Program Modes
There are two programming modes for the VISTA-40.
These are the Data Field Program Mode and the #93
Menu Mode. The Data Field Program Mode is where
many system options are programmed. The #93 Menu
Mode is an interactive mode that requires a 2-line
alpha keypad (6139/6160).
The factory-loaded defaults (✳97) enable
keypad addresses 00-03 only. A keypad set to
one of these addresses must be used to
program the system initially.
Local keypad programming can be disabled
through Compass downloading software. If
this is done, Program mode can only be
accessed via the downloading software.
Entering and Exiting Programming Mode
Enter Programming mode using either method a or b:
a. Press both the [✳] and [#] keys at the same time
within 30 seconds after power is applied to the
control.
b. Enter the Installer Code + [8] + [0] + [0] keys.
The factory installer code can be changed once in
the Program mode (field ✳00).
NOTE: The default for the Installer Code is 4140.
Exit the Programming mode by either method a or b:
a. Press [✳] + [9] + [8]. Exiting by this method
prevents the installer code from being used to re-
enter Programming mode. Only method “a” can be
used to re-enter Programming mode.
b. Press [✳] + [9] + [9]. Exiting by this method
permits the installer code to be being used to re-
enter Programming mode.
Data Field Programming Mode
In the Data Field Program Mode you may access any
field simply by entering either [✳] or [#] + the field
number:
• To write or change information in a field press [✳]
+ the field number (✳03).
• To read the information in a field press [#] + the
field number (#03).
When the entries for a field are completed, the keypad
beeps three times and advances to the next field.
