RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION
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 detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment 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,
including basements. The installation of smoke detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in
garages is not normally recommended.
For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors 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.

GARAGE

• Install a smoke detector at both 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 OF 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 that radio backup be used in a security system so that alarm signals can
still be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm
signals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

Maximum wire lengths for any device that is homerun to the control can also be determined from the Wiring Run Chart,
based on the current draw of that device alone.
The length of all wire runs for both partitions combined must not exceed 1500 feet (457m) when unshielded quad
conductor cable is used (750 feet if shielded cable is used). This restriction is due to the capacitive effect on the data lines
when quad cable is used.

Sounder (Bell) Connections

This control complies with NFPA requirements for
temporal pulse sounding of fire notification appliances.
Temporal pulse sounding for a fire alarm consists of:
3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses–etc..

1. Make sounder connections to alarm output terminals
3 (+) and 4 (–).
For supervised output, continue with steps 2 and 3.
2. Cut the red Bell Supervision Jumper located above
terminals 2 and 3 on the control board.
3. Connect a 2k ohm resistor across the terminals of the
last sounder.

UL
• Use only UL Listed sounding devices for UL
installations.
• Bell supervision is required for fire alarm installations.
• The total current drawn from the alarm output and the
auxiliary power output, combined, cannot exceed 600
mA. In addition, the sounding device must be a UL
Listed audible signal appliance rated to operate in a
10.2-13.8 VDC voltage range, and must be mounted
indoors.

TERMINALS ON
CONTROL BOARD

• The 12VDC sounder output activates when an
alarm occurs.
• Total current drawn from this output cannot
exceed 2 amps (going beyond 2 amps will
overload the power supply, or may cause the
electronic circuit protecting the sounder output
to trip).
• You must install a battery, since the battery
supplies this current.

the control board. See Wire Run Chart at right for wire
size to use. (Use 1321CN in Canada)

• Use caution when wiring the transformer to the
control to guard against blowing the transformer
fuse (the fuse is non-replaceable).
• Wiring to the AC transformer must not exceed
250 feet using 16 gauge wire. The voltage
reading between terminals 1 and 2 of the
control must not fall below 16.5VAC or an “AC
LOSS” message will be displayed.

1361X10 Transformer
(required if using Powerline Carrier devices)
1. Splice one end of a 3-conductor cable to the wire ends
of the SA4120XM-1 Cable.
2. Connect the SA4120XM-1 cable plug to the 8-pin
connector on the control (see the Summary of
Connections diagram for location of the 8-pin
connector).
3. Connect the other end of the 3-conductor cable to the
1361X10 Transformer, as shown.

• Do not plug the transformer into the AC outlet
while making any wiring connections to the
control. As a safety precaution, always power
down the control when making such connections.

Backup Battery

Notes

1. Place the 12-volt backup battery in the cabinet.
2. After all connections to the control are completed and
AC power has been applied, connect the red and black
flying leads on the control board to the battery. Do not
attach these leads to the battery terminals until all
connections are completed.
Battery Saver Feature: The battery will disconnect
from the system after its voltage decreases below 9VDC.
This assists the control panel in recharging the battery
when AC is restored.

IMPORTANT: The panel will not power up
initially on battery power only. You must plug the
transformer in first, and then connect the battery.

UL For UL installations and Residential fire
installations, refer to the chart below for the
correct battery size required to meet the
mandatory standby time.

CALIFORNIA STATE FIRE MARSHALL (CSFM) AND UL RESIDENTIAL FIRE
24-HOUR BATTERY BACKUP REQUIREMENTS
The California State Fire Marshal and UL have regulations which require that all residential fire alarm control
panels must be provided with a backup battery which has sufficient capacity to operate the panel and its attached
peripheral devices for 24 hours in the intended standby condition, followed by at least 4 minutes in the intended
fire alarm signaling condition. This control panel can meet these requirements without using a supplementary
power supply, provided that the panel’s auxiliary power and bell output currents are limited as indicated below.

Earth Ground

Notes

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.

• This product has been designed and laboratorytested to ensure its resistance to damage from
generally expected levels of lightning and
electrical discharge, and does not normally
require an earth ground.
• If an earth ground is desired for additional
protection in areas of severe electrical activity,
terminal 25 on the control board, or the cabinet,
may be used as the ground connection point. The
examples of good earth grounds listed at the left
are available at most installations.

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

Hardwire Zones

Notes

Normally Open Zones/ Normally Open EOLR Zones
1. Connect open circuit devices in parallel across the
loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR across the
loop wires at the last device.
2. Enable normally open/EOLR zones using Zone
Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt.

• EOLR: If the EOLR is not at the end of the loop,
the zone is not properly supervised and the
system may not respond to an “open” on the zone.
• Zone 1 is intended for EOLR only.

Normally Closed Zones/Normally Closed EOLR Zones
1. Connect closed circuit devices in series in the high (+)
side of the loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR in
series following the last device.
2. Enable normally closed/EOLR zones using Zone
Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt.
Double-Balanced (FA168CPS only): Connect as shown
below (resistor provided for one device).
IMPORTANT: Double-balanced zones provide zone tamper
protection, and should be used as burglary zones only. Do not
use double-balanced zones as fire zones.

Smoke Detectors

Notes

2-Wire Smoke Detectors
1. Connect up to sixteen (10, if “clean me” option used)
2-wire smoke detectors across zone 1 terminals 8 (+)
and 9 (-) as shown in the Summary of Connections
diagram at the back this manual. Observe proper
polarity when connecting the detectors.
2. Connect an EOL resistor across the loop wires at the
last detector.

• Fire Verification (zone type 16): The control
panel will “verify” a fire alarm by resetting the
smoke detectors after the first alarm trigger, and
then waiting 90 seconds for a second alarm
trigger. If the smoke detector or thermostat does
not trigger again, the control will disregard the
first trigger, and no alarm signal will occur. This
feature eliminates false alarms due to electrical
or physical transients.
SIA Installations: If using fire verification on
zones other than zone 1, UL Fire Alarm Listed
relay accessories must be used to reset power as
described in step 3.
• The zone 1 alarm current supports only one
smoke detector in the alarmed state.
• Clean Me Option: If enabled (field *174 = 1;
*56 zone programming, response time prompt =
3), certain ESL smoke detectors† send “clean me”
reports as appropriate. If used, the maximum
number of detectors is reduced to 10 (not
standard 16).
† Refer to the ESL documentation included with
the smoke detector for information regarding
compatibility with the clean-me option.

Smoke Detectors (continued)

Notes

4-Wire Smoke Detectors
3. Connect 4-wire smoke detectors (up to 16, depending
on detector current draw) to any zone from 2-8 as
shown below. This control does not automatically
reset power to 4-wire smoke detector zones, so you
must use a relay (e.g., 4204, 4229), or on-board trigger
to reset power (also required for fire verification). Do
this by programming the designated relay/trigger as
zone type 54 (fire zone reset); see On-Board Trigger
section for other information.

• Do not use 4-wire smoke detectors on zone 1.

NOTE: Maximum current on trigger 17 is 100mA.

Installing the RF Receiver

Notes

Use any ADEMCO 5800 Series Wireless Receivers, such
as:
RF Receiver
No. of Zones
5881L/5882L
up to 8
5881M/5882M up to 16
5881H/5882H, FA168CPS = up to 40 plus 16 buttons
5883, FA260RF FA148CP = up to 26 plus 8 buttons

• The receiver is supervised and a trouble report is
sent (“CHECK 100” displayed) if communication
between the panel and receiver is interrupted, or
if no valid RF signals from at least one supervised
transmitter are received within 12 hours.
If the receiver is mounted remotely:
• Place the RF receiver in a high, centrally located
area for best reception.
• Do not locate the receiver or transmitters on or
near metal objects. This will decrease range
and/or block transmissions.
• Do not locate the RF receiver in an area of high
RF interference (indicated by frequent or
prolonged lighting of the LED in the receiver;
random flicker is OK).
• Do not locate RF receiver closer than 10 feet
from any keypads to avoid interference from the
microprocessors in those units.

1. Set Device Address to “00” as described in its
instructions (set all switches to the right, “off”
position).
2. Mount the receiver, noting that the RF receiver can
detect signals from transmitters within a nominal
range of 200 feet.
3. Connect the receiver's wire harness to the control's
keypad terminals. Plug the connector at the other
end of the harness into the receiver. Refer to the
installation instructions provided with the receiver
for further installation procedures regarding antenna
mounting, etc.

Installing a 5800TM Module

Notes

1. Mount the 5800TM next to the RF receiver (between
one and two feet from the receiver’s antennas) using
its accompanying mounting bracket. Do not install
within the control cabinet.
2. Connect the 5800TM to the control panel’s keypad
connection terminals as shown on the Summary of
Connections diagram and set to address 28.

• Use this module only if you are using one or
more wireless bi-directional keypads or keyfobs
with a wireless Receiver; 5800TM is not
necessary if using a Transceiver (e.g., 5883).
• The 5800TM must be set to address 28 (cut redW1 jumper).
• The 5800TM can be used in partition 1 only.
• For additional information regarding the
5800TM, refer to the 5800TM’s instructions.

Installing the Transmitters

Notes

1. To be sure reception of the transmitter's signal at the
proposed mounting location is adequate, perform a
Go/No Go Test, described in the Testing the System
section.
2. Install transmitters in accordance with the
instructions provided with each.
3. Set 5827, 5827BD, 5804BD wireless keypads to the
programmed House ID (field *24), using its DIP
switches (5827) or follow the instructions provided
with the device.

• Refer to the table of compatible devices at the
back of this manual.
• Supervised transmitters† send check-in signals to
the receiver at 70-90 minute intervals. If at least
one check-in message is not received from each
transmitter within a 12-hour period, the “missing”
transmitter number(s) and “CHECK” is displayed.
† Hand-held transmitters (e.g., 5802, 5802CP, 5804,

ULC NOTE: In accordance with ULC standards, the
RF supervision period for the FA168CPS-CN and
FA148CP-CN is three hours for Fire zones (Zone Type 9
and 16) and 12 hours for all other zone types.

2-8

5804BD, 5827, 5827BD) do not send check-in signals.

The following transmitters are not intended for use
in UL installations: 5802MN, 5802MN2, 5804, 5804BD,
5814, 5816TEMP, 5819, 5819WHS & BRS, and 5850.
The 5827BD and 5800TM can be used in UL Listed
Residential Burglar installations.

Mounting and Wiring the Control
Transmitter Battery Life
• See Wireless Transmitter paragraph in the Limitations of This Alarm System statement located at the end
of this manual for information on transmitter battery life.
• Some transmitters (e.g., 5802 and 5802CP) contain long-life but non-replaceable batteries, and no battery
installation 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, and 5802CP) should be periodically tested for battery life.
• The 5802MN and 5804 Button Transmitters have replaceable batteries.
Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until you are ready to enroll during system programming.
After enrolling, batteries need not be removed.

Installing a Keyswitch

Notes

1. Connect the 4146 keyswitch's normally open
momentary switch to a zone’s (2-8) terminals.
Remove the 2000 ohm EOL resistor if connected
across the selected zone.
2. Using a standard keypad cable as shown:
Connect the yellow and white keyswitch wires to
trigger connector pin 3 (+12V).
Connect the Red and Green LED wires to the
appropriate output 17/output 18 trigger connector
pins.
3. Connect a 2000 ohm EOL resistor across the
momentary switch.
4. You can wire an optional closed-circuit tamper switch
(model 112) in series with the zone. If the switchplate
is then removed from the wall, the tamper will open,
disabling keyswitch operation until the system is
next disarmed from the keypad.
If the tamper is opened when the system is armed, an
alarm will occur.

• Use 4146 keyswitch or any N.O. keyswitch.
• Use only one keyswitch per partition.
• When using a keyswitch, the zone it is connected
to is no longer available for use as a protective
zone.
• Use *56 Menu mode to program the keyswitch
zone and assign it zone type 77.
• Use *80 Menu mode to program the LED
functions: program outputs 17 and 18 for system
operation zone type 78 (red LED) and 79 (green
LED) as appropriate (see Output Device
Programming section).

On-Board Triggers
Connect field wiring to the desired trigger pin on the
8-pin trigger connector centrally located above the
terminal strip.
• If using 1361X10 transformer and powerline
carrier devices, use the SA4120XM-1 cable. See
Wiring the AC Transformer section for transformer
connections.
• If only using the on-board triggers, you can use a
4-wire cable (N4632-4, supplied with the control)
cable as shown below.

If on-board triggers are used, the wiring between the
control unit and the UL Listed device must be run in
conduit, be no more than 3 feet apart and have no
intervening barriers or walls.

• Trigger outputs are normally high, and go low
upon programmed condition.
• The outputs can be programmed for inverted
operation (normally low, go high) using *79
Menu mode.
• Program these triggers using *80/*81 Menu
modes as you would for any other relay output.
• When using these outputs, note:
pin 1 = output number 17 (trigger 1):
15 ohms to ground when closed (output
low), open when off (output high, normal
default); can be used to reset smoke
detector power (must set “output normal
low = yes” in *79 Menu mode, and set for
zone type 54, fire zone reset, in *80 Menu
mode); or can support 12V relay module†
that draws less than 100mA
pin 5 = output number 18 (trigger 2):
100 ohms to ground when closed (output
low); open when off (output high, normal
default); or can support 12V relay module
that draws less than 20mA

Installation Instructions

Phone Line/Phone Module Connections

Notes

1. Connect incoming phone line and handset wiring to
the main terminal block (via an RJ31X jack) as
shown in the Summary of Connections diagram at
the back of this manual. Wire colors represent the
colors of the cable to the RJ31X jack.
If using a phone module, continue with the following steps.
2. Make 12V (+) and (–) and data in and data out
connections from the phone module to the control,
using the connector cable supplied with the phone
module, then insert the keyed connector at the other
end of the connector cable into the header on the
phone module.
3. Connect Phone Module terminals as shown below.
Use an RJ31X jack with a direct-connect cord and
make all connections exactly as shown.
4. Caller ID Units: If a Caller ID unit is being used,
connect the unit directly to the “Handset” terminals
(21 & 22) on the control, as shown.

• Use FA4285 or FA4286 Phone Modules.
Compatibility: FA4286 Phone Modules must have
software version WA4286-15.1 or higher (refer to
the label on the square FA4286 microprocessor
chip).
• Only one phone module can be used and it can
only be connected to partition 1.
• The phone lines must be in service for the phone
module to function, even when accessing the
system from an on-premises phone.
• If you are also using an Audio Alarm Verification
(AAV) unit, refer to Audio Alarm Verification
(AAV) section for special wiring connections.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No.
26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord for
phone line connections.

The FA4285 and FA4286 modules are UL
Listed only for use on residential fire and UL
residential burglar alarm installations.

Phone Module Problems
If no touch tones are produced following access to the security system from on-premises (this problem may
arise in rare cases), it may be necessary to reverse the wires connected to terminals 3 and 4 on the phone
module and the wires connected to terminals (21) & (22) on the control. The wiring diagram shows the wiring
connections that will provide proper operation in most cases.
Connection to the incoming telco line via a RJ31X jack and direct-connect cord, as shown, is essential, even if
the system is not connected to a central station. The FA4285 or FA4286 will not function if this is not done and
an error signal (fast busy signal) will occur when trying to access the system via the phone.
The house phone lines (gray and brown wires) must be wired to the phone module terminals; not to the control
terminals. Otherwise, an error signal (fast busy signal) will occur when trying to access the system from an onpremises phone.

About Programming
You can program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual
installation. Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer’s office/home, using an
IBM personal computer, a modem, and Compass downloading software.
The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system:
Programming Mode…
Data Field Programming

Used to …
Program basic data fields used for setting the various system options.
Most of the data fields in this system have been programmed for specific
default values. However, some fields must be programmed for each
particular installation to establish its specific alarm and reporting features.

∗56 Zone Programming

Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial
numbers for 5800 RF transmitters.

∗57 Function Key Programming

Program each of the four alphabet function keys to perform one of several
system operations.

∗58 Zone Programming
(Expert Mode)

Assign zone attributes similar to ∗56 mode, but provides a faster
programming procedure and is intended for those more experienced in
programming controls of this type.

∗79 Output Device Mapping

Assign device addresses used by 4229 or 4204 Relay modules and map
specific relays and device outputs, and assign unit codes for Powerline
Carrier devices

∗80 Output Definitions

Define up to 48 output definitions which can control the output relays
mapped using *79 Output Device Mapping mode.

∗81 Zone List Programming

Create Zone Lists for relay/powerline carrier zones, chime, night-stay, cross
zones, and pager zones.

∗82 Alpha Programming
Scheduling Mode (code + [#] +64)

Create alpha descriptors for easy zone identification.
Create schedules to automate various system functions.

Zones and Partitions
Each protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming
mode or *58 Expert Programming mode. Refer to those sections for detailed procedures.
The FA168CPS system can control two independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use
by independent users, if desired, by simply assigning zones to one or the other partition during zone
programming. The FA168CPS, by default, automatically distributes users between the two
partitions. The master user can change the user number distributions.
Zones can also be assigned to a common partition, which is an area shared by users of both partitions
(such as a lobby in a building). This allows either partition to arm, while leaving the common
partition disarmed for access into the other partition. The following describes the functioning of the
FA168CPS common partition:
• The common zone sounds and reports alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only one
partition is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone.
• Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other
partition will not be able to arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected.
• Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone keypads, and will also appear on
another partition’s keypad when that partition is armed.
• Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.

3-1

Installation Instructions

Keypads
Keypads are identified by predefined addresses (starting at address 16) as follows:
Address

Keypad

Program Field

keypad 1

• always enabled for partition 1, all sounds enabled.

keypad 2

• data field *190

keypad 3

• data field *191

keypad 4

• data field *192

keypad 5

• data field *193

keypad 6

• data field *194

keypad 7

• data field *195

keypad 8

• data field *196

NOTE: First keypad is address 16.

To enable keypads:
1. Set desired address at keypad (refer to keypad’s instructions for setting the address).
2. Use data field program mode to enable keypad addresses, assign a partition, enable sound options
in fields *190-*196 as shown in the table above.
3. If desired, use data field *198 to turn on the display of the partition number.
4. Set the following keypad-related data fields as required by the installation:
*21 Quick Arm Enable; *23 Forced Bypass, *84 Auto STAY Arm
5. If using AUI, enable each unit in field *189 and set AUI 1 to address 1, AUI 2 to address 2.

Wireless Receiver, Transmitters, and Wireless Keys (keyfobs)
Receiver: Set the receiver’s address to “00” using its DIP switches, then set the following options:
*22 RF Jam Option†
*24 RF House ID Code (if using wireless keypads) for each partition
*67 Transmitter Low Battery Report Code†
† These fields must be enabled for Residential
Fire, UL Residential Burglar Alarm, and UL
*75 Transmitter Low battery restore report code†
Commercial Burglar Alarm installations.

Transmitters: Use *56 or *58 Zone Programming Menu modes to program zone information and
enroll transmitters (FA168CPS: zones 9-48, buttons 49-64; FA148CP: zones 9-34, buttons 49-56).
Wireless Keys: Use Wireless Key Programming Templates section of the *58 Zone Programming
Menu mode to program zone information and enroll each button of the wireless keys used. Once a
wireless key is enrolled, it must be assigned to a user before it becomes active. See Adding/Deleting
Security Codes section for procedure.

Pager Programming
The system can send various reports to several pagers (FA168CPS = up to 4; FA148CP = up to 2).
1. Enter the appropriate information in the following data fields:
*160, *163, *166, *169 Pager Phone Numbers (for pagers 1-4† respectively)
*161, *164, *167, *170 Pager Prefix Characters (for pagers 1-4† respectively)
*162, *165, *168, *171 Pager Reporting Options by Partition† (for pagers 1-4 respectively)
2. Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *172 (delays alarm reporting for ALL pagers).
3. Make sure appropriate user open/close pager reports are enabled (see Security Codes, Assigning
attributes in Section 12. System Operation). Users that perform actions in partition 1 will, if
enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for open/close reporting in partition 1. Users that
perform actions in partition 2 will, if enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for
open/close reporting in partition 2.
4. If using latchkey pager report, define the latchkey report schedule using Scheduling mode (master
code + [#] [6] [4] select event type “03”). System must be armed for the Latchkey report to be sent.
5. If using a function key to manually send a message to a pager, see Function Keys on the next page.
6. If reporting zone alarms and troubles to a pager, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones
associated with each pager (zone lists 9-12†).
† FA168CPS supports four pagers and partitioning; FA148CP supports two pagers and zone lists 9
and 10 only.
3-2

Function Keys
To assign functions to the function keys, use *57 Function Key menu mode.
To assign emergency key functions (function key option “00”), first program the respective emergency
zone number (95 for “A” key, 96 for “C” key, 99 for “B” key) with the desired zone type using *56 Zone
Programming mode, then use *57 Function Key menu mode to assign the desired key.
If using a function key to activate a relay action (*57 Menu mode key function 07), use *79 Menu
mode to map the output, and use *80 Menu mode to define the output’s action; select system
operation type “66.”
If using a function key for a user macro, use *57 menu mode to activate the desired key, then define
the actual macro functions using the user code + [#] + [6] [6] command.

Output Devices
To program a device for manual activation (user code + [#] [7] / [#] [8] + 2-digit device number) or for
scheduled automatic activation, simply map the device using *79 Menu mode.
To program a device to automatically activate upon a system event (or function key), use *79 Menu
mode to map the device, then use *80 Menu mode to define the automated device action.
If the device action is based on more than one zone, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones.

Zone Type Definitions
You must assign a zone type to each zone, which defines the way in which the system responds to
faults in that zone. Zone types are defined below.
Zone Type
Type 00
Zone Not Used
Type 01
Entry/Exit Burglary #1

Type 02
Entry/Exit Burglary #2

Type 03
Perimeter Burglary
Type 04
Interior Follower

Type 05
Trouble by Day/
Alarm by Night

Description
Program a zone with this zone type if the zone is not used.
• Assign to zones that are used for primary entry and exit.
• Provides entry delay when zone is faulted if control is armed in the Away, Stay,
or Night-Stay modes.
• No entry delay provided when the panel is armed in the Instant/Maximum mode.
• Entry delay #1 is programmable (field *35) for each partition.
• Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the arming mode
selected, and is programmable (field *34).
• Assign to zones that are used for entry and exit and require more time than the
primary entry/exit point.
• Provides a secondary entry delay, in same manner as entry delay #1.
• Entry delay #2 is programmable (field *36) for each partition.
• Exit delay is same as described for Type 01.
• Assign to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows.
• Provides an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is armed in the
Away, Stay, Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.
• Assign to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway through
which one must pass upon entry (to and from the keypad).
• Provides a delayed alarm (using the programmed entry 1 time) if the entry/exit
zone is faulted first. Otherwise this zone type gives an instant alarm.
• Active when the panel is armed in the Away mode.
• Bypassed automatically when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes;
if armed in Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list)
are not bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.
• Assign to a zone that contains a foil-protected door or window (such as in a store),
or to a zone covering a sensitive area such as a stock room, drug supply room, etc.
• Can also be used on a sensor or contact in an area where immediate notification
of an entry is desired.
• Provides an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away, Stay, Night-Stay,
Instant or Maximum (night) modes.
• During the disarmed state (day), the system will provide a latched trouble
sounding from the keypad (and a central station report, if desired).

3-3

Installation Instructions

Type 06
24-hour Silent Alarm

• Usually assigned to a zone containing an emergency button.
• Sends a report to the central station but provides no keypad display or sounding.

Type 07
24-hour Audible Alarm

• Assign to a zone that has an emergency button.
• Sends a report to the central station, and provides an alarm sound at the keypad,
and an audible external alarm.
• Assign to a zone containing an emergency button, or to a zone containing
monitoring devices such as water or temperature sensors.
• Sends a report to the central station and provides an alarm sound at the keypad.
(No bell output is provided.)
• Provides a fire alarm on short circuit and a trouble condition on open circuit. A
fire alarm produces a pulsing bell output.
• This zone type is always active and cannot be bypassed.

Type 08
24-hour
Auxiliary Alarm
Type 09
Supervised Fire

Type 22
Disarm (BR only)

• Provides entry delay (using the programmed entry time), if tripped when the
panel is armed in the Away mode.
• Entry Delay 1 begins whenever sensors in this zone are violated, regardless of
whether or not an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.
• Bypassed when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes; if armed in
Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list) are not
bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.
• Works as a dynamic monitor of a zone fault/trouble (not alarm). In the case of a
short/open, the message, "*ALARM*-24 Hr. Non-Burg. -#XXX " (where XXX is
the zone number) will be sent to the Central Station. The system keypad will
display a “check” message indicating the appropriate zone (but keypad beeping
does not occur). Upon restoral of the zone, the message, "*RESTORE*-24 Hr.
Non-Burg. -#XXX " will be sent to the Central Station.
• The “check” message will automatically disappear from the keypad dynamically,
when the zone restores; a user code + off sequence is not needed to reset the zone.
• Faults of this zone type are independent of the system, and can exist at the time
of arming without interference.
• Since this is a “trouble” zone type, do not use this zone type with relays set to
activate upon “alarm.”
• Assigned to any zone with a carbon monoxide detector.
• The bell output will pulse when this zone type is alarmed.
• Always active and cannot be bypassed.
• Provides a fire alarm when zone is shorted, but only after alarm verified.
• System verifies alarm by resetting zones for 12 seconds after short is detected. A
subsequent short circuit within 90 seconds triggers fire alarm.
• Provides a trouble response when zone is open.
• Arms the system in Stay mode when the zone is activated.
• Pushbutton units send the user number to the central station when arming or
disarming.
• User number for button must be assigned.
• Arms the system in Away mode when the zone is activated.
• Pushbutton units send the user number to the central station when arming or
disarming.
• User number for button must be assigned.
• Disarms the system when the zone is activated.
• User number for button must be assigned.

Type 23 *
No Alarm Response

• Can be used on a zone when an output relay action is desired, but with no
accompanying alarm (e.g., lobby door access).

Type 10
Interior w/Delay

Type 12

Types 90-93
Configurable

• Usually assigned to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows where
bells and/or sirens are NOT desired.
• Provides an instant alarm, with NO audible indication at any keypad or external
sounder, if the zone is faulted when the system is armed in the Away, Stay,
Instant, or Maximum modes.
• A report is sent to the central station.
• Assign to zone wired to a keyswitch.
• Do not use devices assigned as input type “BR” with this zone type.
• Assign to zone connected to AAV module.
• Monitors 2-way voice sessions as follows:
- When the zone is faulted, all alarm sounding and dialer reporting stops, except
for fire alarms, which immediately terminate the voice session and cause
a fire report to be sent.
- When the zone is restored (session ended), sounding resumes (if bell timeout
has not expired) and reports that were stopped are sent.
Allows for various custom responses. Options include response to entry/exit delays,
response opens/shorts, types of alarm/trouble sounding, dial delay, and unique
Contact ID report codes. Types 92 and 93 can only be programmed via downloader.
UL installations: Zone Types 90 -93 may not be used as fire or burglar alarm zones
on fire or UL burglar alarm installations.

* The system can still be armed when these zone types are in a faulted condition.
NOTE: All of the zone types described are available for the wireless portion of the system, if used.

Mechanics of Programming
To program the system from a keypad:
• You must use a 2-line Alpha display keypad.
• Both partitions must be disarmed.

If enabled, a report is sent if the system detects an RF jamming
signal.
UL installations must be 1 if wireless devices are used.

0 = no RF jam detection
1 = send RF jam report

0 = no quick bypass
1 = allow quick bypass (code + [6] + [#] )

00 = disable all wireless keypad usage
01–31 = House ID for partition 1, 2 and
common

0 = no zone list (chimes on fault of any
entry/exit or perimeter zone when chime
mode on)
1 = use zone list (chimes on fault of
specific zones programmed in relay
zone list 3 when Chime mode on)

9=J
# + 10 = K

# + 11 = L
# + 12 = M
# + 13 = N
# + 14 = O
# + 15 = P

Access Code for Phone Module
1-9 = first digit of access code
∗ or # = second digit of access code (enter #
+11 for “∗”, or # +12 for “#”)

All zones bypassed by this function will be displayed after the bypass
is initiated.
UL installations must be 0 (no forced bypass)
The House ID identifies receivers and wireless keypads. If a 5827 or
5827BD Wireless Keypad or 5804BD Transmitter is being used, a
House ID code must be entered, and the keypad should be set to the
same House ID. You can assign RF house ID for each partition.
If enabled, you can define the specific zones intended to chime when
faulted while the system is in Chime mode. Use zone list 3 to assign
these zones (see ∗81 Zone List Programming section for details).

Powerline Carrier devices require a House ID, identified in this field.
Program Powerline Carrier devices in interactive modes ∗79, *80 and
*81.
Not intended for fire or UL installations.

You need to assign a 2-digit access code for the FA4285/FA4286

This control complies with NFPA requirements for temporal pulse
sounding of fire notification appliances.
Temporal pulse sounding for a fire alarm consists of the following:
3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses.
UL fire alarm installations: must be 1.
This field determines whether the external sounder will shut off
after time allotted, or continue until manually turned off.
UL installations: For residential fire alarm installation, must be set
for a minimum of 4 min (option 1); for UL Commercial Burglary
installations, must be minimum of 16 min (option 4).
The system waits the time entered before arming entry/exit zones. If
the entry/exit door is left open after this time expires, an alarm will
occur. Common zones use same delay as partition 1.
UL installations: For UL Commercial Burglar Alarm (Grade AA) and
UL Residential Burglar Alarm installations with line security, total
exit time must not exceed 60 seconds. For UL Burglar Alarm
installations without line security (Grade A), total exit time must not
exceed 120 seconds.
SIA Installations: minimum exit delay is 45 seconds
Upon entering, the system must be disarmed before the time entered
expires, otherwise it sounds an alarm. Common zones use same
delay as partition 1.
UL installations: For UL Residential Burglary Alarm installations,
must be set for a maximum of 30 seconds; entry delay plus dial delay
should not exceed 1 min. For UL Commercial Burglar Alarm, total
entry delay may not exceed 45 seconds.
SIA Installations: minimum entry delay is 30 seconds
See *35 above for explanation.

See *35 above for entries.
0 = no; 1 = yes

0 = no ding
1 = confirmation ding after arming system
2 = confirmation ding after arming from RF
button or RF keypad only

0 = always power-up in a disarmed state
1 = assume the system status prior to
power down

Warning sound consists of slow continuous beeps until last 10 seconds,
then it changes to fast beeps. Sound ends when exit time expires.
SIA Installations: must be enabled (enter 1)
Confirmation of arming is 1/2 second external sounder “ding.”
If “1” selected, ding occurs when closing report is sent, or at the end
of Exit Delay.
If “2” selected, ding occurs upon reception of the wireless arming
command.
UL installations: must be “1” for UL Commercial Burglar Alarm
installations.
When the system powers up armed, an alarm will occur 1 minute
after arming if a zone is faulted.
Note that if the previous state was armed Away or Stay, the system
will not respond to sensor changes for 1 minute, which allows time
for sensors such as PIRs to stabilize.
UL installations: must be 1 (power-up in previous state)

Dynamic Signaling Delay

Intended for use with Long Range Radio reporting.
This field lets you select the time the panel should wait for
acknowledgment from the first reporting destination (see ∗55) before
it attempts to send a message to the second destination. Delays can
be selected from 0 to 225 seconds, in 15-second increments. This
delay is per message. If ”0” is entered in this field, the control panel
will send redundant reports to both Primary Dialer and LRR.
UL Installations:
For Fire Alarm and UL Burglar Alarm installations without Line
Security (Grade A), the maximum Dynamic Signaling Delay must
be no more than 15 seconds.
For UL Burglar Alarm installations with Line Security (Grade
AA), Dynamic Signaling Delay must be “0”. The reports will be sent
to both the dialer and the LRR.

*55

0 = disabled (both signals sent)
1–15 = entry times a 15-second delay.
e.g., 1 = 15 seconds, 2 = 30 seconds, etc.

Dynamic Signaling Priority
0 = Primary dialer first;
1 = Long Range Radio (LRR) first.
UL Installations: For UL Commercial
Burglary installations that use a DACT and
LRR, the DACT must be programmed for
priority (option “0”).

Intended for use with Long Range Radio reporting.
You must also enable field ∗29, OUTPUT TO LONG RANGE RADIO.
Select the initial reporting destination for messages as follows:
Primary Dialer First selected (0):
• If acknowledged before delay expires (see ∗54), then message will
not be sent to LRR.
• If not acknowledged before delay expires, then message is sent to
both the Primary Phone No. and LRR.
Long Range Radio First selected (1):
• If acknowledged before delay expires, then message will not be
sent to the primary dialer.
• If not acknowledged before delay expires, then message is sent to
both the Primary Phone No. and LRR.

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 and second digits) for 1–9 or A–F, as described
above. An entry of 0 in the first box disables a report. An entry of 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.

Exit Error Report Code

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 displays “CA” (fixed-word) or “CANCELED ALARM” (alpha
display).
If the system is not disarmed before entry delay expires, an “EXIT
ALARM” message will be sent to the central station if Exit Error
Report Code is enabled. 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

Auto-Stay Arm

If enabled, the system will automatically change
AWAY/MAXIMUM modes to STAY/INSTANT modes
respectively if the entry/exit door is not opened and closed
within the exit delay time after a user arms in AWAY mode
from a wired keypad (non-RF device). An Opening report
followed by an Armed Stay report is sent to the Central Station.
If the door is opened and closed within the exit delay period, the
system remains in AWAY mode.
Any RF device that arms the system AWAY overrides this
feature and the system remains armed in the AWAY mode.

Program Mode Lockout Options

EXPLANATION
When enabled (1 = yes), this feature causes a “CANCELED
ALARM” display on the LCD keypad under the following
conditions:
• After the kissoff of the cancel message to the Central Station,
indicating a successful transmission.
• When an alarm is successfully canceled before the Central
Station received the Alarm message. E.g., if an alarm is
incorrectly triggered and the user presses code + OFF before
the dial delay time has expired, the message will never go out
to the CS.
• When the Cancel report is not enabled and the system is
disarmed:
a. before dialer delay expires (alarm report not sent)
message “Canceled Alarm” is displayed.
b. after dialer delay expires message “Canceled Alarm” is
not displayed.

This system has the ability to record various events in a history log
(FA168CPS = 100 events; FA148CP = 50 events). At any time, the
downloader operator can then upload the log and view or print out all
or selected categories of the log. The downloader operator can also
clear the log. Event log can also be viewed at an alpha keypad.
The display/printout at the central station will show the date, time,
event, and description of the occurrences.
Data Entry Example: To select Alarm/Alarm Restore” and
“Open/Close”, enter 9 (1+ 8); to select all events, enter #15.

IMPORTANT: AAV should not be used when Paging or Alarm
Reports are sent to a secondary number unless the monitoring zone
option is used (which pauses calls). Otherwise, the call to the
secondary number by the communicator after the alarm report will
prevent the AAV from taking control of the telephone line, and the
AAV “Listen in” session cannot take place.

FOR SIA INSTALLATIONS: Exit delay
should be enabled.
Multiple choice example: for both AAV and
Exit delay restart, enter # + 12 (4 + 8).

• # (enter # + 12 to send #)
• Pause (enter # + 13 to allow a 2-second pause)*
• Any special character(s) the end user may decide to transmit
* Some paging systems require pause(s) before the prefix.
The format for the 7-digit system status code is defined as follows:
Pager Format: XXX-YYYY where:
XXX
= 3-digit event code: 911 = Alarm
811 = Trouble
101 = Opening (disarm)
102 = Closing (arm AWAY)
YYYY
= 4-digit user or zone number (depending on type of event).
The first digit indicates partition (0 = system, 1 = part 1,
2 = part 2, 3 = common), followed by the 3-digit user or
zone number.
Example 1. Pager displays: 9 1 1 – 1 0 0 4
This indicates that the system is reporting an alarm (911) caused by
a fault in zone 4 (0004) in partition 1.
Example 2. Pager displays: 1 0 2 – 2 0 0 5
This indicates that the system is reporting a closing–system arming

About Zone Programming
✱56

Zone Programming is used to program zones, zone types, report codes, enroll 5800 RF Wireless
Transmitter serial numbers, and identify the type of loop input device(s). This mode can also be used
to enter alpha descriptors for programmed zones; however, we recommend entering descriptors in
menu mode ✱82 (Alpha Descriptor Programming after all zone programming has been completed).
For a faster method of zone programming, you can use the ✱58 Expert Programming Mode instead of
✱56 Zone programming. The ✱58 Expert Programming Mode is designed for those who have had
previous experience in programming control panels of this type.
NOTE: Alpha display prompts are shown in a double-line box.
✱56

Zone Programming Procedure

Zone Programming involves:
1. Entering the zone number to be programmed;
2. Making appropriate entries at the prompts;
3. Confirming the serial number of wireless transmitter zones.
Start Zone Programming mode by pressing ✱56 while in Data Programming mode. The following
prompts are displayed:

All of the RF transmitters have one or more unique factory-assigned
input (loop) ID codes. Each of the inputs requires its own
programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four inputs require four
programming zones).
RF Transmitters can be enrolled as one of the following types:
Type
Description
“RF”
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as
(Supervised RF)
fault, restore, and low-battery signals. The
transmitter must stay within receiver's range.
“UR”
Sends all the signals that the “RF” type
(Unsupervised RF) does, but the control does not supervise the
check-in signals. The transmitter may therefore
be carried off-premises.
“BR” (Unsupervised Sends only fault signals. It will not send a
Button RF)
low-battery signal until it is activated. The
transmitter may be carried off-premises.
NOTE:
• For the built-in hardwired zones, the Input Device type is
automatically displayed as HW and cannot be edited.
• To change the input type of a previously programmed wireless
device (type RF, UR, BR) to a wired zone (type AW), you must first
delete transmitter’s serial number (see To Delete A Serial Number

Completing Zone Programming
When you have finished programming all zones, test each zone using the system’s TEST mode. Do
not use the Transmitter ID Sniffer Mode for checking wireless transmitting devices, as it
will only check for transmission of one zone on a particular transmitter, NOT the zones assigned to
each additional loop.
NOTE: Following the successful enrollment of each wireless device, note the device serial number in
the appropriate column on the ENROLLED TRANSMITTERS worksheet in the Programming Form;
then enter the other information (zone number, zone type, loop number, etc.) relevant to that device.

The FA168CPS system supports up to 16 relays and/or Powerline Carrier
devices (X-10 devices) plus 2 built-in trigger outputs in any combination.
These 18 “outputs” are assigned to system-wide output numbers (01-18). Use
*79 Menu Mode to assign output numbers and map them to device addresses.
The FA148CP supports 8 relays and 2 built-in trigger outputs (total 10
outputs).

Output Functions: The system also provides installer-defined output functions, which can be
assigned to any of the physical outputs. Therefore, the action of any one of the
outputs can be based on as many of these functions as desired. This lets a single
relay or X-10 device perform many functions.
The controls support up to 48 output functions.
Use *80 Menu Mode to define output functions.
Relays and output devices are not recommended for life safety applications.
NOTE: When navigating the *79 and *80 menus: The [✱] key is used to accept an entry and advance
to the next prompt. The [#] key is used to revert back to the last question to check or change an
entry. Press [✱] to go forward again.
Output Device programming involves:
1. Use *79 Menu Mode to assign module and output numbers and map them to device addresses.
NOTE: You must map output devices using *79 Menu Mode before you can use *80 menu Mode.
2. Use *80 Menu Mode to create output definitions, which control the output devices.

*79 Menu Mode: Output Device Mapping
Use this menu to assign Relay Module device addresses and specific relay numbers, and Powerline
Carrier unit numbers. The system is based on predefined module addresses for 4204 and 4229
modules. Refer to the table shown at the “Module Address” prompt on the next page and set the
modules’ addresses (via module DIP switches) accordingly.
The following table shows how these outputs are identified.

*80 Menu Mode: Defining Output Functions
Use this mode to program output function definitions (up to 48 functions) that provide automated
control of any of the output devices, based on events occurring on individual zones or zones with
certain zone types. Each output definition is identified by an output function number, and includes
the following components:
Output Definition Components
Component

Description

Output Function No.

A reference number that defines an output’s characteristics.

Activated By

Determines whether the initiating event occurs on a zone, a zone list, or a zone type.

Event

Event that triggers the output action. Can be an event occurring on a specific zone
number or a zone list, or a specific zone type.

Partition

If the output is activated by zone type, this defines the partition in which the
programmed event is to cause the device action.

Output Action

Defines the action of the relay/X-10 device when the defined event occurs. Can close for
2 seconds, stay closed until reset, continuously pulse (1-second close-open-close-open,
etc.), toggle the device state, or activate for a defined duration (set in data field *177).

Output No.

Assigns this function to a specific output number (defined in *79 Menu Mode). This is
the output number that will perform this function upon the triggering event. Note that
each defined function is associated with only one output number. This means that if
more than one output device needs to perform this particular function, you need to
define another output function number with the same attributes, but assign the
appropriate output number. (i.e. output devices can be assigned more than one function
number, but each function number can only be assigned a single output number.

For example, if you want to pulse a strobe light upon fire alarms on zone 4 using a relay mapped to
output number 2 (as programmed in *79 Menu Mode), program the following in *80 Menu Mode:
Prompt

Output Funct. # = 01 (assuming this is the first output function)

Alpha Descriptor Programming
(*82 Menu Mode)

About Descriptor Programming
The system lets you assign zone descriptors for protection zones, keypad panics, and RF receiver
supervision faults. Each description can be composed of a combination of words (up to 3) selected from
a vocabulary of 196 words stored in memory (see a following page). In addition, up to 10 installerdefined words can be added to those already in memory, plus 3 additional words can be assigned as
partition descriptors. Thus, when an alarm or trouble occurs in a zone, an appropriate description for
that zone's location can be displayed at the keypad. Zone descriptors are recommended for systems
using Alpha display keypads, and are necessary if a FA4285 or FA4286 VIP Phone Module is used.
NOTE: You can enter zone descriptors when the zone is being defined in ✱56 Menu mode, but we
recommend you do it using ✱82 Menu mode.
If using a FA4285 or FA4286 VIP Phone Module, select from those words in the Alpha Vocabulary
List shown in boldface type. The phone module will not provide annunciation of the other words.
If a FA4285/FA4286 Phone Module is added to an existing system, the Alpha descriptors
presently in the system should be reprogrammed, selecting from those words shown in boldface
type in the Alpha Vocabulary List. The phone module will not provide annunciation of any other
words.

Programming Zone Descriptors (Menu Mode ∗82)
Descriptor programming involves:
1. Entering index numbers for up to three words from the vocabulary list for each descriptor;
2. Entering up to ten 10-digit custom words, if desired, which can then be used in descriptors.
When defining descriptors:
• Pressing the [6] key accepts the entered index number and moves the cursor to the next position
for a descriptor.
• Pressing the [8] key saves the entered descriptor and moves to the next descriptor.
Start Zone Descriptor Programming mode by pressing *82 while in Data Programming mode. The

Adding Custom Words (will not be annunciated by FA4285/FA4286 Phone Module)
You can add up to 10 installer-defined words to the built-in vocabulary, which can then be used
when programming zone descriptors. Each of the 10 words can actually consist of a word string of
one or more words, but no more than ten characters can be used for each word or word string.
When adding custom words, the keypad keys perform the following functions:
[4] Moves cursor one space to the left.
[6] Moves cursor one space to the right.
[8] Saves the new word in the system's memory.
1. Select Custom Word mode (enter 1) when the prompt “&86720 :25' "” is displayed.
2. Enter the number (01–10†) of the custom word or word string to be created, corresponding to
index numbers 245 - 254 respectively (for example, if you are creating the first custom word or
word-string, enter 01, for the second, enter 02, etc.). A cursor will now appear at the beginning of
the second line.
† or 11, 12, 13 for partition 1, partition 2 and common partition descriptors respectively. See
Assigning Partition Descriptors paragraph below.
NOTE: Custom words 8, 9, and 10 are “reminder words” that can be programmed to display using
Scheduling Mode.
3. Refer to the Character List of letters, numbers, and symbols on a following page.
Press [#], followed by the two-digit entry for the first letter you would like to display
(e.g., # 6 5 for “A”).
The cursor will then move to the right, in position for the next character.
4. Repeat Step 3 to create the desired word(s). Note that the “4” key can be used to move the cursor
to the left, if necessary. Remember, no word or word-string can exceed 10 characters.
5. Press the [8] key to save the custom word(s) and return to the “&86720 :25' "” display.
Repeat Steps 2–5 for other custom words to be entered. To change a custom word, just overwrite
it. If no more are to be entered now, press [0] to return to the Descriptor entry. The custom
word(s) will be automatically added to the built-in vocabulary.
Assigning Partition/Custom Message Descriptors
FA148CP: You can create a custom message display that appears on alpha keypads instead of
“System Ready.” To assign a custom message, use word number 11 as described below.
FA168CPS: You can assign a partition descriptor (up to 16 characters) for each partition plus the
common lobby.
Use the same procedure as for adding custom words (described above), but use the following word
numbers in step 2:
11 = partition 1 ___________________________________________
12 = partition 2 ___________________________________________ (FA168CPS only)
13 = common lobby ________________________________________ (FA168CPS only)
Use the SPACE character (#32) to delete existing characters.
Once a custom word is entered in any of these word locations (11-13), the system displays the
appropriate partition’s word instead of the normal “DISARMED READY TO ARM” message.

Creating Schedules
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

About Schedules
The FA168CPS system provides up to 32 schedules (FA148CP supports 8), which can be used to control
11 types of system events at pre-defined times. Sixteen schedules are intended for use by the end-user,
and sixteen are reserved for the installer (FA148CP = 4 user schedules, 4 installer schedules). In
addition, some events are also reserved for the installer only (listed in the “Enter Event” prompt
paragraph below).
Start Scheduling mode by entering installer code + [#] + [6] [4] while in normal operating mode.
NOTE: The master code can only access schedules 01-16 (FA148CP = 01-04) and events 00-07.
The following prompts are displayed:

If selected, the scheduled start and stop times will vary within 60
minutes of the “hour” time. For example, if a schedule is set to start
at 6:15pm, it will do so the first time 6:15pm arrives, but on
subsequent days it will start anytime between 6:00 and 6:59 p.m.
NOTE: Do not use the random option if the start and stop times are
within the same “hour” setting, otherwise unpredictable results may
occur (e.g., the randomized stop time may occur before the start time).

System Communication

Panel Communication with Central Station
This system accommodates several formats 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 receiver; and the actual way the information is sent
and displayed at the Central Station.
When the panel calls the Central Station receiver, it waits 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 hears
the handshake it is programmed to listen for, it sends its message. The panel then waits for a “kissoff”
frequency from the receiver acknowledging that the message was received and understood.
If the handshake frequency is not given or is not understood by the panel, the panel will not send its
message. Once the handshake frequency is received and understood by the panel, the panel sends its
message. If there is an error in the transmission (the receiver does not receive a “valid” message), the
kissoff frequency is not given by the Central Station receiver.
The panel makes 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 displays COMM. FAILURE (on alpha keypads) or
FC (on fixed-word keypads).

Report Code Formats
The following chart indicates the types of (handshake/kissoff) frequencies that the panel supports and

levels; any user can be assigned the partition master authority level)
perform security functions (arm, disarm, etc.) only; cannot add/delete
users, view event log, set system clock or program scheduled events
arm system only
can disarm the system only if it was used to arm the system
performs security functions, but also silently sends a duress message to
the central station; reports as duress code user number.
FA168CPS. See Partition Master paragraph above; used to assign
other user numbers as partition masters

† FA168CPS; †† FA148CP
Refer to the user guide for detailed procedures on adding/deleting security codes and changing user
attributes.
The following is a brief description of how to add user codes.
Changing the System Master code...
• Using Installer code: Installer code + [8] + 02 + new code
• Using current System Master code: System Master code + [8] + 02 + new code + new code again
Adding a User Code:

Testing the System
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

About Test Procedures
After the installation is complete, you should perform the following tests:
System Test:
Checks that all zones have been installed properly and the system properly
responds to faults.
Dialer Test:
Checks that the phone connection to the central station is working properly.
Go/No Go Test:
Checks that transmissions can be received from transmitters. Should be
performed before permanently mounting transmitters.
RF Sniffer Mode: Checks that RF transmitter serial numbers have been properly entered into the
system.
Battery Tests:
Automatic battery tests are performed by the system. See Automatic Battery Test
paragraph for details.

System Test
With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact (not faulted). Doors and
windows with contacts should be closed, PIRs should be covered (use a cloth to mask them
temporarily if necessary). If a “NOT READY” message is displayed, press [∗] to display the faulted
zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s) if necessary, so that the “READY” message is displayed.
1. Enter Installer Code + 5 [TEST] , then press “0” at the prompt to start Walk Test mode.
1=DIAL, 0=WALK

(no special display on Fixed-Word keypads)

The following will be displayed:
TEST IN PROGRESS

(“dd” displayed on Fixed-Word Display Keypads)

A Contact ID report will also be sent (code 607)
2. Upon entering the system test mode, the outside sounder should sound for 1 second.
If the backup battery is discharged or missing, the sounder may not turn on and a “LOW
BATTERY” report will be transmitted with a “TEST” report.
The keypad will beep about every 40 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.
NOTE: Wireless motion detectors (Passive Infrared units) will send signals out only if they have
been inactive for 3 minutes (conserves battery life).
3. Test all sensors using the procedure described in the User’s Guide “Testing the System” section.
4. After checking sensors, turn off the test mode by entering installer code + OFF.
NOTE: Test mode automatically ends after 4 hours. During the final 5 minutes (after 3 hours 55
minutes of Test mode), the keypad emits a double-beep every 30 seconds to alert that the end of
Test mode is nearing.

Installation Instructions

Checking Transmitter Enrollment (Sniffer Mode)
Use this mode to verify that all transmitters have been properly programmed. Make sure both
partitions are disarmed before trying to enter this mode, since this is a system-wide command.
1. Press [Installer code] + [#] + 3.
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 keypads in both partitions will display all zone numbers of wireless units (in both partitions)
programmed into the system. Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to send a signal.
As the system receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone number of that
transmitter disappears from the display.
2. After all transmitters have been checked, exit the sniffer mode by keying [Installer code] + OFF.
IMPORTANT: Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit Sniffer
mode (by entering [Installer code] + OFF) to return to normal operation.
Notes:
• All BR type units must physically be activated to clear the display.
• When one button of a transmitter (RF, UR, or BR) is activated, all zones assigned to other
buttons on that transmitter are cleared. This also applies to 5816 and 5817 transmitters, which
have multiple loops (zones).
• Any transmitter that is not “enrolled” will not turn off its zone number.

Go/No Go Test Mode
The Go/No Go Test verifies adequate RF signal strength from the proposed transmitter location, and
allow you to reorient or relocate transmitters if necessary, before mounting the transmitters
permanently. This mode is similar to the Transmitter Test mode, except that the wireless receiver
gain is reduced. This will enable you to make sure that the RF signal from each transmitter is
received with sufficient signal amplitude when the system is in the normal operating mode.
1. Enter [Installer code] + [#] + 4 from the partition being tested. For multi-partition systems, repeat
this test for each partition.
2. After you have placed transmitters in their desired locations and the approximate length of wire
to be run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw terminals (if used), fault each
transmitter. Do not conduct this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter, as this will
cause inaccurate results.
a. The keypad will beep three times to indicate signal reception and display the appropriate zone
number.
b. If the keypad does not beep, you should reorient or move the transmitter to another location.
Usually a few inches in either direction is all that is required.
4. If each transmitter produces the proper keypad response when it is faulted, you can then
permanently mount each of the transmitters according to the instructions provided with them.
5. Exit the Go/No Go Test mode by entering: [any user code (partition-specific)] + OFF.

13-2

Dialer Communication Test and Periodic Test Reports
1. Enter Installer Code + 5 [TEST], then press “1” at the prompt to start the Dialer Test.
1=DIAL, 0=WALK

(no special display on Fixed-Word keypads)

The following will be displayed (accompanied by 2 beeps) if test is successful:
PHONE OKAY

(“Cd” displayed on Fixed-Word Display Keypads)

A Contact ID report will also be sent (code 601)
If the dialer test is unsuccessful, the following is displayed:
COMM FAILURE

(“FC” displayed on Fixed-Word Display Keypads)

2. Enter Installer code + OFF to clear the display and exit.
Automatic Periodic Test Report
The system can be set to automatically send test reports (enabled in field *64; Contact ID code 602) at
specified intervals.
Frequency of the reports is set in Scheduling mode (event 11) or by the following key commands:
installer code + [#] + 0 + 0 = test report sent every 24 hours
installer code + [#] + 0 + 1 = test report sent once per week
installer code + [#] + 0 + 2 = test report sent every 28 days

Each mode sets schedule 32 (FA168CPS) or schedule 08 (FA148CP) to the selected repeat option; first
test report sent 12 hours after command.
To ensure that test reports are sent at the times expected, set the Real-Time Clock to the proper time
before entering the test report schedule command.
Automatic Standby Battery Tests
1. An automatic test is conducted every 3 minutes to ensure that a standby battery is present and
properly connected. If a battery is not present or is not properly connected, a “LOW BATTERY”
message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central station.
2. A battery capacity test is automatically conducted for 2 minutes every 4 hours, beginning 4 hours
after exiting the Programming mode or after powering up the system. In addition, entry into the
Test mode will also cause a battery capacity test to be initiated. If the battery cannot sustain a
load, a “Low Battery” message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central
station.

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:
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an
alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.
• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will
not work without power. Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if
the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is
cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm
receiver. 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 beams. 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-impaired 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 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

Installation Instructions

WARNING
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
(Continued)
The most common cause of an alarm system not 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, depending on the environment, usage, and
the specific wireless device being used. External factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as
large swings in temperature, may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. This wireless system,
however, can identify a true low-battery situation, thus allowing time 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.

LIMITED WARRANTY
Honeywell International Inc., acting through its First Alert Professional business ("Seller"), 165
Eileen Way, Syosset, New York 11791, warrants its First Alert products to be in conformance with its
own plans and specifications and to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal
use and service for 36 months from the date stamp control on the product or, for products not having
a date stamp, for 30 months from date of original purchase unless the installation instructions or
catalog sets forth a shorter period, in which case the shorter period shall apply. Seller's obligation
shall be limited to repairing or replacing, at its option, free of charge for materials or labor, any product which is proved not in compliance with Seller's specifications or proves defective in materials or
workmanship under normal use and service. Seller shall have no obligation under this Limited
Warranty or otherwise if the product is altered or improperly repaired or serviced by anyone other
than First Alert Professional factory service. For warranty service, return product transportation
prepaid, to:
First Alert Professional Factory Service, 165 Eileen Way, Syosset, New York 11791.
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE
DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF. IN NO CASE SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE
FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY
OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR UPON ANY OTHER BASIS OF LIABILITY
WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER'S OWN
NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.
Seller does not represent that the products it sells may not be compromised or circumvented; that the
products will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or
that the products will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Customer understands
that a properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of a burglary, robbery, fire
or other events occurring without providing an alarm, but it is not insurance or a guarantee that
such will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a result.
CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY,
PROPERTY DAMAGE OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE
WARNING. HOWEVER, IF SELLER IS HELD LIABLE, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY,
FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE,
REGARDLESS OF CAUSE OR ORIGIN, SELLER'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY SHALL NOT IN ANY
CASE EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, WHICH SHALL BE THE
COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER. This warranty replaces any previous
warranties and is the only warranty made by Seller on this product. No increase or alteration,
written or verbal, of the obligations of this Limited Warranty is authorized
