The UNI•COM circuit board contains a CPU, other primary components and wiring  
interface connectors.  
1.5  
Circuits  
1.5.1 Power Requirements  
Operating voltage for the UNI•COM must be power-limited, filtered, nonresettable  
21.2 to 28.2 volts. The 24 VDC nominal operating power must be supplied by the  
Control Panel and is connected to TB1 of the UNI•COM.  
Note: If the UNI•COM is installed in a Unimode 200 Control Panel, power is  
provided directly through UNI•COM connector J10 which plugs into the Unimode  
200 main circuit board.  
1.5.2 Communications  
Communications between the UNI•COM and the host control panel is accomplished  
over a two wire EIA-485 serial interface which is power-limited and supervised by  
the control panel and the UNI•COM. The wiring connections are made to the RS+,  
RS- and Shield terminals of TB1 on the UNI•COM.  
The EIA-485 circuit cannot be T-Tapped and must be wired in a continuous fashion  
from the control panel to the UNI•COM and, if installed, an annunciator. The wire  
must be 12AWG to 18AWG twisted shielded pair cable with a Characteristic  
Impedance of 120 Ohms, +/-20%. Limit the total wire resistance to 100 Ohms on the  
EIA-485 circuit. Do not run cable adjacent to, or in the same conduit as 120 volts  
AC service, noisy electrical circuits that are powering mechanical bells or horns,  
audio circuits above 25 voltsRMS, motor control circuits, or SCR power circuits.  
Note: If the UNI•COM is installed in a Unimode 200 Control Panel, the EIA-485  
data line is connected directly through UNI•COM connector J10 which plugs into  
the Unimode 200 main circuit board.  
1.5.3 Primary and Secondary Phone Lines - Modular jacks are used to interface  
the primary and secondary phone lines to the public telephone network.  
1.5.4 Communicator Fail Relay Driver - Relay driver output for central station  
communication failure is available.  
1.5.5 Earth Ground - Connect a separate earth ground wire to TB3 terminal 1 for  
transient protection. When mounted in the Unimode 200, the UNI•COM receives an  
earth ground connection via a metal standoff located on the upper right corner  
mounting position.

For Canadian Applications  
The following is excerpted from CP-01 Issue 5:  
"NOTICE: The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified  
equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain  
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The  
Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.  
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be  
connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The  
equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In  
some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual  
service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone  
extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above  
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.  
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian  
maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by  
the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the  
telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.  
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections  
of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if  
present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in  
rural areas.  
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should  
contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate."  
"The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of  
the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to  
prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of  
devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all the  
devices does not exceed 100."

1.9  
Modes and  
Special  
Functions  
1.9.1 Normal Mode:  
Normal mode is the standard mode of operation in which the UNI•COM monitors  
host FACP status as well as telephone line voltage. The UNI•COM reports system  
status information to UL listed Central Station Receivers. Information transmitted  
includes zone/point: fire alarm, fire alarm trouble and supervisory alarm. Specific  
system trouble conditions and specific UNI•COM troubles are also transmitted.  
1.9.2 Serviceman Code:  
The serviceman code, once entered, allows access to program, walktest, troubleshoot  
and type modes. The serviceman code also enables the clear function. Refer to  
following sections.  
1.9.3 Program Mode:  
Program mode is used to program the UNI•COM. While the UNI•COM is in the  
program mode, it cannot receive host FACP status information. See Section 3.0 for  
complete programming instructions.  
1.9.4 Walktest Mode:  
While in the walktest mode, transmission of FACP system events may be optionally  
transmitted to the UCS receiver (Central Station).  
1.9.5 Troubleshoot Mode:  
Troubleshoot mode may be used for testing the telephone line wiring. Connection  
from the UNI•COM's modular jacks, through RJ31X jacks and into the telephone  
network may be easily checked. In this mode, the keypad acts similar to a telephone  
touchpad.  
1.9.6 Type Mode:  
Type mode is used to program into the UNI•COM the system zones/points which are  
non-fire alarm, i.e. supervisory type. This mode is also used to disable the alarm  
report for any zone/point in the system. The feature which disables the zone/point  
alarm report must be used for zones/points programmed into the host FACP as  
remote silence, reset, drill or acknowledge switches.  
1.9.7 Clear Function:  
When the clear function is activated, it causes the UNI•COM to immediately stop  
transmissions, disconnect from the telephone network, clear out any messages that  
were waiting for transmission and reset.  
1.9.8 Manual Test Function:  
The manual test function allows a test report message to be sent to both central  
stations upon activation. A Serviceman Code is not required.  
1.9.9 Lamp Test Mode:  
The UNI•COM 4-character display segments plus all LEDs illuminate in this mode.  
1.9.10 User Code:  
The user code, once entered, allows for user level testing and maintenance functions.  
The user may be allowed to transmit walktest data to the UCS for the Unimode 200  
system.

Relay Driver  
The UNI•COM's open collector output on TB3, terminal 2 is provided for Communi-  
cator Failure and UNI•COM trouble. It can be used to drive UL listed relay MR-101/  
C or MR-201/C. The output is rated for 40 mA and is power-limited. The normal  
condition for the output is Off (deenergized).  
Communicator Failure occurs when the maximum number of attempts to reach both  
central stations has taken place or when both phone lines are disconnected.  
UNI•COM trouble conditions include loss of telephone line voltage to the primary or  
secondary phone lines, communication failure to the primary or secondary central  
stations or entry into Programming, Troubleshoot or Type Mode..  
Wiring from the UNI•COM terminal TB3 to the relay must be in the same room no  
more than 20 feet in length and enclosed in conduit. Wiring from the relay output  
contacts must also remain in the same room as the UNI•COM.  
When the UNI•COM is programmed as 'Receive Only' (typically this occurs when  
annunciators are also used and are set for 'Receive/Transmit'), the relay output is  
used to provide a UNI•COM trouble input to the host control panel. For Unimode  
200 applications, use a monitor module to supervise the relay closure. Refer to  
Figure 2-3. Program the adjective and noun fields for 'DACT Trouble'. For  
Unimode II or Unimode 4-16 applications, wire the relay output to the annunciator  
trouble input circuit or use the relay to trigger zone trouble.  
When the UNI•COM is programmed as 'Receive/Transmit', EIA-485 supervision and  
UNI•COM trouble status are automatically handled by the host control panel.

is communicating with a central station.  
Programming Mode  
The UNI•COM has a built-in programmer. All programming selections are stored in  
nonvolatile Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM).  
This ensures that the UNI•COM will retain all entries made in programming mode  
even if power is removed.  
The user must program the primary and secondary phone numbers, account numbers  
and 24 hour test report times for each central station account and the current time.  
The UNI•COM comes with factory chosen options/features already programmed.  
Other options/features may be programmed if desired. If all factory default settings  
are acceptable, programming is complete.  
Note: Access to the Programming Mode is not available to the end user. It may only  
be accessed by the serviceman.  
3.1  
Entering  
Program Mode  
To enter the Program Mode, first press the MODE key followed by the 4-digit  
serviceman code (factory default is 6, 3, 2, 1) then press the ENTER key. Next, to  
enter the Program Mode, press the MODE key once (the display will go blank) then  
start entering the code (7764). You have ten seconds to start entering the code.

7764  
Note that as you enter information into the  
UNI•COM, the digits will scroll across the  
display from right to left  
You are allowed a pause of up to 10 seconds in between each number while entering  
the code. After pressing the [ENTER/STORE] key, the UNI•COM will be in  
Program Mode and display 00_F. You are allowed up to ten minutes of idle time at  
this point before starting your programming, otherwise the UNI•COM will go back  
to Normal Mode. You also have a maximum of 10 minutes between any key stroke.  
All entries made prior to the 10 minute time-out are valid and stored.  
Once in Programming Mode, the UNI•COM will:  
•
•
Ignore the Test and Clear keys.  
Continue to communicate any events not previously acknowledged at the  
central station prior to entering Programming Mode.  
Location 54 is factory set to = 0, UNI•COM communications disabled. This keeps the  
communicator off until location 54 is changed to 1, 2, 3 or 4. Refer to program  
selection for address 54 in this section. Once location 54 is changed from 0 to 1, 2,  
3 or 4 and a valid phone number is entered, transmission of the Serviceman on  
Premises report will occur.

Valid entries for both the primary and secondary phone numbers are 0 - F with the  
numeric digits as dialed numbers and hexadecimal digits (A-F) representing the  
following functions:  
A= * on a Touchtone phone keypad  
B= # on a Touchtone phone keypad  
C= look for secondary dial tone for up to 2 seconds (then, dial anyway)  
D= 3-second pause  
E= 5-second pause  
F= end of phone number (Note: F must be entered)  
Primary Number Communication Format (16)  
One location is needed to select the Communication Format to the primary phone  
number. Address 16 is used for this purpose. The default (factory setting) for this  
address is '0' and cannot be changed. The format is ADT FSK II.  
Primary Number Account Code (17-19) Three locations at addresses 17-19 default  
to all '0's. Valid entries are 0-9.  
Primary Number 24 Hour Test Time (20-23).  
Use military time when entering the 24 hour 'test' time. The 24 hour test report to  
phone number 1 takes up four locations, from addresses 20-23. The default is 00:00  
(12:00 midnight). The limits for each location are as follows: 20: enter 0, 1 or 2;  
21: enter 0-9; 22 : enter 0-5; 23: enter 0-9. Note: Do not use A-F.  
Primary Number 24/12 Hour Test Time Interval (24). The test report sent to the  
Primary phone number may be sent every 12 or 24 hours. If the message is to be sent  
every 24 hours, leave the factory default entry of zero. If 12 hour test report time is  
needed, enter 1=12 hours.

UNI•COM Communication Selection (54)  
Leaving address 54 at '0' disables communications to the central station(s). Enter '1'  
for zone reporting, receive only. Enter '2' for zone reporting, receive/transmit. Enter  
'3' for point reporting, receive only. Enter '4' for point reporting, receive/transmit.  
Note: Use receive only selections when using remote annunciators. Be certain to set  
one of the annunciators for receive/transmit for EIA-485 communications bus  
supervision. Use the receive/transmit entries when annunciators are not installed or  
when the UNI•COM receive/transmit function is used to supervise the EIA-485  
communication bus. For additional information on the receive/transmit function,  
refer to annunciator technical manuals.  
Backup Reporting (55) address 55 entry of '0' allows reports to be sent to  
Secondary phone number as backup only. Leaving address 55 with the default  
setting of '1' permits transmission to either the central station's Primary or Secondary  
phone number. The report will be sent to the first available receiver. An entry of '2'  
disables reports from being sent to the Secondary phone number.  
Touchtone/Rotary Select (56) A '0' programmed in this address by the factory  
triggers Touchtone dialing over both phone lines. Select '1' for rotary dialing.

AC Loss Reporting Delay (60) '1' is factory default which causes a 6 hour time  
delay for AC loss reporting. Valid entries are 0 to 9 and A to F corresponding to the  
following reporting delay times: '1' = 6 hour, '2' = 7 hours, '3' = 8 hours, '4' = 9  
hours, '5' = 10 hours, '6' = 11 hours, '7' = 15 hours, '8' = 16 hours, '9' = 17 hours, 'A'  
= 18 hours, 'B' = 19 hours, 'C' = 20 hours, 'D' = 21 hours, 'E' = 22 hours and 'F' = 23  
hours. '0' entry causes immediate reporting of AC loss.  
Host Panel ID (61)  
Enter one of the following digits corresponding to the Control Panel in which the  
UNI•COM is installed. A correct entry is essential for proper operation.  
0 = Unimode 200  
1 = Unimode 416  
2 = Unimode II  
3 = Do not use  
4 = Do not use  
5 = Do not use  
6 = Do not use  
7 = Do not use  
8 = Do not use  
9 = Do not use  
Serviceman Code (62-65)  
The factory default is 62=6, 63=3, 64=2 and 65=1. The code must be properly  
entered to enable the following modes: program, walktest, troubleshoot and type. It  
also enables the clear function. The code may be changed. If, however, the code is  
changed and then forgotten, the factory default code of 6321 may be restored by  
pressing the MODE key followed by A, A, 1, 2, 3 and then pressing [ENTER/  
STORE].  
Safety Delay Time (66-68)  
Factory default is addresses 66=0, 67=0 and 68=0. Do not use.  
User Codes (69-98)  
Six 4-digit user codes may be programmed. The user is identified at the UCS  
receiver by this 4-digit code. In addition, each user code may designate whether or  
not the walktest events are transmitted to the UCS when the UNI•COM is used with  
a Unimode 200 FACP.  
69 - 72 = User 1 Walk Test Code  
73  
= User 1 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
74 - 77 = User 2 Walk Test Code  
78  
= User 2 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
79 - 82 = User 3 Walk Test Code  
83  
= User 3 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
84 - 87 = User 4 Walk Test Code  
88  
= User 4 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
89 - 92 = User 5 Walk Test Code  
93  
= User 5 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
94 - 97 = User 6 Walk Test Code  
98  
= User 6 Walk Test Transmit Enable  
For all User Walk Test Codes, the factory default of FFFF means no user is  
identified. Altering the default entries causes the user to be identified. Valid entries  
are 0 - 9 and A - F. For the Walk Test Transmit Enable addresses, a factory default  
entry of '0' disables the transmission of walktest events, while an entry of '1' enables  
the transmission of walktest events.

Programming Event Codes (99-168)  
A description of the type of reports with reported 'event code' that are sent to the  
central station appear in Tables 3-2 and 3-3. Entering a transmit selection of '0' will  
cause the communicator to inhibit transmission of the report. Transmission of  
reports to either or both central station phone numbers may be disabled.  
Note the special 'System Abnormal Test Report' event code. This report was added  
per new UL DACT requirements. This report is generated in place of the normal test  
report when an alarm and/or trouble condition exists at the time the test report is  
due to be sent.  
Programming the Real-Time Clock  
Entering an address greater than 172 will cause a display of the current time. On  
initial power up, the clock will start running from the factory setting of 00:01  
(military time). The far left digit will be flashing, indicating that this is the first digit  
to be programmed.  
Hours/Minutes  
Select a digit then press [ENTER/STORE]. The digit 2nd from the left will start  
flashing. Select a digit then press [ENTER/STORE]. Hours setting is complete.  
With the digit 2nd from the right flashing, select a digit then press [ENTER/  
STORE]. The digit on the far right will start flashing. Select a digit then press  
[ENTER/STORE]. Minutes setting is complete.  
End Programming  
Exit Programming Mode by pressing MODE, followed by the 4-digit code  
corresponding to an alternate mode of operation, then press [ENTER/STORE].  
During Program Mode, if no key is pressed within 10 minutes, the UNI•COM will  
revert to normal mode.

4.1.3 Normal Mode Operation: Normal mode is the standard mode of operation. In  
this mode, the UNI•COM monitors host FACP status, power input, EIA-485  
communications and telephone line voltage.  
The four character 7-segment display is normally off and does not annunciate events  
that are being transmitted. The display will only annunciate UNI•COM trouble  
conditions in the normal mode.  
The UNI•COM transmits zone/point and system status reports to a central station via  
the public switched telephone network. Two supervised telephone line connections  
are made to interface the UNI•COM to the telephone lines.  
The UNI•COM supervises both telephone lines for proper voltage. A delay of two  
minutes will occur before a fault in either phone line connection is reported as a  
trouble. When a fault is detected, the 4 character display will show either 'no 1' or 'no  
2' (depending upon which telephone line has the fault. 'no 1' = Primary Line, 'no 2' =  
Secondary Line) and the trouble condition will be reported to the central station over  
the remaining good phone line.  
The UNI•COM comes with line seizure capability provided for both the primary and  
secondary telephone line interfaces. Any time that the UNI•COM needs to make a  
call to the central station, line seizure will disconnect any local premises phones  
sharing the same telephone line.  
All transmission to the central station will be sent over the Primary phone line. In the  
event of noisy phone lines, transmissions will be sent over the backup Secondary  
phone line.  
Options exist to: (1) send reports to the secondary phone number as backup only, (2)  
send reports to either the primary or secondary phone numbers or (3) send reports to  
the primary phone number only. For additional information, refer to programming  
address 55. If 10 total attempts to communicate are unsuccessful, the Communicator  
Failure output will be turned on (TB3, terminal 2).

The UNI•COM meets NFPA 72 for Remote Station Protective Signaling Service and  
central station Signaling Service reporting requirements for: (a) the type of signal (b)  
condition and (c) location of the reporting premises.  
Since higher priority events take precedence over lower priority events, the  
UNI•COM will transmit higher priority events before sending the lower priority  
events. Priorities are as follows:  
Event Activations  
1. General Alarm  
2. Zone/Point Alarm #N  
3. General Supervisory  
4. Zone/Point Supervisory #N  
5. General System Trouble  
6. AC Power Loss

Where #N represents the zone or device ID number.  
Note: The Unimode 200 has a maximum capacity of 99 addressable smoke detectors  
and 99 addressable modules. When the UNI•COM is programmed for point transmis-  
sion, the reported range of addresses is 001 to 099 for detectors at addresses 01 to 99  
and 101 to 199 for modules at addresses 01 to 99.  
When using AIM modules with the Unimode II, the UNI•COM will report AIM devices  
in up to 8 zones maximum.

The 'general' reports for general fire, general supervisory and general fault are  
always transmitted (unless disabled). Zone or point information will follow the  
general reports if enabled.  
4.1.4 Key Report Descriptions  
Serviceman on Premises  
This report is generated any time that the serviceman enters a 4-digit code into the  
UNI•COM that matches the entry programmed into addresses 62-65. The report  
generated to the UCS receiver tells the central station that a serviceman is on the  
premises and is about to perform some type of maintenance on the system.  
The Serviceman Code must first be entered in order for the serviceman to gain  
access to program, walktest, troubleshoot and type modes. The Serviceman Code  
also enables the clear function.  
To enter the Serviceman Code, press the MODE key followed by the correct 4-digit  
code, then press the [ENTER/STORE] key. Once the [ENTER/STORE] key is  
pressed, the UNI•COM transmits the serviceman on premises report to the UCS. At  
this time, the UNI•COM continues to be fully capable of reporting system status to  
the central station.  
Once the Serviceman Code is correctly entered, the UNI•COM may be placed into  
any mode by pressing the MODE key, entering the appropriate 4-digit code and then  
pressing the [ENTER/STORE] key. While in any of the selected modes, the  
UNI•COM is not capable of reporting system status to the central station. The  
4-digit codes are as follows:  
Program Mode  
Walktest Mode  
Troubleshoot Mode  
Type Mode  
7764  
9255  
8768  
8973  
2532  
Clear Function  
For additional information on the functionality of each mode, see the appropriate  
sections.  
Note: If the Serviceman Code is forgotten, the factory default code of 6321 may be  
restored by pressing the MODE key followed by A, A, 1, 2, 3 and then pressing the  
[ENTER/STORE] key.  
The UNI•COM will also transmit the Serviceman on Premises Report when the  
correct level one password is entered into the Unimode 200.  
Serviceman off Premises Report  
The serviceman off premises report is generated to indicate that the serviceman has  
completed maintenance on the fire alarm system and is exiting the premises. This  
report is transmitted by the UNI•COM by pressing the MODE key, entering the  
digits 99 and then pressing the [ENTER/STORE] key.  
System Test Report  
The UNI•COM will transmit a test message to both central stations at programmed  
intervals (typically every 24 hours). Should there exist an abnormal condition in the  
fire alarm system (such as an alarm, trouble or supervisory condition) at the time  
when the test report is due to be transmitted, the UNI•COM will report the 'system  
abnormal test report.' If the system is normal, the report transmitted will be the  
normal 'system test report.'

EIA-485 Communications Trouble Report  
The UNI•COM supervises the integrity of the information received from the FACP  
via the EIA-485 communications bus. Should the communications bus malfunction,  
the UNI•COM transmits the report '485 comm trouble.' When the communications  
bus returns to proper operation, the UNI•COM will report '485 comm trouble  
restoral.' The EIA-485 communications bus is supervised when the UNI•COM is  
configured for receive only or receive/transmit operation.  
Manual Test Report  
By pressing the TEST key three times in rapid succession, the UNI•COM will  
transmit a manual test report to the UCS. The TEST key may be pressed at any  
time. The Serviceman Code is not required.  
Program settings for zone or point reporting must match in both the host FACP and  
the UNI•COM. Refer to the Unimode 200 Technical Manual section on Level One  
programming for instructions on setting the FACP for zone or point annunciation.  
Refer to Section 3.3 of this manual for instructions on setting addresses 50 through  
54 and 61. Also refer to Section 4.3 for a discussion of Type Mode.  
Zone/Point Fire Alarm Report  
The UNI•COM reports activated status of specific zones or points defined as fire  
alarm. Fire alarm devices include smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices,  
heat sensors, etc. The report transmitted includes the fire alarm message and the  
identity of the activated zone or point.  
Note: Use the Type Mode to identify all supervisory devices installed in the system  
to the UNI•COM. Refer to the Type Mode instructions in Section 4.3.  
Zone/Point Supervisory Activation Report  
The UNI•COM reports activated status of specific zones or points defined as  
supervisory. The report transmitted includes the supervisory alarm message and the  
identity of the activated zone or point.  
General Fault Report  
The general fault report is transmitted for most types of system trouble conditions  
including the following:  
• Zone/point trouble  
✓
✓
✓
✓
✓
✓
✓
Maintenance alert  
Wrong device  
Improper device  
Improper address  
Auto-detector test failure  
No response  
Shorted or open initiating device circuit  
• Main SLC loop fault  
• Earth fault  
• Reverse polarity/city box trouble  
• Memory corruption  
• Disabled point  
• Off-line programming  
• Annunciator trouble.  
Note: When a zone or point is in trouble, transmitted messages include the specific  
zone or point trouble report and the general fault report (unless disabled).  
A general fault report is not sent for AC loss and EIA-485 failure. These trouble  
conditions are transmitted as individual trouble reports.

Zone or Point Restoral Report  
Zone or point restoral reports are not transmitted to the UCS unless the zone or  
point is fully cleared of both alarm and trouble conditions.  
Walktest Begin and End Reports  
• Serviceman Walktest:  
Once a correct Serviceman Code is entered, Walktest Mode may be entered. In  
Walktest Mode, the serviceman has the option of transmitting all system walktest  
activity to the UCS or not reporting the activity to the UCS. The begin and end  
walktest messages identify the person walktesting the system as a serviceman  
(User id7).  
• User Walktest:  
Once a correct User Code is entered, Walktest Mode may be entered at the host  
FACP. In Walktest Mode, the user option of transmitting all system walktest  
activity to the UCS or not reporting the activity to the UCS is determined by  
program entries 69-98. The begin and end walktest messages identify the user  
walktesting the system as user 1 through 6. Refer to Section 3.3 for programming  
addresses 69-98.  
When used with a Unimode 200 FACP, Walktest Mode allows the option of  
transmitting all system activity during walktesting to a central station. It also  
prevents unwanted signals from being transmitted to the central station that may  
be interpreted as real fire alarm reports.  
4.2  
Walktest Mode  
For Unimode II and Unimode 4-16 applications, placing the FACP into Walktest  
Mode causes transmission of an EIA-485 bus failure message. Exiting Walktest  
Mode at the FACP causes the UNI•COM to transmit a restoral of EIA-485 bus  
message.  
To perform a Walktest, first, enter the Serviceman Code into the UNI•COM by  
pressing the MODE key, entering 9255 and then pressing the [ENTER/STORE]  
key. Next, place the host FACP into Walktest Mode (refer to appropriate section  
in the host FACP Technical Manual). Note that the Unimode 200 must be placed  
into point reporting operation in order to transmit walktest reports.  
The display will show the letter C as the left most character and a flashing zero as  
the right character. If the [ENTER/STORE] key is pressed, system walktesting  
will occur without transmitting the system activity to the central station. With the  
zero flashing, if the digit 1 is pressed changing the right most character to 1, and  
then the [ENTER/STORE] key is pressed, walktesting will occur with system  
activity transmitted to the central station.  
The UNI•COM will display 9256 if walktest data is not being transmitted to the  
central station. If the UNI•COM is transmitting the walktest data, 9259 will be  
displayed.  
The clear function may be used while in the walktest mode to stop the UNI•COM  
from completing transmissions of walktest data. Exiting walktest mode is not  
possible as long as there is walktest data waiting to be transmitted.  
If users are allowed to walktest a system, they must follow the same steps de-  
scribed above except they must first enter their User Code.  
31  
Document # 50075 Rev B 3/13/95

The UNI•COM will not transmit any system walktest data unless the UCS receiver  
(central station) first acknowledges receipt of the Begin Walk Test report. This is  
an added precaution to insure that the walktest data is not misinterpreted at the  
central station as a live report.  
Exit walktest mode by entering the Serviceman off Premises code or return to an  
alternate mode by entering the appropriate 4-digit code for that mode. Users  
should enter the Normal Mode by entering code 6676. Should no activity occur in  
the system for one hour, the UNI•COM will automatically exit walktest mode and  
report 'id0BE1'.  
Type mode may be used for the following purposes:  
4.3  
Type Mode  
• Disable alarm reports by zone or point  
• Identify which zones or points in the system are supervisory points  
• Identify which zones or points are fire alarm points  
• Change NAC fault report to unique report versus zone/point fault  
• Bypass reports for alarm or trouble on a zone/point  
To access Type Mode, enter a valid serviceman code and press the MODE key.  
Next enter the 4-digit code 8973 and then press the [ENTER/STORE] key. The  
UNI•COM will display three digits. For example the display may be as follows:  
01  
0
The characters to the left identify the zone or point number. In this example, 01  
identifies zone 01 or point address 01. The character to the right (0 in this  
example) identifies the type of zone or point as follows:  
0 = Zone or point defined as fire alarm  
1 = Disable zone or point report for alarm only, transmit zone or point  
fault  
2 = Zone or point defined as supervisory  
3 = NAC fault to be reported as 'UT###'  
4 = Bypass zone or point reports entirely. No transmission of zone/point  
alarm or fault  
Factory default is all zones or points set to '0' for fire alarm. To change the type  
definition of the zone or point from the factory setting of '0', press the 1, 2, 3 or 4  
keys. The digit entered will appear on the far right display. Next press the  
[ENTER/STORE] key. This stores the entry into E2 memory and increments to  
the next higher address.  
Use the UP, DOWN and 1st EVENT keys to move through the list of 120 zones  
or 198 points (refer to Appendices A, B and C), similar to the method described in  
the programming section of this manual.  
For Unimode 200 applications, when the UNI•COM is programmed for point  
reporting, detectors are reported as points 001 to 099 and modules are reported as  
points 101 to 199.  
To define all zones or points as fire alarm (return to original factory default  
settings) enter zone or point 999 and then press the [ENTER/STORE] key. The  
display will change to 01 0, indicating a return to the factory default settings.

4.3.1 Disabling of Zones or Points  
This feature is primarily used when system points have been defined as remote  
reset, acknowledge, silence or drill switches. Refer to the FACP Technical  
Manual for additional information. Activation of remote switches appear as  
alarms on the EIA-485 bus while in point type of annunciation. The UNI•COM  
will report these points as fire alarm points unless disabled in the Type Mode.  
Disabling of zones or points also prohibits the activation (shorted or alarm  
activated condition) from being reported by the UNI•COM. Disabling of the zone  
or point does not affect the reporting of the zone or point trouble condition.  
4.3.2 Zone or Point Supervisory  
Defining a zone or point as supervisory is required in order for the UNI•COM to  
identify the correct report to transmit to the UCS. Follow the programming  
instructions in the Unimode 200 manual to program a zone or point as superviso-  
ry. Next program the zone or point as a code 2 for supervisory.  
Use the charts in Appendices C and D to enter point and zone definitions.  
Note that while in Type Mode, the fire protection and reporting capabilities of the  
UNI•COM remain inactive.  
To access the Troubleshoot Mode, enter the correct Serviceman Code, then press  
MODE 8768 and [ENTER/STORE].  
4.4  
Troubleshoot  
Mode  
☛
8768 spells TROU on a Touch-Tone® phone.  
Once in this mode, the UNI•COM will continue to communicate any events not  
yet acknowledged at the central station prior to entering Troubleshoot Mode.  
The UP Arrow, DOWN Arrow and 1st EVENT keys do not function in this  
mode.  
Telephone Line Testing  
Pressing C for touchtone dialing or D for rotary dialing, followed by [ENTER/  
STORE] causes seizure of the Primary phone line which in turn lights the red LED  
signifying Primary phone line active. After a delay of three seconds, the UNI•COM  
goes off hook to acquire a dial tone.  
The UNI•COM keypad may be used as a telephone touchpad for number dialing.  
Once the first digit is pressed, the display will move the C or D character one  
position to the left, while placing the digit to be dialed on the farthest right display  
position. Continue to press the phone numbers to be dialed. Successive depressions  
of the [ENTER/STORE] key hangs up and picks up the phone (places the phone on  
or off the hook).  
The secondary phone line may be tested by pressing the E key for touchtone dialing  
or the F key for rotary dialing and then following the same procedure used for the  
primary phone line.

Appendix D: Unimode 200  
The UNI•COM is capable of reporting 198 points or 56 zones when used with the  
Unimode 200.  
The UNI•COM may be mounted in the Unimode 200 control panel or remotely in an  
ADT-ABS8RF or ADT-UBS1F enclosure up to 6000 feet away from the control  
panel. All power must be removed from the control panel before making any  
connections to prevent circuit damage. The EIA-485 serial interface is connected  
between the control panel and UNI•COM using twisted, shielded pair wire. Power  
should be wired from the control panel's 24 VDC (nominal) filtered, non-resettable  
output to TB1 on the UNI•COM if mounted remotely.  
Figure D-1: ADT-UBS1F  
UNI•COM mounting in Unimode 200  
Remove all power from the Unimode 200 by disconnecting AC and batteries. Install the supplied standoffs (three nylon  
and one aluminum standoff) in the appropriate holes located on the right side of the Unimode 200 main circuit board as  
illustrated in Figure D-2. Position J10 located on the back of the UNI•COM over connector J16 which is located center  
right on the main Unimode 200 circuit board, and carefully connect. Secure the UNI•COM to the aluminum standoff  
with the screw provided.  
The EIA-485 circuit and 24 VDC power are provided directly from connector J16 of the Unimode 200. Note: A 120 ohm  
EOL resistor is not required on the UNI•COM EIA-485 terminals when it is installed inside the Unimode 200 cabinet.  
The EOL resistor is required at the last device on the EIA-485 line external to the Unimode 200 panel.

Notes:  
1) This arrangement allows use of the UNI•COM simultaneously with the RTM-8F module.  
2) Ferrite cores are recommended for all applications.  
3) Recommended wire is 12 AWG to 18 AWG twisted pair.  
4) Shielded wire is not required (unless mandated by local AHJ).  
If shielded wire is used, connect only one end of shield:  
a) shield may be connected to cabinet (earth ground) at fire alarm panel, or  
b) shield may be connected to TB1 Terminal 5 (Shield) at UNI•COM as shown in  
Figure D-3. NOTE: The shield end that is not connected should be insulated to prevent  
accidental grounding. Do not connect both ends of shield under any circumstance  
since a ground fault may result.  
5) Conduit is recommended for external wire runs. Consult local building codes.  
6) Connect Ground Strap (supplied with ADT-ABS8RF enclosure) from Earth Ground terminal on  
UNI•COM to a solid building earth ground. Conduit alone will not provide a reliable earth ground.  
7) UNI•COM may be located up to 6000 feet away from the host control panel.  
8) Refer to Specifications for power requirements.

Appendix E: Unimode 4-16  
The UNI•COM is capable of reporting a maximum of 56 zones when used with the Unimode 4-16.  
The UNI•COM reports alarms and troubles on inputs and reports only troubles on outputs. Beware of  
'gaps' in the reporting of input circuits. The gaps depend upon the mounting location and FACP  
configuration. The Unimode 4-16 has a maximum of 16 inputs.  
The UNI•COM must be mounted remotely in an ADT-ABS8RF or ADT-UBS1F enclosure and may be  
placed up to 6000 feet away from the control panel. All power must be removed from the control panel  
before making any connections to prevent circuit damage. The EIA-485 serial interface is connected  
between the control panel and UNI•COM using twisted, shielded pair wire. Power should be wired  
from the control panel's main power supply (MPS-24BPCA) 24 VDC (nominal) filtered power supply  
output to TB1 on the UNI•COM.

Appendix F: Unimode II  
The UNI•COM is capable of reporting 120 zones when used with the Unimode II. The UNI•COM  
reports alarms and troubles on inputs but reports only troubles on outputs. Beware of 'gaps' in the  
reporting of input circuits. The gaps depend upon the mounting location and the Unimode II system  
configuration. AIM modules are reported as a maximum of 8 zones.  
The UNI•COM may be mounted in the Unimode II control panel or remotely in an ADT-ABS8RF  
or ADT-UBS1F enclosure up to 6000 feet away from the control panel. All power must be removed  
from the control panel before making any connections to prevent circuit damage. The EIA-485  
serial interface is connected between the control panel and UNI•COM using twisted, shielded pair  
wire. Power should be wired from the control panel's main power supply 24 VDC (nominal) filtered,  
non-resettable output to TB1 on the UNI•COM.  
Figure F-1: ADT-ABS8RF  
UNI•COM mounting in Unimode II  
Remove all power from the Unimode II by disconnecting AC and batteries. Install the three supplied nylon support  
posts for the top and bottom left of the UNI•COM, one aluminum/nylon and one aluminum standoff in the CHS-4 chassis  
slot in which the UNI•COM is to be installed (refer to Figure F-2). Position the UNI•COM on the standoffs and secure  
on aluminum standoff with a #6-32 screw.  
Connect the communication line between the EIA-485 terminal block on the CPU-5000 and TB-1 terminals 3 and 4 on  
the UNI•COM being certain to observe polarity (refer to Figure F-3). Recommended wire is 12 AWG to 18 AWG twisted  
pair. If no other devices are connected to the EIA-485, install a 120 ohm EOL resistor across UNI•COM TB1 terminals  
3 and 4.  
Connect the supplied Ground Strap from the UNI•COM Earth Ground terminal on TB3 to the CHS-4 chassis. Connect  
24 VDC filtered, regulated power to TB1 terminals 1 and 2 on the UNI•COM (refer to Figure F-4).
