Remote Site Upload/Download

Downloading Program

SECTION 6

Remote Site Upload/Download

The control panel may be programmed or interrogated off-site via the public switched telephone network. Any personal computer with Windows™ 95 or greater, with a 14.4 Kbaud compatible modem and Upload/Download software kit P/N PK-CD, may serve as a Service Terminal. This allows download of the entire program or upload of the entire program, history file, walktest data, current status, system voltages, time and date.

CAUTION: After successfully downloading a program, make certain to perform the following steps:

1.Print out all programmed data via Print Mode or manually view programmed entries and compare to intended program data

2.Test all affected panel operations

3.Immediately correct any problems found

6.1Downloading Program

The first time that the control panel is downloaded (whether initiated at the jobsite or remotely), a secret code is loaded in by a Service Terminal. Future upload or download requests cause verification of the secret code by the control panel before processing of data is allowed. If the secret code is not verified, the control panel will terminate the request.

While the control panel is communicating with the Service Terminal, one of the DACT’s red phone line active LEDs will remain on steady. At the conclusion of a successful download, the green Kissoff LED will turn on steady for five seconds and the red phone line active LED will turn off.

In order to download the panel (whether initiated at the jobsite or remotely), the following must be true:

The control panel must be in the Normal Mode of operation. Downloading is not possible if the panel is in any other mode

There cannot be any active communications ongoing with a Central Station receiver

All active events must be successfully 'kissed-off' by the Central Station(s). The communicator must be in a standby state with no new information waiting to be transmitted to a Central Station

Two basic communication mechanisms are supported as follows:

•Download with callback - the Service Terminal calls the control panel. The control panel answers the call, confirms the calling party then hangs up. The Service Terminal then waits for a callback from the control panel. After the control panel calls the Central Station and successfully reports that a request for downloading has been received, the control panel calls the Service Terminal back. Upon secret code verification, data transfers occur. When the data transfers are completed and the Service Terminal disconnects from the control panel, the panel calls the Central Station back to confirm either successful or unsuccessful results.

•Download with callback disabled - the Service Terminal calls the control panel. No hang-up sequence occurs. Data transfers proceed.

Note that Callback enable/disable is controlled by the master user at the Service

Terminal on a per call basis.
