If Contact ID Sends Automatic Reporting Codes is selected, the system will
automatically generate a reporting code for each event. These identifiers are listed
in Appendix A. If the Automatic Contact ID option is not selected, reporting codes
must be programmed. The 2-digit entry determines the type of alarm. The system
will automatically generate all other information, including the zone number.
NOTE:If the Automatic Contact ID option is selected, the system will auto-
matically generate all zone and access code numbers, eliminating the need
to program these items.
NOTE:Regardless of the zone type programmed, the system will report all
zones as burglary zones when Automatic Contact ID is selected. If you need to
report other zone types, you must use Programmed Contact ID reporting codes.
NOTE: The zone number for Zone Low Battery and Zone Fault events will
not be identified when Programmed Contact ID is used.
If the Contact ID uses Automatic Reporting Codes option is enabled, the sys-
tem will operate as follows:
1. If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00], the system will not attempt
to call the central station.
2. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as anything from [01] to [FF],
the system will automatically generate the zone or access code number. See
Appendix A for a list of the codes which will be transmitted.
If the Contact ID uses Programmed Reporting Codes option is enabled, the
system will operate as follows:
1. If an event’s reporting code is programmed as [00] or [FF], the system will not
attempt to call central station.
2. If the reporting code for an event is programmed as anything from [01] to [FE],
the system will send the programmed reporting code.
Additional Notes on Contact ID
1. Account numbers must be four digits.
2. If the digit ‘0’ is in the account number substitute the HEX digit ‘A’ for the ‘0’.
3. All reporting codes must be two digits.
4. If the digit ‘0’ is in the reporting code substitute the HEX digit ‘A’ for the ‘0’.
5. To prevent the system from reporting an event program the reporting code for
the event as [00] or [FF].

SIA (Level 2)
SIA is a specialized format that will communicate information quickly using fre-
quency shift keying (FSK) rather than pulses. The SIA format will automatically gen-
erate the type of signal being transmitted, such as Burglary, Fire, Panic etc. The two
digit reporting code is used to identify the zone or access code number.
If the SIA format is selected the system can be programmed to automatically gener-
ate all zone and access code numbers eliminating the need to program these items.
