Transmitted Messages (SIA & Contact-ID)

General Message Format

Messages are transmitted to the monitoring station using either the "SIA Level II" or "Contact ID" format.
NOTICE:

The message formats described here are NOT to be confused with messages provided by the

receiver software. (Those messages will typically include the information discussed here, along with date/time
information and proprietary formatting.)

SIA Level II Format

Messages that reference an area:

N riSSSS / XX PPP

System Messages (no area reference):

N XX PPP

Where:

Sample Messages

Meaning

N

This indicates a "new event".

Ri

This indicates "area" (i.e., the next number is
an area reference).

N ri2 / BA 227

Burg. alarm associated with
area 2; door 27. (Also see
"Door Activity", to follow.)

SSSS

This is the area number/ID.

XX

This is a two-character SIA alarm code (refer to
the SIA message list).

N ri4 / BA 73

Burg. alarm associated with
area 4; input-point 73.

PPP

This is the number/ID for the input point or user
associated with the event, or optional
information (depending on the type of event).

N UX2

Digital dialer communications
test signal.

When creating an account message template: Enter only the two-digit SIA code.
(The "N" is processed automatically by the receiver.)

Account Number Information: This is sent in another message-type, and is automatically understood by the receiver software.

User IDs 998 and Higher: The SIA format supports unique user numbers up to 997 only (998 and above will appear as "998").
User ID "999" is considered to be the "automatic user"--which means an event that was triggered by the system.

or the user associated with the event.

1234 3301 01 000

When creating an account message template: Enter only the three-digit CID code.

User IDs 998 and Higher: The CID format supports unique user numbers up to 997 only (998 and above will appear as "998").
User ID "999" is considered to be the "automatic user"--which means an event that was triggered by the system.

Door Activity

Access-controlled doors report burglar or tamper alarms as regular access door input numbers 501 through 532 for
xL

systems when an area is armed. The leading digit “5” defines the activity as a burglary type alarm. The secondary

two digits identify the door ID/numbers 1 to 32.

Door Forced

alarms report as “burgs” but are identified by the leading digit: 3. If "door forced" is configured, it reports

as "3" when the area is disarmed. It will report as a "5" followed by a "3" ("door forced" if configured) when an area is
armed. 301 to 332 are door-forced alarms for doors: 1 - 32.

Door Held Open

alarms report as “burgs” but are identified by the leading digit: 4. If "door held open" is configured, it

reports as "4" when the area is disarmed. Like "door forced", it is possible to receive a "5" (burg) followed by a "4"
("door held", if configured) when an area is armed. 401 to 432 are door held open alarms for doors: 1 - 32.
However, when an area is armed, it is not possible to receive a 5, 3 and a 4. If a door is forced, a 5 and a 3 are
received. If a door is opened by an access device and held open, a 5 and a 4 are received. Similarly, restores for
these alarms report as “burg restore” for door point alarms: 501 - 532, door forced alarms: 301 - 332 and door held
open alarms 401 - 432.
