1.2: Zones
The Penta control panel includes four security zones plus one tamper zone which can be
defined for use with an ON/OFF keyswitch. The four security zones are fully pro-
grammable and supervised by end of line resistors. The Penta offers five zone response
types for customized programming to suit a wide range of installations. Each zone can be
programmed to activate a siren/bell when tripped or to generate a silent alarm where only
a message is sent to the central station. The following is a summary of the operational
characteristics for each zone response type:
Perimeter Zone
Perimeter zones instantly generate an alarm when opened.
Suggested Use: Magnetic contacts or detectors protecting the doors and windows which
are never used to enter the premises.
Perimeter Zone With Delay
This zone type starts the entry delay when opened, allowing the user time to disarm the
system.
Suggested Use: Magnetic contacts or detectors protecting the doors commonly used to
enter or leave the premises.
Conditional Zone
If a perimeter zone with delay is opened first, conditional zones do not generate an alarm
when opened during the entry delay. If a conditional zone is opened first, an alarm is
generated instantly.
Suggested Use: Detectors protecting the area in which a keypad has been installed or the
area crossed in order to reach the keypad.
Interior Zone
Interior zones are automatically bypassed when the system is armed using the ‘Stay’
command Q, 9.
Suggested Use: Detectors protecting the interior areas in which the user requires
unrestricted movement when ‘Stay’ arming. For example bedrooms, bathrooms and
interior offices.
24hr Zone
24hr zones always generate an alarm when opened whether the system is armed or
disarmed.
Suggested Use: Panic buttons, glassbreak detectors and areas which require 24 hour
protection.

Central Station Communication
The Penta uses a standard 20pps 4/2 no parity protocol for central station
communication. All events can be programmed to transmit a two digit event code
message to the central station. These codes are usually assigned by the central station -
consult the central station operator for a listing of the different event codes.
Follow-me
The ‘Follow-me’ feature informs the user that an event has occurred by dialing the user’s
telephone number and sounding two beeps. After hearing the two beeps, pressing 3, 6, 9
or # on the phone sounds a number of tones to indicate exactly which type of alarm has
occurred. The number of tones indicates the type of alarm generated.
1 tone = Alarm from zone 1 1 long = F key alarm
2 tones = Alarm from zone 2 tone
3 tones = Alarm from zone 3 2 long = E or P key alarms, zone
4 tones = Alarm from zone 4 tones or keypad tamper
After the alarm tones have been sounded, pressing 3, 6, 9 or # on the phone either
causes the panel to hang up or, if additional alarms have occurred, sound another set of
alarm tones. Note: Electronics Line recommends using a telephone unit with
Continuous DTMF mode. If only Burst mode is available it may be necessary to
press more than once. If using the Follow-me feature, program the relevant event
codes (addresses 11 – 18) with any value greater than 00.

3.4: Arming/Disarming
The following section explains the various arming and disarming methods.
Arming
When all zones are secured the system can be armed normally. Arming the system
transmits a message to the central station identifying which user performed the
operation.
To arm the system:
1. Check that all zones are closed; the Ready LED lights up to indicate that the
system is ready to be armed.
2. Enter a valid user code; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
Forced Arming
Forced arming enables the user to arm the system with open zones. Electronics Line
recommends waiting until all of the zones are secured and the system can be armed
normally. Note: If zones are still not secured after the exit delay has ended, an
alarm will be generated.
To force arm the system:
1. Press Q, 8.
2. Enter a valid user code; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
Quick Arming
This feature allows the Penta to be armed without a valid user code. Quick arming the
system transmits an “Armed by User 1” message to the central station.
To “Quick” arm the system:
1. Check that all zones are closed; the Ready LED lights up to indicate that the
system is ready to be armed.
2. Press Q, 0; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
13
Stay Arming
This feature only arms perimeter zones. This allows the user to stay within the
protected area while the system is armed.
To “Stay” arm the system:
1. Check that all zones are closed apart from the interior zones; the Ready LED lights
up to indicate that the system is ready to be armed.
2. Press Q, 9.
3. Enter a valid user code; the keypad beeps until the end of the exit delay.
Immediate Arming
The system can be operated without an entry/exit delay. Pressing Q during the exit
delay or when the system is armed cancels both the exit and entry delay times.
Disarming
The Penta can be disarmed by entering a valid user code during the entry delay. If an
error is made entering the code, press ‘#’ and enter the code again. When the code is
accepted the Armed LED and the pulsed delay tone are turned off. If the correct code is
not entered by the end of the delay time, an alarm will be generated.
Keyswitch Arming/Disarming
The system can be armed and disarmed using an ON/OFF keyswitch. The keyswitch
has two operation modes.
1. Latching - closing the keyswitch arms the system, opening disarms the system.
2. Momentary - opening and closing the keyswitch either arms or disarms the system.
FIRE: Sounds the fire bell, sends the ‘Fire’ event code to the central
F station (address 17) and registers in the Emergency/Trouble event log.
P POLICE: Sends the ‘Police’ event code to the central station (address 16),
sounds the siren (if programmed at address 01) and registers in
the Emergency/Trouble event log.
14
3.7: User Codes
The Penta is capable of maintaining four user codes, a duress code and an installer
code. Each of these codes are four digits long. Of the four user codes, only User
Code 1 (default 1111) has authorization to modify other user codes and the duress
code. The installer’s code (default 1234) is the only user code which grants access to
the programming parameters and is programmable at address 61.
To program user codes 1-4:
1. Press Q, 5.
2. Enter User Code 1; the Armed and System LEDs flash and the zone LEDs indicate
the programming status of each user code as follows:
OFF: NOT PROGRAMMED
ON: PROGRAMMED
FLASHING: CURRENTLY BEING PROGRAMMED
3. Enter the number of the code to be changed (1-4); the requested zone LED flashes.
4. Enter the new user code; the LED stops flashing.
5. Enter the next code to be changed or press # to exit.
Note: If the new code is identical to an existing user code, an error tone will be
sounded and the new code will not be accepted.
To erase a user code:
1. Press Q, 5.
2. Enter User Code 1.
3. Enter the number of the code to be erased (1-4); the requested zone LED flashes.
4. Enter Q, Q, Q, Q; the LED stops flashing and the code is erased.
5. Enter the next code to be erased or press # to exit.
Note: Do not erase User Code 1! Erasing this code denies the user the ability to
program user codes. If User Code 1 is accidentally erased, reset the default
program as described in 2.6: Turning on the System.
Duress Code
In the event that the user is forced to disarm the system and/or cancel the bell, entering
the duress code will send a silent alarm to the central station.
To program the duress code:
1. Press Q, 5.

Conditional Zone A conditional zone does not generate an alarm if opened during the entry
delay.
D
Default Settings The factory programmed parameters designed to facilitate programming.
Delay The exit/entry delay times are programmed to allow the user time to arm
or disarm the system without generating an alarm.
Disarmed When the system is disarmed, only 24hr zones and distress keys are
capable of generating an alarm.
25
Distress Keys The three distress keys (F, E and P) generate different types of alarm
when pressed and held down for two seconds.
Duress Code Entering the duress code generates a silent alarm to indicate that the
user is being forced to disarm the system or cancel the bell.
E
Entry Delay See Delay
Event Code The two-digit code transmitted to the central station to indicate that an
event has occurred.
Event Log The two event logs record and display events the system has undergone
since the last arming.
Exit Delay See Delay
F
Follow-Me A method of monitoring the system without connecting to a central station
based monitoring service. In the event of an alarm, the panel dials the
follow-me number and sounds a number of tones via the telephone.
Forced Arming Arming before the system is ready. If zones are still open when the exit
delay has expired an alarm will be generated.
I
Immediate Arming Arming the system without an exit/entry delay.
Installer Code The code which grants access to programming mode.
Interior Zone A zone that is not armed during Stay arming
K
Keypad Trouble Condition brought about by improper definition of keypads or if a keypad
has been disconnected.
Keyswitch Peripheral device connected to the tamper zone for arming and disarming
the system by the turn of a key.
L
Latching One of the two keyswitch function modes. A latching keyswitch toggles
the system to arm or disarm by one turn of the key
(On or Off=Arm/Disarm).
Log See Event Log
Low Battery Condition brought about if the voltage supplied to the backup battery
deteriorates to approximately 10.5V or less.
M
Magnetic Contacts Peripheral device mounted on doors incorporating a magnet that closes a
circuit. Opening the door breaks the circuit and opens the zone to
generate an alarm.
Master Code The only user code with the ability to program other user codes.
Momentary One of the two keyswitch function modes. A momentary keyswitch
toggles the system to arm or disarm by turning the key on and off.
(On & Off=Arm or Disarm).
26
P
Perimeter Zone Perimeter zones are armed during both regular and Stay arming and can
be defined with or without an exit delay.
Periodic Test The periodic test event code is sent to the central station every 24 hours
to indicate that the system is functional.
PGM Output Programmable output for connecting additional system status indicators.
Primary The first telephone number dialed when an event occurs. Five attempts
Telephone Number are made to establish communication with the Primary telephone number
before dialimg the backup telephone number.
Q
Quick Arming Arming the system without the need for a valid user code.
R
Ready The state in which all zones are closed and the system is ready to be
armed.
Remote The software developed by Electronics Line used for programming the
Programmer system using a PC from a remote location or on-site.
Restore The restoral of a trouble condition to its normal state. For example, if AC
power is reconnected, an AC Loss Restore event code is sent to the
central station.
RP Abbreviation of Remote Programmer
RP Access Code The code that grants access to the remote programmer. The RP Access
Code prevents the system being sabotaged using unauthorized remote
programming.
S
Silent Alarm An alarm that does not activate the bell/siren when generated.
Stay Arming Arming the perimeter of the system while allowing free movement in the
interior zones.
T
Tamper Zone The fifth zone which can be connected to a tamper switch protecting the
control panel by generating an alarm when the metal housing is opened.
Alternately, the tamper zone can be defined for use with an On/Off
keyswitch.
Tone See Beep
U
Unbypass The restoral of a bypassed zone to its original state.
User Code A code that grants access to certain operational capabilities such as
arming and disarming the system.
Z
Zone The physical and logical connection of detection devices to the control
panel.
Zone Chime The tone sounded by a keypad on opening a perimeter zone when the
system is disarmed.

ELECTRONICS LINE (E. L.) LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES - LIMITED WARRANTY
ELECTRONICS LINE (E. L.) LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES (EL) warrants its products to be free from
manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for two years following the date of sale. EL will, within
said period, at its option, repair or replace any product failing to operate correctly without charge to the
original purchaser or user. In case of defect, contact the security professional who installed and maintains
your security system. In order to exercise the warranty, the product must be returned by the user or
purchaser, shipping costs prepaid and insured to EL. After repair or replacement, EL assumes the cost of
returning products under warranty. EL will not be responsible for any dismantling or reinstallation changes.
This warranty shall not apply to any equipment, or any part thereof, which has been repaired by others,
improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged, subjected to acts of God, or on which any
serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed.
There is no express or implied warranty of merchantability or warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. Any
action for breach of warranty, including but not limited to any implied warranty of merchantability, must be
brought within the six months following the end of the warranty period. In no case shall EL be liable to anyone
for any consequential or incidental damages for breach of this or any other warranty, express or implied, even
if the loss or damage is caused by the EL's own negligence or fault.
In no event shall EL be liable for an amount in excess of EL's original selling price of the product, for any loss
or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise arising out of any failure of the
product. CONSEQUENTLY, EL SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY
DAMAGE, OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. EL's
warranty, as hereinabove set forth, shall not be enlarged, diminished or affected by and no obligation or
liability shall arise or grow out of EL's rendering of technical advice or service in connection with Buyers order
of the goods furnished hereunder.
This warranty contains the entire warranty. Additionally, this warranty is in lieu of all other
obligations or liabilities on the part of EL. It is the sole warranty and any prior agreements or
representations, whether oral or written, are either merged herein or are expressly canceled. EL
neither assumes, nor authorizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to modify, to
change, or to assume for it, any other warranty or liability concerning its products.
EL RECOMMENDS THAT THE ENTIRE SYSTEM BE COMPLETELY TESTED WEEKLY.
Warning: Despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, any or all of the following: criminal
tampering, electrical or communications disruption, it is possible for the system to fail to perform as expected.
EL does not represent that the product/system may not be compromised or circumvented; or that the product
or system will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; nor that the
product or system will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. A properly installed and
maintained alarm may only reduce risk of burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise but it is not insurance or a
guarantee that these events will not occur. Therefore, the installer should in turn advise the consumer to take
any and all precautions for his or her safety including, but not limited to, fleeing the premises and calling
police or fire department, in order to mitigate the possibilities of harm and/or damage.
EL is not an insurer of either the property or safety of the user's family or employees, and limits its liability for
any loss or damage including incidental or consequential damages to EL’s original selling price of the product
regardless of the cause of such loss or damage. If the user wishes to protect itself to a greater extent, EL will,
at user's sole cost and expense, obtain an insurance policy to protect the user, supplemental to user's own
policy, at a premium to be determined by EL's insurer upon written notice from user by Certified Mail, Return
Receipt Requested, to EL's home office address, and upon payment of the annual premium cost by user.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or differentiate in their treatment of limitations of liability for
ordinary or gross negligence, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This Warranty
gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
