• Troubleshoot system voltages in real-time or as a 'snapshot'
• Current system status in real-time continuous or as a 'snapshot'
Uploading is possible at any time provided the following conditions are true:
 The communicator may be in any mode of operation. Uploading is not possible if the
communicator is active or while testing the phone lines while in Troubleshoot Mode.
 There cannot be any active communications ongoing with a Central Station receiver.
 All active events must be successfully 'kissed-off' by the Central Station(s). The
communicator must be in a standby state with no new information waiting to be transmitted
to a Central Station.
Once an incoming call is accepted/answered by the communicator, the 411UDAC will:
1. Establish basic modem connection
2. Verify secret code
3. Verify callback vs. no callback request from the Service Terminal. If callback is requested,
perform steps 4 through 10; if no callback is requested, perform steps 9 and 10 only
4. Verify product type
5. Identify the Service Terminal location
6. Hang-up/disconnect call
7. Call the Central Station(s) and transmit a request for upload/download message (if
programmed to do so). If this message is accepted, the communicator will proceed to the next
step
8. Return call to the Service Terminal
9. Verify secret code
10. Verify product type
11. Begin downloading
12. Upon completion of download, call the Central Station(s) back and report a successful
download or failed upload/download status (if programmed to do so).
Unlike most competitive products, during the uploading process, the 411UDAC fire protection
remains active. Should a system trouble or alarm condition occur, the communicator immediately
terminates uploading and processes the trouble or alarm locally and transmits the information to
the Central Station(s).
5.4 Simultaneous Data Transfers
Uploading and downloading may take place on a single telephone call. Control and selection of the
data transaction is coordinated at the Service Terminal. This eliminates multiple phone calls,
allows instant verification of downloaded data files and simplifies the overall process.
