Step 3 Wiring the Keybus
Wire the Keybus to each of the modules following the guidelines provided in Section 2.4.
Step 4 Assigning Zones to Zone Expanders
If zone expander modules are being used the modules must
be configured so the panel knows which zones are assigned
to each expander. Follow the guideline provided in Section
2.6 to assign zones to expanders.
Step 5 Zone Wiring
Power down the control panel and complete all zone wiring.
Follow the guidelines provided in section 2.10 to connect
zones using normally closed loops, single EOL resistor, double EOL resistors, Fire zones and Keyswitch Arming zones.
Step 6 Completing Wiring
Complete all other wiring including bells or sirens, telephone
line connections, ground connections or any other wiring
necessary. Follow the guidelines provided in section 2.2 “Terminal Descriptions”.
Step 7 Power up the Control Panel
Once all zone and Keybus wiring is complete, power up the
control panel.
NOTE:
nected.
Step 8 Keypad Assignment
Keypads must be assigned to different slots to be properly
supervised. Follow the guideline provided in section 2.7 to
assign keypads.
Step 9 Confirming Module 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.
To confirm that each module is properly supervised, follow
the guidelines provided in section 2.8.
Step 10 Programming the System
Section 4.0 provides a complete description of how to program the panel. Section 5.0 contains complete descriptions
of the various programmable features, what options are
available and how the options function. The Programming

Worksheets should be filled out completely before attempting to program the system.
Step 11 Testing the System
Test the panel completely to ensure that all features and
functions are operating as programmed.
2.2 Terminal Descriptions
AC Power Terminals
The panel requires a 16.5V, 40VA transformer. Connect the
transformer to these terminals.
The panel can be programmed to accept a power line frequency of either 50Hz AC or 60Hz AC in programming section [701], option [1].
NOTE:
is complete.
Battery Connection
The battery is used to provide back up power in the event of
an AC power failure and to provide additional current when
the panel demands exceed the power output of the transformer, such as when the panel is in alarm.
NOTE: Do not connect the battery until all other wiring is
complete.
Connect the RED battery lead to the positive of the battery,
the BLACK battery lead to the negative.
The High Current Charge/Standard Battery Charge
option (section [701], option [7]) allows you to choose
between a high current battery charge and the standard battery charge rate.

positive side of any device requiring power to the AUX+ terminal, the negative side to GND. The AUX output is protected; if too much current is drawn from these terminals
(wiring short) the panel will temporarily shut off the output,
until the problem is corrected.
NOTE:
capacity for 24-hour standby is 470mA.
Bell Output Terminals - BELL+ and BELL-
These terminals provide up to 2A of current at 12VDC (with
standby battery; 700 mA continuous) 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–. The BELL output is protected; if too
much current is drawn from these terminals (wiring short)
the BELL PTC will open.
The Bell output is supervised. If no alarm warning device is
being used connect a 1K
BELL– to prevent the panel from displaying a Bell Trouble
condition.

Keybus Terminals - RED, BLK, YEL, GRN
The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with modules and by modules to communicate with the panel. Each
module has four Keybus terminals that must be connected to
the four Keybus terminals on the panel.
Programmable Outputs - PGM1 to PGM4
Each PGM output is designed so that when activated by the
panel, the terminal will switch to ground
PGM1, PGM3, and PGM4 can each sink up to 50 mA of current. These PGMs can be used to activate LEDs or a small
buzzer. Connect the positive side of the LED or buzzer to
AUX+, the negative side to the PGM.
PGM2 is a high current output (300mA) and operates similarly to PGM1. If more than 300 mA of current is required, a
relay must be used. Refer to the diagram. PGM2 can also be
configured as an input.
A minimum ¼” (6.4mm) separation must be maintained at all
points between power limited and non-power limited wiring
and connections.

telephone equipment connected between the control panel
and the telephone company facilities.
NOTE: 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 Wire Routing for Power & Non-Power Limited
All wiring entry points are designated by the arrows. All circuits are classified UL installation power limited except for
the battery leads which are not power limited.
NOTE:
Wire entry for power limited wiring must be separated by a different entry access from non-power limited wiring.
2.4 Keybus Operation and Wiring
The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with all
modules connected and by the modules to talk to the panel.
The RED and BLK terminals are used to provide power while
YEL and GRN are clock and data.
The 4 Keybus terminals of the panel must be connected to
the 4 Keybus terminals or wires of all modules.
The following conditions apply:
• Keybus should be run with minimum 22 gauge quad
(0.5mm), two pair twisted preferred
• The modules can be home run to the panel, connected in
series or can be T-tapped
• Any module can be connected anywhere along the Keybus, you do not need a separate Keybus wire run for keypads, zone expanders etc.
• No module can be more than 1,000'/305m (in wire length)
from the panel
NOTE:
Shielded wire should not be used for Keybus wiring.
Example of Keybus Wiring
Module (A) is wired correctly
as it is within 1,000'/305m of
the panel, in wire distance.
Module (B) is wired correctly
as it is within 1,000'/305m of
the panel, in wire distance.
Module (C) is NOT wired correctly as it is further than
1,000'/305m from the panel, in wire distance.

2.6 Assigning Zones to Zone Expanders
The main panel contains zones 1 to 8. Additional zone
expanders may be added to increase the number of zones
on the system. Each zone expander consists of one group of
8 zones. Each module must be set to assign the specific
zones to the expander. To do this, set the jumpers located on
the expander to the proper settings (see chart below).
NOTE:
PC5108 v1.0 and lower modules can only support
the first 32 zones on the PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 system.
PC5108 v1.0 and lower, PC5700 enrolls as two expander
modules.
NOTE: Do not use PC5108 v1.0 and v2.0 simultaneously on
the same PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 panel.
NOTE: Before a zone expander will work properly, you must
set the jumpers so the panel can determine the correct zone
assignment.
The following are jumper settings for different zone assignments for PC5108 v2.0 modules. If you need to enroll
PC5108 v1.0 or PC5700 modules, refer to the appropriate
module Installation Sheet for the correct jumper settings.

The following is a diagram of the PC5108 zone expander
module and where the jumper switches are located. Refer to
the PC5108 Installation Instruction sheet for the module for
more information.
NOTE:
Only jumpers J1, J2, and J3 determine the zone
assignment for the module.
2.7 Keypad Assignment
There are 8 available slots for keypads. LED and ICON keypads by default are assigned to slot 1. LCD keypads are
assigned by default to slot 8. Keypads can each be assigned
to a different slot (1 to 8) which offers two advantages. The
panel can supervise the keypad connection to indicate a
trouble condition if it is removed. Also keypads can be
assigned to operate on a specific partition, or to operate as a
global keypad.
How to Assign Keypads

If a module is connected but does not show as being
present, it may be due to any of the following reasons:
• it is not connected to the Keybus
• there is a Keybus wiring problem
• the module is more than 1,000'/305m from the panel
• the module does not have enough power
• the wireless receiver does not have any devices added
NOTE:
Module supervision will not display correctly at an
LCD5500Z v2.x and lower keypad.
2.9 Removing Modules
If a module is no longer required on the system, the panel
must be told to stop supervising the module. To do this:
1. Power down the panel by removing the backup battery
and AC.
2. Remove the module from the Keybus.
3. Power up the panel by connecting the backup battery
and AC.
4. Press [*][8][Installer Code] to enter Installer Programming.
5. Press [902] to enable supervision. The panel will automatically search for all modules connected to the system
for the next 60 seconds. Do not perform any other operations during this 60 second period.
6. Once the search is complete enter section [903] to confirm that the correct modules are supervised on the system.
2.10 Zone Wiring
For a complete description of the operation of all zone types,
see section 5.2 ’Basic Programming’ section [001]-[004].
The panel can be programmed to supervise normally closed,

Assigning Keypad Zones
When using keypad zone inputs, each input used must be
assigned a zone number in Installer’s Programming.
First, ensure that you have enrolled all installed keypads into
the desired slots (see section 2.7 ’Keypad Assignment’ ) to
assign the keypad to a slot.
Next, enter programming section [020] to assign the zones.
There are eight programming locations in this section, one
for each keypad slot. Enter a 2-digit zone number for each of
the keypad zones. This number must be entered in the location corresponding to the keypad to which each zone is connected.
NOTE:
to 8, the corresponding zone cannot be used on the main
control panel.
Once the keypad zones are assigned, you must also program zone definitions and zone attributes (see Section 5.2
Basic Programming PWS Sect 3 [001]-[004] and Section 5.3

Section 3: How to Program
The following section of the manual describes how to enter Installer Programming and how to program the various sections.
NOTE: It is extremely important that you read the following section of the manual to completely understand how to program the panel.
3.1 How to Enter Installer Programming
Installer Programming is used to program all communicator
and panel options. The Installer Code is [5555] at default,
but should be changed to prevent unauthorized access to
programming.
NOTE: Once the Installer’s Mode is exited, the system will
reset. This will take 15 seconds. Do not attempt to perform any system function during this reset period. In addition, all outputs will return to their normal, deactivated
state (or activated if inverted).
NOTE: EN installations will restrict access to the Master code section [007] in installers programming. The
Installer may view the Master Code via DLS.
LED Keypad
Step 1: From any keypad enter [*][8][Installer Code].
• The ‘Program’ light will flash to indicate you are in pro-
• The ‘Armed’ light will turn on to indicate the panel is
Step 2: Enter the 3 digit Section number you want to program.
• The Armed light will turn off
• The Ready light will turn on to indicate the panel is ready
NOTE: If the 3 digit section number entered is not valid or
the module that pertains to the Section is not present, the
keypad will sound a 2 second error tone.
LCD Keypad
Step 1: From any keypad enter [*][8][Installer Code].
The Keypad will display ‘Enter Section’ followed by three
dashes.
Step 2: Enter the 3 digit Section number you want to program. The keypad will now display information for the section
entered.
When the Ready light is ON the panel is waiting for the information to be programmed for the selected Section. Enter the
information written in the boxes for the Section found in the
Programming Worksheets.
If a digit is entered for each program box in a Section the
panel will automatically exit from the Section. It will turn OFF
the Ready light and turn the Armed light back ON.
You can also press the [#] key to exit a Section before entering data for every box. This is handy if you only need to
change the first few program boxes. All other locations in the
Section will remain unchanged. If the [#] key is pressed the
panel will turn OFF the Ready light, turn ON the Armed light
and exit you from the Section.
3.3 Programming Hexadecimal Data
On occasion, hexadecimal (HEX) digits may be required. To
program a HEX digit press the [*] key. The panel will enter
HEX programming and Ready light will begin to flash.
The following table indicates which number should be
pressed to enter the corresponding HEX digit:
1 = A2 = B3 = C4 = D5 = E6 = F
After the correct HEX digit is entered the Ready light will
continue to flash. If another HEX digit is required press the
corresponding number. If a decimal digit is required press
the [*] key again. The Ready light will turn on solid and the
panel will return to regular decimal programming.
WWW.DIYALARMFORUM.COM
11
NOTE: It is important to watch the Ready light. If the
light is flashing any number you enter will be programmed as the HEX equivalent.
Example: To enter ‘C1’ for a closing by user 1, you would
enter [*] [3] [*], [1]
[*] to enter Hexadecimal mode (Ready light flashes)
[3] to enter C
[*] to return to decimal mode (Ready light is solid)
[1] to enter digit 1
If you enter information into a section and make a mistake,
press the [#] key to exit the section. Select that section again
and re-enter the information correctly.
If you are using a pulse communications format, a decimal
zero [0] does not transmit. Programming a zero [0] tells the
panel not to send any pulses for that digit. Decimal zero [0] is
a filler digit. To make a zero [0] transmit, it must be programmed as a Hexadecimal ‘A’.
Example: for the three digit account number ‘403’, you would
enter [4], [*] [1] [*] [3], [0].
[4] to enter the digit 4
[*] to enter Hexadecimal mode (Ready light flashes)
[1] to enter A
[*] to return to decimal mode (Ready light is solid)
[3] to enter the digit 3
[0] to enter the digit 0 as a filler digit.
3.4 Programming Toggle Options
Some Sections contain several toggle options. The panel will
use zone lights 1 through 8 to indicate if the different options
are enabled or disabled. Refer to the Programming Worksheets to determine what each option represents and
whether the light should be ON or OFF for your application.
Press the number corresponding to the option to toggle the
light ON or OFF.
Once all the toggle options have been selected correctly
press the [#] key to exit the Section and save the changes.
The panel will turn off the Ready light and turn on the Armed
light.
3.5 Viewing Programming
LED and ICON Keypads
Any programming section can be viewed from an LED or
ICON keypad. When a programming section is entered, the
keypad will immediately display the first digit of information
programmed in that section.
The keypad displays the information using a binary format,
according to the following chart:
See Hex data entry instructions
Press any of the Emergency Keys (Fire, Auxiliary or Panic)
to advance to the next digit.
When all the digits in a section have been viewed, the panel
will exit the section: the Ready Light will turn OFF, and the
Armed light will turn ON, waiting for the next three-digit programming section number to be entered.
Press the [#] key to exit the section.
LCD Keypad
When a programming section is entered, the keypad will
immediately display all the information programmed in that
section. Use the arrow keys (< >) to scroll through the data
being displayed. To exit the section, scroll past the end of the
data displayed, or press the [#] key.
Section 4: Keypad Commands
Use any system keypad to enter commands, or to program the PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 security 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 PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 User’sGuide provides basic directions for arming and disarming the system, bypassing zones and performing user functions from the keypads. The following sections provide additional details on these functions.
4.1 Arming and Disarming
Arming
The system cannot be armed unless the ‘Ready’ light is on.
If the ‘Ready’ light is not on, ensure all protected doors and
windows are secure and stop movement in areas covered by
motion detectors.
When the ‘Ready’ light is on, enter a valid access code. As
each digit is pressed the keypad will beep. If an incorrect
code is entered, the keypad will emit a steady 2 second beep
to indicate that the code was not correct. If the code is correct but the ‘Ready’ light was not on, the panel will beep six
times rapidly followed by a long two second beep to indicate
the system was not ready.
When the correct code is entered and the system is ready,
the panel beeps six times rapidly, and the ‘Armed’ light turns
on. The panel begins counting down the exit delay. If the
Audible Exit Delay option is enabled, the keypad will beep
every second until the exit delay expires. The keypad will
beep rapidly for the last 10 seconds of exit delay to warn the
user the system is about to arm. Exit the premises through
the designated entry/exit door before the exit delay expires.
Users can restart the exit delay while it is counting down by
pressing the Away key. The system will not log the user who
re-started the exit delay, unless the Quick Arming Dis-abled/Function Keys Require Code option is turned on
(section [015], option [4]).
NOTE:
entry delay ([*][9]), pressing the Away key will not restart an
exit delay.
NOTE: If the system is armed while an alarm is in memory,
the mode cannot be changed.
Other methods of arming are available (See section “[*][0]
Quick Arm”, “[*][9] Arming without Entry Delay”, and section
4.4 “Function Keys”).
NOTE:
called Audible Exit Fault (see Section [013], option 6 for more
information).
NOTE: For SKAFOR Installations, the keypad will sound a
steady tone for 5 seconds when the system is armed while a
trouble is present. Exit delay should continue normally (silent
or audible) after 5 seconds.
Stay and Away Arming
When a user arms the system with an access code, if any
zones on the system have been programmed as Stay/Away,
the panel will immediately turn on the ‘Bypass’ light. The
panel will then monitor all zones programmed as Delay 1
and Delay 2. If no delay type zone is violated by the end of
the exit delay (e.g. nobody leaves through the entry/exit
door), the panel will bypass all Stay/Away type zones. The
panel is now “Stay” armed. The ‘Bypass’ light will remain on
to inform the home owner that the interior protection is
bypassed. This is a convenience for users that want to arm
the panel while at home. Using this method, users do not
have to bypass the interior zones manually.
Users can add Stay/Away zones back into the system at any
time by entering [*][1] (see section ’[*][1] Zone Bypassing’ ),
or by using the Away button.
If the system has been Stay armed, or armed with no
The PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 has a built-in feature
If a delay zone is violated during the exit delay (e.g. somebody leaves through the designated entry/exit door), all
zones will be active after the exit delay expires. The panel is
now “Away” armed. The Bypass light on the keypad will be
off. Other methods of Stay and Away arming are available
(see section 4.3 ’Function Keys’ ).
NOTE:
Stay Arming
When a user arms the system by pressing the Stay button, if
any zones on the system have been programmed as Stay/
Away, the panel will immediately turn on the ‘Bypass’ light.
After the exit delay the panel will bypass all Stay/Away type
zones. The panel is now “Stay” armed. The ‘Bypass’ light will
remain on to inform the home owner that the interior protection is bypassed. This is a convenience for users that want to
arm the panel while at home. Using this method, users do
not have to bypass the interior zones manually.
Users can add Stay/Away zones back into the system at any
time by entering [*][1] (see section ’[*][1] Zone Bypassing’ ),
or by using the Away button.
Away Arming
When a user arms the system by pressing the Away button,
the panel will begin the exit delay. All zones will be active
after the exit delay expires. The panel is now “Away” armed.
The Bypass light on the keypad will be off.
Using the Away Button While Stay Armed
If a partition is armed in Stay mode and a user wishes to
leave the premises without having to disarm and re-arm the
system, they may press the Away button. The system will
begin counting the standard exit delay, allowing the user to
leave without actually disarming. The panel will log “Armed
in Away Mode” upon completion of the Exit Delay. This feature is useful for users with Wireless Keys with Stay/Away
buttons, and who wish to have their panel armed at all times.
Using the Stay Button While Away Armed
Pressing the Stay key while a partition is Away armed will
begin the Exit Delay again. The panel will log “Armed in Stay
Mode”. This feature is useful for users with Wireless Keys

Disarming
To disarm the panel, enter the premises through the designated entry/exit door. The keypad will emit a steady beep to
warn that you must disarm the system. During the last 10
seconds of entry delay the panel will pulse the keypad
beeper on and off rapidly to warn the entry delay is about to
expire.
Enter a valid Access Code at the keypad. If an error is made,
re-enter the code correctly. When a correct code is entered
the keypad will turn off the ‘Armed’ light and stop the keypad
buzzer.
If an alarm occurred while the panel was armed the ‘Memory’ light and the zones which caused the alarm will be flashing. Press the [#] key to return the keypad to the Ready

Event Buffer (Event Log)
The panel will store the last 500 events that have occurred
on the system. Each event will contain the time, date, partition and the event itself along with the zone number, access
code number or any other information pertaining to the
event.
If the Event Buffer Follows Swinger Shutdown feature is
enabled (Section [013], option 7) the event buffer will not
store events after the swinger shutdown level has been
reached. This will prevent the panel from overwriting the
entire buffer if a problem exists. The event buffer can be
viewed three different ways. It can be viewed through an
LCD keypad, printed on-site using the PC5400 printer module or it can be uploaded through the DLS software.
