Card Data first, then change
the Site Code to 255 (blank).
− Up to five digits may be entered in the Access Card Data displayed in RPS.
− When User Code Change, Card Assigned, User Level Set and User code Delete
events are uploaded into RPS, who performed the function is displayed (as long
as these commands are passcode protected in Keypad Functions), but who is
affected is not displayed.

3 Panel Wide Parameters

3.1 Phone and Phone Parameters

Phone 1, 2, 3, 4
Default: Blank
Selections: Up to 24 characters (do not enter SPACE)
Enter the telephone number that the control panel dials to contact the central station
receiver when sending reports.
0 - 9: Numbers 0 through 9
C: 3-second pause
D: 7-second dial tone detect
# or *: Used for the same purpose as pressing this key on a telephone keypad when
manually dialing. For example, an asterisk (*) may be needed to access your
long distance service. Do not use these characters when pulse dialing.
Blank: Control panel dials no phone number.
The control panel is pre-programmed with a 7-second dial tone detect period. When
dial tone is detected or the waiting period ends, the panel begins to dial. To extend
the dial tone detect program, place a D before the phone number. To insert a pause
during or after dialing, use C in the number sequence.
For example, if the control panel hangs up before it hears the Modem4 ACK tone from
the central station receiver, program extra Cs after the phone number. The control
panel waits on line for three extra seconds for each C programmed.
The first line of the phone number data entry line must be filled (12 characters)
before you press ENTER to move on to the second line. If you enter characters on the
second line, and there are less than 12 characters on the first line, the second line
clears when you press ENTER.
IMPORTANT:
− Leaving this parameter blank does not disable phone routing. To disable reporting to this
phone, see Routing.
− When dialing the central station using an ITS-DX4020-G in GSM mode, the control panel
must dial the C character before the central station's phone number. This ensures that
the control panel will dial a continuous string of numbers to reach the central station
instead of pausing after the first digit to check for DTMF or pulse dialing.
− When using PSTN telephone lines, you must program two telephone numbers to meet
UL864 requirements.
− To comply with SIA CP-01 False Alarm Reduction, ensure that backup telephone
reporting number is programmed to disable Call Waiting (typically *70 pause) if Call
Waiting is used. See SIA CP-01 Verification for more information.
− If you program the primary phone number with a sequence to cancel Call Waiting
followed by the phone number, program the backup phone number without the Call
Waiting cancel sequence. If the subscriber cancels Call Waiting service without notifying
their alarm installing company, the control panel can still send reports using the backup
number. Dialing a Call Waiting sequence on a non-Call Waiting line prevents the system
from successfully dialing the central station receiver.

When using telephone reporting, event reports can be routed to a Central Station
receiver using either Contact ID or Modem4 format. Modem4 reports identify points
and passcode User ID codes at the receiver. When reporting point events, Modem4
also sends point text as programmed in Point Assignments. When using network
reporting, event reports must be routed to a Conettix-compatible Central Station
receiver using Modem4 format.

The control panel tests the primary phone line approximately nine times a minute and
the secondary line once a minute. This prompt sets the amount of time the control
panel continues to monitor a faulted phone line before initiating phone line trouble
responses.
Keypads display [SERVC PH LINE #] to indicate which phone line failed. The keypad
initiates a trouble tone if both Buzz On Fail and KP# Trouble Tone are set to Yes.
With dual phone lines (using the D928 module), the restored phone line handles all
messages regardless of the phone line's number.
Phone trouble and restoral events report when they occur. They report also when a
diagnostic report is initiated from a Keypad or by a Sked.
IMPORTANT: To meet UL864 requirements, you must set this parameter to a non-zero
value.
0: No phone line supervision.
10 - 240: Enter the number of seconds (in 10 second increments) to supervise the
phone line. After a faulted phone line restores, it takes the same amount of time to
initiate restoral responses.

3.2 Report Routing

Routing Overview
Report Routing lets you select full or partial groups of events to be reported up to
four different destinations. Report Routing includes choosing which is the most
important destination, (Route #), which events are reported to a single or multiple
destination and if the events fail, which backup destination should be selected.
Called Party Disconnect
Telephone companies provide "called party disconnect" to allow the called party to
terminate a call. The called party must go on hook (hang up) for a fixed interval
before a dial tone is available for a new call. This interval varies with telephone
company equipment. The control panel allows for "called party disconnect" by adding
a 35 second "on hook" interval to the dial tone detect function. If the panel does not
detect a dial tone in seven seconds, it puts the phone line on hook for 35 seconds to
activate "called party disconnect," goes off hook and begins a seven-second dial tone
detect. If no dial tone is detected, the panel dials the number anyway. Each time the
number is dialed, the panel records this as an attempt. After 10 attempts the panel
goes into Communications Failure and Comm Fail Route # is displayed on the
Keypads.
Route # Groups, which has the highest priority?
To program a group, you first choose a Route # . The lower the Route # number, the
higher priority that group will have (e.g., events reported for Route 1 have a higher
priority than Route 2, 3 or 4 if each group has a message to send at the same time).
This will become important when programming duplicate reports or choosing which
events you want to ensure will report first regardless of the number of events that
need to be reported to multiple groups. Remember, Route 1 group Primary Device
will be the first destination that the panel will attempt to dial if an event in that group
needs to be reported. If the panel is idle, any event generated for any group will
initiate a dialing sequence.
Programming a Primary and Backup Destination
Each Route # has a Primary Device and Backup Device . In typical applications where
two phone numbers are programmed, the Primary Device destination is the Phone #
that the Route Group will attempt to dial first. If the Primary Device destination fails
to connect to the central station receiver after two dialing attempts, then the Backup

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Program Entry Guide 2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459

22 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

Device destination will be dialed. In addition to this, the control panel can be
programmed such that the Primary Device and/or the Backup Device can be an SDI
device, such as a DX4020 Network Interface Module.
Programming a Duplicate report
To allow an event within a group to report to multiple groups, the event should be
YES for each Route # available. For instance, programming Fire Alarms for Route
Group 1 and Route Group 2 will result in the fire alarms first reporting to Route
Group 1 followed by a duplicate report to Route Group 2.
Routing Destination Communication Failures
When the Primary Device fails to connect to the central station receiver after two
attempts, the Backup Device phone number will be dialed. The central station will
receive the original event with a COMM TROUBLE PHONE # =(1, 2, 3, or 4) message
added. This event does not occur if there is no backup phone number. COMM
RESTORE events are generated.
If the Primary Device is an SDI Path, the central station receives the original event
with a COMM TROUBLE RG8 SDI## event modifier.

Device Path 1 Path 2 Path 3 Path 4

SDI 88 88 89 90 91

SDI 92 92 93 94 95

SDI2-1 11 21 31 41

SDI2-2 12 22 32 42

When all attempts to both the R# Primary Device and R# Backup Device fail, a COMM
FAIL RG# event is generated. COMM RESTORE events are not generated.
The same COMM TROUBLE conditions occur if the control panel does not receive a
positive acknowledgement to a poll from the central station receiver after the
configured number of retries.
Message Prioritization Within a Route #
The 9000 Series Control Panels meet the digital reporting requirements for UL 864.
Fire alarm events have the highest priority and are reported first for each group. The
next highest priority events are in the following order, panic, duress, medical,
intrusion alarm, supervisory and then all troubles and restorals.
IMPORTANT: To comply with NFPA and UL864, you must program Route 1 to report only
Fire Alarm events to ensure the fastest reporting time.
Dialing Attempts
The primary device within a group will make six individual attempts to dial and the
backup device will make four attempts to dial before initiating a local Comm Fail
report. When only one destination is programmed, it will make 10 attempts. Each
group takes approximately 10 minutes to go into Comm Fail.

3.3 Communicator
Communicator Overview
The control panel makes up to ten communication attempts using the primary and
backup devices within a route group. If unsuccessful, it sends a Comm Fail Report.
The communication attempts occur in the following sequence:

Attempt # Path Type

1 Primary Path Device

2 Primary Path Device

3 Backup Path Device

4 Backup Path Device

5 Primary Path Device

6 Backup Path Device

7 Primary Path Device

8 Backup Path Device

9 Primary Path Device

10 Backup Path Device

When only the primary path device is programmed, the control panel makes all ten
attempts with that device. When reporting via phone, each group takes approximately
10 min to go into Comm Fail.
There are four Route Groups which contain a selection of event categorize and
individual events. Each group has a primary and a backup path device. The primary
path device is the first (most important) destination used to reach the programmed
route within this group. The backup path device is used if the primary path device
fails.
IMPORTANT: By setting a Primary or Backup Path Device to an SDI or SDI2
communication device, the module automatically becomes supervised. Any loss of bus
communication results in a SDI Fail system fault

Network Address Format

With the availability of the B426 (B420) it is now possible to enter a IPv4 or a fully
qualified domain name in a Network Address field. The information below defines the
proper format of the information that should be entered into the Network Address
fields.
IP address (IPv4) Format

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Program Entry Guide 2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459

30 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

This is in ASCII decimal format.

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx – eg 12.23.145.251 not C.17.91.FB. xxx = 0 to 255.
Fully Qualified Domain Name Format
The fully qualified domain name defines the exact address of a device in the Domain
Name System hierarchy. This includes the unique hostname of the device and the
subnet on which the device is located, separated by periods.
example: receiver01.your-alarm-company.com
Each label within the name must comply with RFC-921, "Domain Name System
Implementation Schedule".
Only the alphabet (A-Z), digits (0-9), and the minus sign (-) are allowed in the text
labels within the fully qualified domain name.
The period (.) is only allowed to delimit text labels that comprise the fully qualified
domain name.
Before entering a fully qualified domain name, be sure the device being addressed
has its name properly registered with the domain name system servers available to
the Ethernet Communicator. This can be verified using a freely available ping tool.
Additional Information
Information on Hostnames and fully qualified Domain Name formats can be found on

RG Same Network Receiver

The Route Group Same Network Receiver parameters define whether a primary and
backup network receiver configured within a Route Group are the same receiver. This
is required to ensure that the authentication keys from the control panel to receiver
are the same when the paths to the receiver use different IP Addresses or Port
Numbers. These parameters also enable the backup path poll time to change to the
primary poll time in the event of a Communication Trouble condition. This operates
when the following conditions apply:
− Both primary and backup devices use enhanced communication via an SDI device.
− Both primary and backup path destinations are the same receiver with different IP
Addresses that can be accessed from more than one network such as on a LAN /
WAN and over the Internet
− Both primary and backup paths use different poll rates, although it is not
necessary.
− Either the primary or the backup path (not both) has a Communication Trouble
condition.
RG Same Network Receiver Parameter Options
Default: Yes
Selections: Yes/No
Yes: The control panel uses the same authentication keys to communicate with both
the primary and backup paths that are the same receiver and upon detection of a
Communication Trouble on either the primary or backup enhanced communication
paths, the working path immediately changes to the faster poll rate.

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Program Entry Guide 2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459

32 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

No: The control panel uses separate authentication keys to communicate with the
primary and backup receivers and upon detection of a Communication Trouble on
either the primary or backup enhanced communication paths, the working path
continues to use its configured poll rate.
For Example: This would be used when a DX4020 is reporting to a receiver over a LAN
/ WAN and a ITS-DX4020-G is reporting to the same receiver over the Internet from
the cellular service provider. This configuration also typically has the poll rate for the
ITS-DX4020-G set to a slower poll rate than the primary such as every 4 hours.
IMPORTANT: In the above example, if there is a Communication Trouble Condition on the
DX4020, then the ITS-DX4020-G will poll at the configured poll rate of the DX4020. If the poll
rate of the DX4020 is set to 5 minutes or faster, there is a possibility of excessive data usage
that may exceed your data plan with the cellular service provider. Be sure that any
Communication Trouble events are addressed as soon as possible.

Time Synchronization
Default:
− Route Group 1: Yes
− Route Groups 2-4: No
Selections: Yes / No
This parameter enables the control panel to adjust its current time and date to bring
the control panel into synchronization with the Central Station receiver. These
options can only be configured from RPS.
The control panel provides a configuration option, Time Zone, which identifies the
control panel's time offset from Universal Time Coordinate (UTC). This option is
defaulted to the Eastern Time Zone. Time zones are provided in the drop-down menu.
This configuration parameter is included in Time Zone. Also refer to Daylight Saving
Time.
− Time Sync will not work when the Path Device is set to telephone.
− Time Sync can only be enabled in one route group at a time.
− Time Sync must be performed over a network connection.
− Time Sync is applicable to all route groups.
Off by 30 Minutes or Less:
The control panel adjusts its timekeeping to make up the difference. If the control
panel's time is slow, the control panel counts seconds faster than once per second. If
the control panel's time is fast, the control panel counts seconds slower than once
per second. The modified counting of seconds remains in effect until the control
panel time is in synchronization with the Central Station receiver time. Since every
second occurs, there are no skips in time. No skeds scheduled to be run are skipped.
Off by More than 30 Minutes:
The control panel checks for a date change. If the day, month, or year has changed,
the control panel's date is set to the new date. The control panel then sets its time to
that of the Central Station receiver. Due to the skip in time, scheduled skeds might
not run.

Network Address (Paths 1 to 4)

Default: Blank
Selections: IPv4 Address (0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255) or Hostname (Up to 255
Characters)
There are up to four available Paths that events can be routed to. If an event (or
group of events) are to be routed to an SDI Path, the number that is entered in
Primary Device in the Routing section will determine which SDI Path will be used (as
long as RG#, Primary SDI has been set to Yes in Routing as well).
If events are going to be routed to an IP Address (in a Private Local or Wide Area
Network application), you will need to determine which Path will be used (Path 1 –
Path 4) and then enter the appropriate IP Address for that Path.
IMPORTANT:
− If using IP Addresses as the communication means for UL 864 Commercial Fire
applications, set Path # IP Address as necessary.
− Whenever the central station requests a change to the IP Address or Port Number
configured in the control panel, the central station receiver must resynchronize the control
panel's anti-replay/anti-substitution static key.
− When Port Number/IP Address pairs have duplicate values in a GV4 control panel, RPS
shows the following warning message with Yes/No options. If you click No, RPS forces
you to enter unique values for the Port Number and IP Address fields. If you click Yes,
RPS allows you to enter duplicate values.

− Refer to Network Address Format for more information.

IMPORTANT:
− When upgrading from a G-series control panel that does not support network
communication to a GV4 control panel account, RPS forces the default to 7700.
− Whenever the central station requests a change to the Network Address or Port Number
configured in the control panel, the central station receiver must resynchronize the control

values remain each time Custom is selected until new values are set.
Cellular Settings for High Supervision Sites (Faster than 1 hour supervision)
The vast majority of cellular installations can be supervised at settings of 4 hours to
24 hours, but for high security and fire listed installations where cellular is the
primary or sole communication path and supervision rates are 1 hour or less you
should consider changing the following cellular parameters in the panel or cellular
device bus module:
Reporting Delay for Low Signal & Reporting Delay for No Towers: 200 seconds. For
some listed high security installations, low cellular signal is required be treated like a
wire cut and reported within 200 seconds. This will increase sensitivity to cellular
tower maintenance windows and other environmental conditions, so we recommend
leaving the default settings for non-listed installations.
Reporting Delay for Single Tower: 600 seconds. For sole path cellular sites with
supervision at 5 minutes or less where only one cell tower is available, maintenance
(generally 1-5 minutes in the early morning hours) or changes in environmental
conditions may cause communication troubles to be reported. To detect and report
single tower conditions at cellular sites using a plug-in cellular module in the panel or
on GV4 version 2+ or B Series SDI2 bus, enable Single Tower trouble reporting. The
number of towers available can be viewed in the B450 module’s USB menu or on
keypads of SDI2 control panels with version 2+.
NOTICE: For SDI and Option bus installations of a cellular module, trouble conditions
such as Low Signal and Single Tower result in the device going missing from the bus
when the delay timer is reached.

IMPORTANT CELLULAR SERVICE INFORMATION

To avoid monthly overages, Bosch offers service plans that align with the common
applications for cellular connectivity on alarm panels. To optimize data used for supervision,
refer to the Recommended supervision configuration table.

Poll Rate (Paths 1 to 4)

Default: 3240
Selections: 0, 5 to 65535 (seconds)
Each SDI path can be configured to send a heartbeat poll to the central station for
supervision purposes. This ensures the integrity of the connection at all times.
IMPORTANT:
− If using IP addresses as the communication means for UL864 9th edition commercial fire
applications, program this parameter as necessary.
− When sending reports to a central station receiver over a network path, set this
parameter to a non-zero value. Failure to program a value into this parameter could
prevent a failed network communication path from restoring to normal.
− If the control panel is programmed to send a heartbeat poll to the central station, a rate of
75 seconds maintains the virtual link in most network configurations. Decreasing the
value for this parameter increases the amount of idle communication between the SDI
device and the central station receiver. Increased idle communication between the
control panel and receiver decreases the control panel's event reporting efficiency.
− The control panel readjusts the heartbeat poll rate temporarily to less than 300 seconds
to 300 seconds when online with RPS. The poll rate returns to the programmed value
after the RPS session ends.
The value entered in this parameter is the interval (in seconds) at which the control
panel sends a heartbeat poll to the central station receiver. The value entered in ACK
Wait Time (Paths 1 to 4) is the length of time the control panel waits for an
acknowledgment of a heartbeat poll. If the acknowledgment is not received, the
control panel checks to determine if the path's retry count entry is greater than zero.
If so, the control panel retries the number of times entered in Retry Count (Paths 1 to
4) to send the heartbeat poll before declaring the path failed and generating a COMM
FAIL SDI ## (Path 1 = SDI 88, Path 2 = SDI 89, Path 3 = SDI 90, Path 4 = SDI 91)
event.
Poll Rate (Paths 1 to 4), ACK Wait Time (Paths 1 to 4), and Retry Count (Paths 1 to 4)
determine how the SDI path is supervised between the SDI device and the central
station receiver(s). Do not confuse the SDI path supervision with the supervision of
the SDI device itself (the connection of the SDI device to the control panel).

Device Path 1 Path 2 Path 3 Path 4

SDI 88 88 89 90 91

SDI 92 92 93 94 95

SDI2-1 11 21 31 41

36 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

If this parameter is programmed with a value and the central station does not
acknowledge the poll from the control panel, keypads annunciate a trouble condition.
To send this event to the central station, refer to Comm Fail for more information.
Heartbeat Example:
− Poll Rate (Paths 1 to 4) = 120 seconds
− ACK Wait Time (Paths 1 to 4) = 10 seconds
− Retry Count (Paths 1 to 4) = 2
When the control panel first powers up, the first heartbeat poll for Path 1 is sent and
acknowledged in 1 second. 120 seconds after the first heartbeat poll is sent, the
second heartbeat poll for Path 1 is sent to the central station receiver.
Retry Count Example:
An acknowledgement of the heartbeat was not received within 10 seconds. The
control panel sends the next heartbeat poll after the first 10-second ACK wait period
expires. If the central station does not acknowledge this heartbeat poll, the control
panel continues to resend. When the resend count is reached, the control panel
declares this path as failed and generates the Comm Fail ## event. The control panel
continues to re-send the heartbeat poll every 10 seconds until it receives an
acknowledgement, even after declaring a Comm Fail.
When the control panel receives acknowledgement from the central station, the
control panel returns to the normal poll rate.
If more than one SDI path is used, the control panel handles them on a successive
basis. For example, if acknowledgement from SDI Path 1 is not received within 10
seconds (based on the above example), the control panel moves to SDI Path 2 to
send its heartbeat poll, and subsequently waits for the ACK before returning to SDI
Path 1 to resend the heartbeat poll.
Entries are made in 1-second increments.
− 5 minutes = 300 seconds
− 1 hour = 3600 seconds
− 12 hours = 43,200 seconds
− 18 hours = 64,800 seconds
IMPORTANT: If heartbeat polls are enabled to send by an SDI path, and ACK Wait Time
(Paths 1 to 4) is exceeded, a COMM FAIL ## event occurs. When this condition occurs, all
events routed to this path go immediately to the backup path.
0: Disables the ‘heartbeat’ poll.
5 to 65534: Enables the poll rate for the amount of time programmed here (in
seconds).
65535: The 'heartbeat' poll occurs once a day.

Log % Full
Default: 0
Selections: 0 to 99
This parameter determines how full the memory log should be before initiating a call
to RPS at the central station. This allows the central station to call the control panel
and copy the memory log before messages could be overwritten.
An entry of 0 (zero) disables the LOG THRESHOLD and LOG OVERFLOW events. These
events are not put in the log nor reported to the central station receiver.
The control panel continues to log events after the LOG THRESHOLD report is sent.
When it reaches 100% capacity (memory logger is full and previously stored events
will be overwritten), the control panel generates a local LOG OVERFLOW event.
The control panel does not call RPS again until it downloads the log and the Log %
Full percentage is again reached. These events are also sent to the control panel's
event log.
IMPORTANT: The log overflow event is not sent to the central station unless Expand Test

IMPORTANT: When using the RPS Callback function, enter a "C" as the last digit in the RPS
phone number if DTMF dialing is used.
Yes: When the control panel hears the proper RPS passcode, it hangs up the phone,
seizes the phone line, then dials the programmed RPS phone number (see RPS Ph ).
This ensures that only the control panel communicates with the RPS PC connected to
the dialed phone number.
No: The RPS session is initiated immediately; no call back is required. The control
panel engages in RPS sessions when called from any phone number and a proper RPS
passcode is identified.

Fire Summary Sustain

Default: Yes
Selections: Yes or No
The purpose of the Fire Summary Sustain configuration option is to provide a fire or
gas alarm output to keep fire strobes active after the fire or gas bell has stopped
sounding.
Summary Fire Output – When Fire Summary Sustain is set to Yes, the Summary Fire
Output turns on when the first fire alarm is detected. The output remains active until
all fire alarms have been acknowledged, returned to normal, and removed from the
keypad display. Because acknowledging a fire alarm silences the fire alarm bell, the
output remains active after the bell has been silenced. When Fire Summary Sustain is
set to No, the Summary Fire Output turns on when the first fire alarm is detected and
turns off when all fire alarm points have returned to normal. Note that the Summary
Fire Output might turn off prior to the fire alarm bell silencing. The Fire Summary
Sustain settings perform an identical function for the Summary Gas Output.
Summary Supervisory Fire Output – Alarms and strobes are not typically associated
with a supervisory fire event, yet the Fire Summary Sustain option affects the
Summary Supervisory Fire Output because Fire Supervisory conditions are latching.
When Fire Summary Sustain is set to Yes, the Summary Supervisory Fire Output turns
on when the first fire supervisory is detected. The output remains active until all fire
supervisory conditions have been acknowledged, returned to normal, and removed
from the keypad display. When Fire Summary Sustain is set to No, the Summary
Supervisory Fire Output turns on when the first fire supervisory is detected and turns
off when all fire supervisory points have returned to normal. The Fire Summary
Sustain settings perform an identical function for the Summary Supervisory Gas
Output.
Summary Fire Trouble Output – Because fire troubles are self-restoring, the Fire
Summary Sustain option has no effect on the Summary Fire Trouble Output. The
Summary Fire Trouble Output turns on when the first fire trouble is reported. The
output remains active until all fire trouble conditions have returned to normal. No
user action at a keypad is required to clear the Summary Fire Trouble Output. The
Fire Summary Sustain settings perform an identical function for the Summary Trouble
Gas Output.
Yes: Forces the Summary Fire and Summary Gas output to remain on after the Alarm
Silence command.
No: Allows Summary Fire and Summary Gas output to activate when a corresponding
point in the system goes into alarm. This output provides a steady output until all fire
points in the system are returned to normal.

Fire Trouble Resound

Default: No Fire Trouble Resound
Selections:
− No Fire Trouble Resound
− Fire Trouble Resound @ 12:00 PM
− Fire Trouble Resound @ 12:00 AM
This item determines if a fire trouble condition, although previously acknowledged
and silenced at a keypad, will automatically resound the fire trouble tone at 12:00
P.M., 12:00 A.M., or not at all if the point is still in an off-normal state. Additionally,
when this parameter is set to resound, user authentication will be required to silence
troubles. A user's pass code must have an authority level of 1 or greater in an area to
silence troubles.
No Fire Trouble Resound: Keypads will not re-sound the fire trouble tone.
Fire Trouble Resound @ 12:00 PM: Keypads will re-sound the fire trouble tone at
12:00 P.M. (noon) if any fire point that falls within the scope of a keypad is in an off-
normal state.
Fire Trouble Resound @ 12:00 AM: Keypads will re-sound the fire trouble tone at

Changing a Passcode
If the passcode length is changed and duplicate or unusable passcodes are created as
a result, the Passcode Verification window opens.

If a passcode is identified as a duplicate passcode, it is marked in bold red.

If a passcode is identified as unusable (length is under or over the value entered in
this parameter), it is marked in bold blue.
To change a passcode:
1 Click the appropriate cell in the User Passcode column to select the passcode.
2 Press the [Backspace] key on your keyboard to clear the cell.
3 Enter the new passcode.
There are two option buttons that control how this parameter handles passcode
entries:
− Save corrected passcodes: This option is selected by default. All passcodes
marked as duplicate or unusable must be fixed before you click OK to save the
passcode corrections.
− Disable passcode length and store the data in this account: This option disables
the Passcode Length parameter and allows you to save passcodes of varying
lengths in the RPS account.
IMPORTANT: When the second option (Disable passcode length and store the data in

− Change in Passcode Length parameter: RPS displays the following message dialog:
"This operation will cause the Passcode Length to be disabled, SIA CP-01 Verification
parameter will be set to No and previously existing RPS passcode data will be stored.
Are you sure you want to continue?”
− Passcode Length Changes via the SIA CP-01 Verification parameter: RPs displays
the following message dialog: “This operation will cause the Passcode Length to be
disabled, all other parameters previously updated in the SIA Compliance Warning
window will be saved, SIA CP-01 Verification parameter will be set to No and previously
existing RPS passcode data will be stored. Are you sure you want to continue?”
− Incorrect Passcodes: RPS displays the following message dialog: “This operation will
cause the Passcode Length to be disabled, SIA CP-01 Verification parameter will be set
to No and the panel’s passcode data will be stored. Are you sure you want to continue?”
− Passcode Length Change during Send/Receive: RPS displays the following message

parameters previously updated in the SIA Compliance Warning window will be saved,
SIA CP-01 Verification parameter will be set to No and the panel’s passcode data will be
stored. Are you sure you want to continue? “
Similar and Duplicate Passcodes
You must change your entry to one that does not match or resemble an existing
passcode.
− Similar Passcodes: If the passcode you enter resembles another existing
passcode, the existing passcode appears in the Existing Similar Passcodes field.
− Duplicate Passcodes: If you enter a passcode that matches an existing passcode,
the existing passcodes appear in the Duplicate/Duress Passcodes field. Passcode
matches are based on duplicate entries with the length set to the lowest value
that complies with SIA CP-01 (3).
For example, if you enter "478123" as a passcode for User 2, and "478321" as a
passcode for User 3, and you set Passcode Length to three digits, the passcodes for
Users 2 and 3 appear in the Duplicate/Duress Passcodes field because both of these
passcodes share "478" as the first three digits. If Passcode Length were changed
from four digits to three digits, all of these passcodes would become duplicate
passcodes of "478."

Verify Time
Default: 5
Selections: 5 to 55 seconds (in 1 second increments)
This parameter sets the length of time to wait for the sensor to stabilize after an
alarm verification point is faulted and the sensor reset has reapplied power to the
sensors. This allows the control panel to re-check alarm verification point activations
before generating alarm signals.
Alarm verification is a feature of fire detection and alarm systems to reduce false
alarms where sensors report alarm conditions for a minimum period of time, or
confirm alarm conditions within a given period of time after being reset, in order to
be accepted as a valid alarm initiation signal.
IMPORTANT:
- Do not enable the Cross Point Feature in Point Indexes that are designated for fire
points.
- Check the sensor's datasheet for the stabilization time and enter a value at least 5
seconds higher than the longest time specified by any sensor in the loop.
- Check with your Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to determine the maximum
verification time allowed.
Alarm verification points are programmed individually to activate the verification
feature. Refer to Point Index. Any resettable fire point can activate alarm verification
for the area to which it is assigned. Bosch recommends using separate area alarm
verification outputs.
To enable alarm verification on a point, set Point Type to Fire, and Alarm Verify and
Resettable to Yes.
When an alarm verification point is faulted, the control panel automatically removes
power from all resettable points connected to the areas Reset Sensors output. Power
is removed for 4.5 seconds. Whenever a sensor reset is performed (manually from the
keypad or automatically as part of the alarm verification process), the control panel
ignores alarm or trouble conditions from the resettable points for the amount of time
programmed in Restart Time. After Restart Time has expired, a 65 second
confirmation window begins. If the alarm verification point is still in alarm, or faults
again during the confirmation window, or if a different alarm verification point in the
area faults, an alarm is generated.

Area Type
Default: Regular
Selections:
− Regular
− Master
− Associate
− Shared
This parameter is used to define boundaries between areas. Boundaries are defined
in terms of whether an area can be armed while a user is in another area, whether an
area automatically arms when another area is armed, or whether an area requires
other areas be armed before it is armed.
Regular Will arm or disarm as an independent area.
Master Will not allow arming for this area unless all Associate areas with the
same A# Acct Number are all on exit delay arming or All On. Check Area
displays if the Associate areas have not yet been armed. EXCEPTION: RPS
allows Master areas to be armed without all Associate areas being in the
armed state. A Master area can be disarmed regardless of the armed state
of the other areas in the account. Multiple Master areas can be
programmed in a single account.
IMPORTANT:
Keypad Scope affects master arming. When arming a master area from a
keypad with Keypad Scope set to Panel Wide or Account Wide, all
Associate areas enter Exit Delay as soon as the Master area is armed. If
there is a Shared area within the same account, it begins its Exit Delay
after all Associate areas are armed.
IMPORTANT:
Using the arming sked requires that you first use an arming sked to arm
the Associate areas before using an arming sked to arm the Master area.
Arming Master areas with RPS, Keyswitch, or Auto Close parameters
occurs before all Associate areas are armed.
Associate Will allow arming and disarming regardless of the armed state of the other
areas with the same A# Acct Number . This type of area is used with a
Master Area and is associated by having the same account number. To
schedule the arming of a Master area, two Sked Functions must be
configured to execute in sequence. The first sked must arm all Associate
areas, then the second must arm the Master area(s). Keypads assigned to
Associate areas, when used in conjunction with Shared areas, should have
the KP# Scope programmed to encompass the Shared Area.
IMPORTANT:
Keypads assigned to Associate areas, when used with Shared areas, must have

displayed at associated areas, the shared and
associate areas must share the same account number.
Disarming a Shared areas automatically disarm when any
Shared Area Associate area in the panel is disarmed. Shared areas
can not be disarmed by passcode, tokens/cards,
keyswitch, sub-controls or RPS.
Shared Area When Shared areas automatically begin to arm, the
Arming arming is based on the A# Exit Dly Time programmed
Sequence for the Area # where the keypad has been assigned.
Shared Area If a point is faulted in the Shared area, Check Area will
Not Ready display on the Associate keypad that is arming the last
Associate area. Associate area Keypads can display
faults from Shared areas as long as the Shared areas
fall within the scope of the Associate area.
Force Arming When Check Area is displayed, press the NEXT key
a Shared until the Force Arm? prompt is shown. Pressing the
Area ENTER key will force arm the Shared area if: the user
has authority to bypass points, the point is
bypassable, AND the number of faulted points does
not exceed the force arm max amount for the Shared
area. Remember to include the Shared area in the
Associate area's scope.
Viewing [VIEW AREA STATUS] can be used from a keypad
Shared Area outside of the Shared area to view the Shared areas
Armed Status armed state.
Silencing Shared area alarms and troubles can be silenced from
Sounders in any keypad.
the Shared To silence sounders, the user must have an authority
Area level assigned to the Shared area.
Access If the entry area is armed and is a Shared area, then
Control the exit delay will restart and allow a user to walk to
Readers an Associate area and disarm. If the token/card reader
Assigned to assigned to the Shared area includes any Associate
the Shared area in the D## KP# Scope (in the ACCESS CONTROL
Area section, both the Associate area and Shared area will
disarm when the token/card is presented.
Closing If closing reports for Shared areas are required,

Two Man Rule?

Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
Set this parameter to Yes to require that two valid passcodes are entered, using the
same keypad, to disarm the area. It is recommended that you use this parameter in an
area that is disarmed from All On using a keypad with Area Wide scope. An alarm
condition occurs if entry delay ends before the second valid passcode is entered.
If the area is already in an alarm condition, the first passcode entry silences the
alarm. The second passcode entry disarms the area.
If the second passcode is entered using a different keypad than the first passcode,
the second keypad displays a warning that the Two Man Rule is already running. Enter
both passcodes using the same keypad.
The area scope that is disarmed is determined by the first passcode that starts the
Two Man Rule. A single area keypad (with Area Wide scope) is required for this
feature.
You can create a custom function that will disarm the area using passcode disarm.
Set this parameter to Yes in facilities that require a higher level of security to gain
access to the secured area. For example, a bank might enable this parameter to gain
access to the vault.
IMPORTANT:
− If this parameter is enabled, set the Scope parameter for keypads in the affected areas to
"Area Wide."
− You should not set Two Man Rule to Yes in an area that also has Early Ambush set to
Yes.
− This function only works when you use passcode disarm.
− To comply with SIA CP-01 False Alarm Reduction, set this parameter to No for all
enabled areas. See SIA CP-01 Verification for more information.
Yes: Two valid and unique passcodes, entered using the same keypad, are required to
disarm the area.
No: One passcode with a valid authority level can disarm the area.

Bell Test
Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
Provide alarm output from the output programmed at A# Alarm Bell after the closing
report has been confirmed or the exit delay time has expired.
Bell Test After Closing Confirmation
In areas that report opening and closing activity, the bell test occurs after the control
panel sends the closing report and receives the acknowledgment from the central
station receiver. For proper operation of the bell test after closing confirmation, the
following rules apply:
− The control panel must report opening and closings to the central station.
− Restricted openings and closings, and opening and closing windows, should not
be used.
Area Armed Confirmation
In areas that do not report opening and closing activity, the alarm bell output for this
area is activated for two seconds after exit time expires.
IMPORTANT: When more than one area is armed at the same time (for example, ARM ALL
AREAS? function is used), the bell sounds for two seconds with a two-second pause
between each bell activation if all areas have the same exit delay time programmed.
Otherwise, the bell test occurs as each area is armed and it complete its exit delay time.
When areas are armed simultaneously and report to the central station, the bell test occurs
as each area is confirmed by the central station receiver.
Yes: Initiate bell test.
No: Do not initiate bell test.

Area Wide Parameters > Area/Bell Parameters > Bell Test

Account O/C
Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
This parameter determines if account opening and closing reports are generated by
this area. Set this parameter the same for all areas in the account.
IMPORTANT: Account numbers are sent over the network to the central station receiver.
Yes: Send opening and closing reports by account.
Use this selection if the control panel sends reports to an automation system that
cannot interpret multiple area opening/closing reports.
An account opening report is generated when the first area in an account is opened
(disarmed). After the account opening report is sent, disarming other areas in the
account does not generate another account opening report. An account closing report
is generated only when the last area in an account is closed (armed). Account
opening and closing reports do not contain any area information.
IMPORTANT: If an account opening or closing is generated while an opening or closing
window for this area is in effect, and Disable O/C in Window is set to Yes, the report is not
sent. Bosch recommends that all areas sharing the same account number use the same
opening and closing window times.
No: Do not send opening and closing reports by account.

Reports are always logged.
Yes: Do not send opening and closing reports to the central station if they occur
inside an active window.
If an opening or closing report occurs outside of a window, send it with an early or
late modifier. See O/C Windows.
The active window must be a closing window for closing reports. It must be an
opening window for opening reports.
No: Send opening and closing reports to the central station even when they occur
inside a programmed window. If an opening or closing occurs outside of the
appropriate window, it reports but does not have an early or late modifier.

Restricted O/C
Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
This parameter determines if this area can restrict opening and closing report activity.
A restricted opening report means the control panel sent an area opening report only
when the area is disarmed after a non-fire alarm.
A restricted closing report means the control panel sent an area closing report only
when the area has been All On with controlled points that were faulted during the
arming sequence. The sequence of reports generated by a restricted closing are: WAS
FORCE ARMED, FORCED POINT, FORCED CLOSE.
Windows do not prevent restricted opening and closing reports from being sent. Early
or late designations are not added to opening/closing reports when they are sent
according to the rules for restricted opening/closing reports.
Yes: Restrict opening and closing reports for this area. A# Area O/C must be set to
Yes to generate restricted opening and closing reports.
IMPORTANT: If a passcode is not required for arming or disarming and this parameter is set
to Yes, the area only sends restricted opening and closing reports. In this case, restricted
reports are sent without user ID.
No: Do not restrict opening and closing reports for this area. Regardless of
programming in L## Restricted O/C , reports are not restricted in this area when this
item is set to No.
IMPORTANT: WAS FORCE ARMED and FORCED CLOSE events are still sent to the

7 Custom Function
Custom Functions -- Overview
Custom Functions are a way to simplify use of complex keystroke sequences that can
be entered at the keypad. These items are similar to "speed dialing" on a telephone –
in other words, a custom function can automatically initiate an end user request with
one push of the ENTER key once the custom function text is displayed on the keypad.
You can have up to 16 Custom Functions and restrict the use of these by area and
authority level.
Each Custom Function ### item has an 18 character programmable text. When the
custom function is assigned to the Shortcut Menu Function the user can user the
PREV or NEXT key to scroll to the Custom Function Text.
The user must have the appropriate authority level enabled for the Custom Function
128-143 in the User Interface section, to be capable of using the custom function.

Custom Function Text

Default: Function #
Selections:
This entry determines the menu text displayed at the keypad for the Custom Function
item. Use up to 32 valid characters to represent the functions performed by this
menu item.
Reference
Custom Function > Custom Function Text

Function 1-6
Default: Not in Use
Selections: Refer to the list below.
This parameter sets the type of function to be used as a custom function.
Double-clicking in the Function # entry field displays the universal dialog box. Select a
custom function from the list.
IMPORTANT
Please note that the control panel runs custom functions consecutively with each function in
the list starting immediately after the previous function has begun and without waiting for a
previous function to finish. If you program the control panel to run a function with a delay
time, the next function in the list might result in unexpected behavior. In order to prevent this
situation, you must program a "Delay" function between the two custom functions.
For example: To toggle an output at the end of a Part On Delay with a 30 second exit delay,
set Function 1 to "Part On Delay", set Function 2 to "Delay" with a setting greater than 30
seconds, and set Function 3 to "Toggle Output".

9 Output Parameters
Output Parameters Overview
Outputs provide dry contact (normally open/closed) outputs for LED annunciation
and other applications as well as wet (12vdc on/off) voltage outputs for basic alarm
system functions (such as Bell output, Reset Sensors, etc.). The applications are
endless, but primarily, outputs are used to enhance a systems capability to perform
output functions.
Output Types
− Panel Wide Outputs: These outputs are used to provide an output related to a
"panel wide" indication. For annunciation, these outputs can be used to indicate
"system wide" troubles for power, phone and overall panel summary of alarms,
troubles and supervisory conditions.
− Area Outputs: These outputs are used to provide an output "by the area" that the
output is assigned to. An area can have its own bell and sensor reset indications.
Outputs can also be used to indicate the area armed state and whether any off
normal conditions such as a force arm have occurred.
− On Board Outputs: There are 3 on board 12VDC voltage-outputs which provide
power when activated on the panel. These outputs are default programmed from
the factory as outputs A, B and C. Typically, output A is used for the Bell, output B
is used for an alternate alarm output (such as another bell) and output C is used
for Sensor Reset.
− Off Board Outputs: The panel can also control as many as 128 (for the D9412GV4)
or 64 (for the D7412GV4) dry contact form "C" outputs when up to 16 D8129 or
up to 12 B308 OctoOutput Modules are installed. These outputs are used for Area
Output, Panel Wide Output, and Individual Point Fault Outputs.
Output Follows Point
Outputs can also be used to activate when a point programmed for, Rly Resp Type (in
the point index section), is off normal or in alarm condition.
Output Reports
When output activity is reported to the receiver (see Phone Routing ), on-board
outputs are reported as follows: A = 253, B = 254, C = 255, and others report as 0001
to 0128. Output reports are also stored in the panel memory log.
Controlling Outputs
As mentioned, outputs can be activated depending upon conditions that exist with
the panel. In addition, outputs can be controlled by the user using the [CHG
OUTPUT?] function, Output On/Output Off skeds, and the RPS.
The following programming tips, notes and applications are important for you to
review prior to programming your outputs.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to use the CHANGE OUTPUTS function to toggle outputs
reserved for special functions. Special function outputs are Area and Panel Wide output
functions as well as outputs assigned to Entr Key Rly and Rly Resp Type? .
Output C is always powered ON. Assigning any other output deactivates Output C so
this output can be used for other functions. When Output C is programmed for Reset
Sensors , power is always supplied from the AUX terminal of the panel.
Check output status after reprogramming or resetting the panel. All outputs are
turned off after the panel is reset. Certain output functions are checked by the panel

Area Off
Default: 0
Selections: A, B, C, 0-64
When an area's arming state switches from All On (either delay or instant) to Part On
or Disarmed, the output number configured here activates.
When an area's arming state switches from Part On or Disarmed to All On (either
delay or instant), the output number configured here de-activates.
If the same output number is configured in more than one area's Area Off Output, the
output will only activate when the first area is no longer armed All On. If the same
output number is configured in more than one area's Area Off Output, the output will
only de-activate if all area's using that same output number are armed All On.
The Area Off Output is also affected by the Early Area Armed Output. When Early Area
Armed Output is set to No, the Area Off Output does not activate until the end of exit
delay. When the Early Area Armed Output is set to Yes, the Area Off Output de-
activates as soon as exit delay starts and the area is armed All On.
Note: if the All On - No Exit option is set to Yes and the area switches to Part On at the end of
exit delay, the Area Off Output will activate at that time.
Simply starting entry delay does not affect the state of the output configured in Area
Off.

# -- Index Description
24-Hour
A 24-hour point is not turned on and off from a Keypad. 24 hour points are armed all
the time, and can be used for panic, medical, and police alerts.
24-hour points can be programmed as bypassable. However, the application should
be carefully considered before using the bypassable option. Bypassable 24-hour
points should be programmed to Buzz on Fault.
When a 24-hour point is bypassed, the report should be sent as it occurs. If the area
contains all 24-hour points, the area is never armed or disarmed; therefore, a
deferred bypass report is not sent.
24-hour protection for fire doors, roof hatches, etc. Instead of programming this type
of protection as a 24-hour point, consider using a Part On point type with a Point
Response of 9 to E. 24-hour points do not show faults when an arming function is
entered, but Part On points do. When programming for this type of protection, you
should consider using the Buzz On Fault and Local While Disarmed options.
Part On
Part On points are armed with all arming functions. Points programmed as perimeter
can also be armed as a group (using Part Oning functions) separately from points
programmed as interior. This lets the user partially arm the system to establish
perimeter protection and still occupy the interior of the protected premises.
Part On points can be programmed to initiate entry delay time. If the point initiates
entry delay, it can also initiate an entry tone.
When a Part On point is programmed for entry delay, entry delay time is always
provided. If the area is in entry delay when a second Part On point trips, the panel
compares the remaining entry delay time to the time programmed for the second
Perimeter Point. If the second Part On point's entry delay time is less than the
remaining time, it shortens the entry delay time.
Part On points programmed for an instant Point Response , generate an alarm
immediately when tripped, even during entry or exit delay.
Interior
Interior points are armed only by arming All On the area. They are not armed when
using Part Oning functions. These points are typically used to monitor interior
detection devices such as interior doors, motion detectors, photoelectric beams, and

Interior points can be either Instant or Delayed:

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Program Entry Guide 2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459

154 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

− Instant: Interior points are usually programmed for an instant alarm (see Point
Response ). Points programmed for instant alarms generate alarms immediately,
even during entry or exit delay.
− Delayed: Interior Points can be programmed for a delayed Point Response . A
delayed response means that if the point is tripped while the area is armed, it
initiates entry delay. It does not generate an alarm until entry delay expires.
When an interior point is programmed for entry delay, entry delay time is always
provided. If the area is in entry delay when the interior point trips, the control panel
compares the remaining entry delay time to the time programmed for the interior
point. If the interior point's entry delay time is less than the remaining time, it
shortens the entry delay time.
Delayed points can also initiate an entry tone at the keypad (see Entry Tone Off ).
IMPORTANT: In some cases, you might need to create an interior point that causes an
instant alarm only if entry delay protection is not tripped first. Use Interior Follower to create
this type of protection.
Interior Follower
Interior follower points are armed only by all on arming the area. They are not armed
when using Part Oning functions.
An interior follower point does not create an alarm if it trips while the area is in entry
delay. An interior follower does not change the amount of remaining entry delay time.
If no entry delay is in effect when the interior follower trips, it creates an instant
alarm.
You must program a delayed Point Response (4, 5, 6, 7, or 8) for an interior follower
point. The control panel ignores the entry in Entry Delay for an interior follower point.
IMPORTANT: It might be necessary to increase the Debounce count for interior follower
points to prevent interior follower points from going into alarm before the control panel
recognizes that a Part On delay point has been faulted. Program the interior follower point's
Debounce for one number higher than the debounce count on Part On delay points.
Keyswitch Maintained
Program Point Response as 1. Do not connect initiating devices to a keyswitch point.
− Normal: The area is disarmed.
− Open: When this point changes from normal to open, the area arms.
− Short: A short is a trouble while the area is disarmed. A short is an alarm while the
area is armed. When this point changes from shorted to normal or open, it
restores.
If you program Point Response as 2, the point responds as follows:
− Normal: When this point changes from open to normal, the area arms.
− Open: The area is disarmed.
− Short: A short is a trouble while the area is disarmed. A short is an alarm while the
area is armed. When this point changes from shorted to normal or open, it
restores.
Trouble and restoral reports are not sent if Local Disarmed is set to Yes.
Alarm and restoral reports are not sent if Local Armed is set to Yes.
IMPORTANT: Point Response 2 is required for Inovonics FA113 Wireless Keyfobs.
Keyswitch Momentary
Used for area arming and disarming. Point Response must be programmed 1. Do not
connect initiating devices to a keyswitch point.
− N–>S–>N: When this point momentarily changes from normal to shorted to
normal, it toggles the armed state of the area.
− Open: An open is a trouble while the point is disarmed. An open is an alarm while
the point is armed.
When this point changes from open to normal, it restores.

Trouble and restoral reports are not sent if Local Disarmed is set to Yes.
Trouble and restoral reports are not sent if Local Armed is set to Yes.
Open/Close Point
Used for point arming and disarming. Point Response must be programmed 1. Local
bells are silenced through the keypad.
− Normal: The point is armed and sends a POINT CLOSING. Point Closing is not
sent if Local Armed is set to Yes.
− Open: An open is an alarm while the point is armed. An open is a trouble while the
point is disarmed. ALARM and RESTORAL reports are not sent if Local Disarmed is
set to Yes.
− Short: The point is disarmed and sends a POINT OPENING. A Point OPening is
not sent if Local Armed is set to Yes.
Fire Point
This point type generates a Fire Alarm when the instant alarm response is activated
(Refer to 24-hour point response section). Fire Alarms are the highest priority event in
the control panel. Refer to Fire Point Characteristics section for further details.
Aux AC Supervision
This point type monitors the AC power of an auxiliary power supply. When the point is
in an off-normal state, the control panel waits for the time programmed in AC Fail
Time before generating a Point Trouble. This point type does not use Point Response;
therefore, no alarm condition occurs.
If this point type is bypassed, 24 HOUR PT BYPASSED is shown on the keypads.
Gas Point
This point type monitors gas detection sensors and generates Gas Alarm when instant
alarm response is activated (Refer to 24-hour point response section).
Custom Function
This point type activates a Custom Function when the CF point response is activated
(Refer to the Custom Function Point response table). The Custom Function activated
is configured in Custom Function parameter.
Custom Function points do not support the following features:
− Buzz on Fault
− Watch Point, Output Response Type
− Display as Device
− Cross Point, Invisible Point
− Silent Bell
− Local While Disarmed

Point Responses — Overview

Applications for Point Responses 9, D, and E

You can combine Point Responses 9, D and E with perimeter Point Types to create
more flexible 24-hour protection. Unlike 24-hour points, a faulted Part On point with a
point Response of D and E displays at the keypad when arming. Like a 24-hour point,
a point programmed this way can generate alarms whether the area is armed or
disarmed.
Combining Point Response 9 with the Local While Disarmed feature provides off-site
reporting when the area is armed, but only local alarm annunciation when the area is
disarmed.

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Program Entry Guide 2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459

156 en | Table of Contents Control Panels

Combining Point Response 9 with the Local While Armed feature provides off-site
reporting when the area is disarmed, but only local alarm annunciation when the area
is armed.
Point Response E Use this for Zonex/Asic motion detectors. This allows troubles to
report while the panel is All Oned.
Point Response F will not sound local Keypads but will activate Output Response
Type and keypad faults. To annunciate the off-normal state at a keypad, set Display as
Device to Yes, and/or Buzz On Fault as 1 or 2. This point response does not generate
alarms or activate alarm output.
Point Response 8, 9, A, B, and C provide supervisory (24 hour) reporting.
Fire Point Characteristics
− Reporting: Fire reports are the first events that the control panel sends when a
group of events occur.
− Visual Annunciation: Fire Troubles continue to scroll until the trouble is cleared.
Once acknowledged, a FIRE TROUBLE scroll lets the end user know that a fire
point, or group of Fire points, is still in trouble. Panel Wide Outputs Summary Fire
and Summary Fire Trouble activate if a output is assigned when any fire point
goes into alarm or is in trouble.
− Audible Annunciation: A Fire point activates the Fire Bell. The amount of time and
pattern of the output activation is programmed by area in Fire Time and Fire
Pattern.
− Supervisory: A Fire point can send a FIRE SUPERVISORY report and activate the
Summary Supervisory Fire and Summary Fire Trouble panel wide outputs with a
Point Response of 8-9-A-B-C.
− Alarm Verification: A Fire point can delay an alarm by the time programmed in
Restart Time in the Area parameters. Combined with Resettable, a fire point also
resets the electrical circuit for the amount of restart time.
− Reset Sensor: A fire device that requires resetting can be manually reset using the
reset sensor output for the area it is assigned to.
− Fire Walk: Use the Fire Walk function to test fire points in the system.
To provide an audible tone for a Fire Supervisory point that has been restored, use
Output Response Type and connect to a graphic annunciator.
You should dedicate a Fire annunciation device to all your fire points if they are
assigned to a single area in a multiple area system. Special "red" Keypads and
annunciators with specific keys for fire systems are designed for this type of
application (D1256 and D1257).

When programming the Point Response for Inovonics Wireless Transmitters,

remember that regardless of how the transmitter is programmed (Normally Open vs.
Normally Closed), the Wireless Interface always sends the off-normal state to the
control panel as a short and a tamper condition as an open. As a result, typical Point
Responses for the Inovonics transmitters would include 0, 1, 6, 7, and E for
Controlled points and 0 and 1 for 24-hour burg points. When programming a
transmitter as a fire point, a Point Response of 1 is recommended.
IMPORTANT: Wireless transmitters are not UL Listed with the D9412GV4 or D7412GV4
control panels in fire or burglary applications.

Entry Delay
Default: 30 seconds
Selections: 5 - 600 seconds (5-second increments)
Use this option to enter the amount of entry delay time that a user has after faulting a
controlled point (Part On, Interior or Interior Follower) with a delayed response (D)
(Point Response) of 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.
On the keypad's display, DISARM NOW appears for the duration of the time
programmed when the point is faulted in the delay condition. The keypad display
alternates between DISARM NOW and the point text of the point that caused the area
to enter into Entry Delay.
If this time is allowed to expire before disarming or if the point is faulted to an instant
response (I) an alarm occurs.
Make entries in five-second increments. The programmer does not allow off-
increment entries.
Passcode Disarm activates when the last digit of the passcode is pressed. The
[ENTER] key is allowed, but not required, when entering a passcode during Entry
Delay.
If a subsequent perimeter or interior follower delay point trips while the area is
already in entry delay, the control panel adjusts the delay time to the delay point with
the least amount of delay time.
When a user enters an area, a Part On point is faulted and Entry Delay starts. If an
interior point must fault during Entry Delay to allow the user to disarm the area at a
keypad, program Point Type as Interior Follower.

Entry Tone Off

Default: No (for all Point Indexes)
Selections: Yes/No
This option enables/disables the entry delay warning tone for this point.
Entry Tone can also be turned off when programming your Entry Tone in the keypad
section which allows you to manage the tone by keypad.
You might want to disable the entry tone in high security applications where you do
not want to annunciate entry delay.
Yes: Disable entry delay tone when this point is faulted to the delay response.
No: A tone sounds at keypads when this point initiates entry delay.
CAUTION: Do not set this parameter to No on points used to notify the user to disarm the
system. The possibility of false alarms increases if the entry delay warning is not used.

Silent Bell
Default:
− Point Index 1: No
− Point Index 2: Yes
− Point Indexes 3 to 31: No
Selections: Yes/No
This parameter determines whether the bell and keypad sounders activate upon an
alarm event for non-fire/gas points. Fire and Gas points ignore this parameter setting
and always activate the bell and sound the alarm tone at keypads when this point
goes into alarm.
If you want this point to eventually ring the bell because the message failed to reach
the central station receiver, set Audible After 2 Failures to Yes.
IMPORTANT: To meet UL864 requirements, set this parameter to No.
Yes: Activate the Silent Alarm output when this point goes into alarm. Do not activate
the Alarm Bell output or keypad alarm sounders. This setting only applies to non-
fire/gas points.
No: Activate the Fire Bell, Gas Bell or Alarm Bell output and sound the alarm tone at
Keypads when this point goes into alarm. If this is a fire point, it activates the Fire
Bell. If this point is a gas point, it activates the Gas Bell, otherwise, it activates the
Alarm Bell. The amount of time and pattern of the output activation is programmed by
area.

Ring Until Restored

Default: No (for all Point Indexes)
Selections: Yes/No
Use this parameter for fire or gas applications to meet the requirement that audible
alarms cannot be silenced until the fault condition clears.
IMPORTANT: If the point restores and the originating alarm is not silenced from the keypad,
the alarm output continues until Fire Bell or Gas Bell time expires. If the point does not
restore, the alarm output continues even after bell time expires.
Yes: Fire or Gas Bell output and keypad sounders for this point cannot be
deactivated, from a keypad or upon bell timeout, until the point is restored to normal.
No: Fire or Gas Bell output and keypad sounders for this point can be deactivated,
either from a keypad or upon bell timeout, whether or not the point has been
restored to normal.

Audible After 2 Fails

Default: No (for all Point Indexes)
Selections: Yes/No
Yes: For silent points, Alarm Bell output activates after two failed attempts to send
the report to the central station.
No: Silent Bell points do not cause the Alarm Bell output to activate even if the report
does not get to the central station receiver.
When set to Yes, if the report fails to reach the central station after two attempts, a
silent alarm rings the alarm bell. A silent alarm is generated when a point with Silent
Bell set to Yes is alarmed.
When a point programmed for Silent Bell is faulted, Burg Time starts even though the
bell is not yet ringing. It could take up to three minutes before the second attempt
has failed. Because of this, ensure Burg Time is set to provide the amount of bell time
you would like, minus the three minutes it might take before the bell actually begins
to ring.

how the point was tripped.
A point can be bypassed at the keypad using the BYPASS? function, which reports as
a COMMAND BYPASS. When bypassed by Sked function Bypass a Point, the report is
SKED BYPASS. When bypassed by RPS, RPS BYPASS is sent after RPS disconnects
from the control panel. When swinger-shunted, a SWINGER SHUNT is sent.
If the point is not bypassable, it cannot be bypassed in any of the above cases.

Defer Bypass Report

Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
Use this parameter to prevent points that are bypassed by the user (COMMAND
BYPASS)from occurring until the area is armed. Once the area is armed, the bypassed
points as well as any point being bypassed during the arming sequence report as
POINT BYPASS along with the closing report.
To report the bypass at occurrence and when the area is armed, set this parameter
and Report Bypass at Occurrence to Yes. A COMMAND BYPASS report is sent as soon as
it occurs, and a POINT BYPASS report is sent with the closing report.
WARNING:
− Bypass reports do not occur when arming the area if the closing report is suppressed by
Open/Close windows, or are not being reported.
− Bypass reports for 24 hour points are not sent if this parameter and Report Bypass at
Occurrence are both set to No.
Yes: Send a POINT BYPASS report with the closing report instead of a COMMAND
BYPASS when the point is bypassed by a user.
No: Do not defer bypass reports.

Cross Point
Default: No
Selections: Yes/No
IMPORTANT:
− The Cross Point function is fixed to a maximum of two points per group. There are 31
available groups.
− Only use this parameter with non-fire points.
The cross point option reduces false alarms. Points can be programmed so that the
control panel needs to see an alarm condition within a programmed period of time
(see Cross Point Timer) from at least two points within a cross point group (see table
below) before the system sends cross point alarm events. This parameter must be set
to Yes for points to generate cross point alarm events.

The GV4 control panels support the following number of cross point groups:

− D9412GV4: 31 groups
− D7412GV4: 10 groups
Each cross point group consists of eight points, and is identified by the point
numbers in them (for example, Cross Points 1-8, Cross Points 9-16, and so on).
A maximum of two points must be programmed to meet the cross point criteria.
Point numbers from different cross point groups do not affect each other.
When a point with this parameter set to Yes detects an alarm, the control panel starts
the cross point timer. If a second cross point in the same cross point group detects
an alarm while the cross point timer is active, the control panel sends cross point
alarm events for both points.
A cross point is considered to be in alarm when it meets the criteria for instant alarm
response. The cross point index must have Point Response set to a value that
generates an instant alarm.
If a single cross point detects an alarm and stays faulted throughout the cross point
timer, the system sends a standard alarm report for that point.
If a single cross point detects an alarm, then restores, and does not detect any other
condition, the system sends an unverified event for that point. A second alarm on the
first point does not create an alarm event, but rather an unverified event.
The cross point function applies only to alarm conditions. It does not apply to
supervisory or trouble conditions. Points programmed with point response D
(Delayed) eventually enter into an alarm if the area is not disarmed in time.
The cross point function does not activate when a fault occurs on a controlled point
(Point Types Part On, Interior and Interior Follower) in the disarmed, Entry Delay, or
Exit Delay states.
If an abort window delay is needed for the cross zone alarm, all cross points in the
group must have Alarm Abort set to Yes.

Use this parameter only with fire or gas points to designate them for alarm
verification.
Alarm verification is a feature of automatic fire detection and alarm systems to reduce
false alarms where sensors report alarm conditions for a minimum period of time, or
confirm alarm conditions within a given period of time after being reset, in order to
be accepted as a valid alarm initiation signal.
IMPORTANT:
- Do not enable the Cross Point Feature in Point Indexes that are designated for fire
points.
- Check the sensor's datasheet for the stabilization time and enter a value at least 5
seconds higher than the longest time specified by any sensor in the loop.
- Check with your Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to determine the maximum
verification time allowed.

2014.03 | 05 | F.01U.265.459 Program Entry Guide Bosch Security Systems, Inc.

Control Panels Points | en 169

Alarm verification points are programmed individually to activate the verification

feature. Refer to Point Index. Any resettable fire point can activate alarm verification
for the area to which it is assigned. Bosch recommends using separate area alarm
verification outputs.
To enable alarm verification on a point, set Point Type to Fire, and Alarm Verify and
Resettable to Yes.
When an alarm verification point is faulted, the control panel automatically removes
power from all resettable points connected to the areas Reset Sensors output. Power
is removed for 4.5 seconds. When power is reapplied, the control panel ignores
alarms from resettable points for the amount of time programmed in Restart Time.
After Restart Time has expired, a 65 second confirmation window begins. If the alarm
verification point is still in alarm, or faults again during the confirmation window, or if
a different alarm verification point in the area faults, an alarm is generated.

Resettable
Default:
− Point Indexes 1 to 3: No
− Point Indexes 4 to 5: Yes
− Point Indexes 6 to 31: No
Selections: Yes/No
Use this parameter if this is a powered point that requires interruption of power to
reset a latched alarm condition. The resettable point function is typically used with
smoke detectors and glass break detectors.
When initiated either through a Fire Walk Test or the keypad function RESET
SENSOR?, or by RPS, power is interrupted to the device for 4-1/2 seconds. SENSOR
RESET is reported to the central station receiver.
IMPORTANT:
− When a sensor reset is initiated, the control panel does not accept alarms from any
points in which this parameter is set to Yes. During the 4-1/2 second reset time combined
with restart time (configured in Restart Time), alarms or troubles from these points are
ignored.
− Do not mix fire and intrusion devices on the same powered loop.
− To meet UL864 requirements, set this parameter to Yes for applicable resettable points.
− Setting this parameter to No prevents a resettable point from going back into alarm after
an alarm annunciator reset.
Yes: This point is reset by the RESET SENSORS? function and during the alarm
verification sequence.
No: This point is not resettable.

Alarm Abort
Default:
− Point Indexes 2 - 6, 22, 31: No
− All others: Yes
Selections: Yes or No
This parameter allows points with the associated point index to delay a burglar alarm
(non-fire) event for the time period specified in Abort Window.
An alarm is aborted by performing an alarm silence operation before this time elapses
at a keypad showing the burglar alarm condition. When an alarm is successfully
aborted, the keypad shows an optional ALARM NOT SENT message. See Abort Display
for more information.
IMPORTANT:
− This parameter does not apply to fire alarms or invisible point alarms.
− To comply with UL standards, the total amount of time entered in Entry Delay and Alarm
Event Abort must not exceed 1 minute.
− When upgrading a non-GV4 control panel account to a GV4 control panel account, RPS
forces the default to No.
Yes: If the point goes into alarm, the system delays the alarm report for the amount of
time specified in Abort Window.
No: If the point goes into alarm, the system immediately sends the alarm report.

Delay Response, Disarmed

Default: 00:00

00:00 = disabled
This parameter sets the length of time (MM:SS) the control panel waits after a
disarmed point faults before annunciating or reporting the fault. This parameter only
applies to the following point types when disarmed:
Part On
Part On points are armed with all arming functions. Points programmed as perimeter
can also be armed as a group (using Part Oning functions) separately from points
programmed as interior. This lets the user partially arm the system to establish
perimeter protection and still occupy the interior of the protected premises.
Part On points can be programmed to initiate entry delay time. If the point initiates
entry delay, it can also initiate an entry tone.
When a Part On point is programmed for entry delay, entry delay time is always
provided. If the area is in entry delay when a second Part On point trips, the panel
compares the remaining entry delay time to the time programmed for the second
Perimeter Point. If the second Part On point's entry delay time is less than the
remaining time, it shortens the entry delay time.
Part On points programmed for an instant Point Response , generate an alarm
immediately when tripped, even during entry or exit delay.
Interior
Interior points are armed only by arming All On the area. They are not armed when
using Part Oning functions. These points are typically used to monitor interior

detection devices such as interior doors, motion detectors, photoelectric beams, and
carpet mats.
Interior points can be either Instant or Delayed:
− Instant: Interior points are usually programmed for an instant alarm (see Point
Response ). Points programmed for instant alarms generate alarms immediately,
even during entry or exit delay.
− Delayed: Interior Points can be programmed for a delayed Point Response . A
delayed response means that if the point is tripped while the area is armed, it
initiates entry delay. It does not generate an alarm until entry delay expires.
When an interior point is programmed for entry delay, entry delay time is always
provided. If the area is in entry delay when the interior point trips, the control panel
compares the remaining entry delay time to the time programmed for the interior
point. If the interior point's entry delay time is less than the remaining time, it
shortens the entry delay time.
Delayed points can also initiate an entry tone at the keypad (see Entry Tone Off ).
IMPORTANT: In some cases, you might need to create an interior point that causes an
instant alarm only if entry delay protection is not tripped first. Use Interior Follower to create
this type of protection.
Interior Follower
Interior follower points are armed only by all on arming the area. They are not armed
when using Part Oning functions.
An interior follower point does not create an alarm if it trips while the area is in entry
delay. An interior follower does not change the amount of remaining entry delay time.
If no entry delay is in effect when the interior follower trips, it creates an instant
alarm.
You must program a delayed Point Response (4, 5, 6, 7, or 8) for an interior follower
point. The control panel ignores the entry in Entry Delay for an interior follower point.
IMPORTANT: It might be necessary to increase the Debounce count for interior follower
points to prevent interior follower points from going into alarm before the control panel
recognizes that a Part On delay point has been faulted. Program the interior follower point's
Debounce for one number higher than the debounce count on Part On delay points.

24-Hour
A 24-hour point is not turned on and off from a Keypad. 24 hour points are armed all
the time, and can be used for panic, medical, and police alerts.
24-hour points can be programmed as bypassable. However, the application should
be carefully considered before using the bypassable option. Bypassable 24-hour
points should be programmed to Buzz on Fault.
When a 24-hour point is bypassed, the report should be sent as it occurs. If the area
contains all 24-hour points, the area is never armed or disarmed; therefore, a
deferred bypass report is not sent.
24-hour protection for fire doors, roof hatches, etc. Instead of programming this type
of protection as a 24-hour point, consider using a Part On point type with a Point
Response of 9 to E. 24-hour points do not show faults when an arming function is
entered, but Part On points do. When programming for this type of protection, you
should consider using the Buzz On Fault and Local While Disarmed options.
Part On
Part On points are armed with all arming functions. Points programmed as perimeter

assigning a door point.
When a POPIT goes missing, the control panel generates the following responses
based on the point type:
− Fire points generate Missing Trouble responses.
− Non-fire 24-hour points generate Missing Alarm responses.
− Non-fire, non- 24-hour points generate Missing Alarm responses while armed and
Trouble responses while disarmed.
Exception: Non-fire, non-24-hour points that have a Point Response of 9 - D will
generate a Missing Alarm response while disarmed.
POPIT modules monitor their sensor loops for three conditions, loop normal, loop
open, and loop shorted. They report these three conditions to the control panel. The
panel uses point programming to interpret the sensor loop information reported by
the POPITs and make the appropriate system response.

12 Schedules
12.1 Open/Close Windows
Opening/Closing Overview
Use these windows to set a schedule for disarming and arming. The disarming and
arming schedules provide several independent features:
− Suppress normal opening and/or closing reports when Disable O/C in Window is
set to Yes.
− Generate a FAIL TO OPEN report if the area is not disarmed on schedule when
Fail To Open is set to Yes.
− Provide a warning tone and [PLEASE CLOSE NOW] display at the keypad when it
is time to arm the area.
− Generate a FAIL TO CLOSE report if the area is not armed on schedule when Fail
To Close is set to Yes.
− Automatically arm the area at the end of the closing window when Auto Close is
set to Yes.
Opening and closing schedules can be set up independently. For example, if you only
want to use features provided by closing windows, leave times blank in the opening
windows prompts and program closing window times.

Opening Window Timeline

Example using two opening windows on the same day

A. Areas that are disarmed between midnight and 6 AM generate Opening reports.
B. Areas that are disarmed between 6 AM and 7 AM generate Early to Open reports.
C. If the area is disarmed between 7 AM and 8 AM regular Opening Reports are generated. If
Disable O/C in Window is programmed as "yes" the Opening Report is not transmitted to
the central station.
D. If the area is not disarmed by 8:01 AM then a Fail to Open event is generated if Fail to
Open is programmed as "yes" in Opening and Closing Options.
E. If the user disarms the area between 8:01 AM and 12:59 PM then a Late to Open event is
generated.
F. Areas that are disarmed between 1 PM and 2 PM generate Early to Open reports.
G. If the area is disarmed between 2 PM and 3 PM regular Opening Reports are generated. If
Disable O/C in Window is programmed as "yes" the Opening Report is not transmitted to
the central station.
H. If the area is not disarmed by 3:01 PM then a Fail to Open event is generated if Fail to
Open is programmed as "yes" in Opening and Closing Options.
I. If the user disarms the area between 3:01 PM and 11:59 PM then a Late to Open event is
generated.

Open Early Begin

Default: 00:00
Selections: HH:MM (hours and minutes) 00:00 to 23:59
This parameter is one of three required to create an opening window. To finish
programming an opening window, Open Window Start and Open Window Stop also
must be programmed.
The time entered in this parameter is the earliest time that the user is allowed to
open an area before the Open Window Start time. If opening and closing reports are
enabled, disarming the area between midnight and the Open Early Begin time
generates an opening report.
− If Disable O/C in Window is set to Yes and the area is disarmed between the Open
Early Begin time and the Open Window Start time, the opening event is sent with
an Early to Open modifier. If the Open Early Begin time is the same as the Open
Window Start time, no opening event is sent.
− If Disable O/C in Window is set to No and the area is disarmed at any time, an
opening event is sent without an Early to Open or Late to Open modifier.
Disarming the area between the Open Window Start and Open Window Stop times
creates a local event in the control panel event log, but does not send the opening
report to the central station.
Disarming the area between the Open Window Stop time and before the next
window's Open Early Begin time (or midnight, whichever is earlier) generates an
opening event with a Late to Open modifier.
When configuring multiple windows to operate on the same day, ensure that they are
added to the system in chronological order. For example, if three windows are
programmed to execute on Tuesday, Window 1 (W1) must occur before Window 2
(W2), and Window 2 must occur before Window 3 (W3).
IMPORTANT:
− Avoid programming the Open Early Begin time before a time that is between another
window's Open Window Start and Open Window Stop times.
− Do not program a window to cross the midnight boundary.
Disabled windows have a 00:00 beginning time. If the entry for this parameter is
00:00, but times are programmed for Open Window Start and Open Window Stop,
the window is disabled.
To disable the window, all hours and minutes spaces must be 00:00.
IMPORTANT: Ensure time entries use a 24-hour clock. For example, midnight = 00:00; 7:00
AM = 07:00; 2:45 PM = 14:45; 11:59 PM = 23:59.
If the window needs to activate on the same day you program it, reboot the control
panel to activate today's window.

programmed.
The time entered in this parameter is the earliest time the user can close an area
before the Close Window Start time. If opening and closing reports are enabled,
arming the area between midnight and the time entered in this parameter generates a
closing report.
− If Disable O/C in Window is set to Yes and the area is armed between the Close

− If Disable O/C in Window is set to No and the area is armed at any time, a closing
event is sent without the Early to Close or Late to Close modifiers.
Arming the area between the Close Window Start and Close Window Stop times
creates a local event in the control panel event log, but does not send the closing
report to the central station.
Arming the area after the Close Window Stop time and before the next window's
Close Early Begin time (or midnight, whichever is earlier) generates a closing event
with a Late to Close modifier.
When configuring multiple windows to operate on the same day, ensure that they are

Skeds — Overview
Use the SKEDS module to program the control panel to automatically execute
functions-that are otherwise initiated by the end user at the keypad. Each Sked can
be programmed to occur at a specific time on a specific date or day of the week. Up
to 40 Skeds can be programmed.
A Sked can be edited from the keypad if Time Edit is set to Yes. The date and time
can be changed using the [CHANGE SKED?] function.
Each Sked Number can be programmed with one of 24 functions for the Function. A
function is what is executed. In addition to the function, a choice must be made to
what is affected by the function. (e.g. When choosing a Disarm Sked, the disarming is
the function while the areas that are being chosen to become disarmed are what is
affected).
The functions and their associated parameters are explained in detail following the
Function prompt.
Each Sked can be programmed with up to four Holiday Indexes. The Holiday Indexes
can be used to execute the Sked on the Holidays in addition to the Date or Day(s) of
the Week, or, they can be used to prevent the Sked from executing on the Holidays
(see Xept Holiday ).

programmed, the point assigned to the door will indicate a Trouble, Alarm, or Fault at
the keypad.
Regardless of how the door point is programmed, the system generates a Trouble
Door Left Open event while the system is disarmed and an Alarm Door Left Open
event if the system is armed and the door is held open beyond Extend Time. "Door
Closed - Restoral" events are generated after the door is held open past Extend Time
and the door has returned to normal.

15.3 IP Communicator
IP Communicator Overview
The B426 (B420) Ethernet Communication Module (NIM) is used to connect to the
control panel over an Ethernet network. Typical uses include PC front-end
(automation) software packages, network RPS connection for off-site programming,
diagnostic troubleshooting, NetCom Central Station Receiver (CSR) reporting, and
history retrieval. Module bus supervision is enforced when the SDI2 communication
module is used in a central station reporting route.

Capacity
Panel type Modules
supported
D9412GV4 2
D7412GV4 2

You can use one or both communication modules for central station reporting or RPS
communications. Optionally, you can use one of the B426 (B420) modules for
communication with automation software. While in this mode, you cannot use the
module to communicate with RPS nor with the central station.
IMPORTANT:
− To prevent communication loss, the configuration sent to the control panel for the B426
(B420) module takes effect after RPS disconnects from the control panel.
− If the B426 (B420) is configured through the B426 (B420) configuration web interface to
disable control panel programming (that is, Panel Programming Enable is set to No),
then RPS programming of the B426 (B420) is accepted by the control panel, but not
applied to the B426 (B420). The Panel Programming Enable parameter is not available
in RPS.

IPv6 Mode
Default: No
Selections:
− Yes = IPv6 enabled
− No = IPv6 disabled
Yes When using a B426 module, set IPv6 Mode to Yes.
No When using a B420 module, set IPv6 Mode to No.
This parameter controls which configuration items are available based on the mode
being used.
A B426 module is required for IPv6 communications.
1 When IPv6 mode is set to Yes and a B420 is actually connected, one of the two
following situations occurs:
When a B420 is connected, the control panel configures the B420 based on the
settings provided by RPS, even if RPS enabled IPv6 mode. DHCP must be set to yes,
for IPv4 communications to work correctly. An attempt to communicate with an IPv6
only address would fail. Attempting to report to an IPv6 only address results in a
Comm Trouble.
2 The control panel recognizes that IPv6 mode has been selected and that a B420
has been connected. Since the B420 does not support IPv6 mode, an Invalid Module
system fault is created.

When IPV6 Mode is enabled, then RPS makes the following parameters Read Only:
− IPv4 Address
− IPv4 Subnet Mask
− IPv4 Default Gateway
− IPv4 DNS Server IP Address

When IPv6 Mode is disabled, then RPS makes the following parameters Read Only:
− IPv6 Address
− IPv6 Subnet Prefix Length
− IPv6 Default Gateway
− IPv6 DNS Server IP Address

IPv4 DHCP/AutoIP Enable

Default: Yes
Selections: Yes/No
This parameter configures the on-board Ethernet communicator automatically using
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Yes DHCP automatically configures the module’s IPV4 Address, IPV4 Default
Gateway, and IPV4 DNS Server Address. These parameters are grayed out and you
cannot edit them manually.
No DHCP is disabled. You must manually configure the B426 (B420).
AutoIP enables dynamic IP addresses to be assigned to a device when the device is
started up. A host configured with AutoIP receives an IP address of
169.254.xxx.xxx. Whereas DHCP requires a DHCP server, AutoIP does not require a
server when selecting an IP address.
If you set IPv6 Mode to Yes, set DHCP/AutoIP Enable to Yes.
The parameter has no effect on B450 operation.

Cellular Settings for High Supervision Sites (Faster than 1 hour supervision)
The vast majority of cellular installations can be supervised at settings of 4 hours to
25 hours, but for high security and fire listed installations where cellular is the
primary or sole communication path and supervision rates are 1 hour or less you
should consider changing the following cellular parameters in the panel or cellular
device bus module:
1 Reporting Delay for Low Signal & Reporting Delay for No Towers: 200 seconds.
For some listed high security installations, low cellular signal is required be
treated like a wire cut and reported within 200 seconds. This will increase
sensitivity to cellular tower maintenance windows and other environmental
conditions, so we recommend leaving the default settings for non-listed
installations.
2 Reporting Delay for Single Tower: 600 seconds. For sole path cellular sites with
supervision at 5 minutes or less where only one cell tower is available,
maintenance (generally 1-5 minutes in the early morning hours) or changes in
environmental conditions may cause communication troubles to be reported. To
detect and report single tower conditions at cellular sites using a plug-in cellular
module in the panel or on GV4 version 2+ or B Series SDI2 bus, enable Single
Tower trouble reporting. The number of towers available can be viewed in the
B450 module’s USB menu or on keypads of SDI2 control panels with version 2+.
NOTICE: For SDI and Option bus installations of a cellular module, trouble conditions
such as Low Signal and Single Tower result in the device going missing from the bus
when the delay timer is reached.

The control panel supports two types of SDI2 wireless interface modules:
− B810 RADION Wireless
− B820 Inovonics Wireless
The type of wireless repeater must match the type of receiver. It is highly
recommended that the type of wireless receiver is chosen before any repeaters are
configured.
The control panel will support up to 8 repeaters simultaneously. All repeaters must be
of the same type.
Settings
RPS supports the configuration of the Enclosure Tamper on each of the Wireless
Repeater modules. Yes = Enable enclosure tamper, No = Disable enclosure tamper.
Default setting is Yes.
RPS supports the configuration of the RFID for each of the Wireless Repeater
modules.
There are no hardware switches on a Wireless Repeater. The Wireless Repeater
number is determined by the location of the RFID within the configuration table.
