Aux Power Supervision Connections

To supervise aux power:

1. Use the Trigger Module terminals for ground
and +12V connections (instead of main board
terminals 4 and 5). See Trigger Module and
On-Board Triggers section (page 2-13) for
instructions on mounting the Trigger Module.

2. Connect the SUPV terminal to a zone (+)
terminal.

3. Program that zone as a configurable zone type
programmed as a 24-hour zone and with the
desired report code (CID code 312 is
recommended).

Wiring the AC Transformer

Transformer:

Connect the Transformer to terminals 1 and 2 on the
control board. See wiring table at right for wire size to
use.

Use wired-in or plug-in 220VAC transformer, with

16.5VAC, 25VA output.

VISTA-48A: XF1 Model 60844CK, Ap11 V/99090/E148-36

Using Powerline Carrier (X-10) Devices

If using Powerline Carrier (X-10) devices, a separate
powerline modulator must be used, which is connected to
the supplied Trigger Module via an SA4120XM-1 cable.
See your local distributor for available modulators and
connecting cable.

Notes

• Use caution when wiring the transformer to the
control to guard against blowing the transformer
fuse (the fuse is non-replaceable).

• Wiring to the AC transformer must not exceed
76m using 1.2mm O.D. wire. The voltage reading
between terminals 1 and 2 of the control must
not fall below 16.5VAC or an “AC LOSS”
message will be displayed.

• Do not connect to AC mains power while making
any wiring connections to the control. As a safety
precaution, always power down the control when
making such connections.

Mounting and Wiring the Control

Backup Battery

1. Place the 12-volt backup battery in the cabinet.

2. After all connections to the control are completed and
AC mains power has been applied, connect the red and
black flying leads on the control board to the battery.
Do not attach these leads to the battery terminals
until all connections are completed.

Battery Saver Feature: The battery will disconnect
from the system after its voltage decreases below 9VDC.
This assists the control panel in recharging the battery
when AC is restored.

Earth Ground

Metal Cold Water Pipe or Earth Ground Rod:

Use a non-corrosive metal strap (copper is
recommended) firmly secured to the pipe/rod to which
the ground lead is electrically connected and secured.

Notes

IMPORTANT: The panel will not power up
initially on battery power only. You must plug the
transformer in first, and then connect the battery.

Operating on Battery Power Alone:

To operate the control on battery power only,
connect a jumper between the negative (–) battery
terminal and control PCB terminal 4 (– aux
power).

Notes

• This product has been designed and tested to ensure
its resistance to damage from generally expected
levels of lightning and electrical discharge, and does
not normally require an earth ground.

• If an earth ground is desired for additional
protection in areas of severe electrical activity,
terminal 25 on the control board, or the cabinet,
may be used as the ground connection point. The
examples of good earth grounds listed at the left are
available at some installations.

Installation Instructions

Basic Wired Zones

Normally Open Zones/Normally Open EOLR Zones

1. Connect open circuit devices in parallel across the
loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR across the
loop wires at the last device.

2. Enable normally open/EOLR zones using Zone
Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt.

Normally Closed Zones/Normally Closed EOLR Zones

1. Connect closed circuit devices in series in the high (+)
side of the loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR in
series following the last device.

2. Enable normally closed/EOLR zones using Zone
Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt..

Double-Balanced: Connections as shown (resistors
provided for one device in selected models); maximum of 8
sensors on each double-balanced zone.

IMPORTANT: Double-balanced zones provide unique
tamper signalling on the same 2 wires used for alarm
signalling, and should be used as burglary or emergency
zones only. Do not use double-balanced zones as fire
zones.

Zone Doubling: Connections as shown (resistors
provided).

Smoke Detectors

4-Wire Smoke Detectors

Connect 4-wire smoke detectors (up to 16, depending

on detector current draw) to any zone from 1-8 as
shown on the next page. This control does not
automatically reset power to 4-wire smoke detector
zones, so you must use a relay (e.g., 4204, 4229), or
on-board trigger 17 to reset power (also required for
fire verification). Do this by programming the
designated relay/trigger as zone type 54 (fire zone
reset); see On-Board Trigger section for other
information.

Notes

• EOLR: If the EOLR is not at the end of the loop,

the zone is not properly supervised and the system
may not respond to an “open” on the zone.

• Zone 1 is intended only for EOLR usage.

Zone Doubling:

This feature provides two unique zone
identifications for normally closed sensors
connected to each basic wired zone (but does not
increase the total number of zones supported by
the control). Do not use zone doubling for fire
zones. If enabled (Zone Programming mode,
“Hardwire Type” prompt, option “3”), basic wired
zones are automatically paired as follows:

Notes

•••• Fire Verification (zone type 16): The control

panel will “verify” a fire alarm by resetting the
smoke detectors after the first alarm trigger, and
then waiting 90 seconds for a second alarm
trigger. If the smoke detector does not trigger
again, the control will disregard the first trigger,
and no alarm signal will occur. This feature
eliminates false alarms from smoke detectors
due to electrical or physical transients.

• Maximum current for trigger 17 output for 4­wire smoke detectors is 300mA.

between the panel and receiver is interrupted, or i
no valid RF signals from at least one supervised
transmitter are received within 12 hours.

• Only one receiver can be installed in a system.

If the receiver is mounted remotely:

• Place the RF receiver in a high, centrally located
area for best reception.

• Do not locate the receiver or transmitters on or
near metal objects. This will decrease range
and/or block transmissions.

• Do not locate the RF receiver in an area of high
RF interference (indicated by frequent or
prolonged lighting of the LED in the receiver;
random flicker is OK).

• Do not locate RF receiver closer than 3m from
any keypads to avoid interference from the
microprocessors in those units.

Installing a 5800TM Module

1. Mount the 5800TM next to the RF receiver (between
one and two feet from the receiver’s antennas) using
its accompanying mounting bracket. Do not install
within the control cabinet.

2. Connect the 5800TM to the control panel’s keypad
connection terminals as shown on the Summary of
Connections diagram and set to address 28.

Installing the Transmitters

1. To be sure reception of the transmitter's signal at the
proposed mounting location is adequate, perform a
Go/No Go Test (see the Testing the System section).

2. Install transmitters in accordance with the
instructions provided with each.

3. Set 5827, 5827BD, 5804BD wireless keypads to the
programmed House ID (field *24), using its DIP
switches (5827) or follow the instructions provided
with the device.

Notes

• Use this module only in 345Hz RF systems and if
you are using one or more wireless bi-directional
keypads or keyfob; 5800TM is not necessary if
using a Transceiver (e.g., 5883).

• The 5800TM must be set to address 28 (cut red­W1 jumper).

• The 5800TM can be used in partition 1 only.

• For additional information regarding the

5800TM, refer to the 5800TM’s instructions.

Notes

• Refer to the table of compatible devices at the
back of this manual.

• Supervised transmitters† send check-in signals to
the receiver at 70-90 minute intervals. If at least
one check-in message is not received from each
transmitter within a 12-hour period, the “missing”
transmitter number(s) and “CHECK” is displayed.

†

Hand-held transmitters (e.g., 5802, 5802CP, 5804,

5804BD, 5827, 5827BD) do not send check-in signals.

Installation Instructions

Transmitter Battery Life

• See Wireless Transmitter paragraph in the Limitations of This Alarm System statement located at the end
of this manual for information on transmitter battery life.

• Some transmitters (e.g., 5802 and 5802CP) contain long-life but non-replaceable batteries, and no battery
installation is required. At the end of their life, the complete unit must be replaced (and a new serial number
enrolled by the control).

• Button-type transmitters (such as 5801, 5802, and 5802CP) should be periodically tested for battery life.

• The 5802MN, 5802MN2, and 5804 Button Transmitters have replaceable batteries.

Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until you are ready to enroll during system programming.
After enrolling, batteries need not be removed.

Installing a Keyswitch

1. Connect the 4146 keyswitch's normally open
momentary switch to a zone’s terminals (zones 2-8).
Remove the 2000 ohm EOL resistor if connected
across the selected zone.

2. Using a standard keypad cable as shown:
Connect the yellow and white keyswitch wires to
trigger connector pin 3 (+12V).

Connect the Red and Green LED wires to the

appropriate output 17/output 18 trigger connector
pins.

3. Connect a 2000 ohm EOL resistor across the
momentary switch.

4. You can wire an optional closed-circuit tamper switch
(model 112) in series with the zone. If the switchplate
is then removed from the wall, the tamper will open,
disabling keyswitch operation until the system is
next disarmed from the keypad.

If the tamper is opened when the system is armed, an

alarm will occur.

Notes

• Use 4146 Keyswitch or any N.O. keyswitch.

• Use only one keyswitch per partition.

• If using a keyswitch in more than one partition,

you must use relays (not the on-board triggers)
for the Red/Green LED functions (step 2).

• When using a keyswitch, the zone it is connected
to is no longer available for use as a protective
zone.

• Use *56 Menu mode to program the keyswitch
zone and assign it zone type 77.

• Use *80 Menu mode to program the LED
functions: program outputs 17 and 18 for system
operation zone type 78 (red LED) and 79 (green
LED) as appropriate (see Output Device
Programming section).

(orient the Trigger Module as shown on the
Summary of Connections diagram), then press down
firmly until the Trigger Module’s standoffs are
seated on the main PC board.

Notes

• The Trigger module (Trigger-G) provides
supervision of auxiliary power and trigger
power, and provides connections for the two
onboard triggers.

• There are two on-board triggers that can be
used to activate output devices.

• These outputs are normally high, and go low
upon programmed condition.

• The outputs can be programmed for inverted
operation (normally low, go high) using *79
Menu mode.

• Program these triggers using *80/*81 Menu
modes as you would for any other relay output.

• When using these outputs, note:

pin 1 = output number 17 (trigger 1):
15 ohms to ground when closed

(output low), open when off (output
high, normal default); can be used to
reset smoke detector power (must set
“output normal low = yes” in *79

Programming Overview

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

About Programming

You can program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual

installation. Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer’s office/home, using an
IBM compatible personal computer, a CIA/CIA-EU modem, and Compass downloading software.

The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system:

Programming Mode… Used to …

Data Field Programming Program basic data fields used for setting the various system options.

Most of the data fields in this system have been programmed for specific default
values. However, some fields must be programmed for each particular installation
to establish its specific alarm and reporting features.

∗56 Zone Programming Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial numbers

for RF transmitters.

∗57 Function Key Programming Program each of the four function keys to perform one of several system functions.

∗58 Zone Programming Assign zone attributes similar to ∗56 mode, but provides a faster

(Expert Mode) programming procedure and is intended for those more experienced in
programming controls of this type.

∗79 Output Device Mapping Assign device addresses used by 4229/4204 Relay modules or 6164 keypad and

map specific relays and device outputs, and assign unit codes for Powerline
Carrier devices

∗80 Output Definitions Define up to 48 output definitions which can control the output relays mapped

using *79 Output Device Mapping mode.

∗81 Zone List Programming Create Zone Lists for relay/powerline carrier zones, chime zones, night-stay, exit

route zones, final exit door zone, and pager zones.

∗82 Alpha Programming Create alpha descriptors for easy zone identification.

Scheduling Mode (code + [#] +64) Create schedules to automate various system functions or determine user access.

Zones and Partitions

Each protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming

mode or *58 Expert Programming mode. Refer to those sections for detailed procedures.

The system can control three independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by

independent users, if desired.

Partitioning involves simply assigning zones to one of the three partitions during zone programming:

• The user’s partition number can be displayed on keypads by enabling data field *198.

• The system, by default, automatically distributes users among the three partitions.

• The master user can change the user number distributions.

• Zones can also be assigned to a common area partition if partition 3 is so designated, which is an

area shared by users of the other two partitions (such as a lobby in a building).

• Common area partition allows either of the independent partitions to arm, while leaving the
common area partition disarmed for access into the other partition.

• The following describes the functioning of the common area partition, if used:

-- The common area sounds and reports alarms only when both the other partitions are armed. If
only one partition is armed, the system ignores faults in the common area.

-- Either partition may arm its system if the common area is faulted, but once armed, the other
partition will not be able to arm unless the common area zones are first bypassed or their faults
are corrected.

-- Faults in the common area are displayed on common area keypads, and will also appear on
another partition’s keypad when that partition is armed.

• Either partition can clear and restore the common area after an alarm.

To enable keypads:

1. Set desired address at keypad (refer to keypad’s instructions for setting the address).

2. Use data field program mode to enable keypad addresses, assign a partition, enable sound options
in fields *190-*196 as shown in the table above.

3. If desired, use data field *198 to turn on the display of the partition number.

4. Set the following keypad-related data fields as required by the installation:

*21 Quick Arm Enable ∗180 Zone Bypass Limit
*23 Forced Bypass ∗186 Display Options
∗25 Arming Prevention Override ∗188 Keypad Sabotage Options
*84 Auto STAY Arm† ∗197 Exit Time Display Interval
∗88 Exit Options † NOTE: Do not use this option if Telecommand is installed to permit

remote end-user control of the system.

Wireless Receiver Transmitters, and Wireless Keys (keyfobs)

Receiver: Set the receiver’s address to “00” using its DIP switches, then set the following options:
*22 RF Jam Option
*24 RF House ID Code (if using DIP switch equipped wireless keypads) for each partition
∗25 Arming Prevention Override
*67 Transmitter Low Battery Report Code
*75 Transmitter Low Battery Restore Report Code
∗173 RF Reporting Options
∗178 RF Supervision/RF Jam Options
Use *56 Menu mode to program wireless zones 9-48 and wireless button zones 49-64.

Transmitters: Use *56 or *58 Zone Programming Menu modes to program zone information and

enroll transmitters (zones 9-48, buttons 49-64).

Wireless Keys: Use Wireless Key Programming Templates section of the *58 Zone Programming

Menu mode to program zone information and enroll each button of the wireless keys used. Once a
wireless key is enrolled, it must be assigned to a user before it becomes active. See Adding/Deleting
Security Codes section for procedure.

Pager Programming

The system can send various reports to up to 2 pagers.
To program pager reporting, do the following:

1. Enter the appropriate information in the following data fields:

*160, *163 Pager Phone Numbers (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
*161, *164Pager Prefix Characters (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
*162, *165 Pager Reporting Options by Partition

2. Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *166 (delays alarm reporting for ALL pagers).

3. Enable appropriate user open/close pager reports using the user attribute command

(master code + [8] + user no. + [#] [5] + [1]). Users that perform actions in their assigned partition

will, if enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for open/close reporting in that partition.

†

(for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)

3-2

4. If using child-not-home pager report, define the report schedule using Scheduling mode (master
code + [#] [6] [4] then select event type “03”).

5. If using a function key to manually send a message to a pager, see Function Keys paragraph below.

6. If reporting zone alarms and troubles to a pager, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones
associated with each pager (zone lists 9-11).

Function Keys

To assign functions to the function keys, use *57 Function Key menu mode.
To assign emergency key functions (function key option “00”), first program the respective emergency

zone number (95 for “A” key, 96 for “C” key, 99 for “B” key) with the desired zone type using *56 Zone
Programming mode, then use *57 Function Key menu mode to assign the desired key.

If using a function key to activate a relay action (*57 Menu mode key function 07), use *79 Menu

mode to map the output, and use *80 Menu mode to define the output’s action; select system
operation type “66.”

If using a function key for a user macro, use *57 menu mode to activate the desired key, then define

the actual macro functions using the user code + [#] + [6] [6] command.

Output Devices

To program a device for manual activation (user code + [#] [7] / [#] [8] + 2-digit device number) or for

scheduled automatic activation, simply map the device using *79 Menu mode.

To program a device to automatically activate upon a system event (or function key), use *79 Menu

mode to map the device, then use *80 Menu mode to define the automated device action.

If the device action is based on more than one zone, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones.

Zone Type Definitions

You must assign a zone type to each zone, which defines the way in which the system responds to
faults in that zone. Zone types are defined below.

Zone Type Description
Type 00: Zone Not Used
Type 01
Entry/Exit Burglary #1

Type 02
Entry/Exit Burglary #2

Type 03
Perimeter Burglary

Type 04
Interior Follower

Program a zone with this zone type if the zone is not used.

• Assign to zones that are used for primary entry and exit.

• Provides entry delay when zone type is faulted if control is armed in the Away,

Stay, or Night-Stay modes.

• No entry delay provided when the panel is armed in the Instant/Maximum mode.

• Entry delay #1 is programmable for each partition.

• Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the arming mode

selected, and is programmable for each partition. (If Final Contact Set exit option
is selected in field *88, exit delay remains on indefinitely until the last zone in
zone list 8 is restored; once the last zone is restored, exit delay is then 5 seconds.)

• Assign to zones that are used for entry and exit and require more time than the
primary entry/exit point.

• Provides a secondary entry delay, in same manner as entry delay #1.

• Entry delay #2 is programmable for each partition.

• Exit delay is the same as described for Type 01.

• Assign to all sensors or contacts on windows and infrequently used exterior doors.

• Provides an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is armed in the

Away, Stay, Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.

• Assign to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway through
which one must pass upon entry (to and from the keypad).

• Provides a delayed alarm (using the programmed entry 1 time) if the entry/exit
zone is faulted first. Otherwise this zone type gives an instant alarm.

• Active when the panel is armed in the Away mode.

• Bypassed automatically when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes;

if armed in Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list)
are not bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.

Type 23 *
No Alarm Response

* The system can still be armed when these zone types are in a faulted condition.

• Assign to a zone covering a sensitive area such as a stock room, drug supply
room, emergency exit door, etc.

• Can also be used with a sensor or contact for an area where immediate
notification of an entry is desired.

• Assign for use with sensor, device, or sounder tamper protection.

• Provides an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away, Stay, Night-Stay,

Instant or Maximum modes.

• During the disarmed state, the system will provide a latched trouble sounding
from the keypad (and a central station report, if desired).

• Usually assigned to a zone containing an emergency button.

• Sends a report to the central station but provides no keypad display or sounding.

• Assign to a zone that has an emergency button.

• Sends a report to the central station, and provides an alarm sound at the keypad,

and an audible external alarm.

• Assign to a zone containing an emergency button, or to a zone containing
monitoring devices such as water or temperature sensors.

• Sends a report to the central station and provides an alarm sound at the keypad.
(No siren output is provided.)

• Provides a fire alarm on short circuit and a trouble condition on open circuit. A
fire alarm produces a pulsing siren output.

• This zone type is always active and cannot be bypassed.

• Provides entry delay (using the programmed entry time), if tripped when the

panel is armed in the Away mode.

• Entry Delay 1 begins whenever sensors in this zone are violated, regardless of
whether or not an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.

• Bypassed when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes; if armed in
Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list) are not
bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.

• Works as a dynamic monitor of a zone fault/trouble (not alarm). In the case of a
short/open, the message, "*ALARM*-24 Hr. Non-Burg. -#XXX " (where XXX is the
zone number) will be sent to the Central Station. The system keypad will display
a “CHECK” message indicating the appropriate zone (but keypad beeping does
not occur). Upon restoral of the zone, the message, "*RESTORE*-24 Hr. Non­Burg. -#XXX " will be sent to the Central Station.

• The “CHECK” message will automatically disappear from the keypad dynamically,
when the zone restores; a user code + off sequence is not needed to reset the zone.

• Faults of this zone type are independent of the system, and can exist at the time
of arming without interference.

• Since this is a “trouble” zone type, do not use this zone type with relays set to
activate upon “alarm.”

• Assigned to any zone with a gas detector.

• The siren output will pulse when this zone type is alarmed.

• Always active and cannot be bypassed.

• Provides a fire alarm when zone is shorted, but only after alarm is verified.

• System verifies alarm by resetting zones for 12 seconds after short is detected. A

subsequent short circuit within 90 seconds triggers fire alarm.

• Provides a trouble response when zone is open.

• Arms the system in Stay mode when the zone is activated.

• Pushbutton units send user number to the central station when arming/disarming.

• User number for button must be assigned.

• Arms the system in Away mode when the zone is activated.

• Pushbutton units send user number to the central station when arming/disarming.

• User number for button must be assigned.

• Disarms the system when the zone is activated.

• User number for button must be assigned.

• Can be used on a zone when an output relay action is desired, but with no

accompanying alarm (e.g., lobby door access).

• Zone faults/restores are event logged.
