General
System Overview
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 –
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.
System Overview (cont’d)

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).

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.

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.

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 –
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.
Security Codes and Authority Levels
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.

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 #
2. System returns to normal mode.

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.

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.
