Control Panels
XR150 & XR550
Version 241 | June 24, 2024
Features
XV Cameras to Panel Integration
Version 241 firmware supports the upcoming XV Cameras with AlarmVision™ release. XV Cameras and their zones are programmed and managed exclusively through Dealer Admin.
This firmware introduces the Camera device type into panel programming. XV Cameras are programmed as a Camera device, assigned a device number, and allow the technician to program up to 4 zones per camera. This enables the cameras to have a persistent connection to the panel and trigger a panel event if needed.
For detailed instructions, refer to the XR Series Programming Guide or the XV Cameras with AlarmVision™ Help File.

Version 213 | November 21, 2018

Keypads
5-Inch Touchscreen Keypads
Version 207 | July 10, 2024
Improvements
Faulted Zone Update
When a system is set to the Home/Away arming type and has Closing Code turned on, the keypad lists the faulted zones before displaying OKAY BYPASS STOP.

7830F Touchscreen Keypads
Version 101 | July 31, 2024
Improvements
Inspection Reminder
Updated Version 101 (7/31/24) supports the XF6 Version 241 (8/5/24) Inspection Reminder Update.
To remain in compliance, Fire Alarm Control Panels require an inspection every 3 months, every 6 months, or once a year. Previously, the inspection scheduling was organized by the installing or servicing company.
Now, XF6 Series panels include inspection reminders for fire systems. This allows for the panel to remind the Dealer, Monitoring Center, and End User that an inspection needs to be performed to remain in compliance.
When an inspection is due, the keypad annunciates and displays a message reminding the user that their inspection is due soon. The End User can acknowledge the reminder to silence and clear the message.
A technician can enter into the keypad menu and select that they have completed the inspection. This will reset the inspection reminder countdown.

ICOMSL Series
Version 194 | April 30, 2020
Effective April 30th, 2020, CellCom/iCOM Series Communicators updated Version 194 (4/30/20) firmware is available for download.
Communication Enhancement
When updating a CellCom or iCOM Series Communicator that was Version 182 or lower and using Dealer Admin to program the unit, the communicator would send unnecessary information in communication programming. Dealer Admin would display an error when trying to send programming to these communicators. Updated Version 194 (4/30/20) resolves this issue.
After updating the communicator to Version 194 (4/30/20), it is recommended to retrieve the programming from the communicator using Dealer Admin in order for the error to be resolved.
If you have a CellCom or iCom that is Version 183 or higher, this is not an issue.
