Installing the 5800TM Module
Installation of this module is necessary only if you are using one or more
5827BD Wireless Bi-directional keypads or a 5804BD transmitter.
Note: The 5827BD and 5804BD will only receive signals for partition 1.
Mounting the 5800TM Module
The 5800TM must be located next to the RF receiver (between one and two
feet from the receiverÕs antennas). The 5800TM must not be installed within
the control cabinet. Mount the unit using its accompanying mounting
bracket.
5800TM Wiring Connections
Connect the 5800TM to the control panelÕs keypad connection terminals,
using the supplied connector with flying leads, as follows:
Wire Terminal On Control
BLACK (Ground): Terminal 4
RED (+12VDC) Terminal 5
GREEN (Data to Control) Terminal 6
YELLOW (Data from Control) Terminal 7
BLUE: Not Used
Do not cut any of the jumpers on the 5800TM when using it with the FA162C.
For additional information, refer to the 5800TMÕs instructions.
5800 Series Transmitters
General
5800 series transmitters have built-in serial numbers that must be "enrolled"
into the system using the
56 or
83 interactive mode, or input to the control
via the downloader. 5800 series transmitters (except 5827 described
separately) do not have DIP switches.
Each transmitter's zone number is programmed into the system in
56 mode.
Some transmitters, such as the 5816 and 5817, can support more than one
"zone" (referred to as loops or inputs). On the 5816 for example, the wire
connection terminal block is loop 1, the reed contact is loop 2. Each loop must
be assigned a different zone number.
U
L
The 5816 and 5817 transmitters do not have EOL supervision of their loop
wiring. Therefore, for UL Household Burglary installations, the loop wiring
may not exceed 3 feet.
For button transmitters (RF "keys"), such as the 5804, 5803 and 5801, you
must assign a unique zone number to each individual button used on the
transmitter. Each button on the transmitter also has a pre-designated loop
or input number, which is automatically displayed.
Programming an RF House ID (01Ð31) in field
24 is necessary only if
using 5827, 5827BD wireless keypads or 5804BD transmitters. An RF
House ID is not necessary for other 5800 series transmitters and the entry
should be left at Ò00Ó (default) in those cases.
The 5827 reports low battery status as zone "00."
Transmitter Supervision
Except for some transmitters that may be carried off-premises (5802,
5802CP, 5804, 5804BD, 5803, and 5827, and 5827BD), each transmitter is
supervised by a check-in signal that is sent to the receiver at 70Ð90 minute
intervals. If at least one check-in is not received from each supervised
transmitter within a 12-hour period, the "missing" transmitter number(s) and
"CHECK" will be displayed.
The supervision for a particular transmitter in the system that may also be
carried off the premises (5801, 5802MN ) may be turned off by enrolling it as a
"UR" (unsupervised RF) type, as described later.
5800 series transmitters have built-in tamper protection and will annunciate
as a ÒCHECKÓ condition if covers are removed.
