∗56 ZONE PROGRAMMING MENU MODE
(press *56 while in Program mode) The Zone Programming Worksheet is on page 28.
Zones and Partitions
Each protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming mode or
✱
58 Expert
Programming Mode. Using this mode, enter the zone number to be programmed and make appropriate entries at the
prompts. Finally, Confirm the serial number of wireless transmitter zones.
The VISTA-20PMT system can control two independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by independent
users, if desired, by simply assigning zones to one or the other partition during zone programming. The VISTA-20PMT, by
default, automatically distributes users between the two partitions. The master user can change the user number distributions.
Zones can also be assigned to a common partition, which is an area shared by users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a
building). This allows either partition to arm, while leaving the common partition disarmed for access into the other partition.
The following describes the functioning of the VISTA-20PMT common partition:
• The common zone sounds and reports alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only one partition is armed, the
system ignores faults on the common zone.
• Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other partition will not be able to arm
unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected.
• Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone keypads, and will also appear on another partition’s keypad
when that partition is armed.
• Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.
For each of the following prompts, make the desired entry, followed by the [∗] key to accept the entry.
SET TO CONFIRM?
0 = no (default)
1 = yes (See XMIT TO CONFIRM prompt later in this section.)
We recommend that you confirm the programming of every
transmitter.
This display appears upon entry into this mode.
If 1 (Yes) is entered, you will be prompted to confirm each
transmitter after entering the serial and loop numbers (at the
“XMIT TO CONFIRM” prompt later).
ENTER ZN NUM.
VISTA-20PMT:
wired 01-08 (and 09-48†)
wireless 09-48; RF button zones 49-64
VISTA-15PMT:
wired 01-06 (and 07-22†)
wireless 09-34; RF button zones 49-56
Both Controls:
91 = addr. device report enable
92 = duress report enable
95, 96, 99 =emerg. zones
To quit, enter 00 to quit (returns to data field mode).
Enter the zone number that you wish to program.
Enter a report code for zone 91 to enable addressable device
reporting.
Enter a report code for zone 92 to enable duress reporting.
95, 96, 99 are emergency (panic) key zones.
† if zone expanders are used.
SUMMARY SCREEN:
System displays a summary of the entered zone’s current
programming. Press [∗] to continue.
“IN: L” appears for wireless zones and indicates input type and
loop.
“IN: AD” appears for hardwire expansion zones (AW) and
indicates the module’s address (AD), which is based on the zone
number.
“HW: RT” appears for hardwire zones and indicates configuration
(EOL, NO, NC, zone doubling, double-balanced) and response
time selection.
ZONE TYPE
Each zone must be assigned to a zone type, which defines the way
in which the system responds to faults in that zone. Enter the Zone
Type code from the list below:
Note: If 00 is entered, Delete Zone ? will be displayed.
00 = Not used 07 = 24-Hr Audible 20 = Arm–STAY*
01 = Entry/exit #1 08 = 24-Hr Aux 21 = Arm–AWAY*
02 = Entry/exit #2 09 = Fire 22 = Disarm*
03 = Perimeter 10 = Interior w/Delay
23 = No Alarm Resp
04 = Interior Follower 12 = Monitor Zone 24 = Silent Burglary
05 = Trouble Day/Alarm Night 14 = Carbon Monoxide 77 = Keyswitch
06 = 24-Hr Silent 15 = Medical** 81 = AAV Monitor
16 = Fire w/Verify Zone
*5800 button-type transmitters only 90-91 = Configurable
**Zone type 15 is similar to zone type 08 (keypad alarm sounding, no bell
output), except that Contact ID code 100 is sent to the central station.
UL: Zone type 15 may not be used in UL installations.
PARTITION
1, 2, or 3-common (VISTA-20PMT)
Enter the Partition number for this zone.
REPORT CODE
1-9, 10 for 0, 11 for B, 12 for C, 13 for D, 14 for E, 15 for F
For Contact ID®, enter any non-zero entry as the first digit to enable
reporting for this zone.
To disable the report code for this zone, enter 00.
Enter the report code for this zone, which consists of 2 hexadecimal
digits, each in turn consisting of 2 numerical digits. For example, for a
report code of “10,” enter
01
and
00
HARDWIRE TYPE
Appears only for zones 02-08. Zone 1 is automatically set for EOL
operation. Enter the desired hardwire type:
0 = EOL 3 = zone doubling (ZD)†
1 = NC 4 = double-balanced (DB)†
2 = NO († VISTA-20PMT)
RESPONSE TIME
For hardwired zones 01-08. Enter the desired response time for this
zone:
0 = 10mSec 2 = 700mSec
1 = 350mSec 3 = 1.2 secs (see field ∗174)
NOTE: If zone doubling is being used, the response time selected for
zones 02-08 automatically applies to each zone’s associated doubled
zone.
INPUT TYPE
Skipped for zones 2-8, and for zones 10-16 if zone-doubling enabled.
Enter the input type:
2 = AW (Aux wired zone) 4 = UR (unsupervised RF)
3 = RF (supervised RF) 5 = BR (unsupervised button type)
NOTE: To change the input type of a previously programmed wireless
device to a wired zone, you must first delete the transmitter’s serial
number.
All of the RF transmitters have one or more unique factory-assigned
input (loop) ID codes. Each of the inputs requires its own programming
zone
(e.g., a 5804's four inputs require four programming zones).
RF Transmitters can be enrolled as one of the following types:
Type Description
RF
(Supervised RF)
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault,
restore, and low-battery signals. The trans. must
stay within receiver's range.
UR
(Unsupervised RF)
Sends all the signals that the “RF” type does, but
the control does not supervise the check-in
signals. The transmitter may therefore be carried
off-premises.
BR
(Unsupervised
Button RF)
Sends only fault signals. It will not send a low-
battery signal until it is activated. The transmitter
may be carried off-premises.
NOTE: For the built-in hardwired zones, the Input Device type is
automatically displayed as HW and cannot be edited.
