For UL compliant installations, the Magellan console must  
be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an  
emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other  
equipment (telephones, answering machines, computer  
modems, etc.) already has the line in use. To do so, the  
Magellan console must be connected to a properly installed  
RJ31X jack that is electronically in series with and ahead of  
all other equipment attached to the same telephone line.  
Proper installation is depicted in the diagram below. If you  
have any questions concerning these instructions, you  
should consult your telephone company about installing  
the RJ31X jack and the Magellan console for you.  
Programmable Outputs (PGMs)  
Magellan comes equipped with two 50mA solid-state PGM  
outputs. When a specific event occurs in the system, a PGM can  
be programmed to activate lights, garage door openers, etc. See  
Programmable Outputs on page 30 for more information on  
programming PGMs.  
Connect Magellan’s PGM outputs as shown in Method 1 in  
Figure 5 on page 7. Since Magellan does not come with a power  
supply, an external power supply must be employed to power the  
circuit. The PGM outputs can be either Normally Open (N.O.) or  
Normally Closed (N.C.) as detailed in PGM Normal State on  
page 30.  
If the current draw on the PGMs is to exceed 50mA, we  
recommend using an external relay as shown in Method 2 in  
Figure 5 on page 7.  
Using Method 2, connect the device to the output terminal of the  
external relay that matches the normal state of Magellan’s PGM  
output. For example, if PGM1’s normal state is Normally Open  
(N.O.), connect the device to the  
relay.

When connecting via the LINE plug, if the telephone line is  
shared and it is busy (i.e. someone is talking on the  
telephone) the console will be unable to communicate with  
the Central Monitoring Station. It is recommended that the  
Direct Connect method (page 6) be used to connect the  
telephone line.

Magellan comes with two on-board hardwire zones. You can  
connect hardwire detection devices such as door contacts to  
Magellan’s zone terminals. Connect the detection devices as  
shown in Figure 6 on page 8. Please note the following:  
Section [095] options [1] and [2] must be enabled in order to  
use the two on-board hardwire zones. See Zones 15 and 16  
become Hardwire Zones on page 16 for more information.  
After connecting the detection devices, the zones must be  
defined. See Zone Programming on page 13 for more  
information.

Though any hardwire detection device can be connected to  
Magellan’s on-board hardwire zone inputs, it is recommended  
that only devices that do not require a power source (i.e.  
standard door contacts) be connected. Since Magellan has no  
power supply, an external power supply would have to be  
connected in order to power hardwire detection devices that do  
require a power source.

X10 Transmitter Connection  
Location and Mounting  
Magellan supports the X10 communication protocol. X10 is a  
communication protocol for remote control of electrical devices  
such as lamps and appliances. Communication is accomplished  
through standard household electrical wiring using X10  
transmitters and receivers. Configure Magellan, with the use of  
an X10 transmitter, to automate a home. Connect the X10  
transmitter as shown in Figure 9 on page 9.  
Location  
The locations of Magellan and its wireless transmitters affect the  
overall performance of the wireless system. To ensure the best  
signal reception, the following list of location criteria should be  
respected whenever possible:  
Select an installation site that is free of obstacles that reflect  
and absorb radio frequency (RF) signals, as well as  
interference that may distort signals. Avoid installation near  
or in the path of strong RF fields (i.e. neon lights,  
computers), and on or near metal objects, circuit breakers  
boxes, air conditioners and heater ducts since they may  
cause interference and reduce the console’s sensitivity.  
Select a site that is not susceptible to drastic temperature  
changes.  
Mount the Magellan console as central as possible to the  
proposed placement of the wireless transmitters.  
Mount the Magellan console as high as possible.  
Avoid installing Magellan in the basement as the range of  
the console is reduced when installed below ground level.  
However, if it is absolutely necessary to install the console in  
the basement, install the console as high as possible.  
Install the Magellan console on a wall allowing at least 5cm  
(2”) around the console to permit adequate ventilation and  
heat dissipation.  
Refer to the Magellan X10 Instructions on our website,  
configuring Magellan’s X10 feature.

User Codes  
A person must be assigned to a user code in order to have  
Maintenance Code  
access to Magellan. A user code defines the extent of a user’s  
access to the system and consists of a code # (PIN) and user  
options. Magellan supports one Installer code, one Maintenance  
code and up to 16 user codes (one System Master code and 15  
User codes).  
Section [182]; Default = 111111  
The Maintenance code is similar to the Installer code. It can be  
used to enter the console’s programming mode (see  
Programming Using the Built-in Keypad on page 11), which  
allows you to program all features, options and commands  
except for the console’s communication settings (sections [100]  
to [154]) as well as any user code. The Maintenance code can  
be 4 or 6 digits in length (see User Code Length on page 12)  
where each digit can be any value from 0 to 9.  
Installer Code  
Used to program all console settings  
except User codes and Remote Controls  
Maintenance Code  
Identical to the Installer code except that  
the code cannot program dialer options or  
perform a software reset.  
To change the Maintenance code:  
System Master Code  
User Code 001  
Provides access to the following Magellan  
user features: language, voice and utility  
reporting, delays and tones, zone labels,  
system tests. Arm and disarm using any  
method as well as program User Codes.  
1. Access the installer programming mode (page 11).  
2. Enter section [182].  
3. Enter a new [4- OR 6-DIGIT MAINTENANCE CODE].  
OR  
15 User Codes  
Can arm and disarm the system.

1. Press [MENU] + [4] + [INSTALLER CODE] + [8] + [NEW CODE].  
System Master Code  
User Code Length  
Section [090]: Option [1]  
With the System Master code a user can use any arming method  
and can program any user’s (from 1 to 16) Access Code. The  
System Master code can be 4 or 6 digits in length (see User  
Code Length on page 12), where each digit can be any digit from  
0 to 9. The System Master code cannot be changed by the  
installer or maintenance code, but it can be reset to default.  
Option [1] OFF = 6-digit user codes  
Option [1] ON = 4-digit user codes (default)  
All user codes can be set to lengths of either 4 or 6 digits. When  
the 4-digit option is selected, entering a 4-digit code will allow  
access. Using the 6-digit option, entering 6 digits is required to  
allow access.  
If the User Code Length is changed from 4 digits to 6 digits  
when user codes have already been programmed, the  
console will automatically add the last 2 digits by using the  
first 2 digits. For example, if the access code is 1234 and  
you switch to 6 digits, the code will become 123412. Be  
sure to verify the access codes after switching from 4-digit  
to 6-digit access codes. When switching from 6 digits to 4  
digits, the console will simply remove the final 2 digits of  
the access code. For example, 123456 will become 1234.  
Lock System Master Code  
Section [090]: Option [3]  
Option [3] OFF =System Master code unlocked (default)  
Option [3] ON =System Master code locked  
With section [090] option [3] enabled, the System Master code  
can only be changed or deleted through WinLoad or a power  
down reset.  
Reset System Master Code  
Section [200]  
Installer Code  
Section [181]; Default = 000000  
Enter section [200] to reset the System Master code to default  
(1234/123456).  
The Installer code is used to enter the console's programming  
mode (see Programming Using the Built-in Keypad on page 11),  
which allows you to program all the features, options and  
commands of the Magellan console. The Installer code can be 4-  
or 6-digits in length (see User Code Length on page 12) where  
each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. The Installer code  
cannot be used to program any user code.  
Make sure that the Lock System Master Code feature (section  
[090] option [3]) is disabled.  
Duress Code  
Section [090]: Option [4]  
Option [4] OFF = Duress code disabled (default)  
Option [4] ON = User code 016 becomes a duress code  
To change the Installer code:  
1. Access the installer programming mode (page 11).  
2. Enter section [181].  
3. Enter a new [4- OR 6-DIGIT INSTALLER CODE].  
With this feature enabled, user code 016 becomes a Duress  
code. When forced to arm or disarm their system, users can  
enter a Duress code (user code 016) to arm or disarm the system  
which can immediately transmit a silent alert to the Central  
Station, transmitting the duress report code programmed in  
section [140] (page 25).

Zone Programming  
Magellan supports up to 16 wireless zones where each zone can  
Zone Definitions  
be configured with a different zone definition and option. Each  
zone can also have a voice label recorded for it. Magellan’s  
zones can be programmed using section programming or  
through the Installer menu.  
Sections [001] to [016] represent zones 1 through 16  
respectively, where the first three digits in each of these sections  
represents the zone's definition. To disable a zone, enter 000  
and then press the [#] key. There are 15 available Zone  
Definitions, which are described as follows:  
See Quick Setup on page 4 for more information on zone  
programming using the Installer menu.  
Entry Delay 1  
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 001  
Zone Programming Overview  
When the system is armed and a zone defined with Entry Delay  
1 opens, the console will generate an alarm after the  
programmed Entry Delay 1 Timer elapses. This is to provide  
users with enough time to enter the protected area and disarm  
the system. Entry Delay zones are commonly used at the entry/  
exit points of the protected area (i.e. front/back door, garage,  
etc.). Using different Entry Delays (see Entry Delay 2 below) is  
useful when, for example, one entry point requires a longer delay  
than the other entry point.  
After assigning and setting up your wireless transmitters, define  
the associated zone's parameters. The zone parameters define  
the type of zone and how the control panel will react when an  
alarm condition occurs on that zone. These zone parameters are  
programmed into one section as detailed in Figure 16 on page  
13.

disarmed.  
Auto-zone Shutdown  
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Option [1]  
The Alarm Type options cannot be programmed for Fire  
zones. Fire zones are automatically programmed with an  
audible pulsed alarm. This cannot be altered.  
Option [1] OFF =Auto-zone Shutdown disabled  
Option [1] ON =Auto-zone Shutdown enabled (default)  
If, in a single armed period, the number of alarms generated by a  
zone with the Auto Zone Shutdown option enabled exceeds the  
number defined by the Auto Zone Shutdown Counter, the  
console will no longer generate an alarm for that zone. The Auto  
Zone Shutdown Counter resets every time the system is armed.

This feature reduces the possibility of false alarms. When a zone  
with the Intellizone option opens, the console does not  
immediately generate an alarm. First it triggers the Intellizone  
Delay Timer. If any of the following conditions occur during this  
period, the panel will generate an alarm:  
Enter the desired limit into section [067] to program the

This feature is commonly used with Entry Delay zones to reduce  
false alarms created by new users who may not disarm the  
system in time. This feature works as follows:  
Option [2] OFF = Wireless zone 16 remains unchanged (default)  
Option [2] ON = Wireless zone 16 uses the on-board hardwire  
zone input 2  
When an alarm condition occurs on a zone with this option  
enabled, the console enables the bell/siren output, but does  
not report the alarm to the central station until the end of the  
Alarm Before Transmission Delay.  
During this period, disarming the system disables the bell/  
siren output and cancels the report code transmission.  
The Magellan console comes with two on-board zone inputs,  
hardwire zone inputs 1 and 2. Section [095] options [1] and [2]  
allow you to convert zones 15 and 16 from wireless to hardwire  
by allowing you to connect hardwire detection devices (i.e. door  
contact) to zone inputs 1 and 2.  
With section [095] option [1] ON, zone 15 is connected to  
zone input 1.

Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay  
Section [078]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 20  
seconds  
When a panic alarm is generated through the use of a remote  
control, the system cannot be disarmed by remote control during  
the Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay.  
This feature only applies to Magellan’s on-board zone  
inputs. Section [095] options [1] and/or [2] (see Zones 15  
and 16 become Hardwire Zones on page 16) must be ON in  
order to use this feature.  
Enter the desired 3-digit delay value into section [078] to  
program the Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay.  
If the hardwire detection devices connected to Magellan’s zone  
inputs 1 and 2 have input terminals that require 1K9 end of line  
resistors, enable (ON) section [095] option [3]. For details on  
using EOL resistors, refer to page 8.  
Force Zones  
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Option [8]  
Option [8] OFF =Force zone disabled  
Option [8] ON =Selected zone is Force enabled (default)  
Any open Force zones at the time of arming will be considered  
deactivated by the console. If during this period a deactivated  
zone is closed, the console will revert that zone to active status.  
Consequently, the console will generate an alarm if the zone is  
breached.  
Fire zones cannot be programmed with the Force Zone  
option because the console will not bypass a Fire zone when  
the system is being Force armed.  
Stay Delay Zones  
Section [094]: Options [1]  
Option [1] OFF =Stay Delay zone disabled (default)  
Option [1] ON =Stay Delay zone enabled  
When a Stay Delay zone is armed using the Stay or Instant  
arming methods and the zone is triggered, an alarm will not  
generate until the programmed Stay Delay elapses. A zone  
defined as Stay Delay 1 follows the Entry Delay 1 Timer of its  
assigned partition. Likewise, a zone defined as Stay Delay 2

Strength  
Magellan supports the use of two wireless “doorbells”. By  
connecting a pushbutton to the Universal Transmitter inputs of a  
Magellan Wireless Door Contact (MG-DCT1), the MG-DCT1 will  
transmit a signal to Magellan whenever the pushbutton is  
pressed. Magellan will in turn become a “doorbell” and play a  
predetermined tone (see Wireless Doorbell Tones on page 17).  
Sections [021] to [036]: Zones 1-16; Wireless Transmitters 1-16  
Sections [058] and [059]: Wireless Doorbells 1 and 2  
Once wireless transmitters have been assigned to the Magellan  
console, the signal strength of each transmitter can be verified in  
sections [021] to [036] (zones 1 to 16 respectively) and sections  
[058] and [059] (wireless doorbells 1 and 2 respectively). Each  
section represents the signal strength viewer for the wireless  
transmitter assigned to the corresponding zone.  
Please refer to the appropriate Magellan Wireless Door  
Contact Instruction for information on the installation and  
configuration of the wireless door contact.  
For example, section [021] is the viewer for the wireless  
transmitter assigned to zone 1 and section [036] is the viewer for  
the wireless transmitter assigned to zone 16.  
To assign a wireless doorbell:  
1. Access the installer programming mode (page 11).  
2. Enter the [SECTION] corresponding to the desired doorbell.

that you wish the console to attempt to arm the system and/or  
send the Late to Close report code.  
Option [4] OFF = Switch to Stay arming disabled (default)  
Option [4] ON = Switch to Stay arming enabled  
If a user Regular arms the system, but does not exit through  
(open and close) an Entry Delay zone during the Exit Delay, the  
console can be programmed to switch from Regular arming to  
Stay arming.  
No Movement Auto-Arming  
Section [092]: Option [2]  
Option [2] OFF = No Movement Auto-arming disabled (default)  
Option [2] ON = No movement Auto-arming enabled  
Regular Arming Switches to Force Arming  
Section [092]: Option [5]  
Option [5] OFF = Regular arming switches to Force arming  
disabled  
If no movement occurs in a zone's protected area for the period  
specified by the No Movement Timer (see below), the console  
can automatically arm the system.  
Option [5] ON = Regular arming switches to Force arming  
enabled (default)  
The Auto-arming option (Auto-Arming Options on page 20)  
determines the system's arming method.  
Any open zones detected when the system is Auto-armed  
will be bypassed regardless of their definition (except 24hr.  
zones).  
Upon arming, the console will transmit the No Movement  
report code if programmed in section [124].  
Regardless of whether the system was successfully armed  
or not, the console will always transmit the No Movement  
report code if programmed in section [124].  
With this feature enabled, the console will always Force arm  
instead of Regular arm when a valid User code is entered. In  
installations where the User must always Force arm when  
leaving the protected area, this feature allows users to Force arm  
after entering their User code.  
Stay Arming Switches to Force Arming  
Section [092]: Option [6]  
Option [6] OFF = Stay arming switches to Force arming disabled  
(default)  
If No Movement Auto-arming is disabled, the console will  
still send the No Movement report code at the time specified  
by the No Movement Timer.  
Example: To arm the system whenever there is no movement for  
a period of 4 hours, enable section [092] option [2] (No  
Movement Auto-arming) and then in section [064], enter 016 (16  
x 15min. = 240min. = 4 hours).  
Option [6] ON = Stay arming switches to Force arming enabled  
With this feature enabled, the console will always Force arm and  
Stay arm when a valid User code is entered even if there are  
perimeter zones open.  
No Movement Timer  
Section [064]: 001 to 255 x 15 minutes; 000 = Disabled; Default  
= 000  
Timed Auto-Arming  
Section [092]: Option [1]  
Option [1] OFF = Timed Auto-arming disabled (default)  
Option [1] ON = Timed Auto-arming enabled  
Program the interval of time without movement you wish the  
console to wait before arming and/or sending the No Movement  
report code. If No Movement Auto-arming is disabled, the  
console can still send the No Movement report code when no  
movement has been detected for the period specified by the No  
Movement Timer.  
The Magellan system can be programmed to arm every day at  
the time specified by the Auto-arm Timer (see Auto-arm Timer  
on page 20). The following also apply:  
The Auto-arming options (Auto-Arming Options on page 20)  
determine the arming method.  
Any open zones detected when the system is Auto-armed  
will be bypassed regardless of their definition (except 24hr.  
zones).  
Auto-Arming Options  
Section [092]: Option [3]  
Option [3] OFF = Auto-arm system using Regular arm (default)  
Option [3] ON = Auto-arm system using Stay  
The console will enter a 60-second Exit Delay period before  
arming the system. At this point, Auto-arming can be  
cancelled by entering a valid access code.  
Once the system has successfully armed, the console can  
transmit the Timed Auto-Arming report code programmed in  
section [124].

One-Touch Arming  
Section [092]: Options [7] and [8]  
Follow Zone Switches to Entry Delay 2  
Section [093]: Option [7]  
Option [7] OFF = One-touch Regular/Force arming disabled  
Option [7] ON = One-touch Regular/Force arming enabled  
(default)  
Option [7] OFF = Follow zone triggers an alarm (default)  
Option [7] ON = Follow zone follows Entry delay 2 when  
opened  
Option [8] OFF = One-touch Stay arming disabled  
Option [8] ON = One-touch Stay arming enabled (default)  
When option [7] is enabled (ON) and an Entry Delay 1 zone is  
bypassed, an armed Follow zone that opens without an entry  
delay being triggered will switch to the entry delay 2 timer.  
The One-touch arming features allow users to arm the system  
without having to enter any access codes. To arm the system,  
press and hold the appropriate key for approximately 2 seconds.  
Example: Zone 1 is an Entry Delay zone and zone 2 is a Follow  
zone protecting the area where the keypad is installed. The  
system is armed but zone 1 is bypassed. With option [7]  
enabled, zone 2 will switch to and wait for the entry delay 2 timer  
to elapse before triggering an alarm.  
Exit Delay  
Section [062]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = disabled; Default = 60  
seconds  
Closing Delinquency Timer  
The exit delay determines the amount of time a user has to leave  
the protected area before Magellan arms the system. The exit  
delay applies to all zones (except 24Hr zones) in the system.  
Program the exit delay from 001 to 255 seconds.  
Section [080]: 001 to 255 days; 000 = Disabled; Default = 000  
The Magellan console will verify when the system was last  
armed at midnight of every day. If the last time the system was  
armed is greater than the programmed Closing Delinquency  
timer, the console will transmit a Closing Delinquency report  
code (page 25) to the central monitoring station.

the Closing Delinquency timer. Enter 000 to disable the timer.  
Option [3] OFF = Bell squawk disabled  
Option [3] ON = Bell squawk enabled (default)  
When option [3] is enabled (ON), the siren will squawk once  
upon arming with a remote control and twice upon disarming with  
a remote control.  
No Exit Delay when Arming with Remote  
Control  
Section [093]: Option [4]  
Option [4] OFF = Provides exit delay when arming with remote  
control (default)  
Option [4] ON = No exit delay when arming with remote control  
When option [4] is enabled (ON), the console cancels the Exit  
Delay (arms instantly) when the system is armed with a remote  
control. When disabled, the Exit Delay timer will start when the  
system is armed with a remote control.  
Exit Delay Termination  
Section [093]: Option [6]  
Option [6] OFF = Exit delay termination feature disabled  
Option [6] ON = Exit delay termination feature enabled (default)  
When option [6] is enabled (ON), the console will reduce the exit  
delay to 10 seconds when an Entry Delay zone (see Exit Delay  
on page 21) is opened and closed during the exit delay.  
Example: 15 seconds into a 45 second exit delay, an Entry Delay  
zone opens and closes. The remaining 30 seconds is reduced to  
10 seconds.

digits from 1 to F. Each section from [120] to [156] represents a  
set of up to four specific events and each of these events can be  
programmed with a separate 1- or 2-digit report code.  
A report code can be programmed for each of the 16 User  
Codes. Whenever an access code is used to disarm the system  
or an alarm, the Magellan console can send the appropriate  
report code to the central station, identifying which user  
disarmed the system.  
Only the Ademco Slow, Silent Knight, and Sescoa formats  
support 1-digit report codes. To program a 1-digit report  
code, press the [0] key followed by the desired hexadecimal  
digit or vice versa.  
The Disarming and the Special Disarming report codes can be  
transmitted every time the system is disarmed or only when the  
system is disarmed after an alarm (see Disarming Reporting  
Options on page 29).  
When a specific event occurs, the console will attempt to  
transmit the programmed report code to the central station. The  
method of report code transmission is defined by the Reporting  
Formats (see page 27) and the Event Call Direction (see  
page 27). These two items define how and where the report  
codes are transmitted. If you are using the Ademco Contact ID  
format, sections [120] to [156] do not have to be programmed.  
For more information, refer to Reporting Formats (see page 27).  
The following sub-sections provide a brief description of the  
events that the Magellan console can report.  
Special Disarming Report Codes  
Section [130]  
Whenever using one of the special disarming features, the  
Magellan console can send the report code to the central station,  
identifying how the system was disarmed.  
Cancel Auto-arm: The system is disarmed during the Timed  
Auto-arm's 60-second Exit Delay (see page 20). Only reports if  
Disarming Reporting Options (see page 29) are set to always

The Magellan console will use the Voice Message telephone  
numbers (which are programmed in the Installer menu. Refer to  
the Magellan Quick Setup Guide for more information) to play a  
pre-recorded message to an external telephone or cellular  
telephone. Please note the following when programming and  
using this feature:  
Add a 4-second pause to the  
telephone number. Press the key and  
a “P” will be inserted into the  
telephone number  
Center [ACTION] (pause) key  
The console will only dial a Voice Message telephone  
number when the system is in alarm. The console begins  
with the first programmed Voice Message telephone  
number.  
Central Station Telephone Numbers (CSTNs)  
Section [111] = Central Station Telephone Number 1  
Section [112] = Central Station Telephone Number 2  
The Magellan console uses the CSTNs (Central Station  
Telephone Numbers) programmed in sections [111] and/or [112]  
to connect and communicate with the central monitoring station.  
The following situations also apply:  
When the call is connected, the console will play the pre-  
recorded message and the zone labels of all the zones that  
are in alarm.  
The person at the other end of the telephone must  
acknowledge the call by pressing the [#] key on their  
telephone.  
The console will repeat the message a programmed amount  
of times (see Voice Message Repetitions on page 26) if no  
acknowledgement is immediately received.  
If no acknowledgement is received before the number of  
repetitions has elapsed, the console will then call the next  
programmed Voice Message telephone number and repeat  
the process.  
After calling the last programmed Voice Message telephone  
number without an acknowledgement, the console will once  
again call the first Voice Message telephone number and  
repeat the process a maximum of three times.  
If no acknowledgement is received after the third time, the  
console will generate a Fail to Comm. event and trouble.  
If after eight attempts of calling one central station telephone  
number have failed, the console will then dial the backup  
telephone number (if section [099] option [1] is enabled. See  
CSTN 2 as Backup Number on page 26).  
If the Alternate Dial option (page 28) is enabled, the console  
will dial the programmed backup telephone number after  
every failed attempt (if section [099] option [1] is enabled.  
See CSTN 2 as Backup Number on page 26).  
If no backup telephone number is programmed, the console  
will never report to the backup telephone number.  
For more information on how these telephone numbers are  
used, please refer to Event Call Direction on page 27 and  
Reporting Formats on page 27. Also refer to Delay Between  
Dialing Attempts on page 28.

The events are divided into five groups (see above) where each  
event group can be programmed to dial up to three telephone  
numbers (CSTN 1 & 2 and the Pager telephone number) with  
one as a possible backup (CSTN 2. See CSTN 2 as Backup  
Number on page 26).  
UL Note: The installer is required to verify the complete  
compatibility of the DAC Receiver and formats at least  
once per year.  
When a reportable event occurs in the system, the Magellan  
console will begin dialing the numbers sequentially starting  
from CSTN 1 (if enabled), skipping any disabled numbers  
and stopping once all selected telephone numbers have  
been called.  
Standard Pulse Formats  
The Magellan console can use the Ademco slow, Silent Knight  
and SESCOA standard pulse reporting formats (see Table 9 on  
page 27).  
If after eight attempts of trying to call the central monitoring  
station have failed, the console will then dial the selected  
backup telephone number (if enabled. See CSTN 2 as  
Backup Number on page 26).  
If the Alternate Dial option (see page 28) is enabled, the  
console will dial the programmed backup telephone number  
(if enabled. See CSTN 2 as Backup Number on page 26)  
after every failed attempt.  
Ademco Contact ID  
Ademco Contact ID is a fast communicator format that uses tone  
reporting instead of pulse reporting. This communicator format  
also uses a pre-defined list of industry standard messages and  
report codes that will suit most of your basic installation needs.  
To manually program the report codes, use the 2-digit  
hexadecimal values from the Contact ID Report Codes List  
in the Magellan Programming Guide.  
If no backup telephone number is programmed or section  
[099] option [1] is disabled (OFF. See page 28), the console  
will never report to the backup telephone number.  
Enter 00 to disable reporting or FF to use the default report  
code from the Automatic Report Code List in the  
Programming Guide.  
For more information, please refer to Central Station  
Telephone Numbers (CSTNs) on page 26, Alternate Dial

returns to tone/DTMF dialing and will once again switch to pulse  
dialing on the fifth attempt.  
Delay Between Dialing Attempts  
Section [076]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = disabled; Default = 20  
seconds  
This delay determines the amount of time the Magellan console  
will wait between each dialing attempt.  
Telephone Line Monitoring (TLM)  
Section [098]: Options [1] and [2]  
Alternate Dial Option  
When enabled, the system verifies the existence of a telephone  
line once every second. A line test failure occurs when the TLM  
detects less than 3 volts for the period defined by the TLM Fail  
Timer (page 28). If the line test fails, the Magellan console  
generates one or more conditions as defined by the TLM settings  
below. These will be restored when the console detects the  
telephone line again.  
Section [098]: Option [5]  
Option [5] OFF = Alternate Dial Disabled (default)  
Option [5] ON = Alternate Dial Enabled  
With option [5] OFF, the Magellan console will dial the  
programmed backup telephone number CSTN 2 (See CSTN 2

state (i.e. a normally open PGM will close) when a specific event  
has occurred in the system. For example, a PGM can be used to  
activate bells or strobe lights, open/close garage doors and  
much more. When a PGM closes, the control panel supplies a  
ground to the PGM activating any device or relay connected to it.  
When a PGM opens, the circuit opens from ground, therefore,  
cutting power to any devices connected to it.

can program each PGM output to be normally open (N.O.) or  
normally closed (N.C.) by enabling or disabling options [7] and  
[8] in section [090].  
3. Enter the [SUB-GROUP #].  
The “AC Loss” PGM event (Event Group #28, Event Sub-group  
#01) will only occur after the Power Failure Report Delay  
elapses (see page 29).  
PGM X10 Option  
Section [091]: Options [7] (PGM1) and [8] (PGM2)  
Option [7] OFF = PGM1 used as programmable output (default)  
Option [7] ON = PGM1 used as X10 output 7  
For the Event List, see the PGM Table in the Magellan  
Programming Guide.  
Option [8] OFF = PGM2 used as programmable output (default)  
Option [8] ON = PGM2 used as X10 output 8  
PGM Deactivation Event  
Section [087] = PGM1  
Section [089] = PGM2  
With section [091] options [7] and [8] enabled (ON), PGMs 1 and  
2 will follow the ON/OFF state of X10 outputs 7 and 8. Therefore  
the PGMs will function as follows:  
After PGM activation (see PGM Activation Event on page 30),  
the PGM will return to its normal state (deactivate) when the  
programmed PGM Deactivation Event occurs. To program a  
Deactivation Event:  
When X10 output 7 is enabled, PGM1 will activate. When  
X10 output 7 is disabled, PGM1 will deactivate.  
When X10 output 8 is enabled, PGM2 will activate. When  
X10 output 8 is disabled, PGM2 will deactivate.  
1. Enter section that represents the desired PGM; PGM1 =  
[087], PGM2 = [089].  
2. Enter the [EVENT GROUP #].  
3. Enter the [SUB-GROUP #].  
When section [091] options [7] and [8] are enabled, the PGM  
outputs will disregard their PGM activation and deactivation  
events (sections [086] to [089]).  
A PGM can also be set to deactivate after a programmed period  
elapses (see PGM Delay on page 30). If using the PGM Delay,  
sections [087] and [089] can be used as a second PGM  
Activation Event.  
For the Event List, see the PGM Table in the Magellan  
Programming Guide.

WinLoad Software Settings  
Panel Answer Options  
PC Telephone Number  
Section [118]  
The following two options define how Magellan answers an  
incoming call from a computer using the WinLoad Installer  
Upload/Download Software.  
Magellan will dial the number programmed in section [118] when  
trying to initiate communication with a computer using WinLoad.  
You can enter any digit from 0 to 9 and any special keys or  
functions (see Table 8 on page 26) up to a maximum of 32 digits.  
Answering Machine Override  
Section [074]: 010 to 255 seconds; 000 = disabled; Default =  
disabled  
Call Back Feature  
Section [098]: Option [4]  
When using WinLoad to communicate remotely with an  
installation site that uses an answering machine or service, the  
answering machine override must be programmed. Using  
WinLoad, you will call Magellan, hang up, then call back. If the  
installation site is called back within the delay programmed in  
section [074], the console will override the answering machine or  
service by picking-up the line after the first ring on the second  
call. You must wait at least 10 seconds before attempting the  
second call, otherwise, the console will think it is the same call.  
Option [4] OFF = Call Back feature disabled (default)  
Option [4] ON = Call Back feature enabled  
The Call Back feature provides additional security. When section  
[098] option [4] in ON and a computer using WinLoad attempts to  
communicate with Magellan, the console hangs up and calls the  
computer back to re-verify identification codes and re-establish  
communication. When Magellan hangs up, WinLoad  
automatically goes into Wait for Call Mode, ready to answer  
when the console calls back. The PC Telephone number must  
be programmed (see PC Telephone Number on page 33).  
For details on how to use WinLoad, refer to the WinLoad  
On-line Help.  
Example: A security installation is using an answering machine  
set to answer after three rings. If section [074] has been  
programmed with 040 (40 seconds) and the second call is made  
within 40 seconds, Magellan will pick up the line on the first ring.  
If it takes more than 40 seconds, the console will not answer on  
the first ring and the answering machine will answer after three  
rings.  
Number of Rings  
Section [072]: 001 to 015 rings; 000 = disabled; Default = 008  
This value represents the number of rings Magellan will wait  
before picking-up the line. If the line is not answered after the  
number of programmed rings, the console will answer the call.  
You must wait at least 10 seconds before attempting the second  
call or Magellan will think it is the same call.  
Panel Identifier  
Section [108]: 4-digit Hexa-decimal number from 0000 to FFFF  
This 4-digit code identifies the console to WinLoad before  
initiating communication. Magellan will verify that the Panel  
Identifier in the WinLoad software is the same as the code  
programmed in section [108]. If the codes do not match, the  
console will not establish communication. Therefore, be sure to  
program the same panel identifier code into both Magellan and  
WinLoad.  
PC Password  
Section [109]: 4-digit Hexa-decimal number from 0000 to FFFF  
This 4-digit password identifies the PC to Magellan before  
establishing communication. Program the same PC password  
into both the console and WinLoad. If the passwords do not  
match, WinLoad will not establish communication.
