Wire Routing for Power and Non-Power Limited
All wiring entry points are designated by the arrows. All circuits are
classified UL installation power limited except for the battery leads
which are not power limited.
A minimum ¼” (7mm) separation must be maintained at all points
between power limited and non-power limited wiring and connections.
NOTE: Wire entry for power limited wiring must be separated by a
different entry access from non-power limited wiring
.
Keypad Functions
Introduction
The PC1500RK remote keypad provides complete information and
control of the PC1550 control panel. The panel can be fully programmed
from the keypad. The 6 zone lights provide alarm and status indication
for the alarm circuits. Each zone can be programmed to be a burglary
zone or a fire zone.
Master Code
This code is used to arm and disarm the panel, to reset the bells after
an alarm, program up to 5 additional codes using [

][5], and to enter
other user functions using [

][6]. The panel default program allows the
user to change the Master Code. The panel can be programmed, by the
installer, so the user cannot change the Master Code. The default
Master Code is “1234”. See [13] 2nd System Option Code.
2nd Master Code
A second Master Code can be programmed. This code can be
changed by the installer only, and is useful where there are multiple
panels in a complex. The 2nd Master Code may be used as a “Master
Key”. The default 2nd Master Code is blank.
Installer’s Programming Code
The default Installer’s Programming Code is “1500”. Using this code
and [

][8], the installer can gain access to the system to enter panel
program information. This code can be changed by the installer.
Arming
Before arming the panel, close all protected doors and windows and stop
movement in areas covered by motion detectors. If the “Trouble” light is
on, check for the type of trouble ([
✱
✱
✱
✱
✱
][2]) and correct the fault condition.
If the “Bypass” light is on, insure that the zones bypassed are bypassed
intentionally, ([
✱
✱
✱
✱
✱
][1]). If the “Ready” light is not on, one or more zones are
open. The system can only be armed when the “Ready” light is ON. To
arm, enter a 4 digit access code. As each digit is entered, the keypad
sounder will beep. When the correct access code has been entered the
“Armed” light will come ON and the keypad will beep 6 times. If the
access code has been entered incorrectly, the keypad will sound one
long tone. Press the [#] key and enter the access code again.
Once the panel has been armed, exit through the designated entry/exit
door before the exit delay time expires. At the end of the allowed exit
time, all lights on the keypad will go out except the “Armed” light. The
Keypad Wiring
Up to three keypads may be connected in parallel. Do not connect
multiple keypads on the same keypad wire run. For Standby Loading
purposes, use a current draw of 35 mA per keypad. This represents the
panel in the disarmed state with two zones open.
Fire Zone Wiring
Any one of the 6 zones may be programmed as a Fire Loop. See
Programming Guide section [11].

Smoke detectors should be the latching type and
have N.O. alarm initiating contacts. Power wiring
from the AUX + / PGM terminals should be
supervised using an RM-1 relay after the last
smoke detector. The RM-1 N.O. contacts (closed
with power applied) should be wired in series with
the alarm initiating end-of-line resistor so that
should power to the detector(s) fail, a fire loop
trouble will be initiated.
Burglary Zone Wiring
Burglary zone definition, (eg. Delay, Instant, 24 Hr. etc.) is programmed
via the keypad. See the Programming Guide, section [11].
AC Power Wiring
Complete all wiring to the control panel before connecting AC power or
the battery. Do not plug the transformer into an outlet that is controlled
by a switch.
Battery Connection
If the battery is reverse connected, the 3 A PTC will open. The battery
charging voltage is factory set and normally needs no adjustment. If the
battery charging voltage is out of adjustment, contact your service
representative.
NOTE: The battery charging voltage must not be adjusted on UL-listed
systems.
If AC power is OFF and the battery voltage is approximately 9.5 V or
lower, the battery will be disconnected and the panel will power down.
To power up again, the AC will have to be re-established.
Telephone Line Wiring
NOTE: Ensure that plugs and jacks meet the dimension, tolerance and
metallic plating requirements of 47 C.F.R. Part 68, Subpart F.
WARNING
FCC restricts using this equipment on certain types of telephone lines.
Read FCC Compliance Statement at the end of this manual. Also, do not
use this equipment on a telephone line equipped with a “call holding”
feature, as the tone generated may interfere with the communicator
operations.
NOTE: Do not connect the alarm panel communicator to telephone lines
intended for use with facsimile (FAX) machines. These lines may
incorporate a voice filter which disconnects the line if other than FAX
signals are detected, resulting in incomplete transmissions.
