Section 4 - Basic Hardwired Zones
4–5
Programming Hardwired Zones
Each zone must be programmed into the system using the
∗
56 Zone Programming mode, or
∗
58 Expert Programming Mode, which assigns characteristics that define the way the system
responds to faults on that zone. Refer to Section 15: Zone Response Type Definitions and
Section 17: Zone Programming for specific instructions on programming hardwired zones.
Checkout Procedure for Hardwired Zones
After installation and programming of all hardwired devices is completed, the security
system should be checked, as follows.
1.
Make certain that all devices and sensors connected to the hardwired zones are not in a
faulted state. Doors and windows with contacts should be closed, PIRs should be covered
(use a cloth to mask them temporarily if necessary).
2.
Plug in the AC transformer if you have not already done so.
3.
With all hardwired zones intact, the alpha keypad connected to the system should display:
✱✱✱✱
D I S A R M E D
✱✱✱✱
R E A D Y T O A R M
If the following is displayed,
D I S A R M E D P r e s s
✱
t o s h o w f a u l t s
press [
✱
] to display the faulted zone(s). Restore any faulted zone(s) as necessary (also
make sure that you have connected a 2000 ohm EOL resistor across the terminals of
unused zones).
When the DISARMED...READY TO ARM message is displayed, you can proceed to the
next step.
4.
Fault and then restore every contact or sensor on each zone individually to ensure that it
is being monitored by the system. Each time a zone is faulted, the keypad should display
the number of the faulted zone. When each zone is restored, the “READY TO ARM”
message should appear again.
Observe the keypad as each zone is faulted and restored.
When the proper displays appear on the keypad(s), the hardwired zones in the system are
functioning properly.
5.
Unplug the AC transformer.
