Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection
Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection
Heat-Activated Detectors

The following recommendations for the location of fire and burglary detection devices help provide
proper coverage for the protected premises.

Recommendations for Smoke and Heat Detectors

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72
noted below.

Early-warning fire dete ctio n is be st achie ve d by th e in stallatio n o f f ire de te ction equ ipm en t in all
rooms and areas of the household as follows: For minimum protection, a smoke detector should
be installed outside of each separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor
family living unit, includin g basements. The installation of sm oke detectors in kitc hens, attics
(finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally recommended.

For maximum protection, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detector s in
the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and
storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

In addition, we recommend the following:

• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.

• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or
completely closed. Smoke could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway
outside may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.

• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable
heaters, air conditioners, or humidifiers) are used.

• Install a smoke detector at bo th ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12
meters) long.

• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where
alarm control connections to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so
located, a fire within the room could prevent the control from reporting a fire or an
intrusion.

THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR

TEMPORAL PULSE SOUNDING FOR FIRE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.

Recommendations for Proper Intrusion Protection

For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or
commercial premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows
in a multi-level building.

In addition, we recommend th at radio backup be u sed in a security system so that alarm sig nals can
still be sent to the alarm monitorin g station in the event that the teleph one lines are out of order
(alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

Keypads That May Be Used

• Fixed-Word Display: 6127, 6128, 6137

• Alpha Display: 6138, 6139

• Up to 4 keypads, independe nt of auxiliary power con siderations (yo u may need to use an

auxiliary power supply if the 500mA aux. output is exceeded)

If you are going to use a 4285/4286 VIP Module, you MUST use addressable key pads (6128,
6137, 6138, 6139) in the system, but set to the non-addressable mode (address 31).

Wiring to the Keypads

1. Determine wire gauge by referring to the wiring length/gauge chart below.
For devices (keypads, RF receivers, etc.) connected to a single 4-wire run, determine the

current drawn by all units connected to the single wire run, then refer to the Wiring Run
chart to determine the maximum wire length that can be safely used for each wire size.
Current draw for all devices can be found in the
section.

NOTE: Refer to “Auxiliary Dev ice Current Draw Wo rksheet” in the
section for current draw for all keypads.

Maximum wire lengths for any device that is homerun to the c ontrol can also be determined
from the chart, based on the current draw of that device

The length of all wire runs must not exceed 1500 feet ( 457m) when unshielded quad c onductor
cable is used (750 feet if shielded cable is used) . This restric tion is due to the capacitive effect

on the data lines

when quad cable is used.

2. Run field wiring from the control to the keypads (using standard 4-conductor twisted
wire cable using the wire gauge determined in step 1).

3. Connect remote keypads to terminals 4, 5, 6, and 7 on the control board, as shown in

instructions provided with the keypad for address setting procedure.

2.

Mount the keypads

at a height that is convenient for the user. Refer to the instructions

provided with the keypad for mounting procedure.
You can either surface mount or flush mount keypads (using an appropriate Trim Ring

Kit: 6139TRK). Refer to the mounting instructions and template included with the
keypad and/or trim ring kit for specific information.

Supplementary Power for Additional Keypads

The control provides 500mA for powering keypads (up to a maximum of 4) and o ther devices
from the auxiliary po wer output. The backup battery w ill supply power to th ese keypads in
the event that AC power is lost.

When the control’s auxiliary power load for all devices exceeds 500mA, you can power
additional keypads from a regulated, 12VDC power supply (e.g., 487-12 supplies 12V, 250mA;
488-12 supplies 12V, 500mA). Use a UL Listed, battery-backed supply for UL installations.

The 487-12/488-12 power supplies have a backup battery that can power these keypads in the
event of AC power loss.

Preliminary Checkout Procedure

If you want to check that the system is working before connecting field wiring from zones and
devices, do the following:

1. Temporarily connect a 1000 ohm end-of-line resistor across each of the basic hardwire
zones 1–6, as shown in the Summary of Connections diagram.

Without actual zone wiring or EOL resistors connected, the key pads in the system will not
display the “Ready” message.

2. Power-up the system temporar ily by plugging the AC transformer (previously wired to the
control) into a 120VAC outlet.

–

3. Busy
After approximately 1 minute*, the green READY LED (or POWER LED on some types of

keypads) should light, and the word "

Installing the 5800TM Module

Installation of this module is necessary only if you are using one or more 5827BD Wireless
Bi-directional keypads, 5804 or 5804BD Transmitters (wireless keys).

Mounting the 5800TM Module

The 5800TM must be located next to the RF receiver (between one and two feet from the
receiver’s antennas). The 5800TM must not be installed within the control cabinet. Mount
the unit using its accompanying mounting bracket.

Wiring the 5800TM Module

Connect the 5800TM to the control panel’s keypad connection terminals, using the supplied
connector with flying leads, as follows:

Wire Terminal on Control

BLACK (Ground) Terminal 4
RED (+12VDC) Terminal 5
GREEN (Data to Control) Terminal 6
YELLOW (Data from Control) Terminal 7
BLUE Not Used

Do not cut any of the jumpers on the 5800TM when using it with the VISTA-10SE.
For additional information, refer to the 5800TM’s instructions.

Section 5 - Wireless Expansion

About Jam Detection and Reporting

When field ✱22, option 4 (RF SYSTEM) is selected, a 5800 Series receiver detecting a jam
condition sends an E344 (RF Receiver Jam Detect) Contact ID report to the central station.
At the same time, a Rcvr Jam (on alpha keypads) or CHECK 90 (on fixed-word keypads)
message alternates with the present system message on the keypad. When the jam condition
is cleared, a Restore message is sent to the CS. Entering a code and OFF restores the
keypad display.

The default for this option is 0 (disabled).

Normal use of a 5827 wireless keypad may cause a false RF jam message to be displayed in
systems that have been programmed for RF Jam Detection.

using the
the control via the downloader. 5800 Series transmitters (except 5827, described separately)
do not have DIP switches.

Program each transmitter's zone number into the system using
Zone Programming section). Some transmitters, such as the 5816 and 5817, can support
more than one “zone” (referred to as loops or inputs). On the 5816, for example, the wire
connection terminal block is loop 1, the reed contact is loop 2. Each loop must be assigned a
different zone number.

U

L

The 5816 and 5817 transmitters do not have EOL supervision of their loop wiring. Therefore, for
UL Household Burglary installations, the loop wiring may not exceed 3 feet.

5-3

VISTA-10SE Installation and Setup Guide

For button transmitters (RF keys), such as the 5801, 5804, and 5804BD, you must assign a
unique zone number to each individual button used on the transmitter. Each button on the
transmitter also has a pre-designated loop or input number, which is automatically displayed
on the keypad.

Programming an RF House ID

Programming an RF House ID (01–31) in field
5827BD Wireless Keypads or 5804BD Transmitters. An RF House ID is not necessary for
other 5800 Series Transmitters, and the entry should be left at 00 (default) in those cases.

The 5827 reports low-battery status as zone 00.

Transmitter Supervision

Except for some transmitters that may be carried off-premises (5802, 5802CP, 5803, 5804,
5804BD, 5827, and 5827BD), each transmitter is supervised by a check-in signal that is sent
to the receiver at 70-90 minute intervals. If at least one check-in is not received from each
supervised transmitter within a 12-hour period, the “missing” transmitter number(s) and the
message CHECK is displayed.

In accordance with ULC standards, the RF supervision period for the VISTA-10SE is three hours
for fire zones (Zone Type 9) and 12 hours for all other zone types.

✱

24 is necessary only if you are using 5827 or

The supervision for a particular transmitter in the system that may also be carried off the
premises (5801, 5802MN) may be turned off by enrolling it as a “UR” (unsupervised RF) type,
as described later.

5800 Series transmitters have built-in tamper protection and annunciate as a Check
condition if covers are removed.

Transmitter Input Types

All of the transmitters described have one or more unique, factory-a ssigned input (loop) ID
codes. Each of the inputs requires its own programming zone (for example: a 5804's four
inputs require four programming zones). Refer to the ZONE PROGRAMMING section.

Transmitters can be enrolled as one of the following types:

Type Description
RF

(Supervised RF)

UR
(Unsupervised RF)

BR
(Unsupervised Button RF)

Transmitter Battery Life

Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low­battery signals. The transmitter must remain within the receiver's
range.

Sends all the signals that the “RF” type does, but the control does
not supervise the check-in signals. The transmitter may therefore be
carried off-premises.

Sends only fault signals. It will not send a low-battery signal until it is
activated. The transmitter may be carried off-premises.

5-4

Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until you are ready to enroll the transmitters

during system programming. After enrolling, batteries need not be removed.

Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4 to 7 years, depending on the
environment, usage, and the specific wireless device being used. Factors such as humidity,
extreme temperatures, as well as large temperature variations may all reduce the actual
battery life in a given installation.

The wireless system can identify a true low-battery situation, thus allowing the dealer or
user of the system time to arrange a change of battery and maintain protection for that point
within the system.

Some transmitters (e.g., 5802, 5802CP, and 5804) contain long-life but nonreplaceable
batteries, and no ba ttery installati on 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, 5802MN/MN2, 5802CP, and 5804) should be
periodically tested for battery life.

The 5802MN and 5804 Button Transmitters have replaceable batteries.

Using the Transmitter Sniffer Mode

The Transmitter Sniffer mode is a procedure that verifies that all transmitters have been
properly programmed. To verify programming, refer to the TESTING THE SYSTEM section.

Relay Device Basics

Relays are programmable switches that can be used to perform many different functions.
They can be used to turn lights on and off, control sounders, or for status indications. In this
system, each relay must be programmed as to how to act (ACTION), when to activate
(START), and when to deactiva te (STOP). Each of these is described below.

The control supports a total of 4 output relays.

The 4204 Relay modules provide Form C (normally open and normally closed) contacts.

In ✱80 and ✱81 interactive modes, a series of keypad prompts will request entries for
programming of the Relay outputs used in the system. Refer also to “OUTPUT RELAY

VISTA-10SE Installation and Setup Guide

4204 Setup

The 4204 unit can be mounted e ither remote ly or in the control p anel. The follo wing ste ps
should be taken to properly set up the 4204:

1. Connect the 4204 to the control's remote keypad terminals (4–7), using the
connector supplied with the 4204. Use standard 4-conductor twisted cable for long
wiring runs.

2. Set the 4204's DIP switch for a device address of "1" (switch 2 "OFF" and switches
3, 4, and 5 "ON"). Switch 1 determines the unit's cover tamper response ("ON" =
disabled, "OFF" = enabled).

3. Con nect the des ired fie ld wiri ng to th e unit's r elay c ontact te rmin als. See Figure 10
below.

General Information

The 4285/4286 VIP Module is an add-on accessory for the VISTA–10SE that permits access to
the security system via a TouchTone phone (either on premises or by a call-in when away).

The VIP Module can announce many of the same words that would normally be displayed on
an alpha keypad under the same system conditions.

When using the VIP Module, addressable keypads must be used in the system, but set to the
non-addressable mode (address 31); i.e., do not use a 6127 keypad.

When properly connected, the VIP Module will enable the user to do the following via a
TouchTone telephone:

•

Receive synthesized voice messages over the phone regarding the status of the security

system.

•

Arm and disarm the security system and perform most other commands using the

telephone keypad, with voice annunciation provided over the phone as confirmation after
a command is entered.

The phone used f or p ho ne acce ss must h ave To uc hTo ne capability , tho u gh Tou ch Ton e se rv ice
is not necessary (if premises uses PULSE dialing, switchable phones must be set for
TouchTone temporarily before attempting phone access).

A Pho ne Access User's Guide for phone access to the security system is provided with the
VIP Module for the user of the system.

VIP Module Wiring

The VIP Module is wired between the control panel and the premises handset(s). It listens
for touch-tones on the phone line and reports them to the control panel. During on-premises
phone access, it powers the premises phones; during off-premises phone access, it seizes the
line from the premises phones and any answering machines.

NOTE: The phone lines must be in service for the VIP Module to function, even when

accessing the system from an on-premises phone.

1. Make 12V (+) an d (–) and data in and data out connections from the VIP Module to the
control, using the connector cable supplied with the VIP Modul e (see Figure 10).

Programming the Control for Phone Access

To program the control for phone access using the 4285/4286 VIP Module, you must assign a

✱

VIP Module access code (

26) and ring detection count (✱95). Also, you may optionally select
words and/or form custom words that would be displayed on the keypad. Refer to THE DATA
FIELD DESCRIPTION and ALPHA DESCRIPTOR PROGRAMMING sections for specific
programming details.

Perform a preliminary check of the VIP Module, as indicated next.

Checking the Operation of the VIP Module

To Check VIP Module Operation From an On-Premises Phone

1. Pick up the phone and enter the programmed 2-digit VIP Module access code.

Annunciation of a system status report should automatically start. See the User Guide
accompanying the VIP Module for detailed information regarding the nature of the status
report, if necessary.

2. During any pause in the status report, or immediately following it, key the following via

the keypad on the phone:

4111 (Installer code) + 1 (OFF).

You should hear a beep on the phone and from a wired keypad. You should als o hear the
words, "Disarmed...Ready to Arm" or "Disarmed...Not Ready to Arm," indicating that
the command was entered successfully. (The voice message, "Disarmed...Not Ready to
Arm" indicates an open zone).

3. Hang up the phone.

To Check VIP Module Operation from an Off-Premises Phone:

1. Have someone dial the premises phone number, using a TouchTone phone.

•

If the phone system does not include an answ ering machine, the caller hears 2 long
tones, followed by a voice prompt "

HELLO, ENTER PHONE CODE NOW

must enter the programmed 2-digit phone code (entered in field

MODULE ACCESS CODE)

•

If the premises phone system includes an answering machine, the 2-digit phone

.

code must be entered during a pause at the beginning of, or during, the outgoing
answering machine message. Then the caller hears a voice prompt asking for entry of
the 4-digit system code ( "

ENTER SYSTEM CODE NOW

2. The caller sh ould then enter the Installer Code ( 4111). As a safety feature , there is a 3-

try limit in which to enter each code (phone code and system code), after which time the
call-in is aborted. Also, if no keys are pressed for a period of 20 seconds, the call-in is
aborted.
Annunciation of a system status report will start if both codes were entered correctly.

3. During an y pause in the statu s report, or imme diately follo wing it, the caller sh ould key

the following via the keypad on the phone:
Installer Code (4111), then 1 (OFF).
The caller should hear a beep from the phone and a wired keypad on the premises. The

caller should also hear the words "Disarmed...Ready to Arm" or "Disarmed...Not

Ready to Arm" on the phone, indicating that the command was entered successfully.
"Disarmed...Not Ready to Arm" would indicate an open zone.

4. At this point, the caller can hang up the phone.

VISTA-10SE Installation and Setup Guide

Sounder Connections and Power

The VISTA-10SE provides a 12VDC output, which can power external alarm sounders, bells,
or sirens (see table of compa tible sounders on a previous page). This output activates a
sounder when an alarm occurs.

Make connections to alarm output terminals 3 (+) and 4 (–). See Figure 12 below.

The total current drawn from the alarm output and the auxiliary power output, combined, cannot

exceed 600mA. In addition, the sounding device must be a UL Listed audible signal appliance

U

L

rated to operate in a 10.2-13.8VDC range. Example: Wheelock Signals Inc. siren model 34T-12
(provides 85dBA for NFPA 74 and Standard 985).

Non-UL Installations

The total current drawn from this output cannot exceed 2 amps. A battery must be installed
because the battery supplies this current.

Going beyond the limits indicated (2 amps) will overload the power supply, and cause the
electronic circuit protecting the sounder output to trip.

Sounder Supervision

The VISTA-10SE contains a sounder (Bell) supervision option. To activate the Bell
supervision option:

1. Cut the red Bell Supervision Jumper located above terminals 2 and 3 on the control board.

See Figure 13 below.

2. Connect a 1k ohm resistor across the terminals of the last sounding device, not across the

control's terminals.

About Audio Alarm Verification

An Audio Alarm Verification (AAV) module, such as the Eagle 1250, is an add-on accessory
that permits voice dialog betwe en an ope rator at a central station and a person at the alarm
installation, for the purpose of alarm verification.

To enable the AAV feature, enter option “4” in field ✱91 Option Selection (AAV), select Contact ID
report format for the primary phone number, and program alarm reports for the primary phone
number.

U

L

The AAV option

After all messages have been sent during a reporting session to the primary phone number,
the control triggers the AAV if at least one of the messages was an Alarm report. The control
sends a listen-in-to-follow message (Contact ID event code 606), which signals the 685 (the
central station receiver) to hold the phone connection for 1 minute.

cannot

be used in UL installations.

Once the digital message is “kissed off,” the control gives up the phone line to the AAV
module, without breaking connection with the central station. At this time, all sirens and all
continuous keypad sounds are shut off.

You must connect a 4204 Relay Module when using an AAV unit. Do not use relay output number

Earth Ground Connections

The designated earth ground terminal (21) must be terminated in a good earth ground for
the lightning transient protective devices in this product to be effective.

The following are examples of good earth grounds available at most installa tions:

Metal Cold Water Pipe:

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

AC Power Outlet Ground:

Available from 3-prong, 120VAC, power outlets only. To test the integrity of the ground
terminal, use a three-wire circuit tester with neon lamp indicators, such as the UL-Listed
Ideal Model 61–035, or equivalent, available at most electrical supply stores.

AC Power-Up

To turn on AC power, perform the following steps:

1. Plug the 1321/1321CN into a 24-hour, unswitched 120VAC outlet.

Following power-up, one of the following i s displayed on the keypad: AC, dI (dis abled);
BUSY STANDBY (on alpha keypads); or NOT READY (on fixed-word keypads). The
green POWER LED (or READY LED on some keypads) should light.

2. After approximately 1 minute, the initial displays revert to DISARMED...READY TO

ARM for alpha keypads, or READY for fixed-word keypads (if there are no faulted
zones). This 1-minute delay allows PIRs, etc. to stabilize.

To bypass this delay, press: # + 0.
NOTE: If you do not get the “READY” displays described above, refer to “Trouble

Conditions” in the SYSTEM OPERATION section.

Calculating the Battery Size Needed

Determine the total device current draw after filling in the AUXILIARY DEVICE CURRENT
DRAW WORKSHEET that follows. To this figure add the 100mA that is drawn by the control
panel itself. Then, to determine the battery size needed, use the following formula:

Total Current Drawn* x Number of hours standby wanted = Battery Ampere/Hours.

* Convert mA figure to decimal Amps (see example that follows).

Example: If total auxiliary device current drain is 450mA, add 100mA for the control panel,
for a total of 550mA (0.55 amps); if 24-hour standby is wanted, the calculation is:

0.55A x 24 hours = 13.2 Ampere/Hour battery needed

In this example, two 7 Amp/Hr batteries (connected in paral lel) must be used.

AUXILIARY DEVICE CURRENT DRAW WORKSHEET

Connecting the Backup Battery

In the event of an AC power loss, the control panel is supported by a backup, rechargeable
Sealed Lead Acid battery. The range of battery sizes recommended are: 12VDC; 4AH-

17.2AH. See "Calculating the Battery Size Needed" earlier in this section. The battery is
installed in the control cabinet.

Making the Battery Connections

1. Use the battery standby formula (above) to select the appropriate battery for the

installation.

Do not connect the battery until all devices have been wired to the control.

2. Attach the red and black battery wires from the control board to the battery as follows:

Red to the positive (+) terminal on the battery.

•

Black to the negative (–) terminal on the battery.

•

Section 11 – Final Power-Up

L

Battery Tests

Use a 4AH battery or larger for UL installations. Calculate the actual battery size needed by
referring to the proper paragraph in this section.

The standby battery is automatically tested every 4 hours, beginning 4 hours after exiting
Programming mode or after a system reset. In addition, entry into the Test mode causes a
battery test to be initiated.

If the battery cannot sustain a load, a LOW BATTERY message is displayed and, if so
programmed, is reported to the central station. In addition, the connection t o the battery is
checked every 3 minutes (a CSFM requirement). If there is no battery detected, or a low­battery condition is detected, a LOW BATTERY message is displayed and a report is sent to
the central station.

About Programming

This section provides inf ormation on how programming is pe rformed in this system. It will
enable you to understand how to enter and exit the Programming mode, and how to program
the data fields and the user-friendly Interactive Menu modes (
therefore urge you to read and understand the following before proceeding with any
programming.

If RF zones or relays are used, the following applicable program fields

There are two programming modes: Data Field programming and Interactive (Menu) mode
programming. Data Field programming is used for setting various system options.
Interactive programming is used for programming zone information, programming relay
outputs, inserting alpha descriptors (or custom words), and enrolling transmitter serial
numbers.

To program the system, you must use a 6139 2-line alpha keypad connected to the keypad
terminals on the control (4, 5, 6, and 7).
The alpha keypad need not remain in the system after programming.

Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer’s office/home, using an IBM
personal computer, a modem, and COMPASS downloading software. See th e REMOTE
PROGRAMMING AND CONTROL (DOWNLOADING) section.

Entering the Program Mode

You may use one of the following methods:

Fields

Relays and output devices are not recommended for life safety applications.

The letter(s) in parentheses after each function described below, such as (A) after ACTION,
are those that appear in the various summary displays of programmed data during
programming.

ACTION (A) The "ACTION" of the relay is how the relay will respond when it is

80 (this section) and ✱81 (the Zone List section that follows). The options used to s tart

activated by the "START" programming. You may want the relay to
activate momentarily, to pulse on and off continuously, or to remain
activated until some other event occurs to stop it. There are four different
choices of actions:

• ACTIVATE for 2 SECONDS and then reset.

• ACTIVATE and REMAIN ACTIVATED until stopped by some other

event.

• PULSE ON and OFF until stopped by some other event.

• NOT USED when the relay is not used.

START (STT) The "START" programming determines when and under what conditions

the relay will be activated. The following START options are available

1. EVENT (EV) is the condition (alarm, faul t, trouble) that must occur to a
zone or group of zones (zone list) in order to activate the relay. These
conditions apply only when a zone list is used. The different choices for
"EVENT" are listed below and in the “Programming Output Devices”
paragraph that follows.

• ALARM Relay action begins upon any alarm in an assigned zone in

the zone list.

• FAULT Relay action begins upon any opening or short in an assigned

zone in the zone list.

:

16–1

• TRO UBLE Re lay action begins u pon an y trouble cond ition in an assign ed
zone in the zone list.

• NOT USED Relay action is not dependent upon one of the above events.

2. ZONE LIST (ZL) is a group of zones to which the “EVENT” applies in order
to activate a particular relay. Note th at there are a total o f 3 zone lists that
can be programmed in field
Fault or Trouble) occurs in any zone in the sele cted “Start” ZONE LIST (1,
2, or 3), activation of the selected relay will START.

3. ZONE TYPE/SYSTEM OPERATION (ZT). If a System Operation, such
as “DISARMING” or “ANY FIRE ALARM,” is to activate the relay, the
appropriate choice would also be entered under the “ZONE TYPE” option.
“ZONE TYPE” is used independently of the “EVENT/ZONE LIST”
combination.

If a specific "ZONE TYPE" is chosen, any zone of that response type going
into alarm, trouble, or fault will cause the relay to activate as selected in
"ACTION.” If the same “ZONE TYPE” is also chosen for the STOP
programming, any zone of that type that restores will de-activate the relay.

If a "SYSTEM OPERATION" is chosen (e.g., End of Exit Time), that
operation will cause the relay to activate as selected in "ACTION.” The
different choices for "ZONE TYPE" and "SYSTEM OPERATION" are listed in
“Programming Output Devices” later in this section, and in the Programmin g
Form.

STOP (STP): The "STOP" programming determines when and under what conditions the

relay will be de-activated. The following options are available:

✱

81 mode; when the selected EVENT (Alarm,

1. RESTORE ZONE LIST (ZL). If a "ZONE LIST" is used as the “Stop”
event, the relay will de-activate when all the zones in that list restore from a
previous fault, trouble, or alarm condition. This will occur regardless of what
is programmed to "START" the relay; therefore, a "RESTO RE ZONE LIST"
would normally only be used when a "ZONE LIST" is used to start the relay.

2. ZONE TYPE/SYSTEM OPERATION (ZT). Instead of using a "RESTORE
ZONE LIST," a specific zone (response) type or system operation action can
be selected to de-activate the relay.

If a specific "ZONE TYPE" is chosen, any zone of that response type that
restores from a previous alarm, trouble, or fault condition will cause the
relay to de-activate.

If a "SYSTEM OPERATION" is chosen, that operation will cause the relay to
de-activate. The different choices for "ZONE TYPE" and "SYSTEM
OPERATION" are listed in “Programming Output Devices” later in this
section, and in the Programming Form.

If relay outputs are used, two keypad entries av ailable to the user are included
among the system operation choices (34 and 35) that may be programmed.
They can manually activate or de-activate the relay(s) for starting or stopping
some action, such as turning lights on or off, etc.

These entries are:

About Remote Programming

The VISTA–10SE can be remotely programmed from an IBM compatible
Personal Computer (PC) a modem, and ADEMCO’s
software.

Programming the control from a remote location is protected against compromise by someone
attempting to defeat the system, using multi-levels of security protection:

1. Security Code Handshake: An 8-digit download ID code must be matched
between the control and the downloader.

2. Site-Initiated Remote Programming: Telco Hand-off feature allows the
technician at the site to call the downloading facility from the control panel phone
line, initiate a site downlo ad (Installer or Master Code + # + 1), and th e control
will immediately be on-line with the modem at the downloading facility. Also, if a
local computer has a modem, the telephone line terminals of the control can be
connected to the modem, and a direct download connection can be established
with the new downloader program.

3. Station-Initiated Remote Programming: The operator calls the site from
your office to initiate the dow nload call. Th e con trol hang s up and then calls back
the PC via the pre-programmed telephone number. The unit can then be
uploaded, downloaded, or controlled from your office.

Compass

Windows downloading

U

The control can also be set for no callback by the downloader.

4. Data Encryption: Data passed between the PC and the control is encrypted for
security so that it is very difficult for a foreign device tapped into the phone line
to take over communication and substitute system-compromising information.

Downloading is not permissible for UL installations unless an installer is present at

L

the installation site.

19–1

VISTA-10SE Installation and Setup Guide

Equipment Required

At the premises:

VISTA–10SE and keypad.

At the installer's office/home:

An IBM PC-compatible computer.
Either a SMARTMODEM 1200 (Level 1.2 or higher external or Level 1.1 or higher

[with 4 position DIP switch] internal style), or an Optima 24 Plus FAX96 Modem.
ADEMCO’s Compass Windows downloading software.
Appropriate interconnecting cables.

Remote Programming Information

The downloading system can perform many functions when in communication with the
control unit. Besides uplo ading and downloading, the status of the system can be observe d
and various commands can be initiated, as follows:

Arm the system in the AWAY mode; disarm the system.
Bypass a zone.
Shut down communication (dialer) functions (e.g., for non-payment of monitoring fees

in an owned system).

Panel Communication with Central Station

This section provides an explanation of formats this system accommodates for reporting
alarms and other system conditions to the central station. The process of a successful
transmission consists of both the method of communication between the control panel and
the central station receive r; and the actual way the information is sent and displayed at the
central station.

Report Code Formats

When the panel calls the central statio n receiver, it w aits to hear a “handshake” frequency
from the receiver to confirm that the receiver is on-line and ready to receive its message.
Once the panel he ars the h andshake it is pro grammed to listen f or, it sen ds its messag e. The
panel then waits for a “kissoff” frequency from the receiver acknowledging that the message
was received and understood.

If the handshake freque ncy is not giv en or is not u nderstoo d by the pane l, the panel w ill not
send its message. Once the handshake frequency is received and understood by the panel,
the panel will send its message. If there is an error in the transmission ( the rece iver does no t
receive a “valid” message), the kissoff frequency will not be given by the central station
receiver.

The panel will make a total of eight attempts to the primary telephone number and eight
attempts to the secondary telephone number (if programmed) to get a valid message through.
If the panel is not successful after its numerous attempts, the keypad will display
“Communication Failure” (on an alpha keypad) or “FC” (on a fixed-word keypad).

The following chart defines the three sets of (handshake/kissoff) frequencies that the panel
supports and the different formats that can be sent for each.

Repeat above steps 1, 2, and 3, and then step 4 with the new Duress Code.

To delete the Duress Code

Perform steps 1, 2, and 3, and then stop. When the keypad beeps once, it signifies that the
code has been deleted.

Keypad Functions

Note that if you enabled QUICK ARM (field ✱21), you can press the [#] key instead of
entering the security code, for any of the arming procedures (AWAY, STAY, INSTANT, or
MAXIMUM). The security code is always required, however, when disarming the system.

NOTE: The “Quick Arm” feature will func tion on ly if the Master Co de has be en p rogramme d
(see Assigning the Master Code on a previous page).

The keypad displays zone descriptors and allows the user to perform such system functions
as arming and disarming the system, and bypassing zones. Zone and system conditions
(alarm, trouble, bypass) are displayed in the display window.

When an alarm occurs, keypad sounding and external sounding occur, and the zone(s) in
alarm are displayed on the key pad. Pressing any key w ill silence the keypad so under for 10
seconds. Disarming the system will silence both keypad and external sounders. When the
system is disarmed, any zones th at were in an alarm cond ition during the armed period w ill
be displayed (memory of alarm). To clear this display, simply repeat the disarm sequence
(enter the security code and press the [OFF] key) again.

The keypads also feature chime annunciation, and 3 panic key pairs, or individual panic keys
(depending on keypad type – see Panic Keys on next page), for silent, audible, fire, or
personal emergency alarms. These keys can notify the central station of an alarm condition,
if that service is connected.

Test Procedures

After installation is completed, the system should be carefully tested, as follows:

1. With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If a NOT READY

✱

message is displayed, press the [
zone(s) if necessary, so that the READY message is displayed.

2. Enter the security code and press the TEST key.
The external sounder will sound for 1 second. If the backup battery is discharged or

missing, the sounder may not turn on and a LOW BATTERY rep ort will be transmitted
with a TEST report.

Note that the keypad will bee p on ce ev ery 40 secon ds as a remin der th at the sy stem is in
the Test mode.

3. Fault and restore every sensor individually to assure that it is being monitored by the
system. Each time a protection zone is faulted, the keypad will sound 3 beeps, and the
identification of each faulted protection zone should appear on the keypad display.

NOTE: For 5800 wireless systems, triggering a zo ne set to Arm–AWAY, Arm–STAY, or

Disarm will take the system out of the TEST mode and cause that action.

4. Walk in front of any interior motion detectors (if used) and listen for the required sound
as movement is detected. The identification of the detector should appear on the display
when it is activated.

NOTE: Wireless motion detectors (passive infrared units) will send signals out only if

they have been inactive for 3 minutes.

5. Follow the manuf acturer's instruc tions to test all smoke d etectors, to ensure that all are
functioning properly. The identification of each detector should appear on the display
when each is activated.

6. Turn off the test mode by entering the security code and pressing the [OFF] key.

Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests.
Notify CS personnel in advance that tests will be in progress.

7. Arm the system (STA Y) and fault o ne or mo re perim eter zon es. After 15 sec onds, sile nce
alarm sounder(s) by entering the security code and pressing [OFF].

Arm the system AWAY, and check the Entry/Exit zones for the programmed exit and
entry delays.

8. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by usin g the Pan ic keys ( or key
pairs on some keypads). If a key (or key pair) has been programmed for audible
emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm sound, and ALARM and zone number
will be displayed.

If a key (or key pair) has been programmed for fire, the keypad and external sounder will
emit an interrupted alarm sound, and ALARM, FIRE and zone number will be
displayed.

Silence alarms by entering the security code and pressing [OFF] key.

9. If Output Relay Units have been installed, test their programmed action.

10. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.

To test the wireless part of the system and the RF Receiver, perform the two following tests:
Transmitter Sniffer Mode and Go/NoGo Test Mode.

Transmitter Sniffer Mode

Make sure the system is disarmed before trying to enter this mode.

Key Ins taller Code + [#] + [3]. This initiates a pr ocedure that will check that all 5800

Series transmitters have been properly programmed.
NOTE: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the central

station, the system will not go into the Sniffer mode. If so, wait a few
minutes, and try again.

The keypad will display all zone numbers of wireless units programmed into the
system. As the system receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone
number of that transmitter will disappear from the display. The transmitter codes
may be checked upon installation, or in an installed system.

All the wireless zone numbers should disappear after about 1-1/2 hours.
NOTE: An y transmitter that is not properly entered into the system will not turn

off its zone number.

Exit the Transmitter Sniffer mode by keying Installer code + [OFF].

Go/No Go Test Mode

By keying Installer code + [#] + [4], a mode similar to the te st mode is e ntered , but
the wireless receiver gain is reduced. Checking in this mode not only assists in
determining go od mounting location s for the transmitters when the system is being
installed, but also verifies that the RF transmissio n has sufficient signal amplitude
margin for the installed system.

Enter the Installer code + [#] + [4].

1.

Once transmitters are placed in their desired locations and the approximate

2.

length of wire to be run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw
terminals, fault each transmitter. Do not conduct this test with your hand

wrapped around the transmitter, as this will cause inaccurate results.

•

The keypad will beep three times to indicate signal reception.

•

If the keypad does not beep, re-orient or move the transmitter to another
location. Usually a few inches in either direction is all that is required.

Exit the Go/NoGo mode by keying Installer code + [OFF].

3.

TO THE INSTALLER

Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the ins taller and fre quent testing by t he user are vital to
continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm sy stem.

The installer should as sume the re sponsibility of developing and offering a r egular maintenanc e progr am to the user
as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm system and its component
parts. Recomme ndations must be included f or a specific pro gram of frequent tes ting (at least weekly) to insure the
system's proper operation at all times.

Limitations and Warranties

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

WARNING

THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

While this System is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or other
emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of
reasons. For example:

• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smo ke detectors, and many other sensing devices will no t work without power.
Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with de ad batteries, or if the batteries are no t put in properly. Devices
powered solely by AC will not work if their AC po wer supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

• Signals sent by wireless transmitter s may be bloc ked or r eflected by m etal befo re they re ach the alarm r eceive r. Even if the signal
path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.

• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.

• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not activate or

provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows.
Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke
cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may
not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or
basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In
general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent
explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or
arson. Depending on the nature of the fire and/or location of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated,
may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.

• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation
manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and
intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those be ams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes
place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking,
painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability.
Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of the protected area approaches
the temperature range of 90° to 105°F (32° to 40°C), the detection performance can decrease.

• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side
of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices are located on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are
less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is
muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices,
however loud, may not warn hearing-impaire d people .

• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.

• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselves
from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.

• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as
long as 20 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

The most common cause of an alarm system no t functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm
system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly. The security keypad (and remote
keypad) should be tested as well.

Wireless transmitters (used in some systems) are designed to provide long battery life under normal operating conditions. Longevity of
batteries may be as much as 4 to 7 years, de pending on the envir onment, usage , and the specific wire less device being use d. External
factors such as humidity, high or low temperatur es, as well as larg e swings in temperatur e, may all re duce the actual batter y life in a
given installation. This wireless system, ho wever, can identify a true low battery situation, thus allowing tim e to arrange a change of
battery to maintain protection for that given point within the system.

Installing an alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance rate, but an alarm system is not a substitute for
insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to
insure their lives and property.

We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to
learn about these developments.
