Programming Steps
IMPORTANT:
The programming scheme is
different than other Ademco
controls and from previous
versions of the VISTA-40. Be
sure to review these steps
before attempting to program
this system.
1 . Set the keypads to the appropriate addresses.
2 . Set factory defaults by pressing *97.
This will automatically enable keypad addresses 00-03, so be sure at least
one keypad is set to one of these addresses.
3 . Program system-wide (global) data fields
Using the programming form as a guide, enter program mode and program
all system wide programming fields, including phone numbers, as well as
any other programming fields required to customize the system to the
needs of the installation. These options affect the entire system,
regardless of partitions. They include control options, downloader and
dialer options, RF options, event logging options, etc. Refer to the
PROGRAMMING DATA FIELDS section for a listing of the program fields
arranged by function.
Note that field 2*00 (number of partitions) & field 1*32 (RF
expander type) must be programmed before continuing.
4 . Program partition-specific fields
When the system-wide fields have been programmed, program all
partition-specific programming fields by first pressing [*][9][1] to select a
partition 1-2 (while still in data field program mode). Then enter the first
partition-specific field number *09. The next partition-specific field will
automatically be displayed when you are finished entering the value for
field *09. Partition-specific fields can have different values for each
partition. To program the fields for the next partition, press *91, enter the
desired partition number, then enter field *09. Refer to the
PROGRAMMING PARTITION SPECIFIC FIELDS section for detailed
instructions.
5 . Use #93 Menu Mode for device programming
Refer to the DEVICE PROGRAMMING section to assign keypad ID
numbers and default partitions for each keypad, and to selectively
suppress certain keypad sounding. Use this mode to assign RF receivers
(4281, 5881), output devices (4204 relay module), 4285 phone module
and the VIM voice interface module as well.
6 . Use #93 Menu Mode for zone programming
Refer to the ZONE PROGRAMMING section to program zone response
types, assign right loop zones and wireless zones, and assign zones to
partitions and program dialer reports.
7 . Use #93 Menu Mode for programming alpha descriptors
Refer to the ALPHA PROGRAMMING section to enter zone and partition
descriptors and a custom installer's message.
8 . Use #93 Menu Mode for programming relays, relay voice
descriptors and custom word voice substitutes.
9 . Set Communication Defaults
Refer to the COMMUNICATION PROGRAMMING section for further
instructions if one of the four communication default programming sets is
to be used.
1 0 . Exit Programming Mode
Exit programming mode by pressing either *98 or *99. A second entry of
*99 is required if the exit is being done from fields 1*00 and above.
To prevent re-access to Programming mode using the Installer's code, use
*98. The only way to re-access Programming mode is by depressing both
the [*] and [#] keys at the same time within 30 seconds of power up.
Exiting by using *99 always allows reentry into Programming mode using
the Installer's code. Either way of exiting will allow access via downloading.
IMPORTANT: If local programming lockout is set via downloading,
programming mode cannot be entered at the keypad.
