I need the CONTACT ID protocol used
by ADEMCO system. I am working to
communicate one VISTA 50 system with
an external automaton (PLC). I should
implement the DTMF CONTACt ID
protocol on my PLC.
Thank you for your collaboration
OK, here goes:
Contact ID Message Block
Message Blocks -
A Message Block is sent by the panel or dact
for each message in the transmitter's message
queue.
Placement -
The first message block is sent beginning 250
msec. after the end of either the Handshake
Tone sequence or after a Kissoff
(Acknowledgement) tone. The delay is timed
from the end of the tone.
Message Composition -
ACCT MT QXYZ GG CCC
ACCT = 4 Digit Account number (0-9, B-F)
MT = Message Type. This 2-digit sequence is
used to identify the Contact ID message to
the receiver.
Q = Event qualifier, which gives specific
event information:
1 = New Event or Opening
3 = New Restore or Closing
6 = Previously reported condition still present
XYZ = Event code (3 Hex digits 0-9,B-F)
GG = Group or Partition number (2 Hex digits
0-9, B-F).
CCC = Zone number (Event reports) or User
# (Open / Close reports) (3 Hex digits 0-9,B-F).
S = 1 Digit Hex checksum calculated such that
(Sum of all message digits + S) MOD 15 = 0
