[27] Downloading Access Code
This 4 digit code allows the panel to confirm that it is
communicating with a valid downloading computer. The
factory default code is [2525].
[28] Panel Identification Code
This 4 digit code allows the downloading computer to
confirm the identity of the control panel. The factory
default code is [2501]. Do not make any of these codes
the same.
[29] Communicator Format Options
This section sets the type of format which will be sent to
each of the two telephone numbers programmed in
sections [01] and [03]. Enter one HEX digit (i.e. when
entering HEX “A” press [✱][1][✱]) for each. The number
entered for each phone number is determined by the
requirements of the receiver being called. Enter the
format number for the “1st Telephone Number” first. It is
necessary to program the format number for each
telephone number even if the first phone number is the
only one being used. Options are as follows.
[0] Silent Knight/Ademco slow, 10 BPS (1400 Hz

[1] Sescoa, Franklin, DCI, Vertex, 20 BPS (2300 Hz

10 BPS and 20 BPS Formats
10 BPS is the standard slow format used on Silent Knight/
Ademco receivers.
DATA = 1900 HzKISSOFF = 1400 Hz SPEED = 10

20 BPS is the standard fast format used on DCI, Franklin,
Sescoa and Vertex receivers.
DATA = 1800 HzKISSOFF = 2300 Hz SPEED = 20

Radionics Format
For conventional 3/1 Radionics format the
communications mode should be set to either Radionics
rounds [B] or Radionics parity [C]. The extended version
of the Radionics format is normally used. The following
guidelines have been provided to help in configuring the
PC2550 for Radionics format.
1.The customer account code must be only 3 digits with
a zero making up the 4th digit (i.e. program 1230 for
account code 123).
2.The zone alarm reporting codes must all be single digit
numerical codes with no extended 2nd round being
sent. The zero in the 2nd digit of the reporting code
tells the PC2550 not to send an extended round.
3.All other non-alarm reporting codes must be set up to
send an extended 2nd round. The 1st digit of the
reporting code is used to identify the event while the
2nd or extended digit is used to associate the event
with a particular item. (i.e. A reporting code of E3
means restore zone 3. E for restore and 3 for zone 3.)
4.The following is a list of 1st digit identifiers that should
be used with the Radionics format.
Restorals “E” Example “E3”= Restore Zone 3
Openings “B” Example “B2”= Opening by User 2
Closings “C” Example “C4”= Closing by User 4
Troubles “F” Example “F5”= Trouble from Source 5
Misc “D” Example “D1”= Partial Closing
Sescoa Super Speed Format
The Sescoa Super Speed Format must be programmed
exactly as follows to function correctly.
1.The account code must be four decimal digits in length
and in the range of 0001 to 3374.
2.The reporting codes must be 2 digits in length and
programmed as follows.
Alarms Zones 1-8 (section [05]) A1 to A8
Restorals Zones 1-8 (section [06]) A1 to A8
All Opening Codes (sections [09] and [10]) BA
All Closing Codes (sections [07] and [08]) CA
Partial Closing (section [07]) C1
