• For automac entry. Tap Shi, then tap Learn to place
the Control Panel into learning mode. Then trigger the RF
sensor. The Control Panel will beep four (4) mes and learn
the sensor’s serial number. If the sensor being learned is
already in memory, the Control Panel will display a sensor
learning failure screen when the programming changes are
being saved.
For certain sensors with more than two loops, the tamper switch
must be used to send a signal to the Control Panel during sensor
learning. The r st press of the tamper switch will learn the sensor
into the panel as Loop #1. The second press of the tamper switch
will learn the sensor into the panel as Loop #2, and the third press
of the tamper switch will learn the sensor into the panel as Loop
#3. Pa use 15 seconds between each press of the tamper switch.
The programmed loop number of the sensor in the Control Panel
may need changing to suit the operaon of the device. For details,
see the Installaon Instrucons included with the sensor.
Q: Select RF Sensor # Equipment Age (0 to 1)
DEFAULT: (0) New
The Control Panel can be used with new or exisng RF sensors.
• If this RF sensor is new for the installaon, leave the default
seng of (0) New.
• If this RF sensor is already installed, select (1) Exisng.
NOTE: If the RF sensor has more than one loop and is being
programmed into mulple sensor numbers to support the loops,
set only one loop as “new” and the other loops as “exisng”. This
will prevent incorrect inventory of the installed sensors.
Q: Select RF Sensor # Loop Number (1 to 3)
DEFAULT: Varies with sensor model selected
The 2GIG Door/Window Contact sensors have two (2) inputs: an
internal magnec contact and an external Normally Closed (N/C)
hardwired input. Either or both sensor inputs can be used.
TIP: Some sensors are capable of three (3) loop inputs.
NOTE: When using both the internal magnec contact and the
external input, the magnet contact AND the external contact must
be assigned a dierent RF sensor number. Both sensor numbers
will share the same sensor serial number.
• When programming the sensor to use the built-in magnec
contact, set the loop number to (2) 2.
• When programming the sensor to use its hardwired input,
set the loop number as (1) 1.
• When programming a three (3)-loop sensor to use an
addional input, set the loop number as (3) 3.
• When entering the sensor number for the sensor’s loop 2
or 3, tap Paste to recall the last programmed sensor’s serial
number. (The sensor number will be lled in automacally
if Learn is used).
Q: Select RF Sensor # Dialer Delay (0 to 1)
DEFAULT: (1) Enabled
If this feature is enabled, the delay me must be set to a minimum
of 30 seconds for ANSI/SIA compliance. To set the delay me, see
“Q35: Abort Window Dialer Delay (0-2)” on page 52.
• RF sensors can trigger the digital communicator
immediately or aer a delay. The default seng (1) Enabled
causes delayed dialing for this RF sensor number.
• For immediate dialing for this RF sensor number, select (0)
Disabled.
NOTE: This seng for CO and Smoke Alarms is automacally set
to (0) Disabled, and this sub-queson is skipped for these sensor
types.
Q: Select RF Sensor # Equipment Type
DEFAULT: Varies by RF Sensor Type
NOTE: Some sensor types (zones) will require you to specify an
equipment type selecon, which aects the sensor’s extended
reporng code.
Simply enter the appropriate equipment type code (see table below)
or tap the ← or → arrows to select the appropriate equipment type.
The table below shows the Equipment Types available for each Sensor
Type (Zone):
Q: Select RF Sensor # Equipment Code
DEFAULT: (0000) Other
Select the four (4)-digit equipment code that corresponds to the
appropriate sensor model. See “Equipment Codes” on page 37.
• When programming eSensors (Wireless & Keyfobs), the
equipment code must match the sensor being installed.
Q: Select RF Sensor # Other Equipment Code
NOTES:
• This sub-queson is only displayed if (0000) Other is selected as
the RF Sensor # Equipment Code.
Enter the equipment code number directly on the keypad for the RF
sensor. Enter “0” if the new equipment code is unknown.
Q: Enter RF Sensor # Serial Number (7 Digits)
DEFAULT: 0000000
RF sensor serial numbers can be manually entered or automacally
transmied from the sensor to the Control Panel.
• For manual entry. Enter the sensor number that was logged
for the sensor being programmed. Tap Shi to access
alphabec characters.
