Check In

This option displays if the COMM TYPE is NET, 232 or CELL. Check-in reports are a method of supervising the panel for communication with the receiver. For NET the default is YES. For CELL or 232 the default is NO.

Select RND (Random) for the panel to check-in at random times from 6 to 60 minutes when all areas are disarmed. If any area is armed a check-in is sent every 6 minutes. Select ADPT (Adaptive) for a backup path to adapt to the check-in programming from this groups primary path if the primary path becomes unavailable. Check-in programming includes Check-in and Fail Time.

Select ADP3 (Adaptive 3) for a backup path to adapt using a 3 minute Check-in and Fail Time if the primary path becomes unavailable. This option also indicates a Communication Trouble (S10) if the cell tower is unavailable for 3 minutes.

When YES is selected, enter the number of minutes between check-in reports, from 2 to 240 for NET and 232 or 3 to 240 for CELL, when the panel is armed or disarmed. For CELL or 232 the default is 0. For NET the default is 200.

Fail Time

This option displays if CHECKIN is set to YES. Entering a FAIL TIME allows the receiver to miss multiple check-ins before logging that the panel is missing. The maximum fail time is 240 minutes. For example, if CHECKIN is 10 and FAIL TIME is 30, the receiver only indicates a Panel Not Responding after 30 minutes. The FAIL TIME must be equal to or greater than the CHECKIN time. Default is 0 for CELL and 232. Default is 240 for NET.
