SPECIAL MESSAGES

OC = OPEN CIRCUIT (no communication between Keypad and Control). EE or ENTRY ERROR = ERROR (invalid field number entered; re-enter valid field number). After powering up, AC, dI (disabled) or Busy Standby and NOT READY will be displayed after approximately 4 seconds. This will revert to a Ready message in approximately 1 minute, which allows PIRS, etc. to stabilize. You can bypass this delay by pressing [#] + [0]. If E4 or E8 appears, more zones than the expansion units can handle have been programmed. The display will clear after you correct the programming.

When using Powerline Carrier devices, you must use a 4300 or 1321X10 Transformer instead of the 1321 Transformer. The 4300/1321X10 Transformer provides AC power to the control panel, and also supplies signals from the control panel through the premises AC wiring to the Powerline Carrier devices (which are plugged into AC outlets). You can then make devices that are plugged into Powerline Carrier devices perform various functions in response to commands you enter at the security system keypads.

On-Board Triggers

Connect field wiring to the desired trigger pin on the 8-pin trigger connector centrally located above the terminal strip. If using 1321X10 transformer and powerline carrier devices, use the SA4120XM-1 cable. See Wiring the AC Transformer section for transformer connections. If only using the on-board triggers, you can use a standard keypad cable as shown below.
Trigger outputs are normally high, and go low upon programmed condition. The outputs can be programmed for inverted operation (normally low, go high) using *79 Menu mode. Program these triggers using *80/*81 Menu modes as you would for any other relay output. When using these outputs, note: pin 1 = output number 17 (trigger 1): 15 ohms to ground when closed (output low), open when off (output high, normal default); can be used to reset smoke detector power (must set output normal low = yes in *79 Menu mode, and set for zone type 54, fire zone reset, in *80 Menu mode); or can support 12V relay module that draws less than 100mA pin 5 = output number 18 (trigger 2): 100 ohms to ground when closed (output low); open when off (output high, normal default); or can support 12V relay module that draws less than 20mA

e.g., Altronix AX-RSB

Programming Overview

About Programming

You can program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual installation. Programming can also be performed remotely from the installers office/home, using an IBM personal computer, a modem, and Compass downloading software. The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system:
Programming Mode Data Field Programming Used to Program basic data fields used for setting the various system options. Most of the data fields in this system have been programmed for specific default values. However, some fields must be programmed for each particular installation to establish its specific alarm and reporting features. Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial numbers for 5800 RF transmitters. Program each of the four alphabet function keys to perform one of several system operations. Assign zone attributes similar to 56 mode, but provides a faster programming procedure and is intended for those more experienced in programming controls of this type. Assign device addresses used by 4229 or 4204 Relay modules and map specific relays and device outputs, and assign unit codes for Powerline Carrier devices Define up to 48 output definitions which can control the output relays mapped using *79 Output Device Mapping mode. Create Zone Lists for relay/powerline carrier zones, chime, night-stay, and pager zones. Create alpha descriptors for easy zone identification. Create schedules to automate various system functions.

Zones and Partitions

Each protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming mode or *58 Expert Programming mode. Refer to those sections for detailed procedures. The VISTA-20P system can control two independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by independent users, if desired, by simply assigning zones to one or the other partition during zone programming. The VISTA-20P, by default, automatically distributes users between the two partitions. The master user can change the user number distributions. Zones can also be assigned to a common partition, which is an area shared by users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a building). This allows either partition to arm, while leaving the common partition disarmed for access into the other partition. The following describes the functioning of the VISTA-20P common partition: The common zone sounds and reports alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only one partition is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone. Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other partition will not be able to arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected. Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone keypads, and will also appear on another partitions keypad when that partition is armed. Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.

Function Keys

To assign functions to the function keys, use *57 Function Key menu mode. To assign emergency key functions (function key option 00), first program the respective emergency zone number (95 for A key, 96 for C key, 99 for B key) with the desired zone type using *56 Zone Programming mode, then use *57 Function Key menu mode to assign the desired key. If using a function key to activate a relay action (*57 Menu mode key function 07), use *79 Menu mode to map the output, and use *80 Menu mode to define the outputs action; select system operation type 66. If using a function key for a user macro, use *57 menu mode to activate the desired key, then define the actual macro functions using the user code + [#] + [6] [6] command.

Output Devices

To program a device for manual activation (user code + [#] [7] / [#] [8] + 2-digit device number) or for scheduled automatic activation, simply map the device using *79 Menu mode. To program a device to automatically activate upon a system event (or function key), use *79 Menu mode to map the device, then use *80 Menu mode to define the automated device action. If the device action is based on more than one zone, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones.

Zone Type Definitions

You must assign a zone type to each zone, which defines the way in which the system responds to faults in that zone. Zone types are defined below.
Zone Type Type 00 Zone Not Used Type 01 Entry/Exit Burglary #1 Description Program a zone with this zone type if the zone is not used. Type 05 Trouble by Day/ Alarm by Night Assign to zones that are used for primary entry and exit. Provides entry delay if control is armed in the Away, Stay, or Night-Stay modes. No entry delay provided when the panel is armed in the Instant/Maximum mode. Entry delay #1 is programmable from 30 to 240 seconds for each partition. Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the arming mode selected, and is programmable from 45 to 180 seconds (field 34). Assign to zones that are used for entry and exit and require more time than the primary entry/exit point. Provides a secondary entry delay, in same manner as entry delay #1. Entry delay #2 is programmable from 30 to 240 seconds for each partition. Exit delay is same as described for Type 01. Assign to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows. Provides an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is armed in the Away, Stay, Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes. Assign to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway through which one must pass upon entry (to and from the keypad). Provides a delayed alarm (using the programmed entry/exit time) if the entry/exit zone is faulted first. Otherwise this zone type gives an instant alarm. Active when the panel is armed in the Away mode. Bypassed automatically when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes; if armed in Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list) are not bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode. Assign to a zone that contains a foil-protected door or window (such as in a store), or to a zone covering a sensitive area such as a stock room, drug supply room, etc. Can also be used on a sensor or contact in an area where immediate notification of an entry is desired. Provides an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away, Stay, Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum (night) modes. During the disarmed state (day), the system will provide a latched trouble sounding from the keypad (and a central station report, if desired).

Installation Instructions FIELD TITLE and DATA ENTRIES Dynamic Signaling Delay
0 = disabled (both signals sent) 115 = entry times a 15-second delay. e.g., 1 = 15 seconds, 2 = 30 seconds, etc.
Intended for use with Long Range Radio reporting. This field lets you select the time the panel should wait for acknowledgment from the first reporting destination (see 55) before it attempts to send a message to the second destination. Delays can be selected from 0 to 225 seconds, in 15-second increments. This delay is per message. If 0 is entered in this field, the control panel will send redundant reports to both Primary Dialer and LRR. UL Installations: For Fire Alarm and UL Burglar Alarm installations without Line Security (Grade A), the maximum Dynamic Signaling Delay must be no more than 15 seconds. For UL Burglar Alarm installations with Line Security (Grade AA), Dynamic Signaling Delay must be 0. The reports will be sent to both the dialer and the LRR. Intended for use with Long Range Radio reporting. You must also enable field 29, OUTPUT TO LONG RANGE RADIO. Select the initial reporting destination for messages as follows: Primary Dialer First selected (0): If acknowledged before delay expires (see 54), then message will not be sent to LRR. If not acknowledged before delay expires, then message is sent to both the Primary Phone No. and LRR. Long Range Radio First selected (1): If acknowledged before delay expires, then message will not be sent to the primary dialer. If not acknowledged before delay expires, then message is sent to both the Primary Phone No. and LRR. Use this menu mode to program zone information. See Zone Programming section for procedures. This menu mode can be used to quickly program zone information, but is recommended only for those already familiar with *56 menu mode. See Zone Programming section for procedures. Use this menu mode to program keypad function keys. See Function Key section for procedures.

Ring Count For Downloading
015 = number of rings before control picks up phone line.
NOTE: If 15 is entered to bypass an answering machine, and a 4285 or 4286 Phone Module is included in the system, you should note the following: When calling in from an off-premises phone, the user should make the initial call, allow 1 or 2 rings only, then hang up, then call again. The phone module will now seize the line, and 2 long tones sound, followed by the usual voice prompt for the access code. If this procedure is not followed, phone module operation will not be possible.

Completing Zone Programming
When you have finished programming all zones, test each zone using the systems TEST mode. Do not use the Transmitter ID Sniffer Mode for checking wireless transmitting devices, as it will only check for transmission of one zone on a particular transmitter, NOT the zones assigned to each additional loop. NOTE: Following the successful enrollment of each wireless device, note the device serial number in the appropriate column on the ENROLLED TRANSMITTERS worksheet in the Programming Form; then enter the other information (zone number, zone type, loop number, etc.) relevant to that device.
58 Expert Programming Mode Procedures
This method is designed for use by installers with previous experience in programming ADEMCO control panels. This mode is also used to program wireless keys using pre-defined templates. Start Expert Programming mode by pressing 58 while in Data Programming mode. The following prompts are displayed: PROMPT
SET TO CONFIRM? 0 = NO 1 = YES 0

VALID ENTRIES Confirm?

This display appears upon entry into this mode. The default is 0 (No). If 1 (Yes) is entered, you will be prompted to confirm each transmitter after entering the serial and loop numbers (at the XMIT TO CONFIRM prompt later). A summary screen will appear, showing zone 1s currently programmed (or default) values. Enter the zone number being programmed, then press [], which displays a summary screen for that zone. See next prompt (in this example, zone 10 is being entered). If programming a wireless key, press the [D] key then skip to the Wireless Key Programming Templates section following this section. When [D] is pressed, you can choose from a series of preset templates for easy programming of wireless key zones. When all zones have been programmed, press 00 at this prompt to quit this menu mode.
