ECP Status Codes
When the communicator is configured for ECP mode, it sends status messages to the control
panels for battery, power, tamper, and network connectivity failures. Some of the control
panels, (e.g., VISTA-10P, VISTA-15P and VISTA-20P Series) display these on the keypad as
“LngRng Radio” followed by a 4-digit code (listed below). In addition, the Contact ID codes
(listed in Appendix B) for these conditions are sent to the central station by the
communicator.
The information in the following table is based on the VISTA-20 which has not been evaluated
with this communicator.
