Refer to Keypad Programming of Path # IP Address, 
Path # Port Number, and Path # Poll Rate
 on page 
132. 
Path # Poll Rate 
Default: 
Selection: 
0, 5 to 65535 sec 
Disables the heartbeat poll (not 
recommended, refer to the first 
Important Note that follows). 
5 to 65534 
Enables the poll rate for the amount 
of time programmed here. 
65535 
The maximum number of 65535 sets 
the poll rate to once every 24 hr. 
This prompt and the next two prompts determine how 
the SDI Path is supervised between the SDI device 
and the central station receiver(s). Do not confuse 
the SDI Path supervision with the supervision of the 
SDI device itself (the connection of the SDI device to 
the control panel). Each SDI Path can be configured 
to transmit a Heartbeat Poll to the central station for 
supervision purposes. This ensures the integrity of 
the connection at all times. 
 
If using IP Addresses as the 
communication means for UL 864 
Commercial Fire applications, program 
this parameter as necessary. 
 
 
 
In order to supervise the virtual link 
between the control panel and a central 
station receiver over a network path, you 
must
 set Path # Poll Rate to a non-zero 
value.  
 
 
If the control panel is programmed to 
send Heartbeat Poll to the central station, 
a rate of 75 sec maintains the virtual link 
in most network configurations. 
Decreasing the value for Path # Poll 
Rate
 increases the amount of idle 
communication between the SDI device 
and the central station receiver. 
Increased idle communication between 
the control panel and the receiver 
decreases the control panel’s event 
reporting efficiency. 
 
 
The control panel readjusts the Heartbeat 
Poll rate temporarily to less than 300 sec 
to 300 sec when online with RPS. The 
poll rate returns to the programmed value 
after the RPS session ends. 
The value programmed in Path # Poll Rate is the 
interval at which the control panel sends a Heartbeat 
Poll to the central station receiver. The value 
programmed in Path # Ack Wait is the length of time 
the control panel waits for an acknowledgment of a 
Heartbeat poll. If the acknowledgment is not received, 
the control panel checks to determine if the Path # 
Retry Count
 entry is greater than 0. If so, the control 
panel retries the number of times programmed (in 
Path # Retry Count) to send the Heartbeat Poll 
before declaring the Path failed and generating a 
COMM TROUBLE SDI ## for SDI 88 
(Path 1 = SDI 88, Path 2 = SDI 89, Path 3 = SDI 90, 
Path 4 = SDI 91) Event. For SDI 92 (Path 1 = SDI 92, 
Path 2 = SDI 93, Path 3 = SDI 94, Path 4 = SDI 95) 
event.  
If Path # Poll Rate is programmed with a value and 
the central station does not acknowledge the poll from 
the control panel, keypads annunciate a trouble 
condition. To send this event to the central station, 
refer to the Comm Trouble prompt in Section 2.12.2 
Panel-Wide Relays
 on page 81. 
Example of Heartbeat:  
  Path # Poll Rate is set to 120 sec 
  Path # Ack Wait time is set to 10 sec 
  Path # Retry Count is set to 2 
Keypad Programming of Path # IP Address, Path # 
Port Number, and Path # Poll Rate 
D1255 
1.  Refer to Figure 1 on page 7 to access Keypad 
Programming and navigate to the ENHANCED 
COMM 
option. Press [ENT]. 
2.  The keypad alternates between 
COMMUNICATIONS> and ENHANCED> YES
Press [NEXT] to access the Path 1 - 4 prompt.  
3.  Enter the path number you wish to configure and 
press [ENT]. The currently configured IP address 
shows. 
4.  Press [ENT] to change the IP address. An 
invisible editing cursor is enabled for the first byte.  
5.  The [PREV] button acts as a [Backspace] key. 
Press [PREV] to delete the characters of the byte, 
and then enter the new byte numbers, or press 
[NEXT] to move to the next byte. 
 
The keypad only accepts byte numbers 
valid for the current prompt. 
6.  Repeat Step 5 to enter the correct numbers for 
each byte. 
7.  Press [ENT] to save the changes. 
When the keypad reads PARAMETER SAVED, your 
selection is configured.
