The Security Industry Association (SIA) released a revision of American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/SIA CP-01-2007 - Control Panel Standard - Features for False Alarm Reduction.

This voluntary standard, which is a revision of ANSI/SIA CP-01-2000, details recommended design features for security system control panels and their associated arming and disarming devices to reduce the incidence of false alarms.

Intended for use by manufacturers that design control panels and alarm signal receivers, this standard can also be referenced by security system installers, specifiers and users; central stations and local authorities.

This revision was undertaken to address manufacturers’ requests for interpretation on the 2000 version of the standard, said the SIA.

In addition, the standard clarifies the issue of Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listings for control panels and the impact that CP-01 revisions have on a listing.

"Unless manufacturers are modifying their products in ways that may affect CP-01 features, such as new style panic buttons, this revision will not require manufacturers to relist their products with UL," said Ted Nesse, vice president of technology for Sequel Technologies and chair of SIA's Security Control Panels Subcommittee.

"The Security Industry Association supports all efforts aimed at reducing false alarms,” said Richard Chace, executive director and CEO of SIA.
