System Overview

General

Your Honeywell security system consists of a main control panel, at least one keypad, and various sensors strategically positioned throughout the premises. The system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. The keypad provides full control of system operation.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status and provides appropriate information for display on the keypad(s) used with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.

This manual is designed to help you become comfortable operating your system. Each function is explained in step-by-step detail. We recommend you read the SYSTEM OVERVIEW section to become familiar with the terminology and the basic features of the system.

NOTE: If you have a Graphic/Touch-Screen Keypad connected to your system, refer to the Graphic/Touch-Screen Keypad User Guide for operating instructions.

NOTE: All references in this manual for number of zones, number of user codes, number of access cards, and the event log capacity, use the VISTA250BPT’s features. The following table lists the differences between the VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-128BPTSIA and the VISTA-250BPT control panels. Additionally, only the VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-128BPTSIA supports the capability to have a device duplicate keypad sounds at a remote location. All other features are identical for both panels.

System Overview (cont’d)

A Partitioned System

Simply stated, a partitioned system shares one physical alarm system among different users, each with their own requirements. For the most part, you as a user need not know about other users and their structure in the system, but from time to time, you may see display messages that indicate the system is in use by another user. Do not be concerned, this is normal. Refer to the ACCESSING OTHER PARTITIONS section for additional information.

Zones

Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example, the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 001, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 002, and so on. These numbers will appear on the display, along with an alpha descriptor for that zone (if programmed), when a fault, alarm or trouble condition occurs.

Fire Protection

The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always on and will sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes from your house.

Carbon Monoxide Protection

Carbon monoxide (CO) protection is available with your system using the 5800CO Carbon Monoxide Detector. The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered wireless Carbon Monoxide Detector used with wireless alarm systems that support 5800 series devices. Carbon monoxide gas is a highly poisonous gas which is released when fuels are burned. It is invisible, has no smell and is therefore impossible to detect with the human senses. We strongly suggest installing Carbon monoxide protection with your system.

Alarms

When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders will sound, and the keypad will display the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm message will also be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system.

The Swinger Suppression feature of your system limits the number of times a non-fire zone locally annunciates and transmits an alarm report to the central station. Ask your installer if this feature has been programmed.

– 6 –

System Overview (cont’d)

NOTE: Cross Zoning and Swinger Suppression options can help reduce false alarms. Ask your installer if your system is programmed for either of these features. An Abort Window feature exists for all non-fire zones. All non-fire alarm reports are NOT transmitted to the central station if the code + off sequence is entered within the Abort Window time period. Ask your installer if this feature has been programmed. There is also a 5-minute Cancel Window feature in your system. Starting at the end of the Abort Window you can cancel an alarm. A cancel signal is transmitted if either the alarm system is disarmed or both a disarm and a function key is pressed during the 5-minute Cancel Window time-period. A message of alarm aborted will appear on the keypad screen if this condition occurs.

Burglary Protection

The burglary protection portion of your system must be turned on or "armed" before it will sense burglary alarm conditions. Your system provides four modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT and MAXIMUM, and even allows you to BYPASS selected zones of protection while leaving the rest of the system armed. The system also provides a CHIME mode, for alerting users to the opening and closing of doors and windows while the system is disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for procedures for using these features.

The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of each.

	Features For Each Arming Mode
Arming	Exit	Entry	Perimeter
Mode	Delay	Delay	Armed
AWAY	Yes	Yes	Yes
STAY*	Yes	Yes	Yes
INSTANT*	Yes	No	Yes
MAXIMUM	Yes	No	Yes

* The system provides three different STAY and INSTANT arming modes. See ARMING IN THE STAY MODES and ARMING IN THE INSTANT MODES sections for details on these modes.

Memory of Alarm

When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains displayed until it is cleared by disarming the system (see DISARMING THE SYSTEM section).

– 7 –

System Overview (cont’d)

Speed Key (Macros)

The system can store a string of up to 32 keystrokes, which can be activated anytime by simply pressing the “A, B, C, or D” keys. This feature can be used to make it easy to perform multiple functions at once (such as going to another partition to bypass a zone), or it can be used to simplify an everyday, repeated procedure. Refer to the SPEED KEY section for procedures for using this feature.

Using Schedules

Your system may have been programmed with schedules for automatically arming, disarming and activating various devices and/or performing other system functions at predetermined times. Users can modify some of these schedules by manually delaying a closing time, using temporary schedules, or by programming special user schedules. Refer to the USING SCHEDULES section at the end of this manual for scheduling related procedures.

Device Timers

The system provides up to 20 "timers" that can be used to control various devices, such as lights or appliances. These timers are similar in concept to the individual appliance timers that might be purchased at a department store. The devices that can be controlled are programmed into the system by the installer. Up to 96 of these devices can be programmed. Refer to the PROGRAMMING DEVICE TIMERS section for procedures.

To Access another Partition (GOTO Command)

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in another partition, by using the GOTO command. Note that only those partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.

To GOTO another partition, enter your security code, then press [ ] followed by the desired partition number (1-8).

The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go to another partition, or until 2 minutes has elapsed with no keypad activity. Entering your security code, pressing [ ] followed by [0] will return the keypad to its original partition.

Master Keypad Operation

A "Master" keypad is one on which the status of all eight partitions is displayed simultaneously. A user can get more information about a certain partition by simply entering [ ] + the desired partition number (1-8). To log on to the "Master" partition

(9) using the GOTO command, and to perform any functions at a Master keypad, a user must have access to all partitions.

– 8 –

System Overview (cont’d)

Self-Help Feature

Abbreviated user's instructions are built into the system that can be easily viewed on the alpha keypad's message display screen. This feature will prove particularly useful if this manual is not conveniently accessible when you need to perform a system procedure with which you are not familiar.

To view the abbreviated instructions:

Simply press and hold down the function key of interest until the description starts to appear (about 5 seconds) and then release it. The system must be “READY TO ARM” to perform this function.

Refer to the FUNCTIONS OF THE KEYPAD section for descriptions of each key function.

Phone Access & Voice Response Capability

Your system may include a 4286 VIP module that will permit you to access the system via a Touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access feature will enable you to do the following:

•Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the security system.

•Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the telephone, with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.

•Control 4204 relay devices and lights and appliances through the #70 Manual Relay Activation mode.

Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate manual entitled PHONE ACCESS USER GUIDE, which accompanies the 4286 VIP module.

About The Keypads

General

IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a safe location nearby.

NOTE: If you have a Touch Screen Keypad connected to your system, refer to the Touch Screen Keypad User Guide for operating instructions.

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature a telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that shows the nature and location of all occurrences. Keypad display back lighting is programmable to always stay on or to light only when a key is pressed, then turn off a few minutes later.

The keypads also feature a built-in sounder that will sound during alarms and troubles. It will also "beep" during certain system functions, such as during entry/exit delay times, during CHIME mode, and when depressing keys to perform system functions (to acknowledge the key press). These sounds can be optionally suppressed in some of your keypads (so as not to disturb other users of the system). Ask your installer if this has been done.

The Alpha Keypad

Alpha keypads feature a 2-line, 32 character alphanumeric Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that can display system messages in user-friendly English. Abbreviated user's instructions can also be displayed (see Self Help paragraph in the SYSTEM OVERVIEW section). These keypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors.

Functions of the Keypad (cont’d)

ALPHA DISPLAY WINDOW: A 2-line, 32-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that displays protection point identification and system status, messages, and user instructions.

1 OFF

Disarms the burglary portion of

the system, silences alarms and audible trouble indicators, and clears visual alarm trouble after the problem has been corrected.

2 AWAY : Completely arms both

perimeter and interior burglary protection by sensing an intruder's movements through protected interior areas as well as guarding protected doors, windows, etc. Late arrivals can enter through an entry delay zone without causing an alarm if the system is disarmed before the entry delay time expires.

3 STAY : Arms the perimeter burglary

protection, guarding protected doors, windows and other perimeter protection points, and sounds an alarm if one is opened. Also allows automatic bypassing of certain areas which permits movement within your house without causing an alarm. Late arrivals can enter through an entry delay zone without causing an alarm if the system is disarmed before the entry delay time expires. See ARMING

PERIMETER ONLY for a full explanation of the STAY key.

4 MAXIMUM : Arms in manner similar

to AWAY mode, but eliminates the entry delay period, thus providing maximum protection. An alarm will occur immediately upon opening any protection point, including entry delay zones.

5 TEST : Tests the system and alarm

sounder if disarmed.

6 BYPASS

:

Removes

individual

protection zones from being monitored by the system. Displays previously bypassed protection zones.

7 INSTANT : Arms in manner similar

to STAY mode, but turns off the entry delay period, offering greater security while inside and not expecting any late arrivals. An alarm will occur immediately upon opening any perimeter protection point, including entry delay zones.

8 CODE : Allows the entry of additional

user codes that can be given to other users of the system.

– 12 –

Functions of the Keypad (cont’d)

9 CHIME : Turns on & off the CHIME

mode. When on, any entry through a protected delay or perimeter zone while the system is disarmed will cause a tone to sound at the Keypad(s).

READY : When depressed prior to arming the system, the keypad will display all open protection zones within the keypad's home partition. This key is also used to display all zone descriptors that have been programmed for your system, by holding the key down for at least 5 seconds.

# : Permits ARMING of the system

without use of a security code ("Quick Arm", if programmed).

KEYS 0-9: Used to enter your individual security access code(s).

LED READY INDICATOR: (GREEN) Lit indicates system is ready to be armed, while unlit indicates system not ready.

LED ARMED INDICATOR: (RED) Lit when the system has been armed (STAY, AWAY, INSTANT or MAXIMUM).

SPEAKER: Source of audible internal warning and confirmation sounds, as well as alarms (see "Summary of Audible Notifications").

FUNCTION KEYS: These keys can be used for Speedkey (macros) functions or panic keys. Refer to the SPEEDKEY (MACROS) and PANIC KEYS sections for descriptions of these functions.

Entry/Exit Delays

General Information

Your system has installer-programmed time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, a slow beeping will sound throughout the exit delay period.

Entry Delay gives you time to disarm the system when you reenter through the designated entrance door. But the system must be disarmed before the entry delay period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad will beep during the entry delay period, reminding you to disarm the system. You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the premises or while away for extended periods of time. See your installer for your delay times.

As a requirement of SIA-CP-01, Entry Delay is defaulted to a delay of 30 seconds and Exit Delay is defaulted to a delay of 60 seconds.

As a requirement of SIA-CP-01, an Exit Delay Reset is designed to allow a user to re-enter the premises to retrieve a forgotten item without triggering an alarm. This feature may only be activated once after arming.

If enabled, when the panel is armed, the normal exit delay begins. After the user exits, closes the door and then re-enters the premises, the exit delay time is reset to the programmed value.

As a requirement of SIA-CP-01, there is a communicator delay of 30 seconds in this control panel. This delay will prevent a report to the central station if the control panel is disarmed within 30 seconds after an intrusion alarm is triggered. This delay can be removed, or it can be increased up to 45 seconds at the option of the user by consulting with the Installer. Note that fire-type alarms are normally reported without delay.

– 14 –

Security Codes and Authority Levels

General Information

At the time of installation, you were assigned an authority level and a personal four-digit security code, known only to you and yours. The security code must be entered when arming and disarming the system. The authority level defines the system functions that you can perform.

As an additional safety feature, other users that do not have a need to know your code can be assigned different security codes, and each user can be given a different authority level. Users are identified by "user numbers", which are assigned when assigning a user's security code.

All codes can be used interchangeably when performing system functions within the limits of each code's authority level (a system armed with one user's code can be disarmed by another user's code), with the exception of the Operator Level C code. See AUTHORITY LEVELS on the following page for details regarding authority levels.

Duress Code

This feature is intended for use if you are forced to disarm or arm the system under threat. When used, the system will act normally, but can silently notify the central station of your situation, if that service has been provided. The duress code is pre-assigned by the installer during installation (authority level 6).

Important: This code is useful only when the system is connected to a central station.

Quick Arming

Note that if "Quick Arming" was programmed by the installer, the # key

can be pressed in place of the security code when arming the system. The security code must always be used to disarm the system, however.

Installer Code Lockout

If the Installer Code Lockout option has been enabled, the installer may enter the program mode only for a period of 24 hours. Once the 24-hour period has expired the installer can only enter the program mode if the Master user first enters the code + #65. This opens another 24-hour window in which the installer may enter program mode.

– 15 –

Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d)

Authority Levels

Authority levels define the system functions a particular user can perform. Depending on the authority assigned to you, there are certain system functions you may be prohibited from performing. In summary, there are six authority levels, each having certain system restrictions as shown below.

Level 1 Master: Can perform all system functions in assigned partitions, and can add, delete or change Manager and Operator level users. Master codes are added by the Installer.

Level 2 Manager: Can perform system functions in assigned partitions, and can add, delete or change Operator level users.

Level 3 Operator A: Can perform system functions in assigned partitions, but cannot add or delete other users.

Level 4 Operator B: Same as Operator A, except Operator B cannot bypass zones of protection.

Level 5 Operator C: Can arm the system in assigned partitions, but cannot disarm the system unless the system was armed with this code. This code is typically assigned to someone who has a need to arm/disarm the system only at certain times (such as a baby-sitter).

Level 6 Duress: Can arm and disarm the system, but also sends a silent panic alarm to the central station, if that service is connected.

To view your authority level and system capabilities:

1. Enter your code + + .

2.The keypad will display the partition(s) that you are authorized to operate, and your user number and authority level in each partition.

– 16 –

Security Codes and Authority Levels (cont’d)

General Rules on Authority Levels and Changes

•A user may not delete or change the user code of the SAME or HIGHER authority than which he is assigned.

•A user may only ADD users to a LOWER authority level.

•A user may assign access codes only to those partitions to which the user adding the code has access. (Ex. a user with access to only partition 1 cannot assign codes in partition 2.)

•The only way to assign a user's authority level is by using the "Add a User" procedure. To change a user's authority level, that user must first be deleted, and then added again.

•A user can only be DELETED or CHANGED from within the partition he is assigned.

•User numbers must be entered as 3-digit entries. Single digit user numbers must be preceded by a "00" (example, 003, 004, etc.). Security codes are entered as 4-digit numbers.

•Before assigning a security code, be sure it does not conflict with any DURESS code.

Note: When adding, changing or deleting users, all other alpha keypads in that partition will display "User Edit Mode – Please Stand By", and key depressions (except Panic) at those keypads will be ignored. Panic key depressions will cause an alarm and terminate user entry.

To Exit User Edit Mode

You can exit any of the user edit modes described on the following pages at any time by doing the following:

1. Press either or # , or don't press any key for 10 seconds.

2. System returns to normal mode.

GLOBAL ARM ? 0 = NO , 1 = YES

PART.2 - SHOP? 0 = NO , 1 = YES

PART. 1 A0* WHSE USER 003 AUTH=3G.

If you as a user have access to other partitions, the keypad will prompt for ability of this new user to access (GOTO) those partitions. Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES). If no, the system activates this user code and exits “Add a User” mode. If yes, the keypad prompts for the Global Arm option for this user.

Press 1 (YES) if this user will be allowed to try to arm more than one partition at the same time. Press 0 if this user will arm only his assigned partition.

The keypad now prompts for the user’s access to the next partition (see GOTO command). Again press 0 or 1. If yes, the system will automatically assign a user number for use in that partition and will prompt for authority level and global arm options for this user within the partition (see previous steps).

When all partitions have been displayed, the keypad will scroll through the partition(s) to which access has been assigned, and will display the user number, authority level and global arm option for each. The “G” after the authority level indicates that the global arm feature is active for this user in the displayed partition. The "*" indicates the partition from which this user can be changed or deleted. The "." at the end of the second line indicates that this user sends open/close reports. Open/close reporting is automatically active for any users added by you, if you have open/close reporting active.

The system will recognize that the User number is already in use and will prompt to confirm that it should be deleted. Press 0 (NO) or 1 (YES).

If yes, that user's code will be removed from all partitions to which it was assigned, and all authorization levels and other information about that user will be deleted. Note that a user can only be deleted from the partition in which it was first assigned, and can only be deleted by a user with a higher authority level. A User's security code cannot be deleted by oneself.

Accessing Other Partitions

To Access another Partition

Each keypad is assigned a default partition for display purposes, and will show only that partition's information. But, if the user is authorized, a keypad in one partition can be used to perform system functions in other partitions by using the GOTO command. Note that only those partitions authorized and programmed by the installer can be accessed in this manner.

To GOTO another partition:

	READY
1. Enter your security code, then press	+ partition number (0-8).

Entering partition number 0 will return the keypad to its original partition.

2. LOG-ON TO AAAA PART. X COMPLETE

The keypad will remain in the new partition until directed to go to another partition, or until 2 minutes has elapsed with no keypad activity.

AAAA = alpha descriptor programmed by the installer

X = partition number

Global Arming

The Global Arming option may be assigned for use by some users. If Global Arming was enabled for use with your security code, a keypad prompt (message) shown below appears after pressing one of the arming function keys (STAY, INSTANT, AWAY, MAXIMUM, OFF).

	ARM P 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8	The prompt displays all the partitions. The user
	HIT 0-8 X X X - - X - -	may only arm/disarm the partitions they are
		assigned access to.
		To select the partition(s) that are to be armed,
		enter the desired number 1-8. An "X" will appear
		under that partition. Entering a partition's
		number again will delete the “X” and that
		partition will not arm when this prompt is exited.
		Pressing 0 will turn all partitions the user is
		assigned access to on/off.
		When completed, press to exit. All the partitions
		with the “X” will then arm/disarm.

Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)

Global Arming Notes:

•When performing a Global Arm, if there are faults in any of the selected partitions, the system will enter a Summary Mode. Faulted zones in all the selected partitions will be displayed. These faults must be corrected or bypassed. This Summary Mode will end in approximately 120 seconds if no keys are pressed.

•When performing a Global Disarm, if any of the selected partitions has a condition which would cause the keypad to beep (e.g., alarm memory or a trouble condition), the system enters a Summary Mode and displays the condition. This Summary Mode will end in approximately 120 seconds if no keys are pressed.

Master Keypad Operation

A "Master" keypad is one that reflects the status of the entire system (Partitions 1-8) on its display. This is useful because it eliminates the need for a security officer in a building to have to "log-on" to various partitions from one partition's keypad to find out where an alarm has occurred.

A description of a typical display follows:

SYSTEM	1 2 3 4 5 6 7	8
STATUS	R R N N A T	B

The status of each partition is directly below the partition number on the display. Possible status indications include:

A = Armed Away	S = Armed Stay	M = Armed Maximum
I = Armed Instant	R = Ready	N = Not Ready
B = Bypassed/Ready	= Alarm	T = Trouble
F = Fire Alarm	P = AC Power Failure	L = Low System Battery

C = Comm Fail

To obtain more information regarding a particular partition, enter [ ] + [Partition No.] (i.e., 4). This will allow viewing only of that partition. In order to affect that partition, the user must log on with a code that has access to that partition. Also, in order for a user of any partition to log onto the "Master" partition (Partition 9) to view the status of all partitions, and to perform any functions at the Master keypad, that user must have access to all partitions. Otherwise, access will be denied.

Accessing Other Partitions (cont’d)

The following is an example of what would be displayed for a fault condition on Zone 002 (Loading Dock Window) on Partition 1 (Warehouse) when logging on from a keypad on Partition 9:

WHSE DISARMED

HIT FOR FAULTS

This is the normal display that appears at Partition 1's keypad(s). Pressing will display:

FAULT 002 LOADING

DOCK WINDOW

Additional zone faults will be displayed one at a time. To display a new partition's status, press + [Partition No.]. This will display the status of the new partition.

The "Armed" LED on a Master keypad will be lit only if all partitions have been armed successfully. The "Ready" LED will be lit only if all partitions are "ready to arm."

The sounder on a Master keypad will reflect the sound of the most critical condition on all of the partitions. The priority of the sounds is as follows:

A.Pulsing fire alarm sounds

B.Steady burglar alarm sounds

C.Trouble sounds

The sounder may be silenced by pressing any key on the Master keypad.
