3.9.4 PROTECTION FUNCTIONS OF THE SYSTEM
TAMPER: this function constantly monitors all of the system's components and its hardwired lines reporting any sabotaging attempts. All visual, audio and communication devices are
activated triggering a general alarm when tamper takes place and the control panel is armed . The "warning" icon displays and telephone calls are dialed without any other audio alarm
taking place when the control panel is disarmed.
MASKING: the masking protection function is supplied by any anti-masking detectors that may have been connected to the Bus. All visual, audio and communication devices are activated
triggering a general alarm when masking takes place and the control panel is armed. The "warning" icon displays without any other audio alarm taking place when the control panel is
disarmed.
INCERT - Caution ! The reset of anti-tamper/masking alarms will be possible by the installer only
BUS FAULT: this function constantly monitors the Bus line to which all of the system's components are connected. When the control pane l is armed any detected bus faults trigger a cycle of
telephone calls without activating any audio alarm.
TELEPHONE FAULT
PSTN line: the landline is constantly monitored. When the system detects that there is not line or that a fault has occurred for more than 10 seconds, this is displayed on the keypad
and reported via GSM (if available).
GSM line: when the GSM board in installed, any fault on the GSM line is displayed and reported after 15 minutes using the PSTN landline. When line is reset, the system sends SMS
messages confirming GSM's availability.
SUPERVISION CALLS: the control panels call and transmit monitoring messages every 1-25 hours (adjustable).
The first number stored in the control panel’s phone book will be dialed to send a 3 second beep when the PSTN line is the only operating one. When also the GSM line is operational, preset
no. 5 SMT will be sent to the preset phone numbers stored in the phone book.
230V POWER FAILURE/POWER RESTORED: any power failure is displayed after 10 seconds. If failure persists for more that preset time (adjustable from 1 to 60 min.), telephone calls will be
made and SMS will be sent. The system immediately reports when 230V power is restored.
LOW BATTERY: batteries are monitored only when there is not power available. Low battery visual/audio alerts are displayed on the keypad and audio/SMS messages are enabled after 10
seconds. The system reports a low battery level when battery is below 10.9V. Battery level is restored with a 11.2V charge. Temporarily disconnect the control unit from the power line to
check battery level.
OPEN WINDOW/DOOR: the system reports any passage that has been left open. These events are logged in the event history log and can be displayed after having entered the USER code.
Open windows/doors prevent control panel from being armed. You must force arming or close windows/doors that have been left often in order to arm the system.
4. ALARM MESSAGES SENT BY THE CONTROL PANEL : acknowledgement pass-trough
During an alarm the control panel will call all the numbers has been stored in the phone book and jointed to the alarm event, as described above.
Caution ! The called user must confirm the reception by pressing a number on his phone. Without this confirm, the call will be stored as "unreceived" on the panel memory.
Digital message to the central monitoring station: this message has priority over any other transmission. Completing
this function may take a few minutes, as long as it takes for the surveillance staff to reply.
Caution! This is the only type of message that is not disabled by disarming the control panel.
SMS messages: alarm SMS are sent by the control panel when the GSM module is available. SMS message transmission is stopped when the control panel is disarmed.
Audio messages: the control panels dial every setup phone number in sequence and transmit an audio message. When both GSM and PSTN landline are available, you will select which
line has priority during system's setup. If a number does not reply or is busy or without reception confirm, each number is dialed up to three times after the first sequence of calls has
been completed. The control panel will stop dialing when it is disarmed, but the digital calls to Security cannot be stopped.
Disabling calls remotely: press # after having heard the “end of message” beep to disable additional calls.
5. NOT EN 50131 COMPLIANT SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
Control panels supply some complementary functions which may be useful to the user based on the individual system.
5.1 Detectors and Bus relay board 4035 (CHIMES - HOME AUTOMATION FUNCTIONS)
Each detector can control one or more Bus relay boards 4035 when the control panel is armed and/or disarmed. It can, for example, automatically turn lights on, enable a door bell or other
similar automations.
5.2 Controlling Bus relay boards 4035 with a TAG (ACCESS CONTROL FUNCTION)
An access control system can be implemented using special TAGs that differ from those used to arm/disarm the control panel. The TAG will allow to open doors, gates, etc. through a Bus
relay board and each access will be stored in the event history log listing entry time and date.
Caution! This use requires to frequently display/ download the event history log based on the number of accesses that typically take place.
5.3 TTL Connections
The control panel can be connected to other devices using a TTL port. Through a Silentron proprietary protocol, this port allows different devices to communicate with each other and to
centralize alarms transmitted by different control panels. Please contact Silentron's Technical Department to use this function and to receive its operating instructions.
6. USER INFORMATION
This manual comprehensively describes Sil-Bus Control Panels' extensive capabilities. Many functions are tied to the way in which the system is installed, its setup and its appropriate
maintenance. The installer must supply any integration to this manual that will allow the user to achieve the described operations.
Although Silentron is available to provide information and advice upon request, it declines any responsibility regarding for the use and/or lack of use of the significantly varying uses that are
made possible by the equipment. Specifically:
a) malicious events that are not reported or that are insufficiently reported which could occur for a variety of causes, such as defective or insufficient charging of the batteries, alarm
devices' shortcomings, lack of adequate SIM card funds, inability to connect to the telephone line, mistaken selection/positioning of employed detectors, failure to arm the system, other
fault reports that are not corrected, etc. (the list is merely indicative and not comprehensive);
b) false alarms There are two types of false alarms: a) false alarms due to failure of system components, b) improper alarms caused by various types of environmental factors and/or
installation errors. The manufacturer's warranty applies according to the terms and conditions published online and in the general catalogues in the event of proven flawed material. The
dealer/reseller who sold and installed the product to the user is responsible for finding a solution in the event of unflawed mate rials.
c) partial or total lack of the described functions: this manual describes the Sil-Bus control panel including all of its accessories and/or peripherals; any shortcomings are therefore due to an
incomplete installation, settings and/or function enabling. Silentron's technical staff is available to assist in this regards.
