SIA Installations: The VISTA-10PSIA is a certified SIA-compliant control that meets SIA
specifications for False Alarm Reduction. The VISTA-10P is not certified as SIA compliant, but can be
programmed for False Alarm Reduction. To program for False Alarm Reduction, follow the SIA
Guidelines noted in the applicable programming fields.
Capabilities
Up to 22 zones plus eight keyfob zones (zones 49-56) for total of 30 zones:
-- Six basic hardwired zones (zone 1-6)
-- Supports up to 16 wireless transmitter zones (5800 series; zones 9-24)
-- Supports one configurable zone type
Up to 16 security codes, each with separate authority levels
Supports Downloading: Via an IBM compatible computer, Compass downloading software, and a
compatible HAYES or CIA modem specified by Ademco.
Functions
Single-button arming feature: Can use dedicated keys to arm the system AWAY or STAY
Up to two schedules (1 installer, 1 end-user), to control devices and/or auto-arm/disarm the system
One keypad macro, which can simplify a long command string (e.g., bypassing zones before arming)
Paging feature allows certain system conditions to be reported to one pager phone number; can use a
dedicated key on keypads to send a signal to the pager
Event Logging records up to 32 selected events in a history log; control and readout from the log is
done via Ademco Compass Downloader software or installer/master code at Keypad
Zone descriptors for all zones
(useful only when using Alpha keypads and/or the 4285/4286 Phone Module).
Optional bell supervision detects external sounder wiring short or open; causes a trouble condition,
keypad display, and sends a report to the central monitoring station, if enabled.
Optional RF jam detection for wireless systems detects a condition that may impede proper RF
reception (i.e., jamming or other RF interference); causes keypad display, and sends a report to the
central monitoring station (if trouble reporting is enabled).
Compatible Devices
Up to eight Addressable Keypads: 6150 Fixed-Word Keypad, 6160 Alpha Keypad, 6150V Fixed-
Word Display Voice Keypad, 6160V Alpha Display Voice Keypad, 6150RF Keypad/Transceiver
Supports 5881 series receiver and 5800 series transmitters
Up to four output relays (4204) plus two on-board triggers (does not support Powerline Carrier
Devices) -- Up to 12 output functions.
Ademco 4285/4286 Phone Module; provides access to the system via on premises or off-premises
phones for arming, disarming, etc., plus control of relay outputs.
Audio Alarm Verification (using AAV module, such as ADEMCO UVS); can be used in conjunction
with an output trigger to permit voice dialog between an operator at the central station and a
person at the premises.
Alarm output provides a 12VDC, 2 AMP output that can drive the compatible sounders; steady
output for burglary/panic, or temporal pulse (3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses. . .) for
fire. Uses current limiting circuitry for protection.
Auxiliary Power Output: 12VDC, 600 mA maximum (uses fuse for protection).
Backup Battery: Rechargeable (sealed lead-acid type) 12VDC, 4AH minimum.
Long Range Radio: Primary telephone number messages can be reported via ECP connection to
various Long Range Radios (check compatibility and availability of specific models)
AC Power Supply: Plug-in 120VAC transformer, ADEMCO 1321 (1321CN in Canada)
