Remote Programming Information
www.PDF-Zoo.com
The VISTA–10SE can be remotely programmed from an IBM com patible
Personal Computer (PC), a HAYES Modem, and either Ademco's V-Link ®
downloading software (Rev. 4 or higher), or Ademco's Compass Windows
downloading software.
Programming the control from a remote location is protected against
compromise by someone attempting to defeat the system, using multi-levels of
security protection:
1. Security Code Handshake: An 8-digit download ID code must be
matched between the control and the downloader.
2. Site-Initiated Remote Programming: Telco Hand-off feature allows the
technician at the site to call the downloading facility from the control panel
phone line, initiate a site download (Installer or Master Code + # + 1), and
the control will immediately be on-line with the modem at the downloading
facility. Also, if a local computer has a modem, the telephone line terminals
of the control can be connected to the modem, and a direct download
connection can be established with the new downloader program.
3. Station-Initiated Remote Programming: The operator calls the site
from your office to initiate the download call. The control hangs up and then
calls back the PC via the pre-programmed telephone number. The unit can
then be uploaded, downloaded, or controlled from your office.
The control can also be set for no callback by the downloader.
4. Data Encryption: Data passed between the PC and the control is en-
crypted for security so that it is very difficult for a foreign device tapped
into the phone line to take over communication and substitute system
compromising information.

Downloading is not permissible for UL installations unless an installer is
present at the installation site.
At the premises:
• VISTA–10SE and keypad.
At the installer's office/home:
• An IBM PC compatible computer.
• Either a HAYES brand SMARTMODEM 1200 [Level 1.2 or higher external or

The downloading system can perform many functions when in communication
with the control unit. Besides uploading and downloading, the status of the sys-
tem can be observed and various commands can be initiated, as follows:
• Arm the System in the Away Mode; Disarm the System.
• Bypass a Zone.
• Shut Down Communication (dialer) Functions (non-payment of monitoring
fees in an owned system).
