WARNING
While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed
protection against burglary, fire or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commer-
cial or domestic, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons.
Therefore, good installation practices, thorough testing and regular maintenance by the
installing company and frequent testing by the user are essential to ensure continuous
satisfactory operation of the system. It is recommended that the installation company offer
a maintenance program and instruct the user with the correct procedure for use and testing
of the system.

Introduction Introduction

The VERIFIER 24 is a microprocessor-based security control panel, which is based on well proven
technology, in both hardware and software. It is an 8 zone fully programmable analog multiplexing
control panel, expandable to 24 zones, with each zone fully monitored using dual end of line
resistors. It is the ideal solution for small to medium size commercial premises and prestigious
domestic properties.
Programming of the Verifier 24 is a simple process via the system remote keypad(s). This highly
sophisticated new keypad incorporates many impressive new features, such as its clear 16-
character supertwist backlit LCD display compensating for poorly lit areas. It offers extremely user
friendly Menu-driven software, reducing operator response time to a minimum. In addition it
incorporates a time saving ‘‘Quick key’’ function, enabling the user to select exactly what is
required without having to scroll through menu sequences.
The Verifier 24 is a sophisticated yet extremely user friendly multiplex control panel offering the
complete security solution.
The number of zones is expandable to 64 with the VERIFIER 64 system. The increased memory
capacity of the 64 also means many additional features, all of which are detailed in the manual.

About this Manual

This manual has been produced with a view to providing the installation engineer with any
technical information required for the installation and operation of the Verifier 24 control panel.
The manual also serves for the expanded Verifier 64 panel, which has the same functionality as the
24 with additional features. This document has been divided into the following sections:

l Chapter 1 - Basic System Set-Up. This chapter contains installation details for a basic 8-zone
(hardwired) system. Other topics covered are Safety/Installation guidelines and
Environmental considerations.

l Chapter 2 - System Expansion. This chapter explains how to expand a system up to 24

zones; System Types; Connection/Coding LEMs; Connection/Programming I/O Modules.

l Chapter 3 - Engineer Menu. Powering up the system, Engineer Menu, Text Entry & Word
Library Operation.

l Chapter 4 - User Menu. Setting and Unsetting Modes; Alert Accept; All User Functions.

l Chapter 5 - Zone Types & Outputs. An explanation of Zone Types/Attributes and Output
Types.

l Chapter 6 - Peripherals. Connection diagrams for connecting a Printer, DM1200, PC,

Eurocom and FileSaver.

l Appendix - Word Library; Sensor Attribute; System Defaults; Technical Specification.

i
General Features Introduction

l On-board zones - There are 8 on-board zone inputs provided, with a common terminal for
each zone pair. These inputs are dual End Of Line monitored loops, and use 1KOhm resistors
across the zone contacts.

l Multiplex Data Line Connection - A further 16 zones (56 on the Verifier 64) may be added to
the system by connecting Line Encoder Modules (LEMs), Input/Output modules or a
combination of both to the Multiplex Data Line.

l Remote Keypads - Up to 16 addressable Remote Keypad Displays may be connected to

the Multiplex Data Line.

l True Split System - The Verifier 24/64 boasts a TRUE two-way SPLIT system. This feature allows
each tenant the luxury of a completely independent system under the control of one
multiplex panel. True split implies that each tenant has their own RKD, access codes etc.
and is completely oblivious to the system functionality of the other split system. Either system
type may be assigned to a split, thus permitting various combinations such as Split 1 =
Commercial, Split 2 = Domestic ; Split 1 = Block, Split 2 = Commercial, etc. (see "System
Expansion").

l 16 Users - In addition to the Engineer and Master User (s), the system allows up to 16 general
users to be defined (32 users on the VERIFIER 64 ). Each user is identified by name, and can
have a flexible level of access.

l 250 Event Log - The system’s 250-event log (up to 500 on the VERIFIER 64) records each
event/action, user name, and is timed to the second.

l System guided walk test with report - "Force call" feature for simple remote tech. support.

l Bell & Auxiliary fuse monitoring - Low/missing battery monitoring - Mains fail and restore
indication.

l 2 x on-board fused bell/siren outputs - 4 x on-board open collector outputs for digital
communicator, etc.

The Verifier 24/64 offers 2 types of system operation - STANDARD (Commercial/Domestic) and
BLOCK system.

l Commercial/Domestic System - The standard system can be set for either Commercial or
Domestic mode. In Commercial mode the setting modes appear as PARTGUARD A,
PARTGUARD B and FULL SET. In Domestic mode they appear as HOME, NIGHT and FULL SET.
(see p.2-1 for an explanation).

l Block System - The Verifier can also be subdivided into a Block system. Block C is a common
area and will not arm until both Block 1 and 2 are fully armed. This is typically used in office
complexes but can have domestic applications as well (see "System Expansion"). Verifier 24
allows for 2 separate blocks, Verifier 64 allows for 4.

IMPORTANT: Zone addresses MUST NOT be duplicated. The system will NOT allow pairs of zones to have the same
address on an I/O Module. Different I/O Modules must not have the same address settings. If this happens
offending zone addresses will not initialize. Output addresses may be duplicated.

NOTE: The removal of any I/O module lid will activate the tamper switch and cause the second zone on the I/O
module to go open. E.g. on an I/O module with zones programmed 9 to 16, zone 10 goes open.

setting the Alert Accept time command for 1:00 will cause alerts to
be cleared on both splits at that time.
