The Communicator Call Direction options can be used to disable the reporting of events such as Openings and Clos- ings.
NOTE: Do not program the 2nd telephone number to use Con- tact ID or SIA reporting code formats (section [360]) if Auto- matic reporting codes are selected for either Contact ID or SIA (section [381]).

The following is a description of each reporting format:
Pulse Formats
Depending on which pulse format is selected, the panel will communicate using the following specifications:
•3/1, 3/2, 4/1 or 4/2
•1400 or 2300 Hz handshake
•20 bits per second
•non-extended
Additional Notes on Pulse Formats
1.The digit ‘0’ will send no pulses and is used as a filler digit.
2.When programming account numbers, enter four digits. When programming a three digit account number, the fourth digit must be programmed as ‘0’.
3 digit account number [123] - program [1230]
3.If an account number has a ‘0’ in it, substitute a HEX digit ‘A’ for the ‘0’. For example:
3 digit account number [502] - program [5A20]
4 digit account number [4079] - program [4A79]
4.Reporting codes are two digits. When programming sin- gle-digit Reporting Codes, the second digit must be pro- grammed as a ‘0’. If a ‘0’ is to be transmitted, substitute HEX digit ‘A’. For example:
1 digit Reporting Code [3] - program [30]
2 digit Reporting Code [30] - program [3A]
5.To prevent the panel from reporting an event, the reporting code should be programmed as [00] or [FF].
Contact ID
Contact ID is a specialized format that will communicate infor- mation using tones rather than pulses. This format allows more information to be sent faster than other formats. For example, in addition to reporting an alarm in zone one, the Contact ID format will also report the type of alarm, such as an Entry/Exit alarm.
If the Contact ID uses Programmed Reporting Codes option is enabled, a two digit number from Appendix A must be entered in programming sections [320] to [353] for each event to be transmitted. The two digit number determines the type of alarm. The panel will automatically generate all other information, including the zone number.
If the Contact ID uses Automatic Reporting Codes option is enabled, the panel will operate as follows:
1.If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00], the panel will not attempt to call the central station.
2.If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any- thing from [01] to [FF], the panel will automatically gener- ate the zone or access code number. See Appendix A for a list of the codes which will be transmitted.
NOTE: If the Automatic Contact ID option is selected, the panel will automatically generate all zone and access code numbers, eliminating the need to program these items.
If the Contact ID uses Programmed Reporting Codes option is enabled, the panel will operate as follows:
1.If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00] or [FF], the panel will not attempt to call central station.
2.If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any- thing from [01] to [FE], the panel will send the programmed reporting code.
Additional Notes on Contact ID
1.Account numbers must be four digits.
2.All reporting codes must be two digits.
3.Substitute the HEX digit ‘A’ for the ‘0’.
4.To prevent the panel from reporting an event, the reporting
code should be programmed as [00].
Please refer to Appendix A: “Reporting Codes”for a list of Contact ID Identifiers.

SIA
SIA is a specialized format that will communicate information quickly using Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) rather than pulses. The SIA format will automatically generate the type of signal being transmitted, such as Burglary, Fire, Panic etc. The two digit reporting code is used to identify the zone or access code number.
NOTE: If the Automatic SIA option is selected, the panel will automatically generate all zone and access code numbers, eliminating the need to program these items.
If the SIA Sends Automatic Reporting Codes option is enabled, the panel will operate as follows:
1.If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00], the panel will not attempt to call the central station.
2.If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any- thing from [01] to [FF], the panel will automatically gener-
ate the zone or access code number.
If the SIA Sends Programmed Reporting Codes option is enabled, the panel will operate as follows:
1.If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00] or [FF], the panel will not attempt to call central station.
2.If the reporting code for an event is programmed as any- thing from [01] to [FE], the panel will send the programmed reporting code.
Please refer to Appendix A: “Reporting Codes”for a list of SIA identifiers.

Pager Format
The Communicator Format option for either telephone number can be programmed as Pager format. If an event occurs and the Communicator Call Direction options direct the call to a telephone number with the Pager Format selected, the panel will attempt to page.
When calling a pager, extra digits will be required in order for the format to function properly. The following is a list of Hex digits and the functions they perform:
Hex [B] - simulates the [*] key on a touch tone telephone Hex [C] - simulates the [#] key on a touch tone telephone Hex [D] - forces the panel to search for dial tone
Hex [E] - two second pause
Hex [F] - marks the end of the telephone number
The panel will attempt to call the pager once. Once the appro- priate telephone number is dialed, the panel will send the account number and Reporting Code followed by the [#] key (Hex [C]).
