System Overview

General

Congratulations on your ownership of an ADEMCO Partitioned Security System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today. ADEMCO is the world's largest manufacturer of security systems and millions of premises are protected by ADEMCO systems.

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. To realize the system's full potential, it is important that you feel comfortable in operating it. Your system consists of at least one Keypad which provides full control of system operation, various sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection, plus a selected number of strategically placed smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and system status and provides appropriate information for display on the Keypad(s) used with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a central alarm monitoring station.

NOTE: If you have a Symphony (Advanced User Interface) and/or TeleSmart connected to your system, refer to the Symphony and TeleSmart User Guides for operating instructions for those units.

NOTE: All references in this manual for number of zones, number of user codes, number of access cards, and the event log capacity, use the VISTA-250BP’s features. The following table lists the differences between the VISTA-128BP and the VISTA-250BP control panels. Additionally, only the VISTA-128BP supports the capability to have a device duplicate keypad sounds at a remote location. All other features are identical for both panels.
