INTRODUCTION
The Galaxy 16 and 16 plus control panels are designed to the highest specifications and requirements using the most advanced software and hardware technology.
The Galaxy 16 and 16 plus are designed to satisfy the requirements of domestic and smaller commercial installations, yet are flexible enough to provide ease of use and operational versatility.
This Users Guide contains the information required to operate the system.
The installation engineer will program and commission the system to meet your requirements. The system is simple to operate but users are advised to read this guide carefully before using the system and retain it in a safe place for future reference.

SETTING AND UNSETTING THE SYSTEM
Setting the System
Before Setting the System
Before the system is Set ensure that:
All doors and windows are secured.
All areas protected by movement detectors are free from obstructions and any animals are excluded from the areas to be protected.
Full Setting the System
Enter your User Code and press the A key:
If all the system zones are closed when the setting routine is initiated the keypad sounders will emit a continuous tone and the keypad displays the Exit Time countdown blocks.
If any zones are open (for example: protected doors or windows; or if someone activates a movement detector when the setting process is started) then the keypad sounders pulse rapidly and the keypad displays which zones are open. Closing the open zones allows the setting routine to restart.
Leave the building using the agreed Exit Route. Close and lock the Final Exit
Door and then, if fitted, operate the Exit Terminator; the horn outputs and the keypad buzzers become silent for four seconds, the countdown blocks all clear and the keypad buzzers emit two long tones to confirm that the system is Set. On the keypad the message
SYSTEM IS SET
appears before the display goes blank.
The setting routine can be aborted, before the system sets, by pressing the esc key on the keypad used to initiate the setting routine.
Part Setting the System
Your alarm system can be Part Set using the B key. To Part Set the system enter your User Code then press the B key. The keypad then displays the Set/
Unset status of those parts assigned to your code, see Figure 2 Part Setting
Options.
SELECT P1=OFF
P3
T
ON
Part Set options for user code with Parts 1 and 3 assigned.
Part 1 is unset, Part 3 set.
Figure 2: Part Setting Options.
3
The Parts marked ON are Set, those marked OFF are Unset. To alter the set/unset status of a Part press the number corresponding to that part, that is, pressing the 1 key toggles the set status of Part 1 between set/unset.
The equals sign denotes that what is displayed beside the Part number is the current status of the Part, that is, P1=ON denotes that Part 1 is currently set.
Pressing the 1 key will cause the display to read
P1TOFF
, this means that
Part 1 is now provisionally programmed as Unset.
The actual set status of the part will not be altered until the ent key is pressed to accept the programming.
Once the ent key has been pressed leave the building using the agreed exit route. Close and lock the final exit door and then operate the exit terminator; the horn outputs and the keypad buzzers become silent for four seconds, the countdown blocks on the keypad display all clear and the keypad buzzers emit two long tones to confirm that the system is set. On the keypad the message
SYSTEM IS SET
appears before the display goes blank.
The setting routine can be aborted, before the system sets, by pressing the esc key on the keypad used to initiate the setting routine.
Note: If the Silent Part Set facility has been enabled only the keypad display indicates the setting status, that is, no audible tones are emitted.
Unsetting the System
Normal Entry
The system begins the unsetting routine whenever a Final door opens or an
Exit/Entry zone is activated. The keypad buzzers pulse slowly indicating that the Entry Time countdown has started.
To unset the system, go directly to the keypad using the agreed entry route, enter your code and press the ent key.
Slow Entry
The keypad sounder begins to pulse rapidly after 75% of the entry time has expired to indicate that time is running short. If the entry time expires before a valid user code is entered, a full alarm occurs.
Straying From The Entry Route
If, during the entry routine, you stray from the agreed entry route and activate a zone in a protected area an audible alarm occurs.
4
Alarm Abort
Note: If the system is programmed for Alarm Abort a period of 90 seconds after expiry of the Entry Time is provided to enable the user to cancel an alarm caused by exceeding the Entry Time or deviating from the entry route.
If the 90 second Alarm Abort time is exceeded then a full alarm may result in the Police being called to the premises and the system requiring an Engineer Reset.
The installation engineer will explain the operation of the Alarm Abort function where necessary.
Cancelling Alarms
To cancel an alarm enter your user code. The keypad displays the zones that have been activated during the alarm. Press the esc key to return to the normal display.
Certain types of alarms, once cancelled, require a code authorised with the appropriate reset authorisation to be entered. The system prompts for a valid reset code by displaying
INTRUDER RESET REQUIRED
,
PA RESET RE-
QUIRED
or
ENGINEER RESET REQUIRED
on the keypad.
Engineer Reset
Certain types of alarm require an engineer to visit the site and, after investigation, reset the system.
5
USER MENU
For access to the menu options enter your user code then press the ent key.
The keypad then displays the menu options available to the user.
