1Introduction
The ITI® Model 4720 is a combination Contr ol/Communicator which features 16 in te rn al zo nes. Thr o ug h t he us e
of zone expanders, the Model 4720 can have up to 80 zones. The zones can be programmed for a wide variety of
functions. The Model 4720 can be used in both residential and commercial applications depending on the
peripherals and programming options selected. All programming options are stored in an electrically erasable
programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), which prevents the loss of information when all power is removed,
and can be reprogrammed up to 1000 times. Programming is accomplished through full-function touchpads, the
Model 5520 Programmer, or by downloading from a computer.
Notice: To comply with industry standards, the Model 4720 is equipped with line seizure. This means t hat any time th e
system's dialer needs to communicate with the central station, it will NOT be possible to use any telephones that
are on the same line(s) as the security system. Normally, this condition will last less than one minute, but under
poor telephone circuit conditions, it could last for as long as 15 minutes.
This manual discusses the capabilities of, the installation of, and programming procedures for the Model 4720.
This first section describes the features and accessories. Sections 2 through 14 explain how to install the Model
4720 and its accessories. System operation is discussed in sections 15 and 16. Sections 17 through 19 explain the

3.1Battery Cables
The red (+) and black (–) battery cables are used to connect a 12-V
rechargeable battery (Model 6712—
DC
not provided) to the system. The battery provides backup power to the Model 4720 in the event of AC
power interruptions (failures).
CAUTION:
Observe proper polarity when connecting the battery cables of
the Model 4720.
Note: The Model 6712 12V, 6.5-AH battery will provide at least four (4) hours of standby operation to the basic
4720 system. Two (2) 6.5-AH batteries are required for household and commercial fire installations. The
use of accessories may reduce standby operation time so that additional battery capacity may be needed.
Note: If the AC transformer is unplugged for more than 24 hours, the battery must be disconnected to prevent it
from being discharged.
Figure 3.1a: Battery Connection—PC Boards Prior to Revision L
3.2DC Power Switch
The DC power switch is used to remove DC power from the ci rcu itry of the Mod el 4720. When th is swi tch
is in the OFF position with AC connected, the only thing that remains functional is the battery charging
circuit. If AC is not connected, the standby battery should not be connected, because leakage current
through the charging circuit could discharge the battery over a period of time. See Section 3.12.3 for
information on enabling and disabling the DC power switch.
3.3Overcurrent Protection
3.3.1PolySwitch
®
Circuit Protectors
Starting with the Revision L printed circuit board, all fuses have been replaced with PolySwitch
(copyright Raychem) circuit protectors. The PolySwitch's normally very small resistance (less than
1 ohm) undergoes a lar ge, abrup t increase when it g ets heated by an ov ercurrent cond ition. Wh en the
current returns to an allowable value, the PolySwitch resets automatically, allowing normal circuit
operations to resume. The protector requires no manual resetting or replacement. If a red LED is on,
determine where the problem is (refer to Table 3.4a) and correct it. The LED will turn off.

Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
3.3.2Fuses
PC board revisions prior to Revision L still use Revisions A-K for overcurrent protection.
•F1 is a 2.5-A Fast Blow Fuse that provides overcurrent protection for an AC Siren Speaker
connected to Terminal 4 of the Model 4720.
•F2 is a 1.5-A Fast Blow Fuse that provides overcurrent protection for touchpads and any
accessories connected to Terminal 5 of the Model 4720.
•F3 is a 1.5-A Fast Blow Fuse that provides overcurrent protection for expansion modules and
smoke detectors connected to Terminal 10 of the Model 4720.
•F4 is a 4-A Fast Blow Fuse that provides overcurrent protection to the battery.
CAUTION:
To avoid fire hazards, the Model 4720 is designed with backup
nonreplaceable fuses in series with the replaceable fuses
(power-limited design). It is
replace fuses with
AMP
rating as the old fuse. If you replace a fuse with a higher-
FAST-BLOW
VERY IMPORTANT
type fuses with the
that you
SAME
rated or slow-blow type fuse, the nonreplaceable fuse will
blow, and the panel will have to be returned to the factory for
repair.
NEVER
put a jumper across any fuse. A jumper across a
replaceable fuse will cause one of the nonreplaceable fuses to
blow. A jumper across a nonreplaceable fuse could cause a
fire.
When a replaceable fuse blows, find the cause of the excess
current by (1) using an ohmmeter and (2) replacing the fuse,
then connecting up one device at a time to see which device
causes the fuse to blow. Repair the short, then replace the
fuse with the same type and rating. Keep spare fuses in your
tool kit.
3.4LEDs
The red LEDs are normally OFF, and come ON under the following conditions:
Table 3.4a: Red LED Indications
LED #Location on PC BoardCondition(s) Causing Red LED to Light

3
Lower right sideXBUS overcurrent (higher than 1.1 A).
The magnetic field of a nearby lightning strike can induce damaging currents in the wiring of an alarm
system. Even distant strikes can affect the panel through the AC or telephone wiring. The 4720 has built-in
transient protection devices, but in order to work, they must be able to shunt the transient currents to earth
ground. The green Earth Grounding Wire (included) must have one end installed under one of the four (4)
mounting screws of the Model 4720 print ed circu it boar d. Th e oth er end must be connec ted to a go od eart h
ground. If this is not available via the ground wire of the building's 3-conductor AC wiring, then a separate
heavy gauge wire should be run to a metal cold water pipe or grounding stake. This wire should be run as
short as possible, and sharp bends should be avoided.

Note: Starting with PC board Revision J, J1 and J2 are jumper blocks instead of jumper wires. Instead of cutting
the jumper wire, move the jumper block to the left (“out”) position. J3 and J4 are still jumper wires on the
Revision L PC board.
Jumper blocks J5 and J6 are new with the Revision L PC board. See Section 3.12.4.
3.12.1Jumper Block J1
If a siren (speaker) is used, leave this jumper block in the right position (jumper not cut, in earlier
revisions). Move it to the left position (jumper cut) if a DC bell or DC siren is used.
3.12.2Jumper Block J2
If you want both alarm tones and alert ton es to be present o n Terminals 8 and 45, leave jumper block
J2 in the right position (jumper not cut). When you move Jumper Block J2 to the left position
(jumper cut), only the alarm tones will be present at Terminal 8 but both tones will be present at
Terminal 45.
3.12.3Jumpers J3 and J4
With Jumpers J3 and J4 left in place, the DC Power switch does not function. This is necessary for
NFPA and California Fire Marshall applications. For burglary applications, these jumpers may be
cut to enable the DC Power switch.
3.12.4Jumper Blocks J5 and J6 (Starting with Revision L PC Board)
Jumper blocks J5 and J6 (new with the Revision L printed circuit board) control the Answering
Machine Bypass feature. These two (2) jumper blocks are located just to the left of the Model 4175
Phone Header. When NO 4175 is used, J5 and J6 should be to the right, next to the Model 4175
header. This allows downloading to take place even when the user has an answering machine.
When a 4175 is to be used (NO answering machine bypass), the jumper blocks must be in the left
position. If they are not in the left position, it is impossible to plug the Model 4175 into its header.
Make sure you put each jumper block on its own header (horizontal position)—Do NOT place one
jumper block across both the J5 and J6 headers.

3.13Plug-On Terminal Strips
The Model 4720 uses plug-on terminal strips, which allow you to change the panel without unscrewing
each terminated wire.
3.13.1Terminal Strip Removal
1. Tag each of the four (4) terminal block wire bundles, so the blocks can be reinstalled in the
correct positions.
2. Disconnect the 9220 AC Transformer and the battery cables.
3. Each terminal block is held by two (2) catches on the outside. To remove the block, pull up and
out on the inside of the block.
3.13.2Terminal Strip Replacement
Check that each pin on the terminal block is straight, as crooked pins can damage the base portion
upon insertion.
Position the terminal block directly over its base and press straight in. The block will snap into
place.

4.1Current Draw Calculations
4.1.1Total Standby and Alarm Current Draw
Table 4.1.1.0a is a worksheet to help you calculate the amount of current the system draws on
standby and in an alarm condition, to make sure the installation does not exceed power supply and
calculating current draw for battery capacity. The second column shows the LED that indicates
excessive current draw for each accessory, for PC board Revision L and later revisions. The third
column shows the fuse through which each accessory draws power, for earlier PC board revisions.
The remaining columns are explained in the instructions below.
To use the worksheet in Table 4.1.1.0a:
1. Look down through the Device column to identify which devices ar e and are n ot inc lude d in th is
installation.
a. Cross out any device that is not used, extending the line all the way across the page.
b. In the spaces provided, write in any other devices not printed on the sheet.
c. For each device, list the number of devices being used in the # of devices column. The
maximum number of devices is shown in parentheses ( ).
Example: Suppose your installation included two (2) LCD Touchpads, a 4115 Zone Expander, and no 4110
4660B/C/R LCD

2. Go through the Curr ent per devi ce column and fill in any missing current ratings for the devices
used. Note that some devices hav e dif fe ren t ratings f or stan dby and al arm cond itio n. For de vices
not mentioned in the manual, refer to the device manual for the current ratings.
3. For each device, multiply the # of devices times the Current per device, and enter the total in
either the Total standby current or Total alarm current column, whichever is appropriate. For
devices with different standby and alarm currents, be sure to do the calculation for each rating.
Do NOT write in the shaded areas.

4. Add up each of th e two Total columns and write the totals in the spac es on the last line (4th page)
of the worksheet. When you add the columns, remember to:
•Include the values from ALL three (3) pages of the worksheet (Table 4.1.1.0a).
•Include both printed and handwritten values.
5. For UL installations—To obtain 24-hour standby battery power , the Total standby current draw
must not exceed 200 mA when using the Model 4720 only, and must not exceed 350 mA when
one 4195 is used.
6. Calculate the Alarm current draw on the protective devices indicated by LEDs 2 and 3 (F2 and
F3 in PC board revisions prior to Revision L), following the directions in Section 4.1.2. The total
combined Alarm current draw on these protective devices must not exceed 1300 mA. To obtain
more active current, touchp ads can be power ed by the Model 419 5, which provi des an addition al
2500 mA.

5Wiring Precautions
To avoid induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another), keep input wiring isolated from
high current output and power wiring. Induced noise can interfere with telephone communication, or even cause
false alarms. Avoid pulling one multiconductor cable for the entire panel. Instead, separate the wiring as follows:
•High current input/output: AC power and speaker and bell wiring
•Low current input/output: Touchpad and zone loop wiring
•Audio input/output: Telephone wiring
Wires from different groups should not be pulled through the same conduit. If you must run them together, do so
for as short a distance as possible, or use shielded cable. Connect the shield to circuit ground at the panel.
For the same reasons, wiring within the cabinet should be routed around the perimeter of the cabinet. It should not
cross the printed circuit board, where it could induce noise into the sensitive microelectronics, or pick up unwanted
RF noise from the high speed circuits.
High frequency noise, such as t hat produ ced by the induc tive reac tance of a speak er or be ll, c an also be re duced by
running the wire through ferrite shield beads, or by wrapping it around a ferrite toroid.
6Model 4720 Control Panel Installation
6.1Selecting a Location
When selecting a location to mount the Model 4720 control panel consider the following factors. The unit
should be mounted where it will not be exposed to extremes in temperat ure and it will be free from
moisture. The panel should be accessible to “main drop” wiring runs. The 4720 should be located well
within the secured area but should be accessible for testing and service.
24
Page 35
Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
6.2Mounting the Model 4720
Mount the Model 4720 so it is firmly secured to the wall surface. When mounting on concrete, especially
when moisture is expected, at tach a piece of
3
/4-inch plywood to the concrete surface and then attach the
Model 4720 to the plywood. Mount all other desired components to the plywood interface.
Figure 6.2a: Suggested Mounting for the Control Panel
6.3Installing the Model 9220 Power Transformer
An external transformer (Model 9220 included) is used to supply 16.5 V AC (40 VA) to power the system
under normal conditions and to supply charging current to the backup battery. The primary of this
transformer plugs directly into a conventional 115-V
unswitched outlet. The secondary is wired into
AC
Terminals 1 and 2 of the Model 4720 with a 2-conductor cable (preferably shielded). Use 18-gauge wire or
larger (i.e., AWG 16, 14, 12, etc.).
6.3.1Model 4165 Transformer Housing
You must install the power transformer inside of the Model 4165 when installing the Model 4720 in
accordance with NFPA Standards.
1. Remove all power from the electrical outlet before attaching the Model 4165.
2. Remove the two (2) screws that hold the outlet to the single gang box.
3. using the two (2) screws that were removed, attach the Model 4165 box to the outlet and the
single gang box.
4. Plug the transformer into the outlet.
5. The secondary of the transformer must be run in conduit which may be attached to any of the
knockout holes.
6. Attach the housing cover to the housing plate using the two (2) screws provided.
Note: Electric door strikes and magnetic door holders are a potential source for damaging electrical
impulses. The auxiliary powe r from the Model 4720 should not be used for these devices. A
separate power source (such as Model 4195) should be used, and a reverse polarity diode should be
connected across the devices to suppress the impulses.

6.3.2Installing th e Transformer
The main wiring diagram and Figure 6.3.2a show the connection of shielded 2-conductor cable and
the Model 7890 Transient-Surge Protector to the Model 9220 UL Listed Class II Power Transformer
(16.5 V
plugged into a 120-V
, 40 VA). Both models are included with the Model 4720. The transformer should be
The Model 9220 contains an internally fused secondary
winding.
DO NOT SHORT
the secondary terminals together
when power is applied or the internal fuse will blow. Be sure
the shield conductor cannot come in contact with the AC
output screws.
The Model 7890 Transient-Surge Protector will protectively clamp the AC output of the transformer,
reducing transient voltages caused by lightning and other sources. The AC power lines are the most
common source of transient/lightning damage in alarm systems. The Model 7890 consists of two (2)
bipolar transient suppressors with lugs at its connecting points.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the AC outlet you intend to use for the Model
9220 has a “good” connection to earth ground. This can be
done at the outlet, by using a digital voltmeter to measure the
AC voltage between the “hot” side of the outlet and neutral,
then comparing that voltage to the voltage reading made
between the “hot” side and the ground connection. The
difference between these two voltage readings should not
exceed 1 V
. If these voltages are not within 1 VAC, the outlet
AC
does not have an earth ground and must be grounded by
running a 14-gauge wire from the outlet to a good source of
earth ground such as a water pipe.
Note: A licensed electrician may be required to perform this
procedure.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, connect directly to
a grounded (3-prong) receptacle.

Figure 6.3.2a: Model 9220 Transformer Connection
6.4Model 4195 Auxiliary Power Supply
The Model 4195 provides an additional 2.5 A of current for accessory items, 1.25 each at Terminals 3 and
4. The 4195 contains an AC power light that monitors the transformer. It also allows you to use two (2)
standby batteries to double the time that the system can function on battery standby. The 4195 also has
reverse battery indicators, and output overload indicators.
The 4195 should be mounted in the plastic board mount above the Model 4720. Figure 6.4a shows how to
wire the Model 4195. Connect the red battery lead from the Model 4720 to the spade lug labeled + on the
diagram below. Connect the black battery lead from the Mo de l 4720 t o th e spa de lug l ab ele d “– ” on Fig u re
6.4a below.
To enable the Model 4195 outputs to turn off for smoke detector reset, connect Terminal 6 of the Model
4195 to Terminal 10 of the Model 4720 instead of to Terminal 5 of the Model 4720.

7Touchpad Installation
Note 1: In a UL installation, the touchpads must be mounted on a dual gang electrical box.
Note 2: If a touchpad is removed from a Model 2605/2607 and then connected to a Model 4720, the CHM and CODE2
keys won't function. The touchpad is programmed by the 2605/2607 and must be reprogrammed at the factory
before it can be used with a 4720.
7.1Mounting the Touchpads
To mount a touchpad, follow this procedure:
1. Separate the top section from the rear mounting plate. First, insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the
slot(s) located on the bottom edge of the frame. Push in, then lift up the top section.
2. Secure the mounting plate to the wall using the proper screw (either a #6 or a #8) with a thread
appropriate for the type of material it is going into.
The mounting plate should be oriented so that the protruding tab and the three (3) posts are towards the
bottom. Pull the wires through the hole in the rear mounting plate.
3. Wire the touchpad as explained in Section 7.2.
After all the wires are connected to the Model 4720 terminal strip, set the top of the touchpad frame
over the tabs at the top of the mounting plate, then press on the bottom until you hear it snap in to
position.

touchpad wiring is permitted within the following limitations.
When touchpads are daisy-chained, the wiring leg between the panel and the first station must conduct
extra current to supply multip le to uc hp ads. Si nce t he w ir e has some r es ist an ce, th er e will b e a vo lt ag e d rop
at the end of the wire run and this dro p must be within t he toler ance of the touc hpad re quireme nt. To reduce
the drop, you should use lower resistance wire; 18 AWG is recommended. For example, suppose you want
to run a common leg for 300 feet, and then branch to two (2) touchpads, the farthest of which will be an
additional 200 feet. You plan to use 18 AWG for the common leg and 22 AWG for the two (2) branches.
Here is how you would decide if this is acceptable:
AWGOhms/footOhms/1,000 feet
22.016116.1
18.00646.4
Model 4660B/C/R:Active current draw: 120 mA
Maximum allowed voltage drop: 2 V
For the common leg:
Maximum current = 120 mA × 2 = 240 mA (× 2 touchpads)
Resistance = .0064 ohms/foot × 600 feet = 3.84 ohms (18 AWG, 300 feet × 2)
(Note that the wire length is doubled since the current must flow out and back.)
For the longest sub-branch:
Maximum current = 120 mA
Resistance = .0161 ohms/foot × 400 feet = 6.44 ohms (22 AWG, 200 feet × 2)
Voltage drop = 120 mA × 6.44 ohms = 0.77 V
Total voltage drop at farthest touchpad: 0.92 V + 0.77 V = 1.69 V
Since this is less than the 2 V maximum allowed drop, the wiring is acceptable.

7.4Setting ID Codes
When installing the system, set the ID number for each t ouchpad according to the following procedure:
1. Apply power.
2. Press 0, 0, TEST (before pressing any other key sequence).
3. The display will read KEY ID=NN, BEEP=1 (NN represents the current ID number. BEEP=1
indicates that the miniature speakers in the touchpads have been enabled.)
The beep enable can be toggled by pressing MUTE. When Beep = 0, entry, exit, and trouble beeps will
not be heard at that touchpad.
Note: Key beeps will be heard at the touchpad, regardless of the Beep = 0 option.
4. Enter the new ID number, 01…15, then press TEST.
5. If there is more than one touchpad, repeat from Step 1 or 2 for each touchpad in the system, using a
different sequential ID number for each touchpad.
6. Remove power from the system by unplugging the transformer and disconnecting at least one battery
cable. You must do this before you test the touchpad.
The SlimLine design of the Model 4203 allows it to be mounted on the door jamb between the
screen door and the entry door. After connecting the wires, place the insulating material behind the
touchpad. Using the screws provided, screw the touchpad to the door jamb. If the touchpad is to be
mounted on a metal surface, it will be necessary to drill two (2) pilot holes before fastening the
station to the jamb.
7.5.2Wiring the Model 4203
Note: The last four (4) zones on the Model 4720 are used as inputs from the Model 4203. You will lose the
use of these zones for alarms.
Note: The Model 4203 Touchpad requires control chip Revision B or later.
The Model 4203 is provided with a 6-wire pigtail for connection to the Model 4720. Figure 7.5.2a
shows how to wire the Model 4203 t ouchpad to the Model 4720.
The Model 4203 is also provided with a sep ar at e f our (4) c o n du ctor pigtail cable. This cable is only
needed when connecting the Model 4203 to the M odel 2820 (see Model 2820 Installation Manual,
P/N 150492).

9.2Smoke Detector Wiring
The ESL 445AT 12-V
, 4-wire Smoke Detector must be used when wiring fire zones on the Model 4720
DC
in a UL installation. Refer to NFPA 72E for proper smoke detector placement. Figure 9.2 shows how to
wire the 445AT Smoke Detectors ESL 445AT. The ESL 445AT Smoke Detector is rated at 1.5 mA in the
normal supervisory condition and 60 mA in the alarm condition. Refer to Table 4.1.1.0a for the maximum
number of detectors that may be used. The ESL 204A Power Supervision Unit and Model 7630 EOL
Resistor must be mounted across the last detector in the loop.
Note 1: If you want to use more than seven (7) smoke detectors, connect Terminal 1 of the smoke detector to
Terminal 3 or 4 of the Model 4195 Auxiliary Power Supply (instead of Terminal 10 of the Model 4720),
and connect Terminal 6 of the Model 4195 to Termin al 10 (ins tead of Terminal 5) of the Model 4720. When
the Model 4720 powers up, Terminal 10 of the Model 4720 will drop to 0 V
momentarily, which will
DC
reset all the smoke detectors. In this configuration, a maximum of 20 smoke detectors may be used.
Note 2: Two-wire smoke detectors can NOT be used with the Model 4720, unless the Model 7181 Fire Zone
Converter is installed (see Section 9.3).

10.2Commercial Burglary Bell Wiring
Figure 10.2a shows the wiring of an external DC alarm bell. If you use a DC bell, you must either move the
shunt block to the left (“out”) position or, if there is no shunt block, cut the jumper labeled “J1” on the PC
board. You must also install the supplied transient suppressor Model 7800 as close as possible to the bell
contacts.
Note 1: When used in a UL Grade A Mer cantile (UL 36 5), Grade A Local (UL 6 09) or Grade B Cen tral Statio n (UL
1610) installation, an external alarm bell must be enclosed in UL Listed cabinet with tamper switches. The
AB-12 Bell and Housing manufactured by Ademco is UL approved for this purpose.
Note 2: CFM listed systems require one (1) listed audible driver to be installed inside the residence.

10.3External Speaker Wiring
Terminal 4 (Ext. Spkr.) of the Model 4720 is designed for use with an 8-Ω, 15-W speaker. Connect the
speaker between Terminals 4 and 7 as shown in the diagram below. DO NOT cut Jumper J1 on the Model
4720. If the board has a shunt block, leave it in the right (“in”) position. An external speaker is NOT
permitted for UL commercial installati ons. It is onl y permitted in U L Residential installat ions. The Ad emco
713 is a suitable UL Listed speaker.

Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
10.4Internal Speaker Wiring
If an internal speaker is to be used such as in a touchpad, it must be connected between Terminal 5
(auxiliary power, speaker +) and Terminal 8 (speaker –). The 4720 was design ed for use with an 8-Ω, 9-W
internal speaker or up to six 45-Ω, 1-W speakers.
If you wish to have alarm sounds only on some speakers, then cut Jumper J2 (move shunt block to the left/
“out” position). After doing so, speakers connected to Terminal 8 will produce alarm sounds only, but
speakers connected to Terminal 45 will still produce both alarm and alert sounds.

10.5Model 4180 Status Relays
See the Model 4180 Status Display Module Wiring Instructions (P/N 150445) for information on how to
install the Model 4180. Be sure to maintain a physical separation of at least one half inch between the field
wires and the Model 4180 connection points. This will prev ent transient damage to the Model 4180
connection points.

11Telephone Line Connection
11.1Line 1 Wiring
The Model 4720 communicates to the cent r al s tation over the same telephone line a lr eady installed in your
home or building. You should connect the Model 4720 to the phone line using an RJ31X type phone jack.
The telephone company will install an RJ31X jack upon request. The Model 7860 connecting cord will
mate to the RJ31X and can be wired into the Model 4720 as shown in Figure 11.1a below.
Figure 11.1a: Telephone Line Wiring
11.2Ground Start Relay Wiring
The Model 4720 normally communicates to the central station over standard “loop start” telephone
networks. In some instances, it may be necessary to communicate over “ground start” telephone networks.
Ground start networks require a momentary connection between one side of the telephone line and earth
ground to enable dial tone. The Mo del 4720 w ill accommoda te ground start trunks with th e addition of a 12
V
relay . Figure 1 1.2a shows the wiring of the Ground Start Relay. If you use the Ground Start feature you
DC
must select it when programming the EEPROM.
Note: In a UL installation, a ground start telephone network may not be used because it cannot be supervised.

11.3External Dialer Failed Indicator
A 12-V
device such as an indicator lamp or the coil of a 12-VDC relay may be wired as a dialer failed
DC
indicator. To use a dialer failed indicator, connect the positive side of the indicator to Terminal 5 (auxiliary
power) and the negative side to Terminal 40 (dialer failed).
In UL applications, this signal is provided from the touchpads.

11.4Model 4175 Dual Phone Line Monitor with Ring Detector
11.4.1Model 4175 Wiring
When using two (2) phone lines, you must install the Model 4175 Dual Phone Line Monitor.
The following notes apply to Revision L and later printed circuit boards:
Note 1: Before you can connect the Model 4175, y ou must remove Jump er bloc ks J5 and J6 from the Model
4720 board.
Note 2: When the Model 4175 is being used, the Answering Machine Bypass feature is NOT available.
Therefore, if an answering machine is installed, you must put it on Line 2. Downloading takes place
on Line 1, and an answering machine on Line 1 would prevent activation of the downloading
feature.
1. Plug the Model 4175 onto the Phone Line Monitor connector on the Model 4720 printed circuit
board (same connector as for the Model 4170).
2. Connect the second phone cord as shown in Figure 11.4a below. (The first phone cord for Line 1
should be connected directly to the Model 4720 as described in Section 11.1.)

Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
11.4.2Model 4175 Operation
The 4720 will always try to use Phone Line 1 unless it is bad. If Phone Line 1 is bad, the Model
4720 automatically chooses Line 2. If the Model 4720 fails to communicate on its first attempt (on
either line), it will automatically switch to the alternate phone line. It will repeat this sequence until
it reaches a receiver or the total number of attempts (chosen during programming) is exceeded.
12Expansion Zones
Note: Do NOT program 24-hour expansion zones as entry delayed. The reason is that 24-hour zones selected as entry
delayed do not bypass correctly during the entry time or when they are in alarm.
12.1Model 4110 Zone Expander
The Model 4110 is a serial 2-wire zone expander that must be used in conjunction with the Model 4100 or
4101 SmartSensors. Using the Model 4110 can add up to 60 expansion zones to the Model 4720. The 4110
has two (2) separate serial loops and each loop can have up to 30 sensors. The sensors can be programmed
for normally open or normally closed contacts. The 4110 looks at individual sensor pairs (one on each loop)
to determine if an alarm condition is present. Each sensor in the loop gets its own identification number.
The 4110 must be mounted inside of the Model 4720 cabinet.
Note: This device can be used in burglary applications only, and must be connected with shiel de d c ab le with one
end of the shield connected to ground (Terminal 6) and the other end left unconnected. Wire gauge must be
18 (or larger). Maximum wire length is 1000 feet.
To connect the Model 4110 to the Model 4720, follow the steps below:
1. Sli de the Model 4110 printed circuit board into the plastic board mount located ins ide of the Model
4720 cabinet. Make sure that the terminal screws and 12-pin connectors are positioned towards the
Model 4720 PC board.
2. Connect one end of the 12-wire conductor to either one of the 12-position polarized connectors on the
Model 4110.
3. Connect the other end of the 12-wire conductor to one of the 12-position polarized connectors labeled
XBUS on the Model 4720. Run the 12-wire conductor around the Model 4720 PC board. Do NOT run
the conductor over or under the PC board.
4. If y ou will be using another model th at must be connected to the XBUS bus on the Model 4720, it may
be connected to the extra 12-position connector on the Model 4110.
12.1.1Connecting the SmartSensors
Figure 12.1.1a shows how the two (2) serial loops are connected to the Model 4110. Wiring runs
should not exceed 1000 ft. For UL installations, each loop must be run in a separate 2-wire cable to
eliminate interference. If you use shielded cable, connect one end of the shield to circuit ground
(4720 Terminal 6), and leave the other end disconnected.
CAUTION:
To avoid equipment damage,
ALWAYS
observe correct
polarity when wiring the SmartSensors.

Figure 12.1.1a: Wiring the Model 4110 Serial Zone Expander
The Model 4100 SmartSensor contains a magnetic reed switch for sensing alarms. The Model 4101
provides two (2) terminals for connecting either normally open or normally closed contacts. Both
models provide two (2) terminals for connection to the Model 4110 Zone Expander.
Note: When using the Model 4100 SmartSensor, you must choose the normally closed option for that
particular zone.
Figure 12.1.1b shows the Models 4100 and 4101 SmartSensors.

Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
The Model 4110 has two (2) serial loops. Each loop may have up to 30 Model 4100 and Model
4101s in any combination. If you will be using 30 sensors or less, they should al l be place d on Loop
1 (Terminals 1 and 2 of the Model 4110). Terminal 1 is the positive terminal for Loop 1 and
Terminal 2 is the negative terminal for Loop 1.
Note: If you are using both serial loops on the Model 4110, DO NOT run both loops with the same
conductor (i.e., do not use a 4-conductor cable to run both loops). Separate conductors are required
to eliminate the possibility of “cross talk” between the two (2) loops.
1. Run a wire from Terminal 1 of the Model 4110 to the positive terminals on all of the Model
4100s and Model 4101s used in Loop 1 (maximum of 30 sensors).
2. Run a wire from Terminal 2 of the Model 4110 to the negative terminals on all of the Model
4100s and Model 4101s used in Loop 1 (maximum of 30 sensors).
Important: All positive terminals on the SmartSensors in a single loop must be connected together and all of the
negative terminals in a single loop must be connected together.
3. If more than 30 sensors are used, follow Steps 1 and 2 above but use Terminals 3 (positive) and
4 (negative) on the Model 4110.
You will notice that there are five (5) DIP switches on the SmartSensors (see Figure 12.1.1b). These
switches are used to select the sensor ID #. It is important that no two (2) sensors have the same ID
# in the same loop.
The SmartSensors are shipped with all switches in the ON position. The following chart shows
which switches to open (change to the OFF position) for specific ID #'s. The ID #s are NOT the
same as the zone numbers. This will be explained in Section 12.1.2.
On earlier revision sensors, five (5) jumpers are used instead of the five (5) DIP switches. Jumper 1
corresponds to Switch 1, Jumper 2 to Switch 2, etc. Instead of opening the switches, you would cut
the jumpers.
Table 12.1.1c: Switches to Open to Select Sensor ID Numbers
Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
12.1.2Determining ID Numbers and Zone Numbers
12.1.2.1 Calculating 4110 ID Numbers from Zone Numbers
To insure that the sensors activate the appropriate zones, you must assign the correct ID
numbers to the sensors. Zone numbers within the following range can be used with the
Model 4110 Zone Expander, if only one zone expander is used:
Lowest 4110 expansion zone # = Last internal zone # + 1
Highest 4110 expansion zone # = Last internal zone # + 60
The Last internal zone # is the number you entered in the Model 4720 Programmi ng Re cord
for the Last Int Z# option (see Section 9: Internal Zones). If you have not reprogrammed the
last internal zone, the factory-programmed value is 16.
Use the formula below to determine the ID number for each sensor:
Loop 1: ID # = (Zone # – Last internal zone #)
Note: If you get an ID # greater than 30, you must use Loop 2. Use the formula below to calculate
the ID #.
Loop 2: ID # = (Zone # – Last internal zone #) – 30
Example: If you are programming an ID number for a sensor that, when activat ed, will trigger an alarm
in Zone 49 (Loop 2), and your last internal zone was 13, the ID number would be determin ed
as follows:
ID # = (49 – 13) – 30
ID # = 6
12.1.2.2 Calculating Zone Numbers from ID Numbers
If you already know a sensor ID number and you need to determine which zone number is
displayed when that sensor is activated, use the following formula:
Loop 1: Zone # = ID # + Last internal zone #
Loop 2: Zone # = ID # + Last internal zone # + 30
12.1.3Using Two Zone Expanders
When using two (2) zone expanders you must decide which expander will be 1 and which will be 2.
If the Model 41 10 is to b e 1, no mo dific ations nee d be made to the PC b oard. If the Mode l 4110 is to
be Expander 2, you must first cut Jumper J1 on the Model 4110 printed circuit board. When this is
done, the Model 4720 will see the Model 4110 as “Device 3” instead of “Device 2”. When using
software Revision 880911 or later, the zone numbers for the two (2) expanders are determined in the
same way (see Section 12.1.2: Determining ID Numbers and Zone Numbers).
CAUTION:
When the Model 4110 is being used as Expander 2, the zone
numbers selected must not overlap the zone numbers used on
Expander 1.
Total system zones (including internal zones , Expan der 1
zones and Expander 2 zones) may not exceed 80, regardless
of how many zone expanders are used.

The Model 4115 is a UL Listed 2-wire serial zone expander for the Model 4720/4724 Control/
Communicator that allows up to 64 switches to be connected on a single pair of wires.
The 12/91 Regency binder update contained a preliminary version of the documentation for the Model
4115. That documentation is now contained in a separate Model 4115 Installation Manual (P/N 150648)
which is shipped with the Model 4115.
12.3Model 4125 Zone Expander
The Model 4125 is a multiplexed zone expander that can add up to 64 expansion zones to the Model 4720.
In any one zone, all contacts must be either normally open or normally closed. The Model 4125 is mounted
in a separate cabinet not excee ding thr ee (3) f t. from the ma in contr ol unit. The conn ection must be mad e in
conduit.
The 4125 provides 64 inputs and 32 outputs for connection of up to 64 zones. For each pair of input screws,
the two (2) input screws share the output screw (labeled COM) located between them.
Once the Model 4125 cabinet has been mounted near the Model 4720, connect one end of the 12-wire
conductor to the “XBUS” of the Model 4720. Connect the other end of the cable to the 12-pin connector on
the Model 4125.
Note: If another model is used that has an unused 12-pin expansion connector, the Model 4125 may be connected
to the unused location.
12.3.1Model 4125 Zone Wiring
There are three possible ways to wire the zones on the Model 4125. Figure 12.3.1a shows the three
basic configurations (normally open, normally closed, and normally open Supervised).
Note: For UL Fire installations, each zone loop must be wired using 18-gauge wire (or larger). For UL
Burglary installations, wire must be 22-gauge (or larger). Maximum wire length is 1000 feet.

12.3.2Determining 4125 Zone Expander's Input and Zone Numbers
Note: Output numbers are not calculated for the Model 4125 because the ou tputs are n ot numbe red—they
are labeled “COM”.
12.3.2.1 Calculating 4125 Input and Zone Numbers
The zone number is the number displayed on touchpads and reported to the central station.
The input number is the screw terminal number silk-screened on the Model 4125 PC board.
In order for the correct zone number to be displayed when a contact is activated, it is
necessary to determine the correct input numbers. Calculate the input number using the
following formula:
Input # = (Zone #) – (Last internal zone #)
The Last internal zone # is the number you entered in the Model 4720 Programmi ng Record
for the Last Int Z# option (see Section 9: Internal Zones). If you have not reprogrammed the
last internal zone, the factory-programmed value is 16.
12.3.2.2 Calculating 4125 Zone and Input Numbers
If you already know the input number of a contact, and you want to know which zone is
displayed when that contact is activated, use the following formula to calculate the zone
number:
Zone # = (Input #) + (Last internal zone #)
12.3.3Using Two Zone Expanders
First determine if the Mode l 4125 wi ll be E xpander 1 (Devi ce 2) or Expander 2 (Dev ice 3). I f it will
be Expander 1, no modifications need be made to the PC board. If the Model 4125 will be Expander 2, move the jumper block (located beside the 12-wire connectors labeled EXP) to the right.
When the Model 4125 is used with the Model 4720 (without the Model 4724 Control/Expander),
zone numbers and input numbers are calculated the same way as in Section 12.3.2. Begin wiring
Expander 2 at:
(Expander 1 last input #) + 1
When the Model 4125 is used with the Model 4724 Control/Expander, zone numbers and input
numbers are calculated as follows:
Input # = Zone # – (Last Expander 1 zone #) – (Last internal zone #)Zone # = Input # + (Last Expander 1 zone #) + (Last internal zone #)
12.4Model 4130 Zone Expander
12.4.1Installing the Model 4130
The Model 4130 is an RF (Radio Frequency) zone expander. This module mounts inside of the
Model 4720 cabinet and is then connected to the Model 4135 Remote Receiver. This expander can
provide up to 64 additional zones to the Model 4720. Each RF transmitter becomes a separate zone
which reports to the remote receiver. The 4135 receiver communicates to the Model 4130 via a 4wire cable with a wire gauge of 22 (or larger), up to 500 feet in length, allowing placement of the
Model 4135 for optimum RF reception.
Note: Any combination of two (2) zone expanders may be used on the Model 4720 but the maximum
number of zones (Including touchpad panic switches) cannot exceed 83.

13Model 4184 Watchdog Module
13.1Model 4184 Watchdog Module Wiring
The Model 4184 Watchdog Module connects to the Model 4720 Control/Commun icator in order to co mply
with NFPA commercial fire protection equipment standards.
NFPA Standards require that all equipment trouble conditions must be reported. The Model 4184 Watchdog
Module monitors failures of all touchpads or failures in the control micro control unit, as the touchpads
themselves cannot annunciate these types of malfunctions.
The Model 4184 operates by monitoring the data from the touchpads. The control polls each touchpad
every 70 seconds. If the data signal fails for any reason, the Model 4184 will time out and begin emitting a
steady tone until the signal is restored. The audible signal from the Model 4184 Watchdog Module cannot
be silenced.

Red11, 12, 13, 14 (loop power)
Orange21 (serial data touchpads)
Yellow22 (serial data from touchpads)
13.2Operating Procedure, 4184 Watchdog Module
If a short or open should develop in touchpad power (Terminal 20 or Fuse F2), the LCD will go blank. The
Model 4184 Watchdog Module will start its audible alarm within two (2) minutes of this event.
If a short or open circuit should develop in the data flow to the touchpads (Terminal 21), the LCD will not
change its displayed information. In this situation, the Control/Communicator will reset the touchpads
within 70 seconds. A single letter will appear, and all LEDs will be turned on. The 4184 Watchdog Module
will start its audible alarm at this moment.
If a short should occur in the data from the touchpads (Terminal 22), the following events will occur. The
Model 4720 Control/Communicator will reset the touchpads every four (4) seconds. This will cause the
LEDs to flash and an audible signal will be h eard. The Mode l 418 4 Watchdog Module will not be activa ted.
If an open condition should occur in the data flow from the touchpads (Terminal 22), the following events
will occur. The Control/Communicator will reset the touchpads within 70 seconds. A single letter will
appear on the touchpads and all LEDs will be on. The audible alarm will beep once. The Model 4184
Watchdog Module will begin emitting its audible alarm within the next two (2) minutes.
If a failure should develop in the control MCU, the Model 4184 Watchdog Module will start emitting its
alarm within two (2) minutes.
14Other Expansion Devices
14.1Model 4140 Intercom/Telephone Controller
The Model 4140, when used with Model 4640 Audio Module, is a hands-free telephone and intercom
system. This system operates in a half-duplex mode, meaning that only one party can talk at a time. The
Model 4140 uses complex circuitry to de tec t when each p arty is att empti ng to talk . It t hen sw itches th e talk
direction to the party meeting the criteria esta blished by the Model 4140.
As a general rule, the party with the highest audio level will have control of the talk path. This is why
hands-free systems, such as the Model 4140, do not function well in high noise environments.
The 4140 must be mounted within three (3) feet of the Model 4720.

14.1.1Mounting the Model 4640
The Model 4640 is designed to be mounted next to a touchpad at its right side. The plastic prongs
sticking out of the Model 4640 are for attachment to a touchpad.
To mount:
1. Remove the touchpad's back plate.
2. Remove the hidden alignment notch on the right side of the touchpad plate. Use side-cutters to
make cuts in the grooves on the notch. Move the cut notch back and forth a few times. It should
break off easily. If necessary, use a knife to clean off any excess plastic.
3. Slide the Model 4640's prongs into the indentation you made on the touchpad. Secure the Model
4640's back plate to the wall using pan head screws. Pull wires through the indentation in the
back plate of the Model 4640. Snap the front plate firmly, being careful not to pinch the wires
between the front and back pl ates.

14.1.2Mounting the Model 4640 as a Stand-Alone Intercom
If the Model 4640 will never need to be attached to a touchp ad, t he pla stic prongs on t he lef t side of
the module can be removed. Move the prongs back and forth a few ti mes. They should break off
easily.
Secure the back plate of the Model 4640 to a w all using pan head scre ws only. Pull wires through the
indentation in the back plate of the Model 4640. Snap the front plate firmly, being careful not to
pinch the wires between the front and back plates. A 4640 module can be mounted up to 1,000 feet
from its controlling unit.
14.1.3Connecting the Model 4140 to the Model 4640 Intercom Station
To connect the Model 4140 to the Model 4640 you must use a 3-conductor shielded cable. Table
14.1.3a shows how to connect the Model 4640. The 4640 is shipped with an 8-inch detachable cable
(P/N 130375). You can connect the Model 4640 as any station number from 1 to 8. The digits
following the letters S and M indicate which station number you are wiring on the Model 4140.
Use 18-gauge wire with a maximum length of 1000 feet. Connect Pins 1 and 5 to the shield of the
field wiring. Note that the letter “X” after the terminals S and M refers to inputs 1-8.
On 4140 boards prior to Revision D, Pin 2 of the Model 4640 must be wired to Terminal 5 on the
Model 4720. On boards prior to Revision E.2, the microphone gain adjustment on the Model 4640
may have to be adjusted to minimum gain. This will prevent system oscillations, but will also reduce
the volume of the microphone. (To identify which revision you are using, refer to the white sticker
on the board. It's usually located in the top left corner.)

18Programming
18.1Model 4720 Downloading (with 5540 PC Downloading Software)
18.1.1The Initial Download
The Model 4720 was programmed at the factory to Answer Ring Detect after 10 rings. Once the
Model 4720 is installed, the downloading computer can call the Model 4720. After 10 rings, the
Model 4720 will answer the call and downloading will begin.
18.1.2Subsequent Downloads
If the Ring Detector option is still enabled, the computer can call the Model 4720 as described
above. Downloading can also be initiated by pressing 4, TEST, followed by Code 0 or Code 1.
During uploading or downloading, the LCD will display UP/DOWNLOAD. During the
downloading of options to the EEPROM, the LCD wil l also displ ay addr ess numbers . Downl oading
of all options takes approximately four (4) minutes. Downloading cannot take place while the
system is in alarm.
WARNING:
During downloading, the system will
NOT
respond to alarms.
Users must not attempt to access the system durin g
downloading. Door access will not function properly during
downloading. Attempting door access during downloading
could cause incorrect data to be programmed. User should be
notified before downloading begins to ensure they do not
attempt door access until downloading is complete.
18.1.3Ring Detector
The 4720 has a built-in ring detector. This ring detector, when enabled, allows the remote computer
to call up the Model 4720 for downloading or status changes.
18.1.4Compatibility Notes
•5530 Modem, Revision C
If you experience downloading problems when attempting to download a Revision M or later
4720 board using Revision C of the Model 5530 Modem, contact ITI Technical Support (800777-2624) to arrange for an upgrade of the downloading software.
•4720 Revision N (and later)
Revision N and later revisions of the Model 4720 are intended to be progr ammed using Revision
3.7 or later of the downloading software. If you attempt to program a Revision N panel with an
earlier version of the software, the EEPROM will contain some invalid setup information that
could cause the panel to display the message SERVICE EEPROM.
If you need to program a Revision N or later panel using Revision 3.6 or earlier of the downloading
software, follow the procedure described below. This will prevent the problem from occurring in a
new panel that has not yet been programmed.
1. Upload from a Revision N or later panel.
2. Save the upload.
3. Now you can change programming as needed and download the panel.

20Area Control Operation
Refer to the Model 4721 Area Control Software Instruction Manual (P/N 150483).
21Model 4720 reporting Formats
•SIA (SEIA)
The SIA (Security Industry Association) format must be used with a Model 9000 Receiver. Each message will
be displayed in English followed by the zone number.
•FSK 2
The FSK 2 format is similar to the SIA format. This format must also be used with the Model 9000 Receiver.
Like the SIA format, all messages will be displayed in English at the 9000. Although FSK 2 reports the same
information as the SIA format, it cannot be used to trap on the account number for downloading.
•FSK 1, SK 4/2
If you will be reporting to a Model 8520 Receiver, you must use one of these two (2) formats. Since the 8520
has only two (2) digits for alarm codes, event types and zone numbers are combined into one message. The first
digit of the code is the type of report; the second digit is the last number of the zone.
Example: Any two (2) digit code beginn ing with the dig it “1” is a Bur glary Alarm. The s econd digit is th e last number
of the zone.
Code 11 = Burglary Alarm in zone 1, 11, 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71, or 81.
Code 15 = Burglary Alarm in zone 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, or 75.
Note: If you are using the Model 4726 dialer chip or Revision M of th e Model 47 20 board and h ave sele cted th e 16-zone
reporting option, this information does not apply to you. You will report Zones 1-16.
•Radionics BFSK
The Model 4720 can transmit using the Radionics BFSK format with 1400- or 2300-Hz Acknowledge. The
messages that will be printed are listed with the codes for FSK 1 and SK 4/2.
Note: There are no Door Access Reporting Codes when using the BFSK format. If this option is selected during
programming the Model 4720 will send a restoral for Zone 9.
The list on the next page shows all of the possible codes. When the letter “Z” appears in the code, it refers to the
last number of the zone. “Y” refers to the last digit of the user ID number.
The Radionics BFSK format can only report eight (8) zone codes. Zones 9 through 16 will report as zones 1
through 8; zones 17 through 24 will report as zones 1 through 8, etc. Because of this limitation, programming the
Model 4720 to report in both the Radionics BFSK and either the FSK or SK 4/2 formats is not advised.
Note: It is recommended that you use no more than eight (8) zones if your system is programmed to report in Radionics
BFSK format. However, if you choose to use more than eight (8) zones with the Radionics BFSK format, it is a
good idea to make every 8th zone (e.g., zones 1, 9, 17, etc.; zones 2, 10, 18, etc.; and so on) the same zone type
(e.g., Fire).
If you assign the zones in this manner, the letter “X” in the chart on the next page will be a digit that represents
every 8th zone number, as shown below:

23Trouble/Error Messages
The following paragraphs describe the possible trouble and error messages that can be displayed on touchpads
using an LCD.
23.1Troubles
PAPER
Printer is out of paper.
DATA LOST
Dialer has failed all of its attempts to communicate with the central station and the Model 4720 has
deleted the message(s) it was trying to send.
FAILED
Dialer cannot communicate with the central station. Appears in conjunction with DATA LOST.
BATTERY
Low or No Battery Conditio n.
Note: After power is restored—following a power loss that was long enough to cause a low battery condition—
the system may end up disarmed, regardless of the selection for “default mode” (see Section 17.1). Upon
receiving a Low-Battery Report from the panel, you should re arm the system either manually or by using
the downloading software.
AC
Loss of AC power.
LINE 1
Phone Line 1 is bad.
LINE 2
Phone Line 2 is bad (if using two (2) lines).
DEVICE 0
Problem with the Model 4720 dialer.
DEVICE 1
Problem with the Model 5260 Printer Interface (or the Model 5255 On-Site Printer).
DEVICE 2
Problem with Zone Expander 1.
DEVICE 3
Problem with Zone Expander 2.
DEVICE 4
Problem with the Model 4140 Intercom/Telephone Controller.
DEVICE 5
Problem with the Model 4150 External Control Module.
DEVICE 7

74
Page 85
Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
DOOR (1 - 15)
Indicates a door has been left open (or forced open) when using the door contact feature with
commercial touchpads (see Note 2 below).
1 - 80
Indicates which zone is in trouble.
When the RF system is used, the first line of the display wi ll show either LOW BATTERY or TROUBLE.
The second line of the display will show which zone has a low battery or which zone is in trouble.
Note 1: Trouble Audible may be silenced by pressing MUTE, MUTE. Troubles will also automatically silence
when the trouble condition is corrected—the only exception is Day-Trouble zones, which will latch into
trouble until manually silenced.
Note 2: The 4180 trouble output should not be used to indicate DOOR-FORCED, because local door trouble
indication is inhibited when other doors in the system are accessed. Door troubles will be reported and
printed, but local audible annunciation cannot be depended on.
23.2Errors
TRY AGAIN
This message means either an invalid code was used or the Model 4720 did not understand the
command.
RESTRICTED CODE
The code entered is incorrect for either the touchpad or the function that was being accessed.
RESTRICTED ZONE
A particular zone cannot be bypassed (shunted).
RESTRICTED TIME
Code was not entered within the time window selected during programming.
RESTRICTED DOOR
The code entered cannot be used to open that particular door.
24Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting this system, it is always best to begin by looking for the simplest possible causes for a
malfunction. Check that all wires a re proper ly conn ected to th eir termin als. C heck for ob vious wir ing defe cts such
as missing insulation, which may cause shorts.
Malfunctions in the system are often caused by problems in the accessories, detectors, and sensors that are attached
to the Model 4720. Make sure that all accessories and external devices are in good working order before you begin
to troubleshoot the Model 4720 Control/Communicator cabinet. Also make sure that the telephone line is in good
working order.
Among the common problems in a Control/Communicator are problems with the power supply. Check that all
fuses are in good working order. Make sure that the battery and its charger are properly attached and receiving
power from the AC line.
Wiring can be checked through simp le continuity t ests, using your anal og or dig ita l mul time ter. For 2-wire cables,
disconnect the cable at each end. Next, connect each of the probes of your meter to one of the two (2) wires, and
switch the meter to the ohmmeter functions. You should now see an almost infinite resistance between the two (2)
wires. A low resistance reading means that you have a short somewhere in the middle.
75
Page 86
Regency® Model 4720 Control/Communicator Installation Manual (P/N 150476, Rev. A) Revised 10/98
Next, use a clip wire and short the t wo (2) wires to ge ther at the f ar e nd of th e cabl e, aw ay fro m the oh mmet er. You
should now see almost no resistance on your ohmmeter. If you continue to see a very high resistance, one or both
of the wires have been cut somewhere along the cable run.
Try to determine the location of any cuts or shorts in the cable. Shorts can be repaired with electrical tape, and cuts
can usually be spliced. If it is difficult to determine where a cable malfunction is located, it may be best to run a
new cable.
25New features available with Revision N of the Model 4720
This section outlines the enhancements that are available with Revi sion N of the Model 4720.
25.1Sprinkler Supervisory Zone Type
With Revision N of the Model 4720, the sprinkler supervisory zone type replaces the gas zone type. F i gure
25.1a and the chart below show how to wire and program sprinkler supervisory zones.
With Revision J of the Model 4724-2 control chip and Revision C of the Model 4734-2 control chip, the
sprinkler supervisory zone type is now available.
If the Model 5520 Desktop Programmer or the Model 5540 Downloading Software you are using still
shows GAS for the “SUPERVISORY” zone type, you can change these display messages. (Do not change
the display unless you are working with a 4720, Revision N or later board.)
1. Enter System Messages menu.
2. Locate message for “LOW BATTERY” and change to “SUPERVISORY”.
3. Locate message for “GAS” and change to “SUPERVISORY”.
Note: Both Steps 2 and 3 are necessary.

25.2LCD Operational Changes
With Revision N, if an alarm, trouble, or supervisory condition exists, the LCD scrolls the words ALARM,
TROUBLE, or SUPERVISORY. You can then press STAT to display the zone number and location of
trouble and supervisory conditions. Press MEM to display the zone number and location of alarms.
25.3Memory Reporting During Auto Test
When an Auto Test occurs, the Model 4720 also sends a report of all unrestored events. It is not possible to
distinguish between old and new events during an Auto T est. Treat all alarms, troubles, and supervisories as
if they were new events. Note that memory reporting is not yet available with the Models 4724 and 4734.
