they receive a certain signal. If they can do it for 4/2 format they can do=
 it for CID also.- =C1=F0=FC=EA=F1=F5=F8=E7 =EA=E5=E9=EC=DD=ED=EF=F5 =F3=E5=

They are plenty of new panels in the market that add a new event with
a cid code that the arc has not upload at the cid format. Its easy as
you said for the tech to inform the central station for this new
event. But most of the times the tech guy does not know about this
"unknown" new event (i.e. "log full", "supervision lost" etc) So how
will inform the arc? :-)
