TO ENTER PROGRAMMING MODE:

Local programming requires the use of an alpha keypad connected to the keypad terminals on the control.

A.POWER UP, then depress [] and [#] both at once, within 50 seconds of powering up (if 98 was used to exit program mode, this method must be used to reenter program mode).

OR

B.Initially, key: Installer Code (4 + 1 + 1 + 2) plus 8 + 0 + 0.

DATA FIELD PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES

Task

Procedure

Go to a Data Field

Press [] + [Field Number], followed by the required entry.

Entering Data

When the desired field number appears, simply make the required entry. When the last entry for a

 

field is entered, the keypad beeps three times and automatically displays the next data field in

 

sequence.

 

If the number of digits that you need to enter in a data field is less than the maximum digits available

 

(for example, the phone number fields *41, *42), enter the desired data, then press [] to end the

 

entry. The next data field number is displayed.

 

 

Review a Data Field

Press [#] + [Field Number].

 

Data will be displayed for that field number. No changes will be accepted in this mode.

Deleting an Entry

Press [] + [Field Number] + []. (Applies only to fields 40 thru *46, *94, and pager programming

 

fields)

INTERACTIVE MODE PROGRAMMING (56, 57, 58, 79, 80, 81, 82, 187)

Press [] + [Interactive Mode No.] (for example, 56). The alpha display keypad will display the first of a series of prompts requesting entries.

Interactive Mode

Used to Program

56 Zone Programming

Zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial numbers for 5800 RF

 

 

transmitters.

 

 

57 Function Key Programming

Unlabeled keypad keys (known as ABCD keys) for special functions

 

 

58 Zone Programming

Same options as *56 mode, but with fewer prompts. Intended for those familiar with

(Expert mode)

this type of programming, otherwise *56 mode is recommended.

 

 

 

79

Output Device Mapping

Assign module addresses and map individual relays/powerline carrier devices

 

 

 

80

Output Programming

4229 or 4204 Relay modules, Powerline Carrier devices, or on-board triggers

81

Zone List Programming

Zone Lists for relay/powerline carrier activation, chime zones, pager zones, etc.

82

Alpha Programming

Zone alpha descriptors

INITIALIZE DOWNLOAD and RESET DEFAULTS

96 Initializes download ID and subscriber account number. 97 Sets all data fields to original factory default values.

TO EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE:

98 Exits programming mode and prevents re-entry by: Installer Code + 8 + 0 + 0. If 98 is used to exit programming mode, system must be powered down, and method A above used to enter the programming mode.

See field *88 for other *98 Program mode lockout options.

99 Exits programming mode and allows re-entry by: Installer Code + 8 + 0 + 0 or method 1 above.

Special Messages

OC = OPEN CIRCUIT (no communication between Keypad and Control).

EEor ENTRY ERROR = ERROR (invalid field number entered; re-enter valid field number).

After powering up, AC, dI (disabled) or Busy Standby and NOT READY will be displayed after approximately 4 seconds. This will revert to a “Ready” message in approximately 1 minute, which allows PIRS, etc. to stabilize. You can bypass this delay by pressing [#] + [0].

If E4 or E8 appears, more zones than the expansion units can handle have been programmed. The display will clear after you correct the programming.
