tors and Fire. 

2.    Cut out the 2700

 resistor (color code: red/violet/red) associ-

ated with the selected zone(s).  See table below. 

3.    Install a 130

 resistor across the 2 terminals of each zone 

used (color code:  brown/orange/brown). 

4.    Wire positive (+) terminal of smoke detector to terminal 28.  

Wire negative (-) terminal of smoke detector to positive (+) 
terminal of the zone. 

 

 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Four-Wire Smoke Detectors.  

If installing 4-wire 

smokes, subtract smoke-detector alarm current from 
available standby current.  See COMPATIBLE UL-
LISTED DEVICES. 
Wire 4-wire smokes as shown in the following wiring dia-
gram.  Program each zone for Fire.  Also program zones 
for Pulse Burglary Output, and Disable Fire Reset in the 
applicable area(s) (System Options).  If they are of the 
self-resetting type, 4-wire smokes may be powered from 
Terminals 13 and 14 (AUX. PWR.) instead of Terminal 28 
and 29, thus freeing the Reset Relay for other uses. 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Split Reporting

   See Report Telco 3 

 

Start Exit Delay After Ringback 

When a closing report is successfully received, the central station will acknowledge by returning a kissoff signal.  When the kis-

soff is received by the communicator, a 2-second ringback tone will sound at the keypad.  Start Exit Delay After Ringback will cause 
the exit delay to start after the ringback sounds. 

If this option is chosen and no ringback sounds shortly after the control panel is armed, exit delay will not start and opening the 

exit/entry door will cause an instant alarm.  To manually start the exit delay, select the START EXIT TIME function, then press the 

J

 

or 

U

 button to execute. 

Note:  

(1) If this feature is selected, Exit/Entry Follower Zones will not arm until either a ringback sounds or the START EXIT 

TIME function is used.  (2) If communicator, telephone lines or central-station receiver is out of service, the system will be armed with-
out communication capability.
