INSTALLER PROGRAMMING
The keypad
The Orbit-6 can support up to 4 keypads, with
a choice of 3 styles, 1 LCD type and two LED
types from which virtually all features may be
accessed. In addition to the functions it
provides for the user, each of the keypads can
be used by an installer to program the system
parameters.
An attempt to enter an incorrect series of
keystrokes will result with 3 error beeps.
All program location values (data) are
displayed by zone indicators on the LED
keypad in binary format.
Restoring Factory Defaults to the ORBIT-6
1. Your ORBIT-6 and at least one LED Keypad should already be wired together
and/or physically installed
2. Remove all power from the Printed Circuit
3. Place the ORBIT-6’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper over both corresponding pins. (See
Figures 1A and 1B on page 32 and 33 ).
4. Reapply power (AC and/or Standby Battery) to the PC Board.
5. After a short beep is heard, remove the J1 jumper. The ORBIT-6’s default settings
are now restored.
6. Check that the POWER LED is flashing. Depending on the state of the system, the
READY LED and the Zone LEDs may or may not be lit.
Introduction to Programming
First, check that the panel’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper is NOT covering both pins on the
PC Board.
The ORBIT-6 stores information in 86 programming locations.
The data stored in any location is represented by numbers and/or letters. Some
locations require just one digit, while most require two. Others (e.g. those used to
store phone numbers and account numbers) may require several more digits.
It is not necessary to enter data into all 86 categories. Many locations have been
factory-programmed with default parameters.
Note that power can be removed from the ORBIT-6, as its memory does not require a
source of power to retain its information.
