This system uses addressable keypads and a Zone Expander Module (see table of addresses in
Programming Overview section).
Keypads must be set for addresses 16-23 (first keypad is address 16, which is different from
previous controls) and programmed in data fields *190-*196.
Zone Expander Module must be set for specific address (08), based on the zone numbers used
(see table of addresses in 4219/4229 Expansion Zones section).
4204 Relay Module must be set for specific address (13; see Connecting Relay Modules section).
6164 Keypads must be set for two addresses: a keypad address and a zone expander address (if
using the keypad’s expansion zones).
This control will not power-up unless AC mains is connected (will not power-up on battery
alone). However, once the system is powered up, it will operate on battery power in the event
of AC mains loss.
Relays have two programming menu modes: Use *79 Menu mode to map module addresses
and device (output) numbers. Use *80 Menu mode to define the output functions (see Output
Device Programming section).
This system supports programmable function keys. Use *57 Menu mode to define the function
keys (see Function Key Programming section).
This system provides various paging features. Refer to the Programming Overview section
for a summary on pager programming.

that can be safely used for each wire size.
• Use supplementary power if the control’s aux.
power load for all devices exceeds 700mA.
Suggested power supply: AD12612
Aux Power Supervision Connections
To supervise aux power:
1. Use the Trigger Module terminals for
ground and +12V connections (instead of
main board terminals 4 and 5). See
Trigger Module and On-Board Triggers
section (page 2-17) for instructions on
mounting the Trigger Module.
2. Connect the SUPV terminal to a zone (+)
terminal.
3. Program that zone as a configurable zone
type programmed as a 24-hour zone and
with the desired report code (CID code 312
is recommended).

• Use of up to two AUI devices (e.g., 6270, Symphony)
is independent from standard keypads and does not
affect the number of standard keypads the system
can support.
• AUI devices must be set for either address 1 or
address 2, depending on which unit is enabled in
field *189.
• To ensure proper AUI device operation, connect
only to controls having microprocessor version 3.0
or higher, and use AUI devices with the following
rev levels: 6270 series use version 1.0.9 or higher;
8132/8142 (Symphony) series use version 1.1.175 or
higher.

Maximum wire lengths for any device that is wired directly to the control can also be determined from the Wiring Run
Chart, based on the current drain of that device alone.
The length of all wire runs for all partitions combined must not exceed 457m when unshielded quad conductor cable is
used (228m if shielded/screened cable is used). This restriction is due to the capacitive effect on the data lines when
quad cable is used.

Mounting and Wiring the Control

Sounder (Siren) Connections

Wiring the AC Transformer

1. Make sounder connections to alarm output
terminals 3 (+) and 4 (–).
For supervised output, continue with steps 2 and
3.
2. Cut the red Siren 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.

Transformer:
Connect the Transformer to terminals 1 and 2
on the control board. See wiring table at bottom
of page for wire size to use.
Use wired-in or plug-in 110 (e.g., 1321)/220VAC
transformer, with 16.5VAC, 25VA output.

• Total current drain 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 activate).
• You must install a battery, since the battery
supplies this current.
• Do NOT perform steps 2 and 3 if using a selfactivated siren.

Using Powerline Carrier (X-10) Devices
If using Powerline Carrier (X-10) devices, a
separate powerline modulator must be used,
which is connected to the supplied Trigger
Module via an SA4120XM-1 cable. See your
local distributor for available modulators and
connecting cable.
Notes
• 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
76m using 1.2mm O.D. 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.
• Do not connect to AC mains power while
making any wiring connections to the control.
As a safety precaution, always power down
the control when making such connections.

Installation and Setup Guide

Backup Battery

Notes

1. Place the 12-volt backup battery in the cabinet.
2. After all connections to the control are
completed and AC mains 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.

Earth Ground

Notes

Metal Cold Water Pipe or Earth Ground Rod:
Use a non-corrosive metal strap (copper is
recommended) firmly secured to the pipe/rod to
which the ground lead is electrically connected and
secured.

2-6

Operating on Battery Power Alone:
To operate the control on battery power only,
connect a jumper between the negative (–)
battery terminal and control PCB terminal 4
(– aux power).

• This product has been designed and
tested 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 some
installations.

4-Wire Smoke Detectors
Connect 4-wire smoke detectors (up to 16,
depending on detector current drain) to any
zone from 2-8 as shown on the next page. 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 17
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.

•

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 does not
trigger again, the control will disregard the
first trigger, and no alarm signal will occur.
This feature eliminates false alarms from
smoke detectors due to electrical or physical
transients.
Maximum current for trigger 17 output for 4wire smoke detectors is 300mA.

Installation and Setup Guide

Installing the RF Receiver
Use one of the following receivers:
RF Receiver
Number of Zones
5881ENL
up to 8 (including keyfob
buttons)
5881ENM
up to 16 (including keyfob
buttons)
1.

Set Device Address to “00” as described in its
instructions (set all switches to the right, “off”
position).
Mount the receiver, noting that the RF receiver can
detect signals from transmitters within a
nominal range of 67m.
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.
If power supervision is required, use the Trigger
Module terminals as described in the Aux
Power Supervision Connections paragraph
in the Wiring to Keypads section (page 2-3).

Notes
•

•

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.
Only one receiver can be installed in a
system.

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 3m
from any keypads to avoid interference
from the microprocessors in those units.

Mounting and Wiring the Control

Installing a 5800TM Module

Notes

•

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.
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 in 345Hz RF
systems and if you are using one or more
wireless bi-directional keypads or keyfob;
5800TM is not necessary if using a
Transceiver (e.g., 5883).
The 5800TM must be set to address 28
(cut red-W1 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

•

To be sure reception of the transmitter's signal
at the proposed mounting location is adequate,
perform a Go/No Go Test (see 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,
5804BD, 5827, 5827BD) do not send check-in
signals.

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, 5802MN2, 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.

•

Connect field wiring to the desired trigger
terminal on the trigger module (TRIG 1 =
output 17; TRIG 2 = output 18) and the
VTRIG +12V terminal.
For supervised trigger operation, refer to the
following:
Trigger Voltage/Aux Power Supervision
To supervise trigger voltage and/or aux
power:
A. For Aux Power: Use the Trigger Module
terminals for ground and +12V
connections (instead of main board
terminals 4 and 5).
For Trigger Voltage: Connect trigger
wiring as described in step 1 above.
B. Connect the SUPV terminal on the
Trigger Module to a zone (+) terminal.
C. Program that zone as a configurable zone
type programmed as a 24-hour zone and
with the desired report code (CID code
312 is recommended).

If using a Powerline Interface Modulator and
powerline carrier devices, use the
SA4120XM-1 cable (part of 4120TR Trigger

Device section.
Install the Trigger Module by aligning its 8pin header over the main PC board’s 8-pin
connector (orient the Trigger Module as
shown on the Summary of Connections
diagram), then press down firmly until the
Trigger Module’s standoffs are seated on the
main PC board.

•

•
•
•

There are two on-board triggers that can
be used to activate output devices.
These 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
300mA.
pin 5 = output number 18 (trigger 2):
15 ohms to ground when closed
(output low); open when off (output
high, normal default); or can
support 12V relay module that
draws less than 300mA.

• NOTE: Do not exceed 700mA combined
current for both triggers and aux
power. Doing so can damage PC
board components and will void the
system’s warranty.

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 compatible personal computer, a CIA/CIA-EU modem, and Compass downloading software.
The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system:
Programming Mode…

Used to …

Data Field Programming

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.
Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and
serial numbers for RF transmitters.
Program each of the four function keys to perform one of several
system functions.
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.
Assign device addresses used by 4229/4204 Relay modules or
6164 keypad and map specific relays and device outputs, and
assign unit codes for Powerline Carrier devices
Define up to 12 output definitions which can control the output
relays mapped using *79 Output Device Mapping mode.

Installation and Setup Guide

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 system can control three independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by
independent users, if desired.
Partitioning involves simply assigning zones to one of the three partitions during zone programming:
•
The user’s partition number can be displayed on keypads by enabling data field *198.
•
The system, by default, automatically distributes users among the three partitions.
•
The master user can change the user number distributions.
•
Zones can also be assigned to a common area partition if partition 3 is so designated, which is
an area shared by users of the other two partitions (such as a lobby in a building).
•
Common area partition allows either of the independent partitions to arm, while leaving the
common area partition disarmed for access into the other partition.
•
The following describes the functioning of the common area partition, if used:
-- The common area sounds and reports alarms only when both the other partitions are
armed. If only one partition is armed, the system ignores faults in the common area.
-- Either partition may arm its system if the common area is faulted, but once armed, the
other partition will not be able to arm unless the common area zones are first bypassed or
their faults are corrected.
-- Faults in the common area are displayed on common area keypads, and will also appear
on another partition’s keypad when that partition is armed.
•
Either partition can clear and restore the common area after an alarm.

Pager Programming
The system can send various reports to up to 2 pagers.
To program pager reporting, do the following:
1. Enter the appropriate information in the following data fields:
*160, *163 Pager Phone Numbers (for pagers 1and 2 respectively)
*161, *164, Pager Prefix Characters (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
*162, *165, Pager Reporting Options by Partition† (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
2.
3.

4.
5.
6.

Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *166 (delays alarm reporting for ALL pagers).
Enable appropriate user open/close pager reports using the user attribute command
(master code + [8] + user no. + [#] [5] + [1]). Users that perform actions in their assigned
partition will, if enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for open/close reporting in
that partition.
If using child-not-home pager report, define the report schedule using Scheduling mode
(master code + [#] [6] [4] then select event type “03”).
If using a function key to manually send a message to a pager, see Function Keys paragraph
below.
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 9-11).

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.

Programming Overview

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 when
Disarmed/
Alarm when Armed

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 type 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 for each partition.
• Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the
arming mode selected, and is programmable for each partition. (If Final
Contact Set exit option is selected in field *88, exit delay remains on
indefinitely until the last zone in zone list 8 is restored; once the last
zone is restored, exit delay is then 5 seconds.)
• 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 for each partition.
• Exit delay is the same as described for Type 01.
• Assign to all sensors or contacts on windows and infrequently used
exterior doors.
• 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 covering a sensitive area such as a stock room, drug
supply room, emergency exit door, etc.
• Can also be used with a sensor or contact for an area where immediate
notification of an entry is desired.
• Assign for use with sensor, device, or sounder tamper protection.
• Provides an instant alarm if faulted when armed in the Away, Stay,
Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.
• During the disarmed state, the system will provide a latched trouble
sounding from the keypad (and a central station report, if desired).

Description
• Usually assigned to a zone containing an emergency button.
• Sends a report to the central station but provides no keypad display or
sounding.
• 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 siren output is provided.)
• Provides a fire alarm on short circuit and a trouble condition on open
circuit. A fire alarm produces a pulsing siren output.
• This zone type is always active and cannot be bypassed.
• 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 gas detector.
• The siren output will pulse when this zone type is alarmed.
• Always active and cannot be bypassed.
• Usually assigned to a zone containing an emergency button.
• Sends a report to the central station (Contact ID event code “100”) and
provides an alarm sound at the keypad (no bell output is provided).

No Alarm Response

Description
• Provides a fire alarm when zone is shorted, but only after alarm is
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 user number to the central station when
arming/disarming.
• User number for button must be assigned.
• Arms the system in Away mode when the zone is activated.
• Pushbutton units send user number to the central station when
arming/disarming.
• User number for button must be assigned.
• Disarms the system when the zone is activated.
• User number for button must be assigned.
• Can be used on a zone when an output relay action is desired, but with
no accompanying alarm (e.g., lobby door access).
• Zone faults/restores are event logged.

* The system can still be armed when these zone types are in a faulted condition.

Description
• Usually assigned to all sensors or contacts on windows and infrequently
used exterior doors where siren sounding is NOT desired for alarms.
• 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.

Blockschloss

Types 90-93
Configurable

Description
• Used with special Blockschloss lock and key.
• System arms 5 seconds after the key is fully turned (arms MAXIMUM);
key can then be removed.
• When armed, the Blockschloss zone is shorted. An open circuit on this
zone causes trouble condition.
• If zones are “not ready,” the key will not turn fully and the system will
not arm.
• Contact ID report code is 409.
• Once the system is armed using Blockschloss, it can be disarmed only by
the key; wired keypads, RF keypads, and keyfobs cannot be used for
disarming.
• If any zone in the system is assigned as Blockschloss zone type, the
system will not arm in AWAY mode. The system can, however, be armed
in STAY or INSTANT modes from keypads and keyfobs even if the
Blockschloss zone is faulted.
• Allows for various custom responses.
• Options include response to entry/exit delays, response to opens/shorts,
types of alarm/trouble sounding, dial delay, and unique Contact ID
report codes.
• Use *83 Menu mode to program these configurable zone types.

NOTE: All of the zone types described are available for the wireless portion of the system, if used.

When using RF Receivers with 5800 series
transmitters, entry 2 should be 0 or 3.

All zones bypassed by this function will be
displayed after the bypass is initiated.
The House ID identifies receivers and wireless
keypads. If a 5827 or 5827BD wireless keypad or
5804BD/5804BDV transmitter is being used, a
House ID code must be entered, and the keypad
must be set to the same House ID. You can assign
RF house ID for each partition.

00 - 96 = 0 - 96 seconds
97 = 120 seconds
98 = 180 seconds
99 = 240 seconds

This field determines whether the external
sounder will shut off after time allotted, or
continue until manually turned off.

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 or the
zone will be auto-bypassed, depending on the
selection in field *88. Common area zones use
same delay as partition 1.
Upon entering, the system must be disarmed
before the time entered expires, otherwise it
sounds an alarm. Common area zones use same
delay as partition 1.
See *35 for explanation.

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

Warning sound consists of slow continuous beeps
until last 10 seconds, then it changes to fast beeps.

Power-Up In Previous State
0 = always power-up in a disarmed state
1 = assume the system status prior to power
down

Entry 2 for each partition selects whether arming
from remote RF devices causes siren ding and/or
activates trigger 2 output; also selects siren
ding/trigger activation duration (arm = 2 dings of
selected duration with 1 second off between; disarm
= 1 ding of selected duration). Ding occurs upon
reception of the wireless arming command.
NOTE: If using an option that activates trigger 2,
trigger 2 must be dedicated to only this function;
do not assign any other functions to trigger 2.

When the system powers up armed, an alarm will
occur 1 minute after arming if a zone is faulted at
that time.
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.

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 the following data fields. The actual
report code digits that you enter depend upon the particular installation, and should agree with the
Central Station office receiving the signals.
To disable a report code, enter “0” in the first entry.
3+1, 4+1 Standard or Robofon 8 Format: Enter a code in the first entry: 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,

Exit Error Report Code

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

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

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
With Contact ID format, the message will contain

About Zone Programming (∗
∗56 and ∗58 Menu Modes)
∗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 and Description
“RF” (Supervised RF): Sends periodic check-in
signals, as well as fault, restore, and low-battery
signals. The transmitter must stay within
receiver's range.
“UR” (Unsupervised RF): Sends all the signals
that the “RF” type does, but the control does not
supervise the check-in signals. The transmitter
may therefore be carried off-premises.
“BR” (Unsupervised Button RF): Sends only fault
signals. It does not send a low-battery signal until
it is activated. The transmitter may be carried offpremises.
“RM” (Supervised RF Motion Detector): Sends
periodic check-in signals, as well as fault and lowbattery signals. The panel ignores detector restore
signals but automatically restores the zone to
“ready” after a few seconds. Intended for facilities
with multiple motion detectors that may fault and
restore simultaneously. The transmitter must
remain within the receiver’s range.
RM NOTE: While the system is disarmed, faults
from input type RM devices might not be seen on the
keypad display because the automatic restore can
occur more quickly than the display is refreshed.
NOTES:
• For the built-in basic wired 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,
RM) to a wired zone (type AW), you must first
delete the transmitter’s serial number

About Output Device Programming (*79/*80 Menu Mode)
Output Devices:

The system supports up to 4 relays and/or Powerline Carrier devices (X-10
devices) plus 2 built-in trigger outputs in any combination. These 6 “outputs”
are assigned to system-wide output numbers (01-06 and 17-18). Use *79 Menu
Mode to assign output numbers and map them to device addresses.

Output Functions:

The system also provides up to 12 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.
Use *80 Menu Mode to define output functions.

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.
Output Identification
This output…
Relays:

is identified by…
the Relay Module’s device address and the relay position on that module (i.e. the

Installation and Setup Guide

*80 Menu Mode: Defining Output Functions
Use this mode to program output function definitions (up to 12 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-closeopen, 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

About Descriptor Programming (*82 Menu Mode)
The system lets you directly enter zone descriptors for each protection zone so when an alarm or
trouble occurs in a zone, an appropriate description for that zone's location can be displayed at the
keypad. Each description is composed of up to 16 characters. In addition, you can enter three partition
descriptors each composed of up to 16 characters.
NOTE: You can also enter zone descriptors when the zone is being defined in ✱56 Menu mode.
When defining descriptors:
• Pressing the [4] key moves cursor one space to the left.
• Pressing the [6] key accepts the entry and moves the cursor to the next position.
• 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.

Programming Installer and User Schedules
The system provides up to 8 schedules, which can be used to control 12 types of system events at predefined times. 4 schedules are intended for use by the end-user, and 4 are reserved for the installer. In
addition, some events are also reserved for the installer only (listed in the “Enter Event” prompt
paragraph below).
NOTES: • The master code can only access schedules 01-04 and events 00-08.
• System clock must be set before programming schedules.
• Programmed schedules do not take effect until the next scheduled “start” time. (e.g., if
programming a schedule time window for 8AM to 5PM, the schedule does not take effect
until 8AM after the schedule has been programmed.)

e.g., To make a schedule that happens everyday
you would select all days with a repeat count of
1. To make a schedule that runs for one week
then stops, select everyday with a repeat count of
0.
NOTE: Schedules run sequentially from Sunday
to Saturday and reset on Sunday at midnight. If
repeat count is 0, only those events scheduled
from the day the schedule is set to Sunday will
occur. Events scheduled after Sunday will be
ignored.
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).

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).

System Communication and Operation

Follow-Me Feature
This feature lets users enter up to three phone numbers (system-wide) that the system will call in the
event of an alarm in any partition at the protected premises, thus alerting the user to the alarm.
• When an alarm occurs, the system reports the alarm to the central station (and pagers, if
programmed), then, if programmed, dials the first follow-me phone number and proceeds as follows:
1. After dialing, the system waits a short time† then sends a series of eight tones or “beeps”
(regardless of whether the call is answered) followed by a pause of about four seconds, then the
tones are repeated. The cycle of tones and pauses continues for about one minute.
† system waits about one ring plus any programmed pauses; see “To enter a follow-me number” below
for programming pauses

If the call is not acknowledged by the user (by pressing the telephone’s [∗] key; see User
Response below), the control hangs up when the 1-minute tone cycle is complete, then dials
the second follow-me phone number and sends the tones as described above. If the second
number is not acknowledged by the user, the control dials the third number and sends the
tones.
3. If the third number is not acknowledged, the control redials the first number. This dialing
cycle is repeated once.
4. User Response:
a. When the call is answered, the user will hear the message tones (a series of eight tones or
“beeps”) followed by a pause of about four seconds, then the tones are repeated.
b. The user must press the [∗
∗] key on the telephone to acknowledge hearing the tones,
then wait for the control to disconnect the line before hanging up.
IMPORTANT: The [∗] key should be pressed during a pause between tone cycles.
Otherwise, the control may not “hear” or respond to the [∗] key if pressed while the tones
are being sent.
• If another alarm occurs in the same armed period, the Follow-Me dialing cycle is repeated only up
to the number of reports programmed in field *93 No. of Reports in Armed Period per Zone.
• If the follow-me number is for a pager, the message displayed on the pager is as follows: 104 P ZZZ
where “P” is the partition number, “ZZZ” is the 3-digit zone number of the zone in alarm.
From an ALPHA KEYPAD: User code + [#] + [6] [1]
The first follow-me phone number (if it exists) is displayed:
FM Phone No.
18009216704--_

To display follow-me phone number 2, press [2].
To display follow-me phone number 3, press [3].

To modify the displayed number, do the following:
1. Press [∗], which clears the number, then enter the desired phone number. To include a 2second pause in the number, press [#] at the point in the entry the pause is desired (it displays
as “–“). Pauses entered at the end of the number will allow dialing but will delay the message
tones by the amount of pause programmed.
2. Press [∗] to save the new number. The next follow-me phone number in sequential order (1-2-31 etc.) is displayed. Press [∗] to program that number, or press [1], [2], or [3] to select the
desired follow-me number to be programmed.

To exit this mode, press any key other than 1, 2, 3, or [∗
∗]. The keypad beeps three
times.
The system also automatically exits this mode if no keys are pressed within 30 seconds.

Setting/Adjusting the Real-Time Clock
The real-time clock is used to time-stamp events recorded in the event log and for scheduling mode. The
time display can be set for 12 (AM/PM) or 24-hour format, and can show day/month or month/day (field
*183, Time/Date Format). If the system is using the built-in crystal for the real-time clock (field *181,
50/60Hz AC Operation) synchronization, a plus/minus adjustment may be required to account for
crystal frequency variation. This adjustment is only needed if the frequency control of AC mains is not
accurately maintained by the local mains electrical power provider.
To set and adjust the clock: user code +[#] + [6] [3].

About Test Procedures
After the installation is complete, you should perform the following tests:
System Test:Checks that all zones have been installed properly.
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.
Sensor Sniffer Mode: Allows one-man walk test of entire 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 once per minute 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 from their prior transmission (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.

7-1

Installation and Setup Guide
Checking Zones Using One-Man Walk Test (Sniffer Mode)
Use this mode to test all zones (wired and wireless) that have been programmed. Make sure all
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 all partitions will display all zone numbers (in all partitions) programmed in
the system. Fault each zone in turn, causing each one to send a signal. As the system receives
a signal from each of the zones, the corresponding zone number disappears from the display.
2. After all zones 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 RF units (e.g., 5804) 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 multiple-loop transmitters (e.g.,.
5816 and 5817).
• Any transmitter not “enrolled” or any zone that is not faulted 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
allows 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 power when the system is in the normal operating mode.
1. Enter [Installer code] + [#] + 4 from the partition being tested. 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.
3. Do not conduct this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter.
a. Keypad beeps three times to indicate signal reception and displays the appropriate zone
number.
b. If the keypad does not beep, you should reorient or move the transmitter to another
location. Usually a few centimeters 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: [Installer code] + OFF.

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.
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, they may not activate or provide early
warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires. 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 32° to 40°C, the
detection performance can decrease.

9-1

Installation and Setup Guide
• 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.
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.

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 product(s) it sells may not be compromised or circumvented; that the
product(s) will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or
that the product(s) will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Customer understands that
a properly installed and maintained alarm system 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 THAT THE PRODUCT(S) 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,
