1.2.2 ESCORT5580 Module
There are many benefits to adding the ESCORT5580 module
to a security system. The ESCORT5580 module will turn any
touch tone phone in the world into a fully functional keypad.
Imagine the security a customer would feel if they had the
ability to arm, disarm and check status of their alarm system
while at the office or on vacation.
1
SYSTEMV INTRODUCTION
All touch tone phones in the home also become system
keypads. For example, at bedtime, the phone beside the bed
can be used to arm the system. The addition of the
ESCORT5580 may reduce the cost of the overall installation,
eliminating the need for additional keypads and the labour of
running wires.
The ESCORT5580 will also act
as a tutor for the system. By
using clear, easy to understand
sentences, the voice module
helps guide the user through
functions they may otherwise
find difficult to navigate. Programmable zone labels (up to
6 words each from our library of over 240 words) makes the
system even easier to use.
The module also has a built-in power line control interface
and can control up to 32 power line control devices for
lighting and temperature control, giving you the power to
add home automation in a very cost effective manner.
Devices can be activated individually, as a group, by
schedule or can be activated when an event occurs on the
system, such as an alarm.
These are just a few of the applications available with the
addition of the ESCORT5580 module. For more information,
please refer to the ESCORT5580 Installation Manual.
1.2.3 PC5400 Printer Module
This module will give you the
added advantage for the
commercial customers who
like the idea of a permanent
record of openings and
closing but are put off by the
additional monthly
monitoring charge. In addition, as reports are generated in
real-time, the customer will not have to wait for a monthly
report form the monitoring station.
The PC5400 Printer Module will allow the panel to print out
all events that occur on the system to any serial printer. The
printout will contain the time, date and the event that occurred
(see Section – 5.25 “On-site Printer”).
1.2.4 Downlook Video Transmission Module
The Downlook Still-Frame Video Transmission Module (DLM1/DLM-4) is the ideal solution for all business and residential
environments which require visual surveillance but where
the presence of on-site security personnel is impossible,
undesirable or unaffordable.
Downlook is the smart and inexpensive way to add visual
backup to your regular remote alarm signalling system,
meeting your demand for tighter security on a tight budget.
The added visual protection will reduce the incidence of
false alarms as well as surveillance costs, thus improving
the overall security protection.
For more information regarding the Downlook Video
Transmission Module, please consult the DLM-1/DLM-4
Installation Manuals.
1.2.5 Cabinets

Getting Started
SECTION2
The following Sections provide a thorough description of how to
wire and configure devices and zones.
2.1 Installation Steps
The following steps are provided to assist you with installing
the panel. We suggest that you read this section in its entirity
before you begin. Once you have an overall understanding of
the installation process, carefully work through each step.
Working in this manner will reduce the number of problems as
well as the amount of time required for a complete installation.
Step 1 Create a Layout
Draw a rough sketch of the building to get an idea of where
all alarm detection devices, keypads and other modules
are to be located.
Step 2 Mounting the Panel
Locate the panel in a dry area close to an unswitched AC
power source and the incoming telephone line. Before
attaching the cabinet to the wall, be sure to press the four
circuit board mounting studs into the cabinet from the back.
After you have attached the cabinet to the wall, stick the
provided DSC logo sticker on the front of the cabinet.
You must complete all wiring before applying AC or
connecting the battery to the panel.
Step 3 Wiring the KEYBUS (Section 2.3)
Wire the KEYBUS to each of the modules following the
guidelines provided in Section 2.3 of this manual.
Step 4 Zone Wiring (Section 2.8)
You must power down the control panel to complete all
zone wiring. Please refer to Section 2.8 when connecting
zones using normally closed loops, single EOL resistors,
double EOL resistors, Fire zones and Keyswitch Arming
zones.
Step 5 Complete Wiring (Section 2.2)
Complete all other wiring including bells or sirens, phone
line connections, and ground connections following the
guidelines provided in Section 2.2 (“Terminal
Descriptions”).
Step 6 Power up the Control
Once all zone and KEYBUS wiring is complete, power up
the control panel.
The panel will not power up on the battery connection alone.
Step 7 Keypad Assignment (Section 2.5)
In order for keypads to be properly supervised, each must
be assigned to a different slot. Please follow the guidelines
provided in Section 2.5 when assigning keypads.
Step 8 Supervision (Section 2.6)
The supervision of every module by the panel is
automatically enabled upon power up. Please verify that
all modules appear on the system according to the
instructions in Section 2.6.
Step 9 Programming the System (Sections 4 and 5)
Section 4 explains how to program the panel. Section 5
contains a complete description of the various
programmable features, which options are available and
how they function. The Programming Worksheets (pages
25-33) should be filled out completely before attempting
to program the system.
Step 10 Testing the System
The panel must be thoroughly tested to ensure that all
features and functions are operating as programmed.
2.2 Terminal Descriptions
AC Terminals – AC (50Hz)
The panel requires a 16.5 volt, 40 VA transformer. Connect
the transformer to an unswitched AC source and connect
the transformer to these terminals.
Do not connect the transformer until all other wiring
is complete.
The panel must have a power line frequency of
50Hz.
Battery Connection
A 12V 4Ah rechargable gel-cell battery is used as a back up
source of power in the event of an AC power failure. The
battery also provides additional current when the panel’s
demands exceed the power output of the transformer, such
as when the panel is in alarm.
Do not connect the battery until all other wiring is
complete.
Connect the RED battery lead to the positive battery terminal;
connect the BLACK lead to negative.
Auxiliary Power Terminals – AUX+ and AUX-
These terminals provide up to 550 mA of additional current
DC for devices requiring power. Connect the positive
at 12 V
side of any device requiring power to the AUX+ terminal, the
negative side to AUX- (ground). The AUX output is protected.
This means that if too much current is drawn from these
terminals (such as a wiring short), the panel will temporarily
shut off the output until the problem is corrected.
Bell Output Terminals – BELL+ and BELL- (Section 3.4)
These terminals provide up to 700 mA of continuous current
at 12 V
DC for powering bells, sirens, strobes or other warning-
type equipment. Connect the positive side of any alarm
warning device to BELL+, the negative side to BELL–.
Please note that the Bell output is protected: if too much
current is drawn from these terminals (such as a wiring
short), the Bell fuse will open. Three Amps can be drawn for
short periods only.
The Bell output is supervised. If no alarm warning devices
are in use, connect a 1000 ohm resistor across BELL+ and
BELL– to prevent the panel from displaying a trouble
condition. For more information, please refer to Section 3.4
✱] [2] Trouble Display”).
(“[
The bell is programmed by default to terminate after four
minutes. The Bell Cutoff time can be adjusted in
programming section [02] (“System Times”).
KEYBUS Terminals – AUX+, AUX-, YEL, GRN (Section 2.3)
The KEYBUS is used by the panel to communicate with
modules and vice versa. Each module has four KEYBUS
terminals that must be connected to the four KEYBUS
terminals on the panel. For more information, see Section
2.3 (“KEYBUS Operation and Wiring”).
3
G E T T I N G S T A R T E D
Programmable Outputs – PGM1 and PGM2
Each PGM output is designed so
that when activated by the panel, the
terminal will switch to ground.
PGM2 can sink up to 50 mA of current
to activate LEDs or a small buzzer.
Connect the positive side of the LED
+AUX PGM1
RED
or buzzer to AUX+, the negative side
to PGM2. If more than 50 mA of
current are required, a relay must be
used. Please study PGM wiring in
the accompanying diagram.
PGM1 is a high current output which
COM NC
operates similar to PGM2. PGM1 is
used for high current output (300mA).
Zone Input Terminals – Z1 to Z6
Each detection device must be connected to a zone on the
control panel. We suggest that one detection device be
connected to each zone; wiring multiple detection devices
to a single zone, however, is possible. For zone wiring
specifics, please see Section 2.8 (“Zone Wiring”).
Telephone Connection Terminals – TIP, RING, T-1, R-1
If a telephone line is
required for central
station communication or
downloading, connect an
RJ-31X telephone jack in
the following manner:
• TIP - Green Wire incoming line from
RING TIP R-1
RED
GRN
EGND
T-1

PLUG
• RING - Red Wire telephone company
• R-1 - Grey Wire outgoing line to
• T-1 - Brown Wire house telephone(s)
Please ensure that all plugs and jacks meet the
correct dimension, tolerance and metallic plating
requirements.
For proper operation, no other telephone equipment
should be connected between the control panel and
the telephone company facilities.
Do not connect the alarm panel communicator to
telephone lines intended for use with a fax machine.
These lines may incorporate a voice filter which
disconnects the line if anything other than fax
signals are detected, resulting in incomplete
transmissions.
2.3 KEYBUS Operation and Wiring
The KEYBUS is used by the panel to communicate with all
connected modules and vice versa. The red (AUX+) and
black (AUX-) terminals are used to provide power, while the
yellow (YEL) and green (GRN) terminals are clock and data
respectively.
The four KEYBUS terminals of the panel must be
connected to the four KEYBUS terminals or wires of
all modules.

Other Devices
Please read the manufacturer’s literature carefully to
determine the maximum current requirements for each
device—during activation or alarm—and include the proper
values for loading calculations. Connected devices must
not exceed system capabilities during any possible
operational mode.
2.5 Keypad Assignment
There are eight available slots for keypads. LED keypads by
default are always assigned to slot 1; the LCD5500T is
always assigned to slot 8. Whereas the PC1575 LED keypad
must always be assigned to slot 1, the PC5506T and
DC)
4
G E T T I N G S T A R T E D
DOUBLE EOL CIRCUIT
1 NORMALLY CLOSED
LCD5500T keypads can each be assigned to a different slot
(1 to 8). Keypad enrollment is required since the panel must
know which slots are occupied in order to generate a fault
when a supervisory is not present.
How to Assign Keypads
Each keypad must be assigned one at a time. After
assigning all keypads, a supervisory reset should
be performed.
To assign a keypad to a slot, enter the following:
1. Enter Installer’s Programming.
2. Press [00] for Keypad Programming.
3. Press [0] for Slot Assignment.
4. Enter a two digit number (11-18) to specify which
supervisory slot the keypad will occupy.
Press the [#] key twice to exit programming. Continue this
procedure at each keypad until they have all been assigned
to the correct slot.
When using more than one LCD keypad, be sure
that only one is assigned to slot number 8.
2.6 Supervision
By default, all modules are supervised upon installation.
Supervision is enabled at all times so that the panel can
indicate a trouble if a module is removed from the system.
A connected module which does not show as being present
will appear as a trouble condition and the Trouble light on the
keypad will turn ON. This condition may be due to one or more
of the following reasons:
• the module is not connected to the KEYBUS
• there is a KEYBUS wiring problem
• the module is more than 1,000'/330m from the panel
• the module does not have enough power
For more information regarding module supervision troubles,
please refer to Section 3.4 (“[
✱] [2] Trouble Conditions”).
Modules will not be automatically supervised if
connected while in installers mode.
2.7 Removing Modules
The panel must be instructed to no longer supervise a module
being removed from the system. To remove the module,
disconnect it from the KEYBUS and reset the supervision
field by entering [92] in the installer’s programming. The
panel will be reset to recognize and supervise all existing
modules on the system.
2.8 Zone Wiring
For a complete description of the operation of all zone types,
please refer to Section 5.2 (“Zone Definitions”).
There are several different ways in which zones may be
wired, depending on which programming options have
been selected. Please refer to the following diagrams to
study each type of individually supervised zone wiring.
Any zone defined as Fire will automatically require a
single End of Line (EOL) resistor regardless of which
type of zone wiring supervision is selected. (See Section
5.2 “Zone Definitions.”) Reconfiguring the zone supervision from a non-default setting—from DEOL to EOL or
from NC to DEOL—may disable zones 1-6 while open or
in trouble. To prevent this situation, the system should be
powered down completely and powered up again.

Keypad Commands
SECTION3
The PC1580 alarm panel can be accessed, controlled and
completely programmed via any keypad on the system. The
LED keypad uses function and zone indicator lights to represent alarm functions and status. The LCD keypad provides a
written description on the liquid crystal display and uses
function indicator lights to communicate alarm status to the
user.
The following sections describe how to arm and disarm the
system from each type of keypad, and how to perform other
keypad functions.
3.1 Arming and Disarming
The system cannot be armed unless the Ready light is ON.
In order for the system to be in the Ready state, all protected
doors and windows must be secured and all movement in
areas covered by motion detectors must cease. When the
Ready light is ON, enter any valid access code. As each
digit is pressed, the keypad will beep. If the correct code is
entered when the system is not in the Ready state, the panel
will sound six quick beeps followed by a long two-second
beep to indicate that the system is not secured.
If an incorrect code is entered, the keypad will emit a steady
two second beep to indicate the invalid access code. When
the correct code is entered and the system is Ready, the
panel will emit six short beeps and the Armed light will turn
ON. Exit the premises through the designated entry/exit
door. For other methods of arming, please refer to section
✱] [0] Quick Exit” and “[✱] [9] Arming Without Entry
3.4 (“[
Delay”) and section 3.5 (“Function Keys”).
In an attempt to prevent false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault is
designed to notify the user of an improper exit when they arm
their system. If a non force-arming Delay 1 or Delay 2 type zone
is left open at the end of the exit delay, the entry delay will begin
immediately and the bell or siren will sound a steady alarm for
the entry delay period. At the end of the entry delay period, if
the system has not been disarmed it will go into alarm.
When you enter the premises through a designated entry/
exit door while the system is armed, the keypad will emit a
steady beep to remind you to disarm the system. Enter a
valid access code from any keypad to disarm the system. If
an error is made, press the [#] key and enter the code again.
When a correct code is entered, the Armed light will turn
OFF and the keypad will stop beeping. During the last 10
seconds of entry delay, the panel will pulse the keypad
beeper ON and OFF rapidly to warn you that the entry delay
is about to expire.
If an alarm occurred while the panel was armed, the Memory
light and the zone indicator lights corresponding to the
zones which went into the alarm will be flashing. Press the
[#] key to return the keypad to the Ready state.
3.2 Auto Bypass – Stay Arming
Stay arming allows the user to arm the system without
leaving the premises. All interior zones can be programmed
to be bypassed during Stay arming so that the user does not
have to bypass interior zones manually.
When the system is armed using a valid user code, if any
zones on the system have been programmed as Stay/Away
zones, the Bypass light will turn ON. The panel will then
monitor all zones programmed as Delay 1 and Delay 2
zones, such as designated entry/exit doors. If no delay type
zone is violated by the end of the exit delay, the panel will
bypass all Stay/Away type zones. The Bypass light will
remain ON to inform the user that the interior protection has
been automatically bypassed by the panel. If a delay zone
is violated during the exit delay, the Stay/Away zones will be
active after the exit delay expires.
The user can add the Stay/Away zones back into the system
at any time by entering the [
section 3.4 “[
Zones”).
Stay arming can also be initiated by pressing and holding
the Stay function key for two seconds on the PC5506T and
LCD5500T keypads, if programmed by the installer. For
more information regarding Stay arming, please see section
3.5 (“Function Keys”).
✱] [1] Bypassing and Reactivating Stay/Away
✱] [1] keypad command (see
3.3 Automatic Arming
The system can be programmed to Auto-Arm at a specific
time every day if it is in the disarmed condition.
In order for the Auto-Arm function to work properly, the
correct Time of Day must be programmed. To program the
clock and Auto-Arm times, see Section 3.4 ([
Functions)
When the system’s internal clock matches the Auto-Arm
Time, the panel will check the system status. If armed, the
panel will do nothing until the next day at the Auto-Arm
Time, when it will check the system again. If disarmed, the
panel will sound the buzzer of all keypads for one minute. If
a valid User Code is entered, the Auto-Arming will be
aborted.
If no code is entered, the panel will Auto-Arm. If a zone is
violated, the panel will transmit a Partial Closing Reporting
Code – if programmed – to indicate to the central station that
the system is not secure. If the zone is restored, the panel
will add the zone back into the system (see Section 5.7
“Communicator – Reporting Codes”).
3.4 [✱] Commands
The [✱] key commands provide an easy way for the user to
access basic system programming – such as entering user

Program Descriptions
SECTION5
The following section explains the operation of all programmable
features and options and provides a summary of all corresponding
programming locations.
5.1 Programming Security Codes
There are three codes which can be programmed by the
installer in the Installer’s Programming function: the Master
Code, a Second Master Code, and the Installer’s Code. All
other access codes can be programmed through the [
command (see Section 3.4).
The Master Code can also be programmed by the user as
access code (1). If the Master Code Not Changeable
option is enabled, the System Master Code can only be
changed by the Installer.
User codes can arm and disarm the system. By selecting
the No Code Required for Bypassing option, each user
code can also have the ability to bypass zones without
entering the Master Code.
If the Sixth Code is Duress Code option is enabled, the
sixth code can be programmed by the user as a Duress
Code which will send a Duress Reporting Code to the
central station when entered.
If the 6-Digit User Access Codes option is enabled, all the
access codes may be programmed with six digits instead of
four, with the exception of the Panel ID code and the
Downloading Access Code.
Installer’s Code ....................................................... Section [03]
Master Code............................................................ Section [04]
Second Master Code.............................................. Section [05]
Master Code Not Changeable ............. Section [09], option [1]
No Code Required for Bypassing........Section [09], option [2]
Sixth Code is Duress Code..................Section [09], option [3]
6-Digit User Access Codes .................. Section [81], option [4]
When enabling 6-digit access codes, if the master
code is anything other than default, the last two
digits will be [00].
✱] [5]
5.2 Zone Definitions
These sections will allow you to select how each of the 6
zones will operate. Each zone requires a two digit entry. In
addition to zone definitions, six different attributes may be
programmed by zone (see Section 5.3 – “Zone Attributes”).
[00] Null Zone
The zone is vacant. Unused zones should be programmed
as Null zones.
[01] Delay 1
This zone type, normally used for entry/exit doors, can be
violated during the exit delay time without causing an alarm.
Once the exit delay has expired, opening the zone will start
the entry delay timer. During the entry delay time, the
keypad buzzer will sound steadily to advise the user that the
system should be disarmed. If the panel is disarmed before
the entry time expires, no alarm will be generated.
[02] Delay 2
The Delay 2 entry delay time can be set independent of Delay
1 in programming section [02] (System Times).
[03] Instant Zone
This zone type will cause an instant alarm if it is violated
when the panel is armed. Typically, this zone is used for
windows, patio doors or other perimeter zones.
[04] Interior Zone
This zone will not cause an alarm if violated during the entry
delay. If the zone is violated before the entry delay has
begun, it will cause an instant alarm. Typically, this zone is
used for interior protection devices, such as motion detectors.
[05] Interior Stay/Away Zone
This zone type works similar to the Interior zone type except
that it will be automatically bypassed under the following
conditions:
• When the panel is armed in the Stay Mode (see Section
3.5 – “Function Keys”).
• When the panel is armed without entry delay (see
Section 3.4 – “[✱] [9] Arming Without Entry Delay”).
• When the panel is armed with a user code and a Delay
type zone is NOT tripped during the exit delay.
The automatic bypass prevents the user from having to
manually bypass interior type zones when arming at home.
This zone is typically used for interior protection devices,
such as motion detectors.
[06] Delay Stay/Away Zone
This zone type will operate similar to Interior Stay/Away zones
except that it will always provide an entry delay. Typically, this
zone is used for interior protection devices, such as motion
detectors. This zone option will help prevent false alarms
since it always provides an entry delay time for the user to turn
off the panel.
[07] Delayed 24 Hour Fire Zone
When this zone is violated, the alarm output will be
immediately activated but the communicator will be delayed
for 30 seconds. If the user presses any key on any keypad
during this delay, the alarm output and the communicator
will be delayed an additional 90 seconds, giving the user
time to correct the problem. If the zone is still violated after
the 90 second delay, the panel will sound the alarm ouput
and delay the communicator for 30 seconds.
If the user does not press a key during the 30 second delay,
the alarm output will latch and the panel will communicate
the alarm to the central station. The alarm will sound for the
Bell Cutoff time programmed in Section [02] (“System
Times”).
If a second Fire type zone is violated or if the Fire
keys are pressed during the delay period, the panel
will latch the alarm output and will immediately
communicate the alarm.
A violated Fire zone will be displayed on all keypads and
can be delayed at any keypad. Typically this zone is used
for latching smoke detectors.
[08] Standard 24 Hour Fire Zone
When this zone is violated, the panel will immediately latch
the alarm output and communicate to the central station.
The alarm will sound for the Bell Cutoff time programmed in
Section [02] (“System Times”).
A violated Fire zone will be displayed on all keypads.
Typically this zone is used for pull stations.
