Installation and Setup Guide

System Status Report Codes

Zone report codes are programmed using interactive ✱56 or ✱58 Zone Programming modes, while system status (non-alarm) codes and restore codes are entered in data fields *59 - *68, *70 - *76, *89. The actual report code digits that you enter depend upon the particular installation, and should agree with the Central Station office receiving the signals.

3+1 or 4+1 Standard Format: Enter a code in the

first box: 1–9, A, B, C, D, E, or F. Enter #+10 for A (this reports a 0 on some receivers), #+11 for B, #+12 for C, #+13 for D, #+14 for E, #+15 for F.

An entry of 0 in the first box disables a report. Entering 0 in the second box advance to the next field. Expanded or 4+2 Format: Enter codes in both boxes (first/second digits) for 1–9 or A–F, as described above. A 0 in the first box disables a report. A 0 in the second box eliminates the expanded message for that report.

ADEMCO Contact ID® Reporting: Enter a digit in the first box to enable the zone to report. Use a different digit for each zone until you have used up available digits. If the number of zones exceeds the number of available digits, begin with digit 1 again. This is an “enabling” code only and is not the actual code sent to the Central Station office. Entries in the second boxes are ignored. An entry of 0 in the first box disables the report.

UL Report codes are required in fields *61, *65, *71, *72, for UL Commercial Burglar Alarm installations.

Report codes are required in fields *60, *62, *63, *64, *70, *73, *74, *75, *76, for UL Commercial Burglar Alarm installations and required for Residential Fire Alarm installations.

*59 Exit Error Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above

V20PSIA/V15PSIA: [1] Always enabled. Also see field *69.

After arming the system, entry/exit and interior zones remaining open after exit delay expires cause an alarm sound at the keypad and external sounder (keypad also displays “EXIT ALARM”), and entry delay begins. Disarming before the end of the entry delay stops the alarm sounding and no message is sent to the central station. The keypad will display “CA” (fixed-word) or “ALARM CANCELED” (alpha display).

If the system is not disarmed before entry delay expires, an “EXIT ALARM” message (V20PSIA/V15PSIA: also zone alarm message) will be sent to the central station. The keypad will display “EA” (fixed-word ) or “EXIT ALARM” (alpha display), and alarm sounding continues until the system is disarmed (or timeout occurs).

An Exit Alarm condition will also result if a fault occurs in an exit or interior zone within 2 minutes following the end of the exit delay, and an “EXIT ALARM” message will be sent to the central station (except for V20PSIA/V15PSIA, see field *69 Recent Closing

report). With Contact ID format, the message will contain the zone number and error code 374 (“ALARM–EXIT ERROR”).

*60 Trouble Report Code

(0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent if a zone has a trouble condition. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.

*61 Bypass Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent when a zone is manually bypassed. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.

*62 AC Loss Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Timing of this report is random with up to a 4-hour delay. If AC restores before the report goes out, there is no “AC RESTORE” report. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.

*63 Low Bat Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent when the system’s backup battery has a low-battery condition. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.

*64 Test Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent periodically to test that the communicator and phone lines are operational. See System Reporting UL Note above *59. Frequency of report is set in Scheduling mode (event 11) or by the following key commands:

installer code + [#] + 0 + 0 = test report sent every 24 hrs installer code + [#] + 0 + 1 = test report sent once per week installer code + [#] + 0 + 2 = test report sent every 28 days

Each of these modes sets schedule 32 (VISTA-20P) or 8 (VISTA-15P) to the selected repeat option; first test report sent 12 hours after command†.

†NOTE: Make sure the Real-Time Clock is set to the proper time before entering the test report schedule command to ensure that test reports are sent when expected. (see Setting the Real-Time Clock section)

*65 Open Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent upon disarming the system in the selected partitions. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.

*66 Arm Away/Stay Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

This option allows for independent programming of Away and Stay reports for each partition, including the common lobby.

NOTE: “OPEN” reports are not sent if the associated closing report is not enabled.

*67 RF Trans. Low Batt. Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent when a transmitter low-battery condition exists. UL installations: must be enabled if wireless devices are used.

*68 Cancel Report Code

0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59

Sent upon disarming the system after an alarm condition was reported.

V20PSIA/V15PSIA: [10] Report enabled.
