Variables:

NN

Description:

A printout of each or all of the Command Categories may be generated from the controller's permanent memory. Automatic Context Sensitive Help prints the correct syntax for any individual Command whenever a programming error is made.

Examples:

START 00 * 2 #

Prints Program User Commands

START 00 * 11 #

Prints Control Zone Commands

Default:

None

CMD 01 - Change System Code

CMD 01: CHANGE SYSTEM CODE

Syntax:

START 01 * SYSTEM CODE #

Description:

The system code controls ScramblePad access to programming mode.

The system code may be set to any available 3-8 digit code and is permanently assigned to User 0. It is factory set to 123 on system start up. It is important to protect the security of your system by changing the system code to a code of your choice at system start up. The longer the code the greater the security. A 7- or 8-digit code is recommended.

There is a system code reset button on the controller board which, when depressed for 5 seconds, will return the system to a system code of 123. This is the only method available to return to a system code of 123 as command 01 will not allow programming a Code to 123.

If the system code is not changed from 123 to a new code, you will receive the following warning on the system printer once every four hours:

Warning! System CODE is 123!

In addition, if the system code is still set to 123 when Programming Mode is active at a ScramblePad, both yellow LEDs blink in unison. Once the code is changed, only the second yellow LED blinks whenever you enter Programming Mode.

Further restriction of programming may be implemented through the command 02, add password.

Example:

START 01 * 66402139 #

Changes SYSTEM CODE To 66402139

Default:

123

Variables:

PASSWORD Level

1 - System Code PASSWORD
2 - Executive PASSWORD
3 - Supervisor PASSWORD
4 - Operator PASSWORD
5 - Service PASSWORD

Description:

Passwords control ScramblePad access to programming mode. Passwords enable five levels of programming command restriction. Each level is only able to use certain programming commands according to the password level assigned to the operator's user number when added to the system. Any number of users may be assigned to any level. Each authorized operator is logged onto the system when programming mode is entered. Only one operator may be logged on at a time. For each command’s allowed password levels, refer to “Command Index In Numeric Order With Password Level”. The five password levels are defined below:

Description:

To change the function of any ScramblePad/MATCH Reader:

1. Select the function number, such as 1 for display Scramble.

2. Select 1 to turn the function ON or 0 to turn it OFF

3. Select the ScramblePad/MATCH Reader Addresses to be changed.

ScramblePad/MATCH Readers are selected by entering 1 through 8 in the first set for Addresses 1 through 8, and by selecting 1 through 8 in the second set for Addresses 9 through 16.

If no Addresses from either set of 8 are being changed, enter a 0 (zero).

For example, pressing:

START 03 * 1 * 0 * 1 * 0 #

changes scramble feature to OFF (normal pattern) for ScramblePad 1.

Each ScramblePad keypad can be set to scramble a normal digit pattern. ScramblePad keypads will not scramble in Programming Mode.

Each ScramblePad Keypad may operate in silent mode. ScramblePad/MATCH Readers may be set to not accept various types of Codes such as Programming (ScramblePad only), Control, or Access Types. ScramblePad Keypads may be set to not accept a status display request. The Status Display Request allows a User to request the Status of any Relay or Line Module Input from any ScramblePad Keypad.

To operate the status request, press:

START * #

This results in a display of the status of the Relay and Alarm input associated with the ScramblePad Keypad address from which the request was entered.

For example, requesting the status at ScramblePad 1 displays the status of Relay 1 and Alarm 1.

To request the status of any other point, press:

START * Point_ID_Number #

For example, pressing

START * 8 #

from ScramblePad 1 displays the status of Relay 8 and Alarm 8 at ScramblePad Keypad 1. If you press

START * 01 #

from ScramblePad 1 it displays the status of Expansion Relay 1 and Expansion Alarm 1, if either or both are installed.

The status request LEDs can indicate these conditions:

LEDs can also be configured to indicate delay conditions. For example, 03*17*1 sets the keypad/MATCH to flash its green LED while the door delay period is counting down. The door delay is set by CMD 280. Similarly, 03*23*1 sets the first yellow LED to flash while the timer is counting down the control delay time. The control delay time is set by CMD 281.

For Passback and Occupancy Violation to work, ScramblePad/MATCH Reader addresses must be defined as Entry, Exit, Internal or Unrestricted (No Passback Status).

An internal ScramblePad/MATCH Reader will only grant access if the user has been detected as inside the secure perimeter after coming through an entry ScramblePad/ MATCH Reader. Once the controller detects the same user has exited through an exit ScramblePad/MATCH Reader, any attempt to use that user's code or card at an internal door will be denied and reported as a passback violation.

To link a ScramblePad/MATCH Reader to an expansion line module input for access-by- alarm control, select number 11.

ScramblePad can be set to always keep the Red, Green and Yellow LED 1 status indicators on.

AC Fail can be set to blink Yellow LED 1, if required.

CMD 03*27 provides for limited compatibility with certain older DS47 revisions.

Examples:

START 03 * 3 * 0 * 1234578 * #

Change Programming Capability OFF to ScramblePad keypads 1 2 3 4 5 7 & 8.

START 03 * 7 * 1 * 34 * #

Change Passback Entry Address ON to Keypads/MATCH Readers 3 & 4.

START 03 * 8 * 1 * * 34 #

Change Passback Exit Address ON to Keypads/MATCH Readers 11 & 12.

START 03 * 23 * 1

Enable the First Yellow LED to flash during a specified control delay period.

CMD 07: CHANGE DURESS DIGIT

Syntax:

START 07 * Duress Digit #

Description:

A Duress Alarm is generated whenever an authorized Code is used along with its duress digit if the Duress Alarm Mode is set to on. The default duress digit is set to 9; however, any digit, 1-9, can be added to any or all of the user codes in the system when they are either manually or automatically generated for the first time, if CMD 09 is set to ON (the default setting is OFF).

Determine whether the duress feature will be needed so that all Codes have duress digits when they are initially added to the System.

Different duress digits may be assigned to individual Users or groups of Users by changing the duress digit before adding a new User or generating a group of Users.

To add or change duress digits to existing Codes, see CMD 14.

Example:

START 07 * 3 #

Change Duress Digit to 3

Default:

9

CMD 10: ADD KEYPAD ACCESS USER (IDF 1)

Syntax:

START 10 * User Number * Code * Access Zone#

Description:

An Access Code momentarily unlocks a door. The door unlock time is set with CMD 80 and can be set from 1 second up to 8,100 seconds (2 hours and 15 minutes). If the door time is set to 0 (zero), Access Codes will cause the relay to toggle on and off on successive code entries.

Each User is assigned a user number from 1 - 999 (1-4000 or 1-16,000 with an optional MEB/CE Code Expansion Board Installed) for reference during programming. When the System printer prints each code transaction it prints the time, date, User Number, Reader and door numbers and the result of the code entry, granted or denied.

Each Access User is assigned a unique 3- to 15-digit code or is issued a card. The Access Code is the combination of numbers the user actually enters on the ScramblePad keypad to unlock the door. The card is used in a MATCH Card Reader to unlock a door. Several related codes or cards may be assigned to the same person to perform other command and control functions.

Each Access User must be assigned to an Access Zone. Access Zones determine the access authority of a group of Users. An Access Zone is defined with a Time Zone and a set of valid doors. (See CMDs 17, 24 and 117.)

Access Zone 65 authorizes access “Always to All Doors.”

Access Zone 0 (Zero) restricts access, “locks out,” all Users in that Zone, to “Never, No Doors.”

Examples:

START 10 * 124 * 14291 * 65 #

Add User 124 with Code 14291 To Access Zone 65

CMD 12: CHANGE ANY USER ACCESS OR CONTROL ZONE (All IDFs)

Syntax:

START 12 * User Number * Zone (AZ or CZ) #

Description:

Change Any User Access Zone or Control Zone allows an Operator to change a User's Access or Control Authority.

This Command is especially useful for disabling or locking out any User by changing their Access Zone to 0 (Zero). This Command is also frequently used to change new and unissued Users, kept in the controller's memory, to a specified Access Zone upon issuance to a new employee. In systems with Dual Technology Readers and Multiple ID Users, Command 12 is used to disable the Keypad Code ID Only from working at the Dual Technology Door.

Examples:

START 12 * 45 * 0 #

Change User 45 To Access Zone 0 (No Access)

START 12 * 663 * 1 #

Change User 663 To Access Zone 1

CMD 13: CHANGE KEYPAD USER CODE (IDF 1 & 6)

Syntax:

START 13 * User Number * Code [* Duress] #

Description:

Change any User Code allows an Operator to change a User's Keypad Code whenever required.
If duress is enabled, use this feature to change a user's keycode and duress digit. If you specify a duress digit of 0, it will disable the duress option for that user.

If a user has been defined

• without Duress, then later Duress is enabled and a duress digit is set

• with one duress digit and the system duress digit is later changed

then changing that user's keypad code will also automatically update their duress digit to the current setting.

Examples:

START 13 * 6 * 298165 #

Change Code for User 6 to 298165

START 13 * 200 * 201 * 1 #

Change Code for User 200 to 201 and specify 1 as the extra duress digit for that user

Description:

This command enables the operator to add or change the duress digit, or remove it (if you specify 0), for the designated user or users. If changing a user's duress digit would create a code conflict, the user's keycode and duress digit are left unchanged and a report is generated describing the conflict.

This command only affects those IDF 1 & 6 users affected by CMD 13.

Examples:

START 14 * 1 * 298165 #

Add or Change the Duress Digit for User 298165 to 1.

START 14 * 2 * 201 * 205 #

Add or Change the Duress Digit for users 201 through 205 to 2.

START 15 * N * User Number * Code * Access Zone #

Variables: 

N

1     Unlock

2     Relock

3     Extended Access

4     Visitor Access

5 Escort Access

Description:

An Unlock Code unlocks a door until manually relocked by a Relock Code or automatically relocked at the end of a specified Time Zone (Command 82). Unlock and Relock User Codes require separate User numbers and Codes from each other.

Consider assigning a Relock Code to Access Zone 65 to prevent time restrictions on relocking. In some cases a “common” Relock Code is posted at the door so that any User finding a Door unlocked can immediately relock it.

Extended Access is similar to ordinary access (see CMD 10), with an added feature: if PIN*NNN# is used for access instead of just PIN#, the relay fires for NNN extra minutes, or the door can be held open NNN extra minutes, or a combination of both. The maximum value of NNN is set per door, to a value of 0-1440.

Extended Access and Relay Priorities: In Hirsch's Relay Priority scheme, Extended Access falls between Access and Unlock. The "Clear Relay" function will clear an Extended Access (see CMD 082 for Clear Relay At End Of Time Zone; CMD 304 for Master Control Zone option 2, Clear Relays). If Extended Access is in progress, a regular "Access" will have no visible effect, because the relay is already energized. "Relock" has no effect on the Extended Access.

Extended Access and Auto-Relock: "Auto-Relock On Open" and "Auto-Relock Off" will have no effect on Extended Access; in this instance, Extended Access behaves more like Unlock, i.e. you can open and shut the door as many times as you like. "Auto-Relock On Close" will clear Extended Access; in this instance, Extended Access behaves more like Access.

Visitor Access assigns a person visitor status, indicating the access zone and code the visitor can use. This enables a visitor to enter a restricted area when accompanied by an enrolled escort. The Visitor must be enrolled using this command for a specific access zone. Under the default Visitor/Escort Rule #1, an escort must enter his access code first, then specify the number of visitors that are accompanying him/her before the Visitor can enter the assigned code. Only the number of visitors specified by the escort at the keypad/ reader are allowed access.

Escort Access assigns a user escort status, meaning that the escort can enter a restricted area with a specified number of visitors. The escort must enter the PIN specified here followed by the number of visitors he/she is escorting, in this form:

START [Escort Code] * [number of visitors] #

For example, START 1234 * 4 # indicates that the escort has four visitors to enter. Only the number of visitors specified can enter the area, beyond which access is denied.

Examples:

START 15 * 1 * 400 * 82341 * 4 #

Add Unlock User 400 With Code 82341 With Access Zone 4

START 15 * 2 * 401 * 82342 * 65 #

Add Relock User 401 With Code 82342 With Access Zone 65

START 15 * 4 * 331 * 331 * 2 #

CMD 17: DEFINE STANDARD ACCESS ZONE (1-64)

Syntax:

START 17 * Standard Access Zone * Time Zone * Doors [* Doors] #

Variables:

Doors

Doors/Readers, Associates specified Doors (and corresponding Readers)where, for example, 125 means Doors 1, 2, and 5 which assumes the association of corresponding readers 1, 2, 5, 9, 10, and13

Description:

Access Zones are one of the most important features defined in a DIGI*TRAC controller. Access Zones serve as a method to organize users controlled by your controller into groups who share the same access authority. Furthermore, Access Zones enable the rapid change of access authority for entire groups of users with a single programming command.

Access Zones answer these three questions: Who, When, Where.

 CMD 17 defines Standard Access Zones for one time zone and all doors. Define Standard Access Zone requires the selection of a time zone and a set of doors assigned to one of 64 available access zones. Access Zone 0 is preassigned as “Never - No Doors” and Access Zone 65 is preassigned as “Always - All Doors”.

Special Applications:

Expansion Alarm Inputs can be assigned to a Standard Access Zone. This enables these Alarm Inputs to be accessed, or masked, by the same Access Code issued to a User to access a door. It also enables assignment of Individual ScramblePad Keypads to Alarm Inputs for discreet alarm zone masking by alarm zone control. Alarm Control Codes, under Command 42, enable any alarm input to be masked from any ScramblePad Keypad.

Command 201 will be phased out in Version 7.0.

These Zones may be defined for use in establishing the "Who, When and Where" controls for proper access management.

In Version 6.6.0, Access Zones are arranged individually by reader, using the second ‘Doors’ variable to specify a different set of doors corresponding to Readers 9-16. CMD 124 has been added to facilitate this.

Example:

START 17 * 1 * 1 * 125 #

Define Standard Access Zone 1 as Time Zone 1 and Doors 1, 2, and 5 (including Readers 1, 2, 5, 9, 10, and 13.

START 17 * 2 * 3 * 45 * 6

Define Standard Access Zone 2 as Time Zone 3 for Readers 4, 5, and 14.

START 17 * 7 * 8 * 0 * 78

Define Standard Access Zone 7 as Time Zone 8 for Readers 15 and 16 only.

Default:

There are two pre-defined Access Zones in the system:

CMDs 18-22: AUTO-ADD KEYPAD ACCESS USER(s) (IDF 1)

DIGI*TRAC has the capability to automatically add a single access user and code or to add multiple access users and codes.

This feature is most often used on system start up when there are no users or codes in the controller memory. The controller has a true random number generator which will create a unique keypad code for an unused user number or range of numbers. It may also be used as a convenient and secure way to add a single new user to the system whenever required.

CMD 18 is used to establish the code length for any auto-generated codes (CMDs 19, 21, 22). The longer the code the greater the security. Seven-digit codes are the factory default setting and are recommended and are easily memorized because of their similarity to phone numbers.

Whenever an Operator Auto-Adds codes, DIGI*TRAC will print them as they are added. This list must be audited before the codes are issued for use. Some codes that are randomly generated may not be acceptable for use, such as 1234567 or 1111111. These are valid randomly generated codes but are insecure. They can be edited with CMD 13 or deleted and re-auto-generated. It is also possible for independent Controllers to auto-generate identical codes. The shorter the code the greater the chance of having duplicate codes. Longer codes are recommended.

CMD 18: CHANGE KEYPAD CODE LENGTH FOR AUTO-GENERATION

Syntax:

START 18 * Length # (Version 6.6 and earlier)

START 18 * Length * [Card Length] # (Version 7)

Variables:

Length

Allowed length for the auto-generation of keypad (PIN) codes.

Card Length

This option is available in Version 7.0 as a convenient method of formatting user code record printouts, using CMD 36 etc. Acceptable values are 8, 10, 12, 14, 16.

Description:

Keypad codes can be auto-generated in any uniform length from 3-15 digits long and will be printed with Codes showing.

The length may be changed for each auto-generation of keypad codes.

The code length defined by this command will be used as the default length when the program attempts to deduce an IDF 4 user's original keycode (where IDF 4 = card code & dual code). The code length default value is factory set to 7 digits and the card length is 8 digits.

The ‘Card Length’ option is available as a convenience for formatting user code record printouts. (CMD 36, etc.) Valid values are 8, 10, 12, 14, 16.

Example:

START 18 * 8 #

Auto-Generate Codes 8 Digits Long

START 18 * 12 * 10

Set the PIN length to 12 digits and the card length to 10 digits

Default:

Code Length = 7 digits

Card Length = 8 digits

Time Zone For Door 3 *

Time Zone For Door 4 *

Time Zone For Door 5 *

Time Zone For Door 6 *

Time Zone For Door 7 *

Time Zone For Door 8 #

Description:

Use this command to define a Standard Access Zone in which only one time zone is assigned per door. This enables access by time zone on a door-by-door basis. Each door in a Standard Access Zone can be restricted by any of the available time zones. For example, entering Time Zone 0 for a door restricts all access at that door

This command enables you to define time zones for Doors 1-8. In other words, the same TZs are assigned to both sides of the door: this means both readers 9-16 and readers 1-8 are defined.

Each door must have a time zone value assigned. When a door is not authorized in an access zone, enter Time Zone 0 in that door field. Command 117 allows one or more time zones to be changed for a specified door without affecting the time zone setting of any other door(s).

Refer to Command 17 for a convenient method to add Standard Access Zones with 1 Time Zone For All Doors.

CMD 24 defines readers 1-8 and readers 9-16 enabling you to use the same set of eight time zones, if only eight are specified.

Example:

START 24*10*65*0*1*5*0*0*0*0#

Define Standard Access Zone 10 To Time Zone 65 On Door 1, TZ 0 On Door 2 5 6 7 & 8, TZ 1 On Door 3, TZ 5 On Door 4. As you can see from this example, DIGITRAC assumes that the first delimiter after the Access Zone number is Reader/Door 1, the next delimiter is Reader/Door 2, and so on.

Default:

AZ0 = Never – No Doors

AZ65 = Always – All Doors

CMD 40: ADD KEYPAD RELAY CONTROL USER (IDF 1)

Syntax:

 START 40 * N * User Number * Code * Control Zone #

Variables:

N

1     Control Trigger

2     Force ON

3     Force ON Release

4     Force OFF

5     Force OFF Release

Description:

Control codes can operate any combination of relays simultaneously from any ScramblePad/MATCH reader as defined by a control zone. They can override all types of access codes and override each lower priority level control code. Relays can be set to trigger their control time momentarily from 1-8100 seconds, or toggled ON and OFF on consecutive trigger code entries (see CMD 81). To add a card relay control user use CMD 325 to con- vert a keypad relay control user to a card relay control user.

Relays can be Forced ON by a code and remain on until released by a corresponding Force ON release code. Relays can be Forced OFF (disabled) by a code and remain disabled until released by a corresponding Force OFF Release code.

Consider assigning all release type control codes to a control zone with a time zone of 65, “Always”. This will prevent any unintentional time restrictions from keeping an authorized user from releasing a control condition that requires releasing.

Example:

START 40 * 2 * 650 * 73451 * 1 #

Add Force ON Code 73451 To User 650 And Control Zone 1

START 40 * 3 * 651 * 73452 * 2 #

Add Force ON Release Code 73452 To User 651 And Control Zone 2

Description:

Lock DOWN codes disable any relays in its control zone and prevent any lower priority codes from working or time zone initiated events from occurring. It will maintain the Lock Down condition until cleared by a Lock DOWN Release Code.

Lock OPEN Codes actuate any or all relays and maintain them actuated until released by a Lock OPEN Release Code.

Consider assigning all release type control codes to a control zone with a time zone of 65, “Always”. This will prevent any unintentional time restrictions from keeping an authorized User from releasing a control condition that requires releasing.

6     Mask Alarm and Cancel Entry Delay

7     Start Exit Timer and Unmask

8     Pre-Arm Status

9     Conditional Unmask

10   Partial Unmask

Description:

A Momentary Single Mask code momentarily disables the reporting of a single alarm condition from any of the line module inputs as defined by the code's control zone. This means that when this user function is used, it will mask the specified line module input for a single alarm actuation only. If the masking timer is still active when the specified line module input is tripped for a second or more times, it will report as a new alarm on that input. When a momentary single mask is used on a door associated input and the auto- relock function of the door is off, the mask will last as long as the door unlock time, no matter how many times the door is opened and closed during the masked time. If the auto- relock function is on, the door can only be opened and closed once or a new alarm will occur.

An alarm Mask code turns off the reporting of all alarms from any of the line module inputs as defined by the code's control zone. Neither type of mask code prevents line trouble alarm reporting, such as shorts or open line conditions.

An alarm Unmask code restores the alarm reporting of any input(s) as defined by the code's control zone. Consider assigning unmask codes to a control zone with a time zone of 65 to prevent time restrictions on the unmasking of masked line module inputs. To add a card alarm control user use Command 325 to convert a keypad alarm control user to a card alarm control user.

A Cancel Entry Timer code is used to cancel the entry delay timer and prevent the reporting of an alarm. An Entry Delay Timer can be used to control access to secure areas where the ScramblePad is located within the area.

A Start Exit Timer enables exiting the same secure area without tripping an alarm.

Mask Alarm and Cancel Entry Timer is a convenient combined user function that can cancel an entry delay and mask all interior line module inputs for general building occupancy, or just mask specified Inputs for occupancy of a specific area only, while other areas remain armed.

Likewise, Start Exit Timer and Unmask combines the start exit timer function with the unmask function and is often used to re-secure an entire building or only a specified area.

Pre-Arm Status—also known as ‘Test If Secure’ or ‘Check Secure’—tests all available inputs within the specified control zone and reports whether they are inactive (secure) or active (unsecured). If all inputs are secure, the ScramblePad flashes its green LED once for an access grant and twice for a control. If there are unsecured inputs detected, ScramblePad flashes its red LED and beeps—one beep for each active input.

Conditional Unmask—also known as ‘Unmask If Secure’—unmasks/arms all inputs in the specific control zone, but only if all inputs have been previously detected as secure.

Partial Unmask—also known as ‘Force Arm’ or ‘Arm Around’—unmasks all inputs in the specified control zone previously detected as secure. All unsecured inputs are left unarmed. When this condition is used, the ScramblePad flashes both the red and green LEDs, if some inputs are secure and other are not. Only the green LED flashes if all inputs are detected secure. For example, if the boss leaves the safe in his office open, you can arm what is ‘armable’ around it, knowing that the door to his office (containing the open safe) will be armed.

Example:

Description:

The first four variables (1 - 4) control the assignment of previously-defined holiday schedules to specific user numbers (credentials) using specific codes. Variables 5 - 8 essentially repeal assignment of holiday schedules to a user number using a specific code. Forgive all users provides a quick way to nullify any grant denials issued for a door and enables people to leave the area controlled by the door no matter what their grant status is. This is particularly useful for emergency procedures. Clear Code Tamper enables a user number with the proper code to clear code tamper alarms at a specific location. For example, if an specified operator or guard needs to reset a keypad, this can be accomplished using the assigned code. Display This Side/ Other Side Users Count enables a qualified user with the proper code to see how many people are within a particular area or outside of that area.

Example:

START 43 * 1 * 45 * 777 #

Add Schedule 1 holidays to User 45 using Code 777

START 43 * 9 * 505 * 2323 #

1     Alarm Cancel

2     Watch Log

3     Time Log

4     Deadman Timer

Description:

An Alarm Cancel Code clears the controller's dedicated alarm relay outputs and causes the standard or optional expanded alarm buffer to print its contents. The standard alarm buffer holds approximately 1,500 of the most recent alarms. The optional expanded alarm buffer board holds an additional 2,000 of the most recent alarms. This code duplicates the effect of pressing the alarm cancel button on the controller board.

The Alarm Cancel function has a second function: activating the DIGI*TRAC Annunciator (DTA). When programmed, it enables an operator to activate the DTA by entering the correct user number and code.

A Watch Log Code entry is a logging code for tracking guards on their appointed rounds. A Time Log Code entry is a logging code for recording the arrival and departure times of time log code holders.

To add a card special control user use CMD 325 to convert a keypad special control user to a card special control user.

A Deadman Timer Code is a special control code used to track the safety and security of a user while a specific task is being performed. The use of “deadman timers” is common in many industrial applications such as railroads, refineries and other dangerous or hazardous locations.

Before the task is begun, the user enters a deadman timer code on a specified keypad which starts the deadman timer count down sequence. Once the task is completed, the user enters a different deadman timer code on a specified keypad to stop the count down. If the user is interrupted, delayed, or otherwise prevented from entering the stop code, the deadman timer will run out and cause a deadman expiration alarm to be reported on the system printer and on the alarm relay.

Deadman users must have at least two codes: one to start the timer and one to stop the timer. The timer for each code is set with CMD 358 for 0–65,000 seconds. The start time is set to the required number of seconds to complete the assigned task. The stop timer is set to 0 (zero) seconds to clear and cancel the deadman timer count down sequence.

Deadman Timer Setups can be printed by entering CMD 88 * 2 #. If deadman codes are used for a guard tour sequence a different Start Timer may be assigned to a code associated with a keypad. This allows the guard to enter a unique code per keypad in the tour thus varying the time allowed to travel between Keypads. For instance, a Code of 789-1 could be entered at keypad 1 and 789-2 at keypad 2. Each code could be assigned a different time based on the average travel time from keypad 1 to 2 and 2 to 3, etc.

Each Deadman user is assigned to a standard control zone. The standard control zone is used to define which keypads are authorized for the entry of the Deadman Codes. Since Deadman Codes do not affect line module inputs or relay outputs, no onboard alarms or relays are defined. Instead, authorized keypad locations are specified by using expansion points 1-16 in the control zone definition. See CMD 301. Use CMD 12 to assign a deadman user to the required standard control zone.

Example:

START 44 * 1 * 45 * 777 #

Add Alarm Cancel Code 777 To User 45. User 45 can activate an attached Annunciator by entering the code 777.

START 44 * 4 * 505 * 23231 #

START 44 * 4 * 506 * 23232 #

Add both Start (User 505) and Stop (User 506) Deadman Timer Codes

CMD 45: DEFINE STANDARD CONTROL ZONE

Syntax:

START 45 * Standard Control Zone * Time Zone * Relays or Inputs #

Description:

A Control Zone manages the use of relay control codes and alarm control codes. A control zone consists of a time zone and any combination of available relays for output control, or inputs for alarm control.

There are 192 standard control zones available (0 -191). Control Zone 0 is predefined as “Never & No Relays - No Inputs” This allows control codes to be maintained in memory with a CZ of 0. Note that CZ 0 cannot be changed. To enable any control code user simply use CMD 12 to change the user's control zone to an appropriate control zone.

See CMD 301 for information on expansion inputs/relays. See CMD 304 for information on master control zones.

A defined control zone may be shared by relay control codes and by alarm control codes. Whichever code type is assigned to that zone, when entered, will affect the appropriate function. Relay control codes actuate a set of relays and alarm control codes mask/unmask a set of alarm points.

The way in which the relay and/or input in this SCZ is used is determined by the Master Control Zone.

Example:

START 45 * 1 * 65 * 12345678 #

Define Standard Control Zone 1 With TZ 65 And All Doors/Inputs

Default:

CZ0 = Never, No Relays, and No Inputs

3    Report / Alarm / Forgive

4    Report / Deny Access

5    Report / Forgive

6    Occupancy Violation Report ON

7    Occupancy Violation Report OFF

Description:

The Passback Mode is off when the controller starts up. When the mode is set to on, pass- back violations will always be reported. They may also be set to trigger the alarm relay, deny access or grant access by automatically forgiving the violation.

In order to track the entry and exit of Users into and out of a secure perimeter, an entry and exit ScramblePad/MATCH reader must be installed on the controlled area and must be set with CMD 03 as entry and exit ScramblePad/MATCH readers. In addition, passback can control access to an internal area when properly set up. Access to internal areas will only be granted to a User once they have entered the secure area through an entry ScramblePad/ MATCH reader.

Occupancy Violation counts the number of users entering a secure area through an entry ScramblePad/MATCH reader and keeps a running total. As users exit from the secure area through an exit ScramblePad/MATCH reader, they are subtracted from the running total. Whenever the number of users inside reaches the minimum or maximum levels set with CMD 235, an occupancy violation alarm report is sent to the system printer. In addition, the controller reports the user number of the user who violated the occupancy rule. As long as the violation continues the alarm message will automatically repeat at 2 minute intervals. In order for occupancy tracking to operate properly one of the available pass- back modes must first be enabled. Other automated functions based on the occupancy count are available by using CMDs 235, 236 and 237.

Example:

START 46 * 2 #

Description:

Use this command to reset the status of all users having access to a passback/occupancy controlled area. Once this command is used, the controller automatically picks up the in or out location of every user the next time the user's code is used at a ScramblePad/MATCH reader. In addition, a forgive command resets the occupancy count of the passback/occupancy controlled area to zero.

Example:

START 48 #

Forgives all users one passback violation and grants access to reestablish all users passback status. Useful after building or area evacuation. Also sets number of users inside to 0 (zero), so the interior area should be unoccupied when this command is issued to insure an accurate inside user count.

Description:

Set date & day of the week. Setting the date and day of the week sets the controller clock- calendar for accurate access restriction, automatic event scheduling and transaction reporting on the system printer or on the SCRAMBLE*NET. The accuracy of all time controlled functions depends on this setting. Set date as Month Day Year: MMDDYY. Set day of the week number for the current day. This Command sets the time in each controller, not in the PC. DIGI*TRAC controllers assume the year is in the range 1990-2089.

Example:

START 50 * 010101 * 3 #

Set the Date to Wednesday, January 1, 2001, Wednesday

Default:

For CCM 7.0 and later, after a cold start, the controller clock defaults to midnight (0000), January 1, 2000. For CCM 6.6 and earlier, the clock defaults to midnight, January 1 of the year in which the CCM was programmed.

Days

Days of the week you want to include in the time zone, where:

1 = Monday                     5 = Friday

2 = Tuesday                     6 = Saturday

3 = Wednesday                7 = Sunday

4 = Thursday                   8 = Overrides Holiday Schedules

If a holiday is specified, you can use the next optional variable, [1234], to specify which one of four holiday options is designated.

[1234]

If you specify Day 8 in the Days option, it overrides the holiday schedule. There are two ways to override a holiday schedule: selecting Day 8 when placing the days in the standard time zone (CMD 52) or selecting a 0 when defining a holiday schedule (CMD 57). This variable is only available for V7.0 and later.

Description:

Time zones are used to restrict the use of codes by time and by day when used to define an access zone. They are also used to control automatic events such as alarm masking and relay actuation for automatic unlocking and relocking of a door or set of doors when used to define a control zone.

Standard time zones are set up to have a start time, a stop time and a set of valid days, which may include any day programmed in the controller as a Holiday, Day 8.

Master time zones are defined with CMD 54. Master time zones can include up to 8 standard time zones. Master time zones allow “Super Users” with complex access authority and allow complex timing sequences for managing relays and alarms.

Grand master time zones allow up to 8 standard or master times zones to be combined for even more sophisticated time management functions.

See CMD 154. Time Zones 0, Never, and 65, Always, are available for use and cannot be changed.

Appendix A provides Worksheets to help you plan your controller setups, including time zone controls.

Example:

START 52 * 1 * 0730 * 1800 * 12345 #

Define standard time zone 1 as 7:30AM to 6:00PM Monday-Friday

Time Zones restrict the use of codes to particular time periods for access zones or the automatic scheduling of an event when used to define a control zone. Most time zones include only one set of start times and end times and set of valid days. When more complex time controls are required, any combination of up to 8 standard time zones may be assigned to master time zones.

The most common use of master time zones is to define a time schedule such as Monday to Friday 8AM to 5PM and Saturday 8AM to noon. This requires two standard time zones to be defined. One to cover Monday to Friday and one to cover Saturday only. The two standard time zones are then added to one master time zone to achieve the required time control.

Another common use of master time zones is defining times that span or crossover midnight—for example, the weekday night shift (6 PM to 6 AM, Monday-Friday). This time period can be defined by a master time zone that includes the STZs 1800-2400 M-F and 0000-0600 T-S. Notice that Monday is not included in the second STZ but Saturday is, because weekday nightshifts usually end on Saturday at 6 AM and begin on Monday at 6 PM. Weekend nightshifts begin on Saturday at 6 PM and end Monday at 6 AM.

A master time zone is active when any of its standard time zones is active. A master time zone can be used in any command that calls for a time zone.

Appendix A provides worksheets to help you plan your controller setups including time zone controls.

START 54 * 1 * 68 * 3 #

CMD 57: DEFINE HOLIDAY

Syntax:

START 57 * Holiday * MMDDYY #

Description:

Any calendar date may be programmed to be a scheduled holiday. When the controller detects a holiday, it refers to its time zones to determine if any normally scheduled event, such as automatic unlocking, is to occur on a holiday or is to be skipped. Whenever a code is entered at a ScramblePad/MATCH reader it is also checked to see if it is authorized during a scheduled holiday or not.

The controller has two holiday controls available:

• A list of up to 30 scheduled holidays by date.

• A holiday day field which may be selected as valid when defining a time zone.

These two controls work in unison to perform special controls during scheduled Holidays.

If no holidays are defined, then normal access will be granted and automatic events will occur on each valid day of their respective time zones, even if on one of those days, the building is closed for normal business. If however, the controller's calendar detects a day as a scheduled holiday, then general access will be denied and automatic events will be skipped.

During closed business days it may be necessary for selected groups of users to gain authorized access to the area being controlled. This is accomplished by making the eighth day valid when defining the time zone that controls the group's access authority. Likewise, any special automatic events, such as outdoor security lighting controllers, may be switched on even during a scheduled holiday by making day 8 a valid day in their con- trolling time zones.

Holidays 31 & 32 are special. On the date specified for Holiday 31 the controller time will “Spring Forward 1 Hour” at 02:00 and on Holiday date 32 the controller time will “Fall Back 1 Hour” at 02:00 to allow for automatic compensation for daylight savings time, if required.

V7.0 enables you to add a holiday wherever there's an open space in the holiday table by specifying a holiday number of 0. V7.0 also has unlimited holiday capacity for the current calendar year and for the next year following, including 30 additional slots to “pre-load” holidays for successive years, if needed. The theoretical maximum number of holidays at any one time, therefore, is 760 – 761 if there's a leap year involved.

V7.0 assumes years are in the range 1990-2089. To override this, use MMDDYYYY instead of MMDDYY. For example, 25 August 2063 could be specified as 082563 or as 08252063. (This is for historical reasons. If you cold-start an old controller and then immediately upgrade the firmware, it’s better to be five or ten years off rather than ninety- five.)

Example:

START 57 * 1 * 010101 #

Define January 1, 2001 As Holiday 1

START 57 * 2 * 010201 #

CMD 70: ENABLE SELECTED LINE MODULE INPUTS

Syntax:

START 70 * Inputs #

Description:

 A DTLM/MELM is required.

Line Module Inputs must be enabled to sense and report the status of the required line modules (DTLM/MELM) and the devices they monitor. All Line Module Inputs are Factory set to be enabled on controller start-up.

When a Line Module Input is set to operate and report as a Door it will report the following conditions:

◾ Secure

◾ Door Forced Open

◾ DOTL Alarm (Door Held Open Too Long)

◾ RQE Request Granted

◾ Open

◾ Short

◾ Excessive Noise

◾ Line Out Of Spec

◾ Tamper (DTLM3/MELM3 Only)

When the line module input is set to operate and report as an alarm it will report Door Forced condition as an Alarm Open and a Door Open Too Long alarm will report as an Alarm Active Too Long. All other reporting remains the same.

When a Request To Exit (RQE) push-button or sensor is activated, it will mask the line module input for the door time. When a line module input is masked by a time zone or by an alarm masking code, or is masked when a relay is actuated by an access code, unlock code, time zone or control code, only the door forced or line module input report is masked. All other reporting remains active.

Example:

 START 70 * 1234 #

9     RQE Masks Alarm Only While Activated (same as #2 + #4)

Description:

A DTLM/MELM is required (series 2 or 3).

Each RQE Input is Factory set to OFF.

The RQE input may be set to trigger the relay, for use with magnetic locks, if required. The RQE will trigger the relay once unless it is set to retrigger the relay for as long as it is activated, such as when using a motion sensor for automatic RQE activation. While the relay is triggered, the associated line module input will be masked. If Auto-Relock is off, CMD 85, the RQE will mask the input for the entire Door Mode time. The door may be opened and closed any number of times during this time without causing a Forced Door alarm. To allow only a single use of the door, Auto-Relock must be enabled.

For RQE devices to work properly (normally open on secure), the input must be enabled (factory default is enabled) by CMD 70 if it has been disabled with CMD 71. For functions 3 and 4 to operate properly, function 1 must first be selected.

If the RQE is disabled, either by default or by 73*5, using 73*3 or 73*4 will automatically do the equivalent of 73*1.

Example:

START 73 * 1 * 1 #

Change RQE On Door 1 To Trigger Relay

START 73 * 3 * 1 #

Change RQE On Door 1 To Retrigger While Actuated By A Motion Detector For Automatic Exit Control

0     NO

1     YES

Description:

Use this command to define a DOTL condition even if the door is unlocked legally. A DTLM/MELM is required.

The door-held-open condition normally does not report on a door unlocked by time zone or unlock code. It may be made to report on an unlocked door by making DOTL active when unlocked.

If the input associated with the door is masked by code or masked by a time zone, then a DOTL alarm will not report even if the DOTL is active while the door is unlocked. When you set the auto-relock of a door to OFF using CMD 85, the DOTL timer does not start until the door mode timer goes to zero.

If Auto-Relock On Open is enabled (also using CMD 85), the DOTL timer starts as soon as the door is opened.

Example:

START 75 * 1 * 1 #

Sets door-open-too-long alarm reporting always on even when a door is legally unlocked by an unlock code or by a time zone. Protects fire doors from being propped open when unlocked.

0     Minutes to lock out the reader

1     Time penalty in seconds for each invalid code (default)

2     Alarm threshold in seconds to exceed for tamper alarm

Time

1 - 100 minutes/seconds depending on N selection

Description:

The controller detects invalid code entries at ScramblePads or card readers. An invalid code is one that does not exist in the controller's memory or is being used at the wrong door or at the wrong time. Code tampering is reported on the printer and trips the tamper alarm relay if 3 invalid codes are entered on a ScramblePad or at a card reader within 1 minute.

In V7.0 and later, the controller can be set to specify the amount of time in minutes that a reader is locked out after a code tamper alarm has been invoked. No entry at this keypad/ reader will be recognized for the specified time period. If additional incorrect entries are attempted, this extends the lock-out interval. When this switch is selected (N = 0), the time argument is calculated in minutes rather than seconds. The default value is 1 minute.

The controller may be adjusted to alarm on a single invalid code, or more than three, through adjusting the invalid Code Tamper Alarm Penalty timer, factory set at 20 seconds, or the Alarm Threshold timer, set at 50 seconds. On start-up, the controller alarms once three invalid codes are entered within approximately a minute. Setting the penalty timer more than the threshold or the threshold less than the penalty will cause the alarm to trip on a single invalid code entry.

To disable Code Tamper alarms, set the penalty timer to 1 and the threshold to 100.

Once a Code Tamper alarm occurs, the controller reports the ScramblePad/MATCH Reader involved, locks out the ScramblePad keypad and any attached MATCH Reader from further code entry attempts and sounds its tone steadily while flashing its red status LED for about a minute. Any additional invalid code entries at that ScramblePad or card reader will immediately regenerate a code tamper alarm condition. Tamper mode remains in effect for the duration of the penalty time designated by the Time variable.

Example:

START 77 * 0 * 2 #

Sets reader lock-out time to 2 minutes

START 77 * 1 * 45 #

Changes Code Tamper Time Penalty To 45 Seconds To Trip Code Tamper Alarm On One Invalid Code Entry At Any ScramblePad/MATCH Reader.

Default:

Code Tamper Time Penalty = 20

Code Tamper Alarm Threshold = 50

RY3 Tamper Alarms

RY4 Trouble Alarms

Description:

DIGI*TRAC M2, M8, M16, and MSP/M64 controllers have one to four dedicated alarm relays; however, the M1N controller does not have dedicated alarm relays. This command enables a control relay to trigger when one of the dedicated alarm relays would normally fire.

If only one base relay number is specified, it applies to all four alarm relays. Default set- ting for the Model 1N is “78 * 4 #” – any alarm relay will trigger control relay 4.

The numbers to which you can set RY1 – RY4 are in the range of 0 – 72:

0          the Alarm Relay does not trigger any other relays

1 – 8    the Alarm Relay triggers a Base Relay (1-8)

9– 72   the Alarm Relay triggers an Expansion or Virtual Relay (1-64)

This command is active in V6.6 or later.

Example:

START 78 * 1 #

Changes all four Alarm Relays to trigger Relay 1.

START 78 * 2 * 3 * 2 * 1 #

Variables:

NN (Dedicated Alarm Relay)

1      General Alarms

2      Duress Alarms

3      Tamper Alarms

4      Trouble Alarms

Description:

DIGI*TRAC controllers have four dedicated alarm relay types. The Timer can be set for each relay, from 0 (zero), do not actuate on alarm, to 8100 seconds.

Controllers with a single alarm relay use the same four separate alarm timers to trip the relay. Each timer is set individually. If any of the 4 alarm timers is active the relay will actuate. If one or more of the four conditions is not meant to trip the relay, set its timer to 0 (Zero).

This setup is used for special interface capability to digital communicators that transmit any of the four system alarm conditions:

◾General Alarms on Relay 1

◾Duress Alarms on Relay 2

◾Tamper Alarms on Relay 3

◾Trouble Alarms on Relay 4

to a monitored central station alarm company or to trip local annunciation systems at a central guard station.

The General Alarm Relay is tripped by Door Forced or Held Opens, Input Tamper, Input Shorted, Noisy, Open, and Out-of-Spec, Occupancy and Passback Violations, and Dead- man Timer Expired.

The Duress Alarm Relay is tripped by a user entering their code with a duress digit at a keypad.

The Tamper Alarm Relay is triggered by Box Tamper, ScramblePad/MATCH Reader Physical Tamper and Code Tampering.

The Trouble Alarm Relay is tripped by Power Failures, Battery Problems, Network Inactive, Keypad, MATCH, Printer and Modem Off-Lines, Report Buffer Threshold Exceeded, and Tag Alerts.

Example:

START 79 * 10 * 1 #

Changes Alarm Relay 1 Actuation Time On Alarm To 10 Seconds

CMD 80: CHANGE DOOR TIME OF RELAY(S)

Syntax:

START 80 * Seconds * Relay 1 * [Relays 2 - 8] #

Description:

Each of a controller's base relays can be set up with simultaneous, yet different timers: Door Timer and Control Timer.

The Door Timer can be momentary with an adjustable time of 1-8100 seconds. It can also toggle its relay ON and OFF on consecutive Access Code or RQE entries if the time is set to 0 (zero) seconds. A Relay's Door Timer is used by both access codes and the RQE input.

The Door Timer only applies to the controller's door relays. On the M1N, this means that only Relay 1 has a Door Timer.

Door Mode Time applies to the alarm as well. If your relay/alarms are not set up to operate as Doors, this Door Mode Time only applies to the alarm input, not to the relay.

In Version 6.5 and earlier, you can only specify one relay per command. In Version 6.6 and later, you can specify up to 8 relays with the same command, where each relay is separated by asterisks. The second through eighth relay arguments are optional.

For information on the Control Timer, see CMD 81.

Example:

START 80 * 6 * 3 #

Change Door Unlock Timer To 6 Seconds For Door 3

START 80 * 6 * 3 * 5 * 6 #

The Control Timer can be momentary with an adjustable time of 1-8100 seconds. It can also toggle a relay ON and OFF on consecutive Control Trigger Code entries if its time is set to 0 (zero) seconds. A Relay's Control Time is used by Control Trigger Codes as well as by a line module input or relay to trigger a Control Zone.

In Version 6.6 and later, you can specify up to 8 relays with the same command, where each relay is separated by asterisks. The second through eighth relay arguments are optional.

For more information on the Door Timer see CMD 80.

Example:

START 81 * 60 * 5 #

Change Control Time To 60 Seconds For Relay 5

START 81 * 0 * 7 #

Change Control Time To Latch ON/Latch OFF For Relay 7

START 81 * 0 * 5 * 6 * 7 #

Syntax:

START 82 * N * Relay * Time Zone #

Variables:

1     Actuate Relay During Time Zone

2     Disable Relay During Time Zone

3     Clear Relay At End Of Time Zone

Description:

Relays may be actuated (door unlocked) during a time zone, going on at the start time of the zone and off at the end time of the zone.

Relays may be disabled during a time zone, becoming disabled at the start of the zone and reenabled at the end of the zone.

The current state of any relay may be auto-cleared at the end of a time zone to insure the automatic reversal of a code activated relay without the need for a manual resetting of the relay. This feature is most often used in combination with a manual Unlock by Code to ensure an automatic Relock by Time Zone.

This feature will not affect relays controlled by a code of higher priority than a time zone, such as Lock Down and Lock Open.

Example:

START 82 * 1 * 1 * 1 #

Auto-Unlock Door 1 During Time Zone 1

START 82 * 2 * 1 * 5 #

Auto-Disable Relay 1 (No Access) During Time Zone 5

START 82 * 3 * 6 * 1 #

Automatically Lock Door 6 At The End Of Time Zone 1

Syntax:

1     Trigger

2     Retrigger

3     Actuate

4     Disable

Description:

Any line module input can trigger any control zone. To cancel an alarm trigger of a control zone set the specified input to trigger control zone 0 (none).

To trigger a control zone means to start the zone's relay control timers at the moment the alarm occurs. The relay timers will start and time out even if the alarm stays active.

To retrigger means that the relay timers are not started until the alarm event restores.

To actuate a control zone means to actuate its relays for as long as the alarm is active and release them the moment the alarm restores. The Relay Timers are ignored when “Actuate” is used.

To disable means the relays are disabled while the alarm is active. Once it restores the dis- abled state is cleared.

If the relays have control delays programmed, they will be recognized by the trigger and retrigger controls but not by the actuate and disable controls.

This feature allows special control capabilities such as turning on perimeter lights when a line module input is triggered, or for annunciation of a specific line module input, or control of HVAC and lighting systems. When using a master control zone in this command, master control zones can only be triggered, not retriggered, actuated or disabled.

See CMD 260, 261 and 262 to have alarm conditions trigger control zones.

Example:

START 84 * 1 * 4 * 8 #

Line Module Input 4 Triggers Control Zone 8

Default:

None

1      Relay Rests ON

2      Relay Rests OFF

3      Auto-Relock On Door Close

4      Auto-Relock On Door Open

5      Auto-Relock OFF

Description:

Using this command, you can invert the operation and outputs of each relay.

On controller start-up, relays are set to Rest OFF in the de-energized state and the outputs are as marked on the circuit board. However, using this command, each relay can be changed to Rest ON in the energized state effectively inverting the meaning of the outputs: the normally open contact becomes the normally closed contact.

For example, when controlling elevators always change the relays to Rests ON. This is to ensure that if the control system power fails, the relay coil will be de-energized, thus allowing the elevator to be used.

Auto-Relock occurs 1/2 second after the door opens if the door is equipped with a door switch reporting to a DTLM or MELM. Auto-Relock may be set to activate on door closure for use with special lock and door control systems or turned off for use with mag locks with internal door status sensors.

Example:

START 85 * 1 * 45678 #

Change Relays 4 5 6 7 & 8 To Fail Safe For Elevator Control

START 85 * 5 * 1 #

Change Auto-Relock OFF For Mag Lock With Sensor For Door 1

START 85 * 3 * 2 #

Change Auto-Relock To Relock Lock 1/2 Second After Door 2 Is Closed To Allow For Door To Settle Before Relocking

1     Relay operates as a control relay / Alarm reports as an alarm

2     Relay operates as a door / Alarm reports as a forced door

Description:

Changing the operation of a door redefines line module input reporting and access code operation. Line module inputs on non-doors will print out as an alarm, not as Door Forced Open, whenever they are tripped.

Access codes or IDs entered at ScramblePad/MATCH readers of ‘non-doors’ will not actuate a relay when entered. A valid access code/ID will only mask the alarm associated with the ScramblePad/MATCH reader from which it is entered. This gives individual alarm zone control by code and by ScramblePad/MATCH reader. This is not possible with alarm control codes which can mask any input from any ScramblePad/MATCH Reader. This capability gives passback control to alarm management on non-doors.

Any relay/line module input can be changed to report as an alarm and not a door. Relay/ Line Module Input 1 can be a door and Relay/Line Module Input 2 can be an alarm-only input.

Example:

START 86 * 1 * 4 #

Defines Relay 4 As A Non-Door Relay & Alarm Reports As An Alarm.

Default:

Relays operate as door/alarm reports at forced door.

Description:

Printing a full or partial system status report lists setups, internal status, and event summaries. This report is auto-generated on every Sunday at midnight. An abbreviated version is automatically printed each day at midnight unless disabled by command.

Printing the date, time and version prints the current date, time and the controller’s CCM Version Number. It also reports the number of users inside and the total number of users in the controller's database.

Printing controller information prints all of the controller's setup parameters.

Printing the standard time zones prints a list of standard time zones with their starting time, ending time and days, and their current active or inactive state. Printing the master time zones prints a list of any of the master time zones which have been assigned standard time zones and their current active or inactive state.

Printing the access zones or control zones prints their time zone and door/relay setups.

Printing the relays & doors prints the relay setup tables and the relay status display. The detailed report shows the exact current status of each relay for troubleshooting assistance.

Printing the line module inputs prints the line module input setup tables and their current state.

Printing the keypads/MATCH prints the keypads/MATCH reader setup tables.

Printing the holidays prints the Holiday list.

Printing the HEC Factory Diagnostics prints a list of numerical tables useful to Hirsch factory engineers in diagnosing the internal performance of the controller and its attached system.

Several extensions have been added to V6.6 enabling the user to specify only a range of components from that device group. These optional arguments apply to the following command arguments:

• 88 * 5 * First * Last # – Prints a range of Standard Access Zones

• 88 * 6 * First * Last # – Print a range of Standard Control Zones

• 88 * 15 * First * Last # – Print a range of Master Access Zones

• 88 * 16 * First * Last # – Print a range of Master Control Zones

• 88 * 18 * First * Last # – Print a range of Expansion Relays

• 88 * 19 * First * Last # – Print a range of Detailed Expansion Relay Status.

• 88 * 28 * First * Last # – Print a range of Virtual Relays

• 88 * 29 * First * Last # – Print a range of Detailed Virtual Relay Status

For a complete list of values generated when you use one or more of these command variations, refer to Chapter 5.

In V6.6, the 88*0 printout prints the various sections in a different order than V6.5. An 88*0 printout is composed of most of the individual printouts put together, 88*1 and up. Since V6.6, they print out in numeric order (that is, Grand Master Time Zones, 88*14, prints out after Holidays, 88*13, instead of after the Master Time Zones, 88*4).

If you have a specific need for the V6.5 format, use 88*0*1 to print the sections in the old arrangement.

In V6.6, options 5, 6, 15, 16, 18, 19, 28, and 29 may take up to two additional arguments. If present, only the indicated item or items will be printed.

There's a variant option, 88*0*2#, which prints options 1, 2, 3, 4, 14, 5, 15, 6, 16, 7, 8, 11, 13, 18, 28, 20, 23, 24, 27, 31, 33.

In V7, 88*11 and 88*12 send the same message which does not include the MATCH LED1/LED2 settings.

Example:

START 88 * 1 #

Prints Time, Date, Controller CCM Version, Number Of Users Inside & Total Users

START 88 * 16 * 193 #

In V6.6 and later, prints Master Control Zone #193.

START 88 * 28 * 20 * 30 #

In V6.6 and later, prints Virtual Relays 20 through 30.

Description:

This command controls several functions of the MATCH Reader Interface Board (MRIB) or the card readers attached to the MRIB. The factory setup for the reader status LED is to be normally off and to momentarily turn on when a card is read. This command allows the status LED functions to be reversed.

The MRIB can detect when the bezel of its mounting base is removed and can report the bezel OFF as a physical tamper alarm on the system printer, on the tamper alarm relay, and on the host PC, if installed. The factory setup for physical tamper is OFF. This command enables tamper reporting to be changed to ON.

When you enable Card Reader ScramblePad Sharing, it allows a ScramblePad or reader to use both reader types in the same dual technology setup. Ordinarily, a ScramblePad is only allowed to recognize one reader type at a time; however, some companies must provide access for employees who possess either a mag stripe card or a prox card in addition to a code. This feature enables employees to enter their code then swipe either their prox or mag stripe card to gain access.

There are several new options added for the DTA (DIGI*TRAC Annunciator). These enable backlighting and display threat levels.

Example:

START 103 * 1 * 1 * 1 * 0 #

Changes Card Reader Address 1 LED on Channel 1 to ON

1     Printer

2     SNIB

Description:

This command allows the printer and/or SNIB to be disabled during the specified time zone. This reduces the quantity of printouts which occur during high activity periods, or during any time period that printed records are not required.

Disabling the printer prevents all transactions from being logged to the printer and to the controller's internal memory buffer.

The SNIB can be disabled during specified times to disable network communications to and from the specified controller. If the network is active when the SNIB is disabled, communications will remain active until the S*NET host PC logs off the network. Logging back on will not be allowed until the SNIB is enabled at the end of the specified Time Zone.

To re-enable any device, re-enter the command and specify Time Zone 0 for that device.

Example:

START 105 * 1 * 1 #

1       Trigger Dialing Host

2       Postpone Dialing Host

3       Cancel Dialing Host

4       Disable Answering Host

Description:

This command is part of the Remote Site Management feature set. It enables time zone control of the modem at a remote site. The modem can be set to dial the host PC at the main site at the start time of a specified time zone. This selection can be used to automatically upload a remote site's buffered events and alarms on a daily or weekly scheduled basis. It can also be used to provide a level of “supervision,” or automatic check-in, ‘I'm OK’ message, between any remote site and the main site. The second selection can be used to delay any alarms or events from dialing the host until the end time of the selected time zone. The third selection will cancel any attempt to dial the host during the specified time zone and the fourth selection disables the controller from answering the host during the specified time zone.

In v6.6 the dialing modem stops attempting to contact the remote site after trying 255 times in succession. (A typical attempt takes 30-40 seconds; 255 tries takes 1 to 3 hours.) The modem will resume trying the next time something triggers its modem dialer logic, or the next day, whichever comes first; however, after 255 attempts it will stop again.

In v7.0 and later, you can specify up to four time zones as triggers for dialing the host.

Example:

START 108 * 1 * 5 #

Dial Host At Start Time Of Time Zone 5

START 108 * 4 * 1 #

Disable Answering Host During Time Zone 1

START 108 * 1 * 2 * 4 * 5 #

Dial Host At Start Time Of Time Zone 2, Time Zone 4, and Time Zone 5

Default:

None. No Time Zone control of modem.

Variables:

0 OFF
1 ON
2 OFF

Description:

This command is used to track & record the occurrences of invalid code usage at each ScramblePad or card reader on the controller. An invalid code is one that does not exist in the controller's database or memory. In some installations, system managers are concerned over attempts to guess valid codes or the unauthorized use of an unreported lost, stolen, or unidentified card by either authorized users or unauthorized users. This feature can track these attempts by recording each use of an invalid code, which may be immediately followed by the use of a valid code. When this feature is enabled the actual invalid code entered will be printed out.

The ability to record invalid codes can illustrate if an orderly sequence or a random sequence of codes is being used in an attempt to discover a valid code. Likewise, it may disclose infrequent honest errors by authorized users during the code entry process such as digit transpositions or incorrect digit sequences.

When invalid codes are turned ON, it will display both invalid ScramblePad and MATCH codes.

In v6.6, at a dual technology reader with “Invalid Code Reporting” enabled, an invalid card and code combination will result in the controller sending the card code to the host. In v6.6, when presented with an unenrolled card, will wait for a code and then looks up the resulting dual code in the database, even when in “Card/Code Only Mode” (CMD 109). This means that invalid code reporting doesn't take effect until after the dual code is rejected. “Invalid Code Reporting” can still be used to determine a card's 8-digit MATCH code at a dual technology reader. Simply present the unenrolled card, then enter 000# at the ScramblePad. When the combination of card + 000 is denied by the controller, the card's MATCH code is then sent to the host.

Example:

START 109 * 1 #

Changes Invalid Code Reporting To ON

Default:

Invalid Code Reporting OFF

Variables:

N

1      Entry Delay

2      Exit Delay

Description:

Entry and exit alarm delays are required when security system designs call for the alarm control ScramblePad/MATCH Reader to be placed inside the secure area. The entry/exit delay range is 0 - 255 seconds.

When an entry delay is used, an authorized person enters the secured area which causes an alarm condition on the line module input monitoring the entrance door or area. The alarm is not reported if the authorized individual proceeds to the interior ScramblePad/MATCH reader and enters a cancel entry delay code. If the cancel entry delay code is not entered in time, the alarm will be reported. An entry delay warning report is sent to the system printer whenever an input with an entry delay time goes into alarm. An audible entry or exit delay tone can be sounded on the ScramblePad if required by using a master control zone.

This command enables the setting of the entry delay timer. To re-secure the same facility, an exit timer code is required to enable the authorized user to leave the facility without causing an alarm. An Exit Delay Warning report is sent to the system printer whenever an exit delay code is used.

To disable the use of an Entry or Exit Delay Timer set the delay time to 0 (zero).

Example:

START 110 * 1 * 45 * 1 #

Change the Entry Delay Timer To 45 Seconds on Line Module Input 1

Default:

Entry delay = 0 seconds (delay disabled)

Exit delay = 0 seconds (delay disabled)

Variables:

Doors

Doors/Readers. Associates specified Doors (and corresponding entry/exit Readers) where 125 means Doors 1, 2, and 5 which assumes the association of corresponding readers 1, 2, 5, 9, 10, and 13.

In Version 6.7, Access Zones may be arranged individually by reader, using the second Doors option to specify a different set corresponding to readers 9-16.

Description:

This command is used to define a Standard Access Zone by specifying one time zone for a specified group of doors. This allows a time zone to be set or changed for one or more doors of an access zone without affecting the other doors of the same zone.

Unlike this command, CMD 24 requires a time zone to be specified for each and every door of the specified access zone. Also, CMD 24 does not allow partial changes to the time zone specification of an Access Zone. CMD 117 allows the time zone of a single door to be changed without specifying a time zone for any other door. CMD 17 forces the time zone to be the same for all doors of the specified Access Zone. CMD 117 does not force the Time Zone for all doors, but allows individual settings one door at a time.

Example:

START 117 * 4 * 1 * 2 #

Sets Time Zone For Door 2 (Readers 2 and 10) only to Time Zone 1 in Access Zone 4

START 117 * 5 * 2 * 24 * 12 #

1     Readers 1-8

2     Readers 9-16

Description:

This command enables you to define standard access zones, using one time zone per reader. Each reader must be assigned a time zone.

Using one time zone per reader expands the capability of access zones by restricting access by time zone on a reader by reader basis. Each reader in a standard access zone can be restricted by any of the available time zones. Entering Time Zone 0 for a reader restricts all access at that reader.

CMD 24 defines Readers 1-8 and Readers 9-16 to use the same set of eight time zones. CMD 124 enables you to set Readers 1-8 separately from Readers 9-16. Possible applications include entry/exit readers where the exit readers must be configured to allow exit at any time.

Each reader must have a time zone value entered during programming. When a reader is not authorized in an access zone, enter Time Zone 0 in that reader field.

CMD 117 allows one or more time zones to be changed for a specified reader without affecting the time zone setting of any other reader(s).

Refer to CMD 17 for a convenient method to add standard access zones with one time zone for all doors.

Example:

START 124 * 10 * 1 * 40 * 0 * 1 * 5 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 #

START 124 * 10 * 2 * 65 * 65 * 65 * 65 * 65 * 65 * 65 * 65 #

Assign Standard Access Zone 10 To Time Zone 40 on Reader 1, TZ 0 on Reader 2 5 6 7 &

Syntax:

 START 140 * Report Buffer Alarm Threshold #

Description:

This Command is part of the Remote Site Management feature set. It establishes the quantity of alarm events in either the standard on-board alarm buffer or the optional expanded alarm buffer that will cause the controller at the remote site to dial the Host PC.

The standard on-board buffer can hold up to 100 alarm events so its threshold setting can be from 1 event to 100 events. The expanded buffer can hold up to 22,300 events so its setting can be from 1 event to 22,300 events.

Example:

START 140 * 50 #

Dial Host When 50 Alarm Events Are In the Standard Buffer

START 140 * 1000 #

Dial Host When 1,000 Alarm Events Are In the Expanded Buffer

Default:

Description:

This command enables passback controls to be disabled during a specified time zone. This is often used to disable passback controls during shift changes, lunch periods, or other times of high traffic to reduce the number of inadvertent passback violations. The controller automatically issues a forgive all users just prior to re-enabling passback. This command also disables occupancy counting and controls during the specified time zone.

This means that if the controller has been programmed to respond in an automatic mode to occupancy counts, such as mask or unmask an area, or go from 2-person access rule to 1- person access rule, then these features will not be operational during the specified time zone. The controller automatically issues a forgive all users just prior to re-enabling occupancy controls which means it sets the inside user count for the controlled area to zero.

Example:

START 146 * 1 #

Disable Passback And Occupancy Controls During Time Zone 1

Default:

Passback Disabled During Time Zone 0 (Never)

CMD 170: ENABLE EXPANSION LINE MODULE INPUT

Syntax:

START 170 * Expansion Input # (v6.6 or earlier)

START 170 * Expansion Input [* Exp. Input...* Exp. Input] # (v7)

Description:

Expansion line module inputs are factory set to be enabled to sense the alarm devices attached to the required DTLM or MELM on start-up. Unused inputs should be disabled with Command 171.

When an expansion line module input is set to report as an alarm, as it is on factory setup, it will report the following conditions:

◾ Secure

◾ Alarm

◾ Mask Request Granted

◾ Open

◾ Short

◾ Excessive Noise

◾ Line Out Of Spec

◾ Tamper (DTLM3/MELM3 Only)

When the line module input is set to report as a door with CMD 186, the alarm will report as a Door Forced Open and as Door Open Too Long. All other reporting remains the same.

When a Request To Exit (RQE) push button or sensor is activated it will mask the line module input for the door mode time. When a line module input is masked by a time zone or by an alarm masking code, or is masked when a relay is actuated by an access code, unlock code, time zone or control code, only the door forced or line module input report is masked. All other reporting remains active.

Using v7.0, you can enable or disable up to 8 expansion inputs all at once as shown in the extended arguments. v7.0 also supports a new alarm expansion board type, AEB, that enables you to install up to four input expansion boards—and up to 32 expansion inputs— into one controller.

Example:

START 170 * 1 #

Enable Expansion Line Module Input 1 To Report Alarms

START 170 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 15 * 16 #

For V7.0, this enables Expansion Alarm Input 2, 3, 4, 15, and 16 to Report Alarms.

Default:

Enabled

Description:

Each RQE input is factory set to OFF.

The RQE will trigger the masking of the input once unless it is set to continuously trigger for as long as it is activated.

Expansion line module inputs set to operate/report as a door can be used to monitor auxiliary doors such as emergency fire exits. These doors may be authorized employee exits but not entrances. The RQE input would be used to mask the door forced alarm upon authorized exit. Door Open Too Long alarm reporting also operates on expansion line module inputs reporting as doors.

Expansion line module inputs are set to report as zone alarms from the factory. In this case the RQE reports as Mask Request Granted. This enables local masking from high security key switches or other normally open switch devices.

Example:

START 173 * 1 * 1 #

Change RQE on the expansion input 1 to re-trigger masking

Default:

RQE OFF

Description:

The expansion line module inputs masking time is set up with the door timer.

Any expansion line module input may be set to operate and report as a door or as an alarm. Each input may be assigned to an access zone or to a control zone, or to both, depending on how the input is to be controlled.

When assigned to an access zone for one-ScramblePad/MATCH Reader-to-one-input type control, the access code used to mask an input uses the door timer as the masking timer. When assigned to a control zone for any-ScramblePad/MATCH Reader-to-any-input type control, the control code used to mask the input also uses the door timer as the masking timer.

The door time is momentary with an adjustable time of 0-8100 seconds (0=Toggle). An expansion line module input's door timer is used by access codes and the RQE input.

For more information on expansion input control time, see CMD 181.

1     Triggers

2     Re-Triggers

3     Actuate

4     Disable

Description:

Any expansion line module input can trigger any control zone. To cancel an alarm trigger of a control zone set the specified input to trigger control zone 0 (none). To trigger a control zone means to start the zone's relay control timers at the moment the alarm occurs.

The relay timers will start and time out even if the alarm stays active. To retrigger means that the relay timers are not started until the alarm event restores. To actuate a control zone means to actuate its relays for as long as the alarm is active and release them the moment the alarm restores.

The relay timers are ignored when ‘actuate’ is used. To disable means the relays are disabled while the alarm is active. Once it restores the disabled state is cleared. If the relays have control delays programmed, they will be recognized by the trigger and retrigger controls but not by the actuate and disable controls.

This feature allows special control capabilities such as turning on perimeter lights when an alarm is triggered, or for annunciation of a specific line module input, or control of HVAC and lighting systems. When using a master control zone in this command, master control zones can only be triggered, not retriggered, actuated, or disabled.

1      Relay Rests ON

2      Relay Rests OFF (for v6.5 and earlier)

Description:

The operation and outputs of each relay may be inverted. On system start up they rest in the de-energized, or OFF state and the outputs are as marked on the circuit board. Each relay may be changed to rest in the energized or ON state which inverts the meaning of the outputs: the normally opened contact becomes the normally closed contact.

For example, when controlling elevators, always change the relays to resting ON. This ensures that if the control system power fails, the relay coil will be de-energized, falling to the OFF condition, thereby allowing the elevator to be used.

Example:

START 185 * 1 * 1 #

Change Expansion Relay 1 To Rest ON For Elevator Control

Default:

Relay Rests OFF

1      Report As A Door

2      Report As An Alarm

Description:

Any expansion line module input may be set up to report as a door or as an alarm zone. Each input may be assigned to an access zone, control zone, or both, depending on how the input is to be controlled.

When set to report as a door, the input will report Door Forced Open and Door Open Too Long alarms. This can provide monitoring and reporting of secure emergency exit doors. If these doors are to be used for authorized exit, they should be equipped with RQE push button or motion sensors to mask the Door Forced Alarm condition. If they are held open too long, a DOTL alarm will occur.

Each of these doors can be equipped with a ScramblePad and controlled with an access code. This enables access by alarm on these doors. Opening them without a code will cause a Door Forced Alarm. They can also be controlled from a central ScramblePad after an intercom request from the door location. An access request to a central office would enable an operator to enter a code to momentarily mask the specific door authorized for use.

When set up as an alarm zone, the input will report alarm and alarm active too long conditions. The alarm report occurs when the input is first tripped. An AATL alarm functions like a DOTL alarm on a door. If a code has been entered to mask a line module input momentarily but the sensor stays tripped after the momentary mask time expires, an AATL will be reported.

Example:

START 186 * 1 * 1 #

Description:

Any expansion relay can trigger any control zone. To cancel a relay trigger of a control zone set the specified input to trigger Control Zone 0 (none). To trigger a control zone means to start the zone's relay control timers at the moment the expansion relay changes state. The relay timers will start and time out even if the relay stays actuated. To retrigger means that the relay timers are not started until the relay reverts back to its resting state.

This feature allows special control capabilities such as shunting other alarm panels when a relay is triggered, or for annunciation of a specific relay output, or control HVAC and lighting systems. When using a master control zone in this command note that master control zones can only be triggered, not retriggered, actuated, or disabled.

CMD 191: CHANGE PAGE LENGTH FOR PRINTER

Syntax:

START 191 * LINES # 

Description:

All DIGI*TRAC controllers include the capability to print in different languages. To accommodate these languages, different countries will use different paper lengths for their standard computer paper. For instance, the standard European paper size is A4. In addition, some companies use larger or smaller paper formats, like legal size or A4, in their system printers, allowing the controller to print more lines or fewer lines of text on a page.

Use this command to specify the number of lines per page you require for your system printer.

The default page length is the American standard for 8.5 x 11: 58 lines per page.

Example:

START 191 * 66 #

Print 66 Lines per page

START 191 * 0 #

Never form-feed the printer (this is the default)

Default:

0 lines per page (never form feed printer)

1      First Number

2      Second Number

3      Third Number

4      Fourth Number

Description:

Use this command to configure up to four host phone numbers a controller at a remote site can call. Each phone number can contain up to 16 digits.

Most networks only have a single main site phone number; however, this feature accepts up to 4 phone numbers as alternate numbers which can be called if the first number is either busy or out-of-service.

The controller at the remote site will dial the first number first. If there is only one number programmed, it will continue to dial until the call has been completed. If a second, third or fourth number has been programmed into the controller, it will automatically rotate through the numbers until the call has been successfully completed. This allows for an emergency backup host to receive calls from remote sites if the primary host at the main site is either busy or off-line.

This command is part of the Remote Site Management feature set.

Example:

START 193 * 1 * 17142509990 #

Sets Phone Number 1 to 714 250-9990

START 193 * 2 * 18005551212 #

Use this command to force an automatic call-back from the controller(s) at the remote site to the host at the main site whenever the host initiates a call to the remote site. This insures that the call originates from the host at the main site, not from an unknown host attempting an unauthorized logon to a controller at the remote site.

This command is part of the Remote Site Management feature set.

Some networks do not allow remote site management from multiple hosts. If this operation is needed, do not enable host call-back.

On some networks the remote site is billed for phone changes related to communications between it and the main site. Enable host call-back if this mode of operation is needed.

Comment: 

In v6.5, you had to turn the host call-back feature on (“dialoutonly”), then use 198*4*0*0*0*0# to trigger the actual dial-back from the panel. There could be complications: if this feature was enabled but the host didn't send CMD 198*4, nothing would hap- pen: it wouldn't let the host “log on.” With v6.6 and later, attempting to log on triggers a dial-back, exactly as if a 198*4 command were sent.

Example:

START 195 * 1 #

Enables Host Call Back

Default:

Disabled (195*2)

Description:

The DIGI*TRAC controllers all include the capability of printing in different languages. The standard local parallel printer, as well as the optional remote serial printer using the Serial Communications Interface Board (SCIB), will both be affected by the language selection.

The change in printed language affects the presentation of all transactions, alarms, programming commands and responses and reports, but does not affect the system setup & status printouts. Switching between languages can be performed at any time and does not affect controller operation in any way.

Once a language is selected it is advisable to use Command 00 * 0 to print the entire built- in set of programming commands as a hard copy reference in the new language.

Example:

START 200 * 2 #

Print Dutch

Default:

0 (English)

CMD 204: DEFINE MASTER ACCESS ZONE (66-127)

Syntax:

START 204 * Standard Access Zone * Master Access Zone * Col. 1-8 #

Description:

A master access zone (MAZ) can be defined with up to eight standard access zones assigned to it. This provides a convenient way for special access authority to be created for high level groups of users, such as corporate management requiring access to multiple locations throughout a site, region, or country.

To remove a standard access zone from a master access zone, use this command to redefine the specified master access zone.

The printed master access zone report appears as follows:

A master access zone consists of up to eight standard access zones, plus tag and alert flags. In v6.6 provide up to four extension flags to handle SNUX conditions, two-person rules, and anti-passback options. In v7.0 these flags are moved to the user code records.

Two-person rule and anti-passback do not work in combination with each other for any Hirsch software using v7.1.11. One person’s passback status is updated but not the other.

The Special Needs Extended Unlock (SNUX) condition prolongs the interval when the door is unlocked. This is used for wheelchairs, deliverymen, or other requestors who generally take more time to enter or exit a door than an average individual. Door mode, door open, and door delay times can all be extended. This is used with CMD 282.

Example:

START 204 * 9 * 66 * 2 #

START 204 * 12 * 66 * 7 #

Define Master Access Zone 66 to include Standard Access Zone 9 in Column 2 and Standard Access Zone 12 To Column 7

Card

Description:

Use this command to enroll a sequence of card-only users. Batch-adding is a convenient way to enroll many users into the controller in a single programming session. It can be used to pre-add users to a controller for future issuance by adding them with Access Zone 0 (zero). When issued to a user, simply change the access zone from zero, no access, to the required access zone.

Any number of users can be added in sequence by using this command. Since this is a batch command, you don’t have to reenter the entire command syntax between each new user of the same access zone. Once this batch-add command is started, each additional card is swiped in the reader in sequence until all new users are added.

Once each card is enrolled, a new user record is printed. You can verify that a card has been successfully enrolled by using CMD 316 to test a card and trigger a relay.

The users are added from the specified user number and fill in any available user number required to complete the process, skipping any existing users. The command automatically terminates when the specified number of new users has been enrolled or after the programming mode time-out expires or by using CMD 96.

Description:

This command enables batch-enrolling of cards for existing users. It is the second step in a two-step process: the first step auto-adds users through CMDs 320, 321, or 322. Batch- enrolling is a convenient way to enroll cards for many users in a single programming session without tedious, error-prone manual data entry.

Any number of user's cards can be enrolled in sequence by using this command.

Once the batch-enroll command is started, each card to be enrolled is swiped in the reader until all users are enrolled. The command automatically terminates when the specified range of user's cards have been enrolled. This command can be terminated at any time using CMD 96.

Be sure to watch the card reader status LED when enrolling each card. A rapid flicker means a bad card read and requires the misread card to be re-swiped. cards are enrolled from the specified starting user number and affect all user numbers with cards over the specified range of users, skipping any non-card users within the range. To enroll one user specify that user's number as both the starting and ending number. The command automatically enrolls the card and card + code data for each multiple ID user format without further commands being required.

Description:

This command enables you to batch-change of cards for existing users.

Batch-changing is a convenient way to re-card many users in a single programming session without tedious and error-prone manual data entry.

Any number of user's cards can be changed in sequence by using this command.

Once this batch-change command is started, each card to be changed is swiped in the reader until all users are changed. The command automatically terminates when the specified range of user's cards have been changed. This command can be terminated at any time using CMD 96.

Cards are changed from the specified starting user number and affect all user numbers with cards over the specified range of users, skipping any non-card users within the range. To change one user specify that user's number as both the starting and ending number.

2       Card Only (1 record)

3       Dual Only (1 record)

4       Card & Dual (2 records)

5       Keypad & Dual (2 records)

6       Keypad & Card (2 records)

7       Keypad & Card & Dual (3 records)

Effective with Version 7.0, all ID Formats will use just one record each.

Description:

This command enables you to batch-restore current users. It is designed to restore user records in a controller containing damaged, corrupted, or deleted records when manual re- entry of the original keypad code, card codes, and dual codes is required.

For example, if it is not possible to retrieve user cards to complete the restoral, this method restores the records so that the original cards would again be operational. It allows the manual entry of user records from a ScramblePad or a printed record listing the user codes.

To use this command:

1. Determine the user function, ID format, and access or control zone number for the first group of users.

2. Enter the command with the required information. The yellow LED 1 turns ON and a user code printout header prints on the line printer. This means the controller is in Batch-Restore Mode waiting for you to enter the user number and code information.

3. Enter the user number and code information. Use the proper syntax as determined by the IDF #. Enter all users sharing the same function, ID format, and zone during a batch session.

4. When done, use CMD 96 to terminate batch mode. The yellow LED 1 is now OFF. Repeat the process for each group of similar users.

You may also enter all users with similar IDFs during one batch-restore session, then use CMD 325 to change the function and zone for a range of users. For a discussion of IDFs, see “ID Formats (IDF)” on page 3-24.

With v7.0 and later, all ID formats use just one record each.

Example:

START 225 * 1 * 2 * 2 #

CMD 235: CHANGE OCCUPANCY COUNT LIMITS

Syntax:

START 235 * N * Count #

Variables:

N

1    Minimum Count

2    Maximum Count

Description:

This command enables you to set occupancy count limits for an area controlled by entry and exit readers. You can set both a minimum and a maximum limit.

The maximum count can be set in a range from 0 (zero)–which is disabled–up to 32766.

When the area is occupied by one less than the minimum setting, an occupancy violation alarm occurs after a 20-second delay. As long as the occupancy remains below the minimum, the occupancy violation alarm will recur once every 2 minutes.

The maximum occupancy count is used to override and deny access to the controlled area by more users than the maximum count. If the maximum count is set to 50 the 51st authorized user will be denied access. Once the count falls below the maximum, additional authorized users may access the area. The maximum count may be set from 0 (zero), which is disabled, to the maximum user memory in the controller.

You can use the minimum and maximum counts set here to trigger control zones for special alarms, area annunciators, occupancy status signs, or other purposes using CMD 236.

Example:

START 235 * 1 * 6 #

START 235 * 2 * 50 #

Set Min Count to 6 and Max Count to 50

Default:

Minimum = 2

Maximum =0

Description:

This command allows a standard or master control zone to be triggered on any of the above changes in occupancy count. It also uses the minimum and maximum counts set with CMD 235.

This command can be used to trip alarms, area annunciators, or occupancy status signs. It can also be used to automatically mask the interior alarms in a controlled area during a ‘first person in’ condition or unmask the area during a ‘last person out’ condition.

Example:

START 236 * 5 * 12 #

Some areas require 2-person open and 2-person close rules but allow 1-person access once the area is open. In other cases, the area may require 6 persons (3 sets of 2 persons) to be inside before switching to 1-person access.

The maximum count can be set from 0 (zero)–which is disabled–up to 32766.

Description:

Use this command to specify that only a single access zone can occupy a controlled area at a time. You can authorize more than one access zone to use the same secure area; however, when the area is unoccupied and this command is enabled (ON), the first access zone to enter automatically excludes all other authorized access zones until the area is again unoccupied.

With CMD 238 enabled, when the area is occupied, access attempts by other authorized users of other valid access zones are overridden and denied.

Syntax:

START 255 * N * Seconds (1-100) #

Variables:

N

1    Granted Code Time Increment

2    Granted Access Time Threshold

Description:

This command is used to restrict access to 2 persons at a time in high security areas, or in areas where industrial safety is an issue. It requires that the requestors enter two different but valid access codes before the system grants access.

If both entry and exit ScramblePad/MATCH readers are installed at the access point, 2- person access rule is active in both directions of travel.

2-Person Access Rule is controlled by two time settings. A time increment in seconds is set for each granted access code. A time setting in seconds is also set to establish a threshold time that must be exceeded for access to be granted. If the time settings are correct, the threshold will be exceeded and access granted when two valid codes are entered in succession. If the first code's timer runs out before a second valid code is entered, access will be denied.

In v7.0 and later, you can specify both a time increment and time threshold using the same command line as shown in the second command syntax.

When the first valid code is entered at a 2-person access point the code timer starts counting down from its set maximum value towards zero. When a second valid access code is entered the two times are added together, and if their combined time exceeds the access grant threshold time setting, the door will unlock. If the combined total of the first code time and the second code time does not exceed the threshold time, the door will not unlock. This enables control over how much of a delay is allowed between the two code entries.

A formula that might help you to remember this is:

If,

2x - t ³ y

where,

x = granted code increment

t = the time the user actually takes to enter the code, and

y = the granted access threshold, then access is granted.

The controller automatically checks to prevent a valid code from being entered twice in a row in order to grant access. 2-Person Access Rule Violation reports are printed if only one code is entered before the timeout, or if the same code is entered twice in a row. A violation triggers the tamper alarm relay, since this is considered an attempt to bypass the controller.

2-Person Access Rule can be disabled during specified time zones using CMD 257. This rule can also be combined with occupancy controls for even greater security.

Example:

START 255 * 1 * 10 #

START 255 * 2 * 15 #

Granted Code Increment is 10 seconds and the Granted Access Threshold is 15 seconds.

The previous example can follow one of two scenarios, depending on when the second user actually enters his/her access code as shown below.

To expedite things, we suggest that you formulate a time increment that is practical for entering codes into this door under any foreseeable situation, then apply the same time interval to the time threshold.

So, for example, if you specified that 10 seconds is a reasonable value for the granted code time increment, designate 10 seconds for the granted access time threshold.

So,
START 255 * 1 * 10 #

START 255 * 2 * 10 #

Default:

2-Person Rule Time Increment = 10 seconds

2-Person Rule Grant Threshold = 11 seconds

Description:

Use this command to select which door relays connected to a controller should operate during a 2-person rule condition. This mode of operation only applies to access codes, not to control codes. Since access codes and control codes can both affect the same relay, two entirely different modes of operation are possible on the same relay at the same time.

You can disable a 2-person rule during specified time zones using CMD 257. This rule can also be combined with passback controls for even greater security.

CMD 260: PRINT ACTION CONTROL BLOCKS

Syntax:

START 260 * ACB * [last ACB in range] #

Description:

This command prints a single ACB, a range of ACBs, or a complete list of ACBs showing how specified alarms types take action. This includes information on which relays, if any, are triggered when they are active in the controller.

When only the first ACB argument is used, only a single ACB is specified, unless ACB = 0 in which case all ACBs are printed.

When both the first and optional second ACB argument are used, the first argument defines the first ACB in the range and the second argument defines the last ACB in the range.

Several new ACBs have been added for v7. These are written in italics.

The printout created by this command is self-explanatory. Use this printout to increase your understanding of system operation. Also, it’s a good idea to print out the current ACB status before performing any ACB programming.

Example:

START 260 * 1 #

Prints ACB 1

START 260 * 0 #

Prints All ACBs

START 260 * 1 * 30 #

Prints ACBs 1 - 30

Default:

None

3     Trigger Tamper Relay

4     Trigger Trouble Relay

5     Dial Host

6     Log

Description:

This command changes how all types of alarms take action, such as which relays are triggered, or if they are triggered at all, when they are active in the controller. The Alarm Action Control Blocks (ACBs) are the means by which the controller knows what to do with each alarm event.

Print the ACB chart with CMD 260 for a better understanding of system operation and before you program any ACB. The log selection determines whether the alarm condition reports to the local printer or, on the network, to a host PC program, like Velocity.

A new version of this command is offered in v7.0 which allows all six of these options plus “Report as Alarm” (default on most of them) and have each option controlled by a time zone instead of a simple ON/OFF control.

Additional ACBs are found in v7.0 including RQE/MRQs, ‘Alarm Secure’ and ‘Network Active/Inactive’ conditions

Example:

START 261 * 1 * 0 #

Alarm Action Control Block 1 Takes No Action

Default:

The following table provides all the Alarm Action Control Block defaults for both CMD 261 and 262.

The Action Control Block input mappings are shown below. The ACBs added for v7 are noted in red italics.

1. This indicates that the ACB can be triggered when secured as well as when active. For example, a DOTL can trigger an alarm both when it is active and when it is inactive (and the door is closed).

CMD 262: ACTION CONTROL BLOCK TRIGGERS CONTROL ZONE

Syntax:

START 262 * Action Control Block * Control Zone [*Control Zone On Secure] #

Description:

This command enables you to trigger a control zone (SCZ or MCZ) using an alarm condition or other event. By triggering a control zone with an alarm condition, you can cause special control condition or annunciation to occur. When the ACB returns to its secure state, the control zone is inactivated.

An optional variable indicates when an ACB can turn control zone control off for a specified SCZ or MCZ.

Example:

START 262 * 1 * 192 #

Alarm Action Control Block 1 Triggers Control Zone 192

START 262 * 1 * 192 * 193 #

Alarm Action Control Block 1 triggers Control Zone 192 and initiates Control Zone 193 when the ACB returns to its secure value.

Default:

For a complete list of Alarm Action Control Block defaults, see Table 4-2 starting on page 4-188.

CMD 270: CHANGE SUPERVISED LINE MODULE TYPE FOR LINE MODULE INPUT

Syntax:

START 270 * N * Line Module Input (v6.6 and earlier)

START 270 * N * Line Module Input [* LMI * ... * LMI] # (v7)

Variables:

N = Line Module Type

1      DTLM1/MELM1

2      DTLM2/MELM2

3      DTLM3/MELM3

Description:

This command is used to select the type of DTLM (DIGI*TRAC Line Module) or MELM (Miniature Embedded Line Module) being installed on each line module input. The factory default setting is set to DTLM2/MELM2. If a DTLM1/MELM1 is installed without changing the setting, it will function properly. If a DTLM3/MELM3 is being installed, the setting must be changed for proper operation.

DTLM1 / MELM1 – 1 Line Module Input

DTLM2 / MELM2 – 1 Line Module Input, 1 RQE Input

DTLM3 / MELM3 – 1 Line Module Input, 1 RQE Input, 1 Tamper Input

In v7.0 and later, you can specify two or more line module inputs in the same command line as shown above. In v6.6 or earlier, you can only specify one line module input per command statement.

This command is very important, because the controller cannot automatically detect what type of line module has been installed.

DTLM

The screw terminals on each DTLM are labeled as follows: HI LO is the terminal for connection to the DIGI*TRAC controller's line module input.

Observe polarity: HI to HI, LO to LO. The terminal labeled 1 is for the Alarm Sensor, the terminal labeled 2 is the RQE Device and the terminal labeled 3 is the Tamper Switch.

MELM

The flying leads on each MELM are color-coded as follows: White for HI and Black for LO.

Observe polarity: white to HI, Black to LO. The orange wires are for the Alarm Sensor, the blue for the RQE Device, and the green is for the Tamper Switch.

Example:

START 270 * 3 * 1 #

Change Line Module To DTLM3 / MELM3 For Line Module Input 1

START 270 * 2 * 1 * 3 * 5 #

Change Line Module To DTLM2 / MELM2 For Line Module Inputs 1, 3, and 5

Default:

DTLM2

Example:

START 273 * 40 * 1 #

Change RQE On Door 1 To Be Disabled During Time Zone 40

START 273 * 65 * 3 #

Change RQE On Door 3 To Be Disabled During Time Zone 65, i.e. all the time.

CMD 280: CHANGE DOOR DELAY TIMER FOR RELAY

Syntax:

START 280 * Seconds * Door #

Description:

For special entrance or exit control applications, the door delay timer can be delayed from starting after a granted code, RQE, or time zone actuation. The delay duration can be set in the range 1 - 8100 seconds. This is especially useful for implementing delayed egress control on emergency exit doors where local building codes permit such controls to be installed. It is also useful for bank vaults, where unlock delays after correct codes are sometimes required.

Set delay time to 0 (zero) for no delay. This is the default value.

Example:

START 280 * 5 * 1 #

Delay Egress From Door 1 When RQE is Actuated For 5 Seconds

Default:

0 seconds (no delay)
