4. Maintenance Features

The ESPRIT 728 is an 8-zone controller/communicator designed for security systems, offering a range of programming and connection options. It supports both standard and advanced technology zoning, with features for alarm reporting, user management, and system diagnostics.

Function Description:

The ESPRIT 728 serves as the central control unit for a security system, managing up to 8 zones. It handles alarm detection, communication with central monitoring stations, and user interaction through keypads. The device supports various programming methods, including Hexa, Streamlined (Section), and 3-Digit Decimal Value programming, allowing for extensive customization of its features. Key access programming provides quick configuration of common settings.

Important Technical Specifications:

• Zones: 8 zones, expandable with advanced technology zoning.
• Power: Requires 16.5VAC 40VA transformer.
• Battery: Rechargeable 12VDC 7AH battery required (UL: K12 model T16 V40, ULC: Frost model FTC 1637).
• Bell Output: UL/ULC 650mA max. Shuts down if current exceeds 3A.
• Auxiliary Power: 400mA max (UL/ULC 250mA max for 24 hr. standby). Shuts down if current exceeds 1A.
• Keypads: Supports a maximum of 5 keypads per system (PS1 considered as a keypad).
• Resistors: Uses 1KΩ (green) resistors for normal zones and 500Ω (brown) resistors for double zones (ATZ). 510Ω is acceptable if 500Ω is unavailable.
• Communication Formats: Supports ADEMCO slow, SILENT KNIGHT fast, SESCOA, RADIONICS (40bps with 1400Hz/2300Hz handshake, with/without PARITY), ADEMCO express, and ADEMCO Contact ID (selected/all codes). DTMF for personal dialing is also supported.
• PGM Outputs: Up to 2 PGM outputs (PGM1 and PGM2) with configurable types (OR, AND, EQUAL, Timed N.O., Timed N.C.). PGM1 has a maximum current of 50mA for fire alarm zone connections.
• Software Version: 1.0.

Usage Features:

• Programming:
  • Hexa Programming: Used for "Access to Upload/Download" and "Installer Code" (addresses 000-007). Digits 0-F are valid.
  • Streamlined (Section) Programming: Used for sections 00-34, including telephone and account numbers, arming/disarming codes, alarm codes, restore codes, trouble codes, and special codes/formats/PGM.
  • 3-Digit Decimal Value Programming: Used for addresses 244-255 for settings like auto test report intervals, exit/entry delays, bell cut-off time, slow zone speed, AC report delay, "No Movement" report time, PGM timer settings, and installer lock. Values are between 000 and 255.
  • Feature Select (Light ON/OFF) Programming: Configures various system features by setting the ON/OFF status of keypad lights (keys) for addresses 200-242. This includes system arming modes, TLM table settings, reporting table settings, tamper/wire fault definitions, zone definitions (fast, silent, 24 Hr./Fire, instant, follow, delay 2, bypass enabled), and zone swap.
  • Key Access Programming: Provides quick access to common settings like "Auto arming" time, "Panel time" and clearing "trouble 8", test report, calling Espload, answering Espload, canceling communication attempts, resetting to default panel settings, and installer test mode.
• Arming/Disarming: Supports master code arming/disarming. User codes (01-16) can be programmed with different priorities.
• Reporting: Extensive reporting codes for arming, disarming, alarms (zones 1-24), restores (zones 1-24), troubles, and trouble restores. Supports Contact ID format, where programming of addresses 088-193 may not be necessary if "all codes" Contact ID is selected.
• Zone Types: Configurable zone types including fast, silent, 24 Hr./Fire, instant, follow, and delay 2. Zone 3 can be defined as a fire zone.
• Partitioning: Supports partitioned systems, with zones 7-12 reporting with account "B" and assigned to system "B". Zone swap feature is recommended for partitioned systems.
• Advanced Technology Zoning: Supports connections with 1 or 2 zone resistors, tamper recognition, and wire fault recognition (short circuit).
• Double Fire Loop: Specific wiring diagrams for double fire loops, with and without zone 6 enabled.
• Ground Start Circuit: Provides a ground start circuit for communication.

Maintenance Features:

• Bench Test: Includes a series of steps to verify system functionality, including zone and keypad connections, sounder, AC/battery, and master code arming/disarming.
• Trouble Display: Keypad trouble display indicates various issues such as no battery/low voltage, AC failure, bell disconnect, maximum bell/auxiliary current, communicator report failure, timer loss, tamper/zone wiring failure, telephone line failure, and fire loop trouble.
• Trouble Clearing: Timer loss trouble can be cleared via Key Access Programming [MEM]. Other troubles can be cleared by pressing [CLEAR].
• TLM (Telephone Line Monitor): Can be disabled, generate trouble only, generate an alarm if armed, or have silent alarm become audible.
• Test Report: Can be configured to send test reports at specified intervals.
• Installer Test Mode: Provides a confirmation beep (intermittent) when active, and a rejection beep (long) when off. The bell squawks during walk testing to indicate opened, functional zones.
• Smoke Detector Reset: Pressing [TRBL] + [11] provides a 4-second pulse to reset detectors after an alarm. Requires a 4-wire latching smoke detector (UL Falcon model 5454, ULC BRK 2412) and a MR3-UL power supervision relay.
• Installer Lock: Address 255 allows locking (147) or unlocking (000) installer access.
