Overview

The 5869 Holdup Switch/Transmitter is a finger-operated RF transmitting device designed for inconspicuous operation, typically mounted under a counter or within a money drawer. When activated, it emits an RF signal to a receiver, prompting the security system control panel to send a burglary alarm to the central station. This device is specifically designed to integrate with an enrolled Holdup Switch/Transmitter system.

A key operational feature of the 5869 is its reset mechanism. Once activated, the device can only be reset using a dedicated reset key, ensuring that accidental or unauthorized deactivation is prevented. This design choice emphasizes security and control over the device's operational state.

For enhanced security, the 5869 incorporates tamper switches. These switches are designed to activate an alert if the cover is removed or if the unit is forcibly detached from its installation location. This feature provides an additional layer of protection against tampering or unauthorized removal, ensuring the integrity of the security system. The device is designed to be tamper-resistant on both its front and back, further bolstering its security features.

Installation of the 5869 is designed to be straightforward and user-friendly. The device is easily mounted, and its quick enrollment process simplifies integration into an existing security system. The absence of wires to run contributes to a cleaner and more flexible installation, making it suitable for various environments without the need for complex wiring infrastructure. The device also includes a battery, making it ready for operation upon installation.

Before permanent mounting, it is recommended to perform Go/No Go tests to verify adequate transmitter signal strength at the desired mounting location. This ensures optimal performance and reliable communication with the security system. The installation process involves removing the cover, using the case as a drill template, drilling pilot holes, and then securing the case to the counter or money drawer. After installing the battery, the cover is re-secured, and the assembled case is then permanently attached using mounting screws.

For programming, the 5869 Holdup Switch/Transmitter should be configured as a 24-hour silent zone type within the security system control panel. During programming, it should be treated as an "RF" (supervised RF) type, and it functions as a single closed input loop zone (loop 1).

Battery installation and replacement are also designed for ease of use. The process involves removing the screws securing the cover, inserting the battery into the holder while observing correct polarity, and then re-installing the screws to secure the cover and/or assembly. Care should be taken not to bend the antenna during battery installation. The device is fully compatible with all Vista Control Panels, ensuring broad applicability within existing security infrastructures.
