Support

Does the SEM support multiple partitions?
Yes. The SEM comes with multiple partition support, including the ability to arm and disarm partitions remotely.
Is the SEM compatible with DLS?
DLS is not supported. The SEM cannot be used as a DLS communicator. DLS panel programming changes via another communication pathway (PC Link, POTS, etc.) is not captured by the SEM until the system is power cycled.
Do I need to change any programming settings for the SEM to work?
No. There aren’t any required settings that need to be changed. However, we do recommend changing the following settings if the system was previously communicating over the phone line.

  • Disable Telco Line Monitoring (section 015, option 7)
  • Remove the phone numbers (section 301-303)
  • Disable Phone Line Failure (section 382 option 5)
Does the SEM support Cross Zones?
No. The SEM does not support the Cross Zone attribute. The SEM does not report the Cross Zone event to the monitoring station.
