5 = Temporary Codes
Temporary Codes allows a PIN to be temporarily allocated to a user. On selecting this option, enter the
number of days (0 – 99) that the code is to remain active. The default setting of 0 indicates that the code is
permanent. A temporary code expires and is removed from the codes list at midnight after the assigned
number of days. A code that has been assigned as a Temporary Code is indicated on the user code display
by a ^ between the user number and the user name, for example 001^USER.
NOTE:The manager, engineer, or remote codes cannot be assigned as Temporary Codes.
PIN Change
If a user is assigned the PIN Change feature in the Temporary Code option, the user must assign a new PIN
after a predetermined period — refer to option 51.42 = PARAMETERS.PIN Change — otherwise the
user PIN expires and is no longer operational.
To program a user code to prompt for a PIN change select the Temporary Code and press the 7 key
instead of entering a number of days for a temporary code; press the ent key to accept the programming and
return to the previous menu level. A code that has been assigned as a PIN Change code is indicated on the
used code display with a 7 between the user number and the user name, for example 001
7 77 7
7USER. The
Manager, Engineer, or Remote codes cannot be assigned as PIN Change Codes.
If the value entered in the PIN Change parameter is 0 then the code is assigned as a permanent PIN — a
warning message is briefly displayed to indicate that a Pin Change will not be requested. However, if PIN
Change is within the range 1 – 12, then the number entered is number of months after which the code must be
changed, otherwise it expires.
NOTE:The PIN expires on the first day of the following month.
A notification (1 – 28 days) that the PIN requires to be changed can be assigned using the PIN Warning
option (refer to option 42.2); this prompts the user to assign a new code whenever the expiring code is en-
tered - except when the system is unsetting - for the number of days in the PIN Warning before the day the
PIN expires. The new PIN must be six digits and must be different from any current PIN including the user’s
existing one. The new PIN must be re-entered and, if confirmed, the user is returned to the banner. If the esc
key is pressed or the new PIN entered is invalid, the user may continue to use the panel as normal; the next
entry of the PIN will prompt for the PIN change.
NOTE:If the user has not assigned a new PIN by the end of the PIN Warning period, then the code is
erased on the next unsetting of the system.
6 = Modify Group
This option determines the system groups that the user has access to and operational control over. The
Modify Groups option is only available when the group mode is enabled.
Galaxy 3-520
The Galaxy 520 panel has 32 groups; these are displayed on the keypad in blocks of eight groups, sub-
divided into A, B, C and D:
Press keys 1 – 8 to assign the relevant groups in each block to the user.
Code has been enabled (refer to option 63.1 = OPTIONS.Groups); the system defaults to groups disabled.
42 - Codes (cont’d)

On selecting the Modify Groups option, the groups currently allocated to the user are displayed. All user
default to group 1. Pressing the group number toggles the group assigned to the user; pressing 2 and 3 assign
groups 2 and 3 to the user; pressing 1 (when group 1 is already assigned) removes group 1 from the user
code. To assign group choice to the user, press the 7 key. When the required groups have been assigned to
the user, press the ent key to accept the programming and return to the previous menu level.

Table 8. Groups
Group Options
Single GroupA user can be assigned to any single group. In this case the type 2.2 and above user can
only access, set and unset the single group.
Multiple GroupsUsers can be allocated to more than one group in which case access and operation is
collective; the user cannot choose to operate on a single or combination of the assigned
groups.
Group ChoiceUsers can be allocated more than one group but also have the choice of which of the
allocated groups to view , set or unset. Pressing the 7 key while assigning groups to the
user assigns the group choice feature.
NOTES:
1.The manager, engineer and remote codes have fixed access to all system groups; this cannot be
reprogrammed.
2.The manager, engineer and remote codes are assigned group choice by default. The manager can
have the group choice feature removed; the engineer and remote codes have fixed group choice.
3.Users authorized to access Option 42 = CODES, can only assign the groups that have been
assigned to their user code; A user who does not have access to group 4, cannot assign group 4 to
another user code.
7 = MAX Number
The MAX Number contains one of the following:
• the 10 digit number etched onto the MicroMAX/MAX
3 card/fob/tag
• a number generated by the RF RIO identifying an RF Keyfob button
• the decrypted code of cards/tags self learned into the system for use with the keyprox.
These numbers identify the card/tag/fob to the system and references it to the user it has been assigned to.

By default MAX Number is empty.
To enter the required number:
1.Enter the unique 10 digit number laser etched onto the MAX/MicroMAX card/Fob tag or
enter the unique RF keyfob button identifier generated by the RF RIO (refer to RF RIO programming
instructions II1-0076 for details) or
press the A and 1 keys simultaneously of the KeyProx and present the card/fob to the KeyProx reader
within five seconds. The decrypted number in the card will be self learned onto the Galaxy panel and
displayed on the KeyProx.
2.Press the ent key to save the programming and return to the previous menu level.
NOTE:A MAX number can be assigned to a user code that does not have a PIN allocated to it. All other
options assigned to this user are valid for the card/fob/tag button programmed.
8 = MAX Function
The card/fob/tag/button can be assigned a single menu option. The user must be authorized to access the
menu option assigned to the MAX - either by the user level assigned or menu option 68 = Menu Access.
The default option is Not Used.  A new option is assigned by pressing the A or B key until the required option
is displayed or by entering the option number directly and then pressing the ent to accept the selection.
9 = MAX Keypad
The menu option assigned to the MAX card can be limited to operate on a single keypad. On selecting this
option the display shows 77, indicating that a keypad has not been specified. To specify a keypad, press the
# key.  The address of the first keypad on the system is displayed. Use the A or B key to select the required
keypad and press the ent key to accept the selection.
NOTE:The address of the keypad that is currently being used is indicated by a black square flashing over
the first digit of the keypad address.
“Card-Held” Operation
The programmed MAX function is activated when either,
• the card/fob /tag is held continuously in front of the MAX/MicroMAX/KeyProx reader for 3 seconds
or
• the programmed RF keyfob button is pressed. It should be noted that if button 1 of the RF keyfob is
programmed as a setting function, button 2 will automatically become the unset action, as long as
button 2 has been programmed for MAX operation on the RF RIO.
If using a MAX/MicroMAX or KeyProx the reader or KeyProx must be assigned a common group to the
user. The keypad specified in option 9 = MAX Keypad displays the assigned MAX function.
Assigning Dual Functions to MAX Numbers
If a card has a # assigned to the number, then any card-held function will only work in conjunction with the
PIN from the same user, provided that the PIN has a # assigned also. The Dual Focus function will work in
either order, but if the card is presented first, it will simply enable the PIN to gain access to the normal menu
(see option 42 = Codes for programming).
42 - Codes (cont’d)

42 - Codes (cont’d)
If a user’s card number is assigned a *, then the card becomes Dual access. This means that it will not open
the door on its own; it needs another PIN or card as well. If the PIN belonging to the same user has a #
assigned, then that PIN must be entered first before access will be granted to that card.
If the PIN has no # assigned, then the card will work only in conjunction with any other Dual Access card that
shares one or more groups (see option 42 = Codes for programming).
10 = Forgive Antipassback
This function if selected clears all antipassback restrictions for the selected user.
2 = PIN Warning
This option determines the number of days notification before the PIN Change expiry date (refer to option
51.42 = PARAMETERS.PIN Change) that the user is prompted to assign new code on entry of the expir-
ing PIN. The default period is 28 days, with a programmable range of 1 – 28. If the user does not assign a
new code by the end of the PIN Warning period, then the code is erased on the next unsetting of the system.
NOTE:The PIN Warning ends on the last day of the month, the PIN expires on the first day of the follow-
ing month.

Option 43 – Summer (Quick Menu Option 9)
The Daylight Savings Time is in accordance with European standards. The Daylight Savings time is described
as follows:
On the first day of each year, the British Summer Time (BST) Start date is set to the last Sunday in March
and the End date is set to the last Sunday in October.
 The operation of the Summer option is as follows: at 01:00 hours (GMT) on the Start date, the system clock
advances to 02:00 hours (DST); at 02:00 hours (DST) on the End date, the system clock goes back to 01:00
hours (GMT).
NOTE:The time always changes with reference to GMT. For example, Italy, which is +1 hour would be:
Last Sunday in March - 02.00 to 03.00
Last Sunday in October – 03.00 to 02.00
The Start and End dates can be reprogrammed by authorized user codes. Press the A key to modify the
Start date or the B key select the End  date; the new date must be a valid four-digit number - in the day/
month format (dd/mm).
Option 44 – Trace
This option provides a record of the most recent alarm activation. The Trace option records the details of the
setting and unsetting of the system immediately before and after the alarm activation and the first five events
occurring during the alarm activation. This information is maintained in the trace until the next alarm activation.
On entering the option pressing the A and B keys steps through each of the seven trace entries.
Pressing the # key while viewing the Trace option displays additional information about certain events — user
events reveal the keypad, user level and current group; alarm events reveal the zone descriptor if pro-
grammed.
The currently display trace can be printed out by pressing the 7  key; pressing the esc key aborts the print-
out.
NOTE:A serial printer must be connected to the Galaxy panel via the on-board serial port, a printer inter-
face module or an RS232 interface module.
Group Mode
If group mode is enabled (refer to option 63 = OPTIONS), there is a separate trace for the most recent
alarm activation in each of the groups. On selecting the Trace option, a user with group choice (refer to option
42 = CODES) can view the trace of the assigning groups; press the number of the group to be displayed —
the N below the selected group changes to a Y — and then press the ent key.
If more than one group is selected, or the user does not have group choice, then the trace for the group with
the most recent alarm activation is displayed.

45 - Timer Control
Option 45 – Timer Control
1 = View
This option allows the programmed times in each of the Timers to be viewed:
1.Timer A;
2.Timer B;
3.Autoset
Use the A and B keys to scroll through each of the programmed times.
NOTE:The programmed times cannot be modified using this option.
All of the programmed timers - Timer A, Timer B, Autoset - can be printed out using option 57.11 =
SYSTEM PRINT.Timers.
2 = Holidays
This function allows up to ten holiday periods to be allocated. A Start and End date is entered for each
holiday period using the 1 = Modify Dates option, and the groups that are affected by the programmed
holiday periods are assigned using the 2 = Assign Groups function. The operation of all timers for the as-
signed groups is suspended during these dates; the last operation of the Timers before the start date remains
in operation until the first operation after the end date. For example, a code which has been allocated the
Timer A  period in the CODES option (42.1.4.1) will be inoperative during the programmed holiday period if
the Timer A is in the On time when the holidays starts.
1 = Modify Dates
On selecting this option, the Start and End dates for holiday period 1 are displayed; an arrow (>) points to
the Start date. If no dates have been entered for this period, then the display shows 77/77.  To program
the Start date, press the ent key; the date display changes to >DD/MM) indicates which date is currently
selected.
To remove a programmed date, press the 7 key. The date display returns to 77/77.
Use the A or B key to move between the different holiday periods or enter the number of the holiday period
(1 – 10) to be programmed.
The holiday periods can only be programmed by the master manager and engineer. Users can access this
option, however, they can only view the programmed holiday dates.

2 = Assign Groups
This function determines which of the groups are affected by the programmed holiday periods.
On selecting the Assign Groups option, the groups currently assigned to the programmed holiday periods are
indicated by a Y below the group; an N is displayed below the unassigned groups. All groups default to Y.
Pressing the group number toggles the group status. When the required groups have been assigned to the
holidays, press the ent key to accept the programming and return to the previous menu level.
Galaxy 3-520
The Galaxy 520 panel has 32 groups; these are displayed on the keypad in blocks of eight groups, sub-
divided into A, B, C and D:
Press keys 1 – 8 to assign the relevant groups in each block to the user.
3 = Early Open
If the Early Open option (45.4.2) is enabled, the Lockout OFF time (refer to option 65 = TIMERS) for
the following day is brought forward by the number of minutes (0 – 240) programmed in parameter 44 =
Early Open. This allows the system to be manually unset earlier than normal.
1 = Early Times
This function displays the time that the system can be manually unset on the following day; this time is the
Lockout OFF Time minus the Early Open period and is displayed in the 24 hour format.
If groups have been enabled, the early opening time for each of the groups enabled for early opening in the
Early Open option can be viewed by pressing the A or B keys
This function only displays the early time if the Early Open option is enabled; if this option is disabled or if no
groups have been enabled, the message NO ENTRIES is displayed.
2 = Early Open
Type 3. 6 Users and Engineer when Groups are Disabled
If groups have not been enabled on the system, the programming of the Early Open option is identical for
type 3.6 users and the engineer; the option permits early opening to be disabled or enabled:
0 = Disabled (default) — early opening not permitted;
1 = Enabled — early opening permitted.
Select the required status and press the ent key to accept the programming and return to the previous menu.
Engineer Mode with Groups Enabled
If groups have been enabled (option 63 = OPTIONS + early open permitted), then the groups can be
individually enabled to permit early opening.
4 = Timers
This option allows Timer A and Timer B to be switched on and off as required. If a Timer is set to off, the
operation of the Timer is suspended; this option cannot be used to alter the programmed times. Both timers
default to 0 = Off. To switch the timers on, select the required timer and change the setting to 1 =On.
The Timer Status can also be altered through menu option 65.1 by the engineer only.
45 - Timer Control (cont’d)

On selecting the option, the early opening status of the groups is displayed; early opening enabled is indicated
by a Y below the group; an N is displayed below the groups that are not programmed to open early. All
groups default to N.
NOTE:Only the engineer can enable early opening for individual groups, but global enable must be done
first.
5 = Late Work
The Late Work option — if programmed as 1 = ON — authorizes an Autoset Extension in advance of the
prewarning period (refer to option 65.3 = TIMERS.Autoset);
NOTE:Additional extensions can be authorized by entry of a valid code during the subsequent autoset
prewarning periods.
6 = Weekend Work
The Weekend Work   option allows a valid user code to authorize the system to unset at the weekend. If the
Weekend Day is programmed other than 0 = OFF (default), on the next occurrence of the programmed
Weekend Day, the Timers adopt the times they have on the assigned Pattern day.  For example, this
allows a Sunday to use the Autoset and Lockout Timers of a Monday.
NOTE:Parameter 41 = Weekend Work must be enabled (default is Disabled) to allow the Pattern Day
option to be programmed by the engineer and the Weekend Day to be selected by the user.
On selecting this option, 1 = Program Days is displayed. Press the ent key; 1 = Weekend Day is dis-
played. Press ent to select this option, or the A or B keys to move between the available options.
1 = Weekend Day
On selecting this option the programmed Weekend Day is displayed; the default is 0 = OFF. Use the A  or B
keys to select the required day or days and press the ent key to accept the programming and return to the
previous menu level:
0 = OFF
1=SAT
2 = SUN
3 = BOTH (Saturday and Sunday)
The selected Weekend Day remains active for one occurrence only.  The Weekend Day returns to the
default of OFF immediately following the assigned day. The Weekend Day must be allocated each time the
function is required.

Option 46 – Group Omit
This option allows a type 3.6 type code to block omit all the omittable zones that are open at the end of the
confirm time in a group or multiple groups.  All zones in the required groups that have the omit attribute ena-
bled (refer to option 52.4 = PROGRAM ZONES.Omit) are omitted when this option is selected. Groups
can be omitted and reinstated without setting and unsetting the system.
On selecting the Group Omit Option the groups assigned to the user code and keypad are displayed as well
as the omit status of each group (Y below the group indicates that it is omitted, N indicates that it is not omit-
ted). To omit a group, press the required key. The letter beneath the group number changes from N to Y.  To
reinstate the group press the key to toggle from Y to N.
NOTE:The type 3.6 user must have group choice to enter Group Omit.
NOTE:The zones in the selected groups are omitted from the system as soon as the group is selected.
On returning to the banner (normal or engineer) the keypad displays the message ZONES OMITTED.
Omitted zones remain omitted for one set period only or until they are manually reinstated to the system.
Outputs programmed as Zone Omit (mode programmed as reflex) are activated as soon as the zone is
omitted and remains active until the zone is reinstated. If the output mode is programmed as latch, then the
Zone Omit outputs activate when the system is set and remain active until the system is unset — reinstating
the omitted zones.
