– 3 –SYSTEM FEATURES & OPERATIONIntroductionThe 7720PLUS self-contained synthesized subscriber radio is the subscriber end of a Long RangeRadio alarm reporting system. As a communications link, by analogy to a telephone-based system,the 7720PLUS is comparable to a digital communicator connected by telephone line to a centralmonitoring station.Synthesized Frequency Selection The 7720PLUS can be programmed to operate on any authorized radio frequency. It is notnecessary to stock a separate radio for each frequency the installer supports. Wireless ReportingAll alarm and status messages are transmitted to the master station network via radio signals, whichmeans faster and more secure reporting.Integrated ElectronicsThe entire radio link equipment, except for the AC power supply unit, including interface,transmitter, battery and antenna, is housed in a single package, requiring only alarm inputs from acompatible alarm panel.Selection of Input InterfacesThe 7720PLUS can monitor alarm inputs from the Ademco ECP interface, discrete 4 zone contactclosures or their electrical equivalentNOTE: ECP features are compatible only with 685 software revision 4.7 and higher, and685-5 software revision 8.1 and higher.CompatibilityThe 7720PLUS is compatible with existing installations using ADEMCO equipment or other controlpanels. The 7720PLUS can be used in conjunction with digital communicators on the same system,both acting as backup to one another (use an ADEMCO 659-EN Line Monitor connected to a zoneinput to report a line cut to backup a digital dialer), while connecting the radio fault output to a zoneon the dialer.Built-in LED IndicatorsThree LEDs are used to indicate message transmissions, and radio faults. A blinking yellow LEDindicates normal operation. (See LED Table Page 4).Built-in Tamper ProtectionFor added protection, built-in cover tamper switches will trigger an alarm whenever the chassis coveris removed, thus protecting against unauthorized access to the 7720PLUS. The tamper zone numbermust be entered during programming to enable tamper reporting. A radio configured for ECP willautomatically report the tamper status to the control panel, as well as to the Central StationAntenna IncludedThe 7720PLUS can use either the supplied omni-directional wire antenna, or can use a 7825 outdoorantenna, 7625 omni-directional antenna, 7625-3DB antenna (if additional gain is required), a 7674, a7674-13 YAGI antenna (if a directional antenna is required), by using the optional 7720ANTconnector kit. For wall mounting, an optional 7825DP can be used. The supplied antenna mountsdirectly to the7720PLUS. The antennas (other than the wire and the dipole) can be mountedremotely, if desired, using the following pre-assembled coaxial cable, available from ADEMCO: 5ft
– 4 –coax (P/N 7626-5), 12ft coax (P/N 7626-12), 25ft coax (P/N 7626-25HC), and 50ft coax (P/N 7626-50HC).Programmable FeaturesThe 7720PLUS utilizes EEPROM (Electrically Erasable ROM) technology, which allows the7720PLUS to be programmed with a 7720P Programming Tool. The programming options includeradio frequency channel number (1 to 14), Telco channel assignments for fault input, inverted triggerinputs, delayed reporting channels (1-127 seconds delay, if selected), open/close/restore reportingchannels, etc.Self -Diagnosing TransmitterMalfunctions of the transmitter, including antenna fault, radio transmitter fault, loss of externalpower, and low internal DC voltage can be displayed on the 7720P programming tool or reported onthe ECP interface, as well as being transmitted to the master station, if the fault does not preventsuch transmission. Faults can also trigger contact closures on a Form “C” relay to indicate radiofaults.Power SupplyThe 7720PLUS is powered byan AC wall transformer, part number (TBD), whichprovides 12 volts ACto the radio on pins 1 and 2 of the terminal block. An internal rechargeable battery provides power tothe radio in the event of AC power outage. This battery is charged from the AC power supply duringnormal operation of the radio.Low Battery MonitoringThe 7720PLUS will notify the central station of a low battery condition whenever the battery voltagedrops below 9.93V (+/- 2%). Low battery restore messages are reported “” when the battery voltagereaches 10.03V (+/-2.5%). A radio configured for ECP will report the battery status to the controlpanel as well as to the central station.Low Battery ShutdownIn the absence of AC power, if battery voltage drops below 9.45 volts, the 7720PLUS willautomatically shutdown and ALL LEDs WILL BE OFF. However, so long as there is AC power, in thenormal range of 102 to 138 VAC at the wall outlet, the radio will operate properly, regardless of thecondition of the battery.General OperationThe 7720PLUS receives alarm and restore signals from the alarm control panel and converts thesesignals to radio messages which are transmitted to the master station network, which in turn relaysthe messages to the central station. The 7720PLUS can monitor 4 traditional zone inputs or an ECPsignal line from an appropriate control panel. The first two zones may be configured by the use of ajumper, to activate on either 0 volts or 4.5-14.2VDC; zones 3 and 4 are hard-wired to activate on 4.5-14.2VDC. Zones 1-4 can also be programmed to invert the sense of their input signals. (Zonesnormally are activated when the signal goes to a positive voltage. Inverting the zone trigger meansthat the zone will be activated when the signal goes to ground. The pull-up voltage for zones 1 and 2can be supplied by changing a jumper, if desired; pull-up voltage for any of the zones can be suppliedfrom the radio thru external resistors, or from an alarm panel.)Upon detecting an alarm or restoral, the 7720PLUS will transmit the messages to the master stationnetwork.The transmissions will repeat for approximately 6 minutes (total of 60 messages) to ensurethat the alarm or other report will be received by the central monitoring station.The 7720PLUS periodically transmits supervisory status messages to the AlarmNet network. Radiofaults that are indicated during transmissions may prevent communication; to prevent this, the faultoutput (available in zone mode only) can be programmed to also indicate radio faults (programming
– 5 –the fault output is explained later in this chapter). If no messages are received during the supervisorywindow, the network will generate a communication failure signal to the central station.Available in zone mode only is a contact closure used to locally indicate a radio fault. This can beeither normally open or normally closed. In addition it can be selected to be “fail-safe” byprogramming the fault output to be inverted (i.e. the relay is powered unless there is a fault). Thefault output is between TB1-11 and TB1-12, which float with reference to the rest of the circuit.Also available in zone mode only is the ability for the 7720PLUS to provide status information via itsserial port, thus allowing radio status to be displayed on command, using either a 7720PProgramming Tool or a computer terminal. Refer to the TESTING THE 7720PLUS section forinformation regarding the “S” command and status messages.LED IndicationsLED State MeaningGREEN Flash With YELLOW solid = Message transmissionYELLOW SolidRapid Flash(10 per second)Slow Flash(1/second)Slower Flash(1 per 3 seconds)Transmission cycle ONTest or FAST messageNormal operationNormal, but low battery condition detected.RED Solid Pattern Radio Fault detected.

If the radio finds that the battery is low, a lowbattery warning message will be transmitted. When the battery voltage restores, the radio willtransmit a battery restore message.Battery Charging Mode The battery is under continuous float charge whenever the AC power is connected and sufficient.
– 7 –SETTING THE JUMPER OPTIONS (Set Before Installing)Removing The CoverRemove the 7720PLUS’s cover by inserting a screwdriver into the 4 removal points at the bottom ofthe unit and gently releasing the locking tabs from the cover slots as shown..(J2) Zone Inputs Activate on High or LowIf using zone input connections, set the J2 jumper so that zone 1 & 2 inputs are activated either witha ground or with a positive voltage, whichever is required.If the trigger level is set for positive voltage, +4.5 to +14.2 volts must be applied to zones 1 & 2 totrigger an alarm. If the zone is connected to a normally high voltage trigger (i.e. goes low on alarm),invert this zone when programming (questions 13 and 14).If ground is selected, zones 1 & 2 are internally pulled up to 5 volts through a 10k ohm resistor. Thisvoltage should normally be pulled down (closed contact to ground) and released for alarm (opening thecontact). If a normally open contact is being used, invert this zone when programming (questions 13and 14).(J3) Fault Output SelectRefer to the diagram on the following page when setting jumpers.
– 8 –The radio fault output relay may be programmed for either FAIL-SAFE mode (relay alwaysenergized) or LOW CURRENT mode (relay normally de-energized) by selecting Yes or No toprogramming question 27: FLT REL ON (Y/N). In addition, the relay can be set for either N.O. or N.C.operation (in either fail-safe or low current modes) using the J1 jumper. When fail-safe mode isselected, the relay will change states (and trigger a dialer, if connected) in the event of power loss.Note that fail-safe mode increases the standby current by about 10mA, which results in lower batterybackup time (about 15%) in the event of power loss. Set the J1 jumper to position A or position B, asfollows:Prog. Ques. 26 J1 Jumper Setting (relay N.O. or N.C.)Fault Relay ON (energized) Pos. B Pos. ANO N.C. N.O.YES N.O. N.C.
– 9 –Trigger voltage outputs: A current-limited source of approximately 12 volts DC is available at pin 3of the terminal block, for external contacts, etc., that require a pullup voltage.NOTE: Use color-coded wires for the power connections; it is recommended that the positive connectionbe red and the negative connection be black.Wiring At The Control Panel’.Connect the negative wire to the system negative point, which is also the negative line from thebattery.Run the alarm wires to the transmitter location.Wiring For ECP Communication with a Control PanelOnly certain panels support ECP data communication at this time. Check the InstallationInstructions of your panel to see if Long Range Radio is supported.ECP data connections are the Data In and Data Out terminals that the keypads and other peripheraldevices (RF Receiver, VIP module, etc.) use for communication with the panel. To wire the radio forECP communication, do the following:Connect TB1-4 (Ground) of the 7720PLUS to the ground of the panel.Connect TB1-5 (ECP DATA IN) of the 7720PLUS to “data out to consoles” connection on the panel.Connect TB1-6 (ECP DATA OUT) of the 7720PLUS to “data in from consoles” connection on the panel.Note: add ground wire to drawing below. (See page 10a)

– 11 –Recommended Wiring At The 7720PLUSThe alarm and power wires can be brought into the transmitter through the base, or through thecover. If they are to be brought through the cover, cut out the optional wire entry port. Connect theAC power wires from the transformer to TB 1-1 and TB 1-2, respectively. Install the battery into thebattery holder, but do not plug in the battery cable yet.Maximum Wire Run LengthsGauge Distance18 300 feet20 200 feet22 125 feet—7720PLUS wiring connection TERMINALS—MountingDetermine the best antenna location for strong radio communication with the Master Station networkusing the 7715DFFAST Tool (see pages 21 - 23). Mount the 7720PLUS to a horizontal or verticalsurface, depending on the antenna used. Be sure to allow access to the programming port whenmounting. The 7720PLUS is intended to be mounted to a horizontal surface, preferably on a ceiling,or in an attic location on top of a joist when using the supplied wire antenna. If using the 7720ANTantenna kit, the 7720PLUS can be mounted to a vertical surface such as a wall or beam.Powering UpAfter all wiring is complete and the unit is mounted, plug the battery cable of the 7720PLUS intothe connector next to the terminal block, then apply power to theradio. The radio will rapidly flasheach LED consecutively for a total time of about 2.5 seconds. During this time, the user can configurethe radio to operate in zone mode (four zone inputs) or in ECP mode, where alarm input is receivedfrom the control panel via the ECP interface. See “Choosing Mode” in the Programming Section.
– 12 –PROGRAMMING THE 7720PLUSUsing A 7720P Programming ToolThe 7720P Programming Tool is powered by the 7720PLUS, and connects to the telephone connectoron the 7720PLUS PC Board. Please note the the 7720P is not functional when the radio is running inECP mode; it is functional only during power-up of an ECP radio.IMPORTANT NOTE: Some of the older 7720P tools (those shipped prior to mid-1998) willnot function if the line voltage is too low. These can be modified using instructionssupplied on request, or they may be returned to Ademco for factory modification. All 7720P tools currently shipping will work without difficulty.Each key of the 7720P has two possible functions, a normal function and a SHIFT function. Toperform a normal key function, simply press the desired key. To perform a SHIFT key function, pressSHIFT key, then press desired function key.7720P Normal & Shift Key (shift LED lit) Functions Key Normal Key Function SHIFT Key FunctionBS/ESC [BS]: Press to delete entry [ESC]: Press to quit program mode.Also, can reset EEPROM defaults*↓ / ↑ [↓]: Scroll down programming [↑]: Scroll up programmingN/Y [N]: Press for “NO” answer.

This will cause the radio to display the following prompton the 7720P display:ECP Radio[Y/N]
– 13 –The radio will wait 10 seconds for a response. If the radio receives no response or something otherthan a “Y” or an “N”, the radio will use the configuration stored in EEPROM. The defaultconfiguration is Zone mode. If the configuration has changed, the EEPROM MUST bereprogrammed.If the new configuration is ECP mode, and the panel used is not capable of programming the radio,the 7720P can be used during the power-up sequence (See ECP Mode Unique Programming section,page 18). If the new configuration is zone mode, the 7720PLUS signon will appear immediately andprogramming may begin. If the 7720PLUS has been programmed for the given configuration, theLEDs will flash according to their functions. If the 7720PLUS has not been programmed, regardlessof configuration, the LEDs will flash in unison indefinitely.Zone Mode Unique ProgrammingAfter connecting the 7720P cable, power up the 7720PLUS (plug in the battery connector and applypower to the control panel). The following will be displayed:ADEMCO 7720 4.xx© Pittway 19964.xx = current software revision levelProgramming is accomplished by answering displayed questions. Most questions require only a [Y]esor [N]o response, while others require a numerical response (ID numbers, etc.). Press ENTER toaccept each response and proceed to the next question. A “?” indicates an invalid entry. The currentvalue is displayed on the second line in parenthesis (). To accept the current entry, simply press theENTER key. Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the programming questions withoutchanging any values.Enter programming mode by pressing [ENTER] during the initial power up period (while LEDs areflashing consecutively).Pressing SHIFT-X will reset the 7720PLUS to its initial power up phase if it has already enteredprogram mode. The 7720PLUS reads its EEPROM to determine its pre-programmed parameters. ACRC of the EEPROM locations is also read. If the computed CRC does not match the one read fromEEPROM or if the programming parameters are invalid, the 7720P LCD displays “NO PROG”. Whilethe three LEDs flashes in unison, press ENTER to begin programming.“”“”“”“”“”Password ProtectionIf desired, the programming options can be passweord protected.NOTE: If using a terminal to program passwords, use only those characters available on the 7720P.This allows later access using a 7720P Programming Tool (A, B, C, D, E, F, S, T, X). Once a password is assigned, the following prompt appears upon entering programming mode:ENTER PASSWORD: See EXITING PROGRAM MODE paragraph later in this section for assigning and changingpasswords.

Notapplicable for AlarmNet users.Question 8 Channel# Enter the AlarmNet channel number, 1-14.PULSE/DELAY ZONE SELECTIONBy configuring a zone as a pulsed zone, it is possible to use the output of a panel bell/siren driver toactivate the radio directly when the signal from this driver is a pulsed output for fire and a continuousoutput for Burglary. To implement a Fire/Burg. detection at the radio, connect the driver output directlyto two zones on the 7720PLUS. Program the Fire zone as a pulsed zone and the Burglary Zone as adelayed Zone (this is to prevent this zone from reporting an alarm when the pulsed signals are detected).The number of pulses and the length of delay will be dependent on the particular panel or siren driverbeing used and is therefore a programmable feature.Note: Zones programmed for pulse cannot be designated as open/close or Telco zones; an invalid entrymessage will occur, since the pulse zone takes priority over open/close and Telco programmed zones.UL Note: The control unit total delay shall not exceed 14 seconds in UL Listed applications if “yes”; 0.30seconds if “no”.

Press N for normalinput signalRESTORAL REPORTING ZONE SELECTIONRestoral reporting can be enabled, disabled or delayed. The delay option delays Restoral reporting forabout 1.5 minutes after the actual restore condition, which helps ensure that alarm messages reach thecentral station before the restore message. Note that if restores are enabled for a delayed zone, therestore condition must exist for at least 2.5 seconds (this is intended to prevent swinger conditions). Ifany of the zones have been programmed for pulse operation, then, following the Restoral question, the7720P will display “REST ON CHG (Y/N)”. This feature is used for zones connected to the bell output of apanel, and when enabled (Y) will report the zone in restoral when the pulse train stops and a steady statelevel, either high or low, is left on the zone input or when the steady state level starts pulsing. If thisfeature is not enabled (N), the zone will only restore on a steady state low logic level.Question 18 Rest. Z1 (Y/N/D) Press Y to enable restoral reporting for zone 1.

– 25 –ANTENNA MOUNTINGSelecting A LocationIf Non UL installation, an antenna location which has reliable communications with at least onebase station with an uplink signal strength reading of “3” or greater may be used .NOTE: Place a check mark [✔✔] in the “Single Site Supervision” box on the SubscriberContract.For UL Grade “A” or Grade “B” installations, find an antenna location which has reliablecommunication to at least two AlarmNet Base Stations with a minimum uplink signal strengthreading of “3”.After determining the type of installation required (UL, Non UL) find an antenna locationwithin the premises. Locations can be found by utilizing the test mode of the 7720PLUS (seeTESTING THE 7720PLUS section), the 7715 FAST Tool or the 7920 series transceiver.Notes On AntennaMounting 1. Optimum RF performance can usually be found at the highestpoint within a building, with the fewest number of wallsbetween the radio and the outside of the premises.2. Avoid mounting the antenna near other electronic devices. The followingtable provides minimum distances. Highest RF energy is in the direct,horizontal line of the antenna. Therefore, vertical separation (movingelectronic devices either higher or lower on wall) provides a higher level ofisolation from the radio.Equipment DistanceShort range receiver 20 ft.PIR 10 ft.Control panel 25 ft.FM radio or TV ant. 25 ft.other devices 10 ft. minimumThe diagram below displays the 7720PLUS mounting options and theappropriate antenna hardware to be used in each of these situations.
– 26 –ANTENNA MOUNTING OPTIONSOutdoor Antenna MountingThe 7720PLUS must always be mounted indoors. If the only suitable antenna location found isoutside of the protected building, mount the 7720PLUS close to this location on the inside of thebuilding and connect an external (outdoor) antenna to the radio. Carefully follow all instructionsincluded in these optional parts to insure integrity of the weather-proof seals on all outsideconnections. The following antenna kits can be utilized for remote or outdoor mounting.Antenna Description Note7720 ANT Adapter for the Remote Antenna 7625-3dB 3dB Gain Antenna omnidirectional 7825 Outdoor Antenna with bracket omnidirectional7670F Remote Antenna bracket7674 6dB Gain Direct directionalIndoor Antenna MountingIf the location found allows indoor mounting of the antenna, then the antennaselected depends on the mounting surface of the 7720PLUS.

If the 7720PLUS has been programmed,the LEDs will begin to flash according to their functions. If the7720PLUS has not been programmed, the LEDs will flash inunison indefinitely.
– 28 –POST INSTALLATION CHECKLISTPost Installation Checklist is intended for installers who want to get the 7720PLUS up and runningquickly.To take full advantage of the many installation features of the 7720PLUS, we strongly suggest you take afew moments and read the programming section.Power-Up Always connect the battery first.Weather Proofing All outside antennas and cable connections must be weatherproofed.Antenna Positioning Make sure the 7625 antenna is vertically mounted. If installing the 7625or 7674 antenna outside, use the 7670 Antenna Bracket and follow theinstallation instructions enclosed.
– 29 –TESTING THE7720PLUSRadio Transmission TestThe 7720PLUS is capable of sending a test message, which can be received by the central station toconfirm the radio’s communication link to the central station.For AlarmNet users, the test message will cause the master station network to send a “FieldTriggered Diagnostic Message” to the Central Station. This message provides network information aswell as signal strength and frequency characteristics of the transmitted messages. Refer to theAlarmNet User’s Guide for detailed information concerning these messages. The test message can betransmitted in any of three ways. Please note that methods 2 and 3 are available in Zone modeONLY. Check control panel Installation Instructions if LRR Test Mode feature is supported.1) The TEST INPUT of the 7720PLUS can be triggeredby shorting the two pins of the test connectortogether using a screwdriver, dime, etc., This will initiate a 90 second cycle (total of 60 messages) oftest message transmissions. Note that once this cycle has been initiated by a voltage trigger, it can beturned off by using the T command described in (2). Otherwise, the messages will not stop until theend of the cycle.2) A 7720P Programming Tool can be used, if the radio is operating in zone mode. To begin the cycleof test message transmissions, press SHIFT-8 (T command). This is a toggle function. To end thetransmissions before the end of the cycle, simply enter the command again. See the NOTE on page25.3) A computer terminal can be used, if connected to the programming connector of the 7720PLUS. Tobegin a cycle of test message transmissions, press “T.” This is a toggle function. To end thetransmissions before the end of the cycle, simply enter the command again.System TestTrigger an alarm by any convenient means and observe the LED indicators on the radio. The yellowLED should light solidly, followed by the green LED flashing every 1-3 seconds at first, then slowingduring the 6 minute cycle. This indicates that an alarm message has been received at the radio(yellow), and the transmitter has been activated (green). The red LED should not light.If the radio is configured for zone mode and the zone is programmed for restore, restore the circuit.The yellow LED should light solidly, and the green LED should flash again, indicating transmission ofthe restore message. The central station receiver should display alarm/restore messages for eachtriggered alarm/restore performed.If at any time the red LED lights, a radio fault has been detected. This could be caused by a faultyantenna connection, or might be caused by low internal battery voltage, or a failure in the radio’spower circuits (see LED FLASH PATTERNS on page 4).If the radio is in Zone mode, the 7720PLUS can display diagnostic data (S command) related to thestatus of these conditions. See Status Command section.If the radio is in ECP mode, the status is displayed on the control panel’s remote keypad in the lowerright-hand corner. This display is in the form of a four-digit numeric output (usually preceded by“Long Rnge Fail”). Please see description of codes in ECP Status Codes section.Replace the cover (if it was removed) and perform a control panel system test.
– 30 –Status Display Interpretation for “S” Command.(Available in Zone mode ONLY)The status of the7720PLUS can be viewed on either a 7720P Programming Tool or an appropriate terminal wheneither device is connected to the serial port of the 7720PLUS. The status display includes zone inputstatus, test terminal status, tamper status, battery condition, charging voltage status and radio faultstatus, The 2-line display takes the following form:1234 TeTmBaAcFlt5555 5 5 + + 01234 The numbers 1-4 represent the four zone inputs, and followAdemco High Speed Format codes:1 New Event2 New Opening3Restore4 New Closing5 Normal6 Previously Reported Event@ Telco New EventP Telco Previously Reportedp Telco RestoreTe Test terminal input codes:1 Test message transmission in progress, triggeredby either physical test point or “T” command.5 Normal (no test message in progress).6 Transmission of test message completed, but physical test point still triggered.P Transmission of test message pending completionof higher priority message transmission .Tm Tamper status follows High Speed Format codes above.Ba Represents battery condition:+ Battery voltage acceptable- Battery voltage below 10.03V ±2%V Battery voltage going low has not yet been detected lowfor four consecutive transmissions^Battery restoring, but not yet reported as restoredAc Represents charging voltage:+ AC voltage OK- AC voltage bad & reportedV AC voltage bad, not reported (reporting window not expired)^AC voltage restored, not reported as restoredFlt Represents Radio Faults.0Normal1 Internal radio fault*5 Radio Fault (Bad VSWRor low RF output (checkantenna, connections and cable) CRCRam/EEPROM corruption. Reset the radio and ifnecessary reprogram. If this fault recurs, return radio forservice.Code 1 requires factory service Code 5 may require factory service if troubleshooting of power supply and antenna connectionsdoes not correct problem.
– 31 –ECP Status CodesWhen the 7720PLUS radio is set up in ECP mode, it sends to the control panel the status of itsbattery, the incoming AC voltage, the tamper and any RF failures. The status is displayed on thecontrol panel’s remote keypad in the form of a four-digit numeric usually preceded by the label “LongRnge Fail”. These codes will not clear from the remote keypad until a code-off sequence is enteredand the fault condition has cleared. The status codes are broken out as follows:Status CodeExplanation0000 Panel lost communication with the 7720PLUS radio0400 7720PLUS Power On/Reset3000 7720PLUS lost AC power input0880 7720PLUS tamper detected (cover removed from radio)0060 7720PLUS Battery is Low(The following codes will never be combined; each is mutually exclusive)0001 7720PLUS has internal radio fault and cannot transmit*0005 7720PLUS Radio Fault (BadVSWR or low RF output.Checkantenna, connections and cable)0006 7720PLUS EEPROM and/or RAM is corrupt (internal CRC is bad)*0007 7720PLUS had not been programmedCodes 1& 6 require factory service.
– 32 –Last Detected Fault “E” Command(Available in Zone mode ONLY)The last detected radio fault and the last reported radio fault can be viewed by pressing “E” on a7720P Programming Tool or an appropriate terminal when either device is connected to the serialport of the 7720PLUS.The message is a 2-line display where the top line identifies the last fault that the 7720PLUS detectedand the second line identifies the last fault that the 7720PLUS actually reported to the monitoringnetwork. The last detected fault represents a fault that occurred on at least one transmission, butdid not necessarily trip the fault relay. The last reported fault is a fault that was present for anumber of transmissions (typically at least 4 consecutive transmissions) and which tripped the faultrelay. The possible fault numbers are described in the “S” command paragraph above. If the detectedfault does not match the reported fault value, and the transmission cycle has finished, it indicatesthat the fault was not present long enough for the radio to report the condition.These values are stored in EEPROM and will be retained even when the 7720PLUS is powered down.To erase the numbers from memory, press ESC (shift BS) as the next keystroke after pressing “E”.The fault value is also erased automatically upon exiting program mode.NOTE: Since the execution of this command requires access to the RJ11 connector, the antenna andcover must be removed. By doing so, the radio will detect an RF fault as well as a tamper. To preventthis fault from overwriting a previous fault, the radio does not write the last reported fault toEEPROM if a tamper is detected.Unique Contact ID Messages Generated in ECP ModeThe following is a list of messages generated by the 7720PLUS when it is in ECP mode. Thesemessages are in Contact ID format.MessageTramsmitted by7720PLUSMessageDisplayed on 685 Description of Alarm333008xx* R330 C8xx* Restore of any RF faults reportedto the panel.(Restore of System PeripheralTrouble).134208xx*334208xx* E342 C8xx*R342 C8xx* ECP AC LossECP AC Restore133808xx*333808xx* E338 C8xx*R338 C8xx* ECP Low BatteryECP Low Battery Restore133908xx* E339 C8xx* ECP Power On/Reset134108xx*334108xx* E341 C8xx*R341 C8xx* ECP TamperECP Tamper Restore1355000033550000E355 C000R355 C000Radio Lost Communication withthe Control PanelRadio Re-establishedcommunication with the ControlPanelNote: “xx” is the Device Address programmed in the 7720PLUS radio.

– 37 –“FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION(FCC) STATEMENT”This equipment has been tested to FCC requirements and has been found acceptable for use. The FCCrequires the following statement for your information:This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, instrict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and televisionreception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device inaccordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonableprotection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee thatinterference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio ortelevision reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged totry to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:• If using an indoor antenna, have a quality outdoor antenna installed.• Reorient the receiving antenna until interference is reduced or eliminated.• Move the receiver away from the transmitter.• Move the antenna leads away from any wire runs to the transmitter.• Plug the transmitter into a different outlet so that it and the receiver are on different branch circuits.If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additionalsuggestions.The user or installer may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commissionhelpful:“Interference Handbook”This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Stock No.The user shall not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless authorized by the InstallationInstructions or User’s Manual. Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user’s authority tooperate the equipment.TO THE INSTALLERRegular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer and frequent testing by the user arevital to continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm system.The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and offering a regular maintenance program tothe user as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm system andits component parts. Recommendations must be included for a specific program of frequent testing (at leastweekly) to insure the system’s proper operation at all times.THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS RADIO COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMWhile this 900 MHz Long Range Radio communications system is part of an advanced and sophisticatedsecurity system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or fire, nor does it guaranteecommunication of burglary or fire warning signals to a central station. Any alarm system, or anycommunications system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise, or failure to warn, fora variety of reasons. Examples of some of these reasons are:• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have technical sophistication to bypass analarm sensor, and then disconnect an alarm communicating radio transmitter.• Signals sent by 900 MHz radio transmitters may be blocked by metal, mountains, hills, foliage and othernatural and man made obstructions before they are received by a master receiving station or sent to acentral station. Even a path previously verified as acceptable may periodically change its characteristics.• Long-range radio communication transmitters will not work without power. Radio transmitters require abattery to work properly in the absence of A.C. power. A weak or dead battery, or improperly installedbatteries may prevent these devices from functioning properly if A.C. power is disrupted for any reason.
– 38 –• Radio communication systems are subject to external interference, natural or man-made, intentional orcoincidental, that may keep a signal or group of signals from being successfully received by a masterreceiving station or a central station. In addition, one-way radio communication devices receive noacknowledgment from a master receiving station that their signals are being successfully received.Signals transmitted may clash with those transmitted from other systems. While statistical estimatespredict successful operation, if the guidelines in the system manuals are followed, the operation of thissystem is still probabilistic in nature and may be subject to random signal failures.• Radio communication devices may change their characteristics over time. Such parameters as frequency,modulation and power should be properly monitored periodically, with required adjustments made byqualified personnel.• Radio communication devices must be installed by qualified personnel. Improper installation or selectionof a transmitter’s location may cause intermittent or unreliable performance.Any electronic or mechanical device can fail. The most common cause of an alarm system or a radiocommunications system not functioning properly when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequatemaintenance, maintenance that is intended to find such failures as soon as possible. This alarm andcommunication system should be tested weekly to be sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not asubstitute for adequate insurance. Homeowners, property owners, business owners and renters shouldcontinue to insure their property and lives.
