Device Programming Menu Mode - Honeywell Lynx Plus Series Installation And Setup Manual

Powerline Carrier Devices (e.g.; X10 brand devices) are programmable switches that can be used to perform
many different functions, such as turning lights on and off, controlling sounders, or for status indications.
In this system, each device must be programmed to perform a function (ACTION), when to activate
(START), and when to deactivate (STOP). Each function is described below. Signals from the control panel
are sent via the K10145X10 transformer or the PL513 Powerline Interface Module through the premises AC
wiring to the Powerline Carrier Devices (which are plugged into AC outlets). Devices plugged into Powerline
Carrier Devices can then be made to perform various functions in response to commands entered at the
keypads in the security system. The control supports a total of 8 output devices. This mode is also used to
program Remote Services Multi-mode (e-mail) event triggers.

Programming Options Defined
The following will help you understand the programming of output devices when using
ACTION – The "ACTION" programming determines how the device will respond when it is activated by the
"START" programming. There are four different choices of actions:
•
ACTIVATE for 2 SECONDS and then reset.
•
ACTIVATE and REMAIN ACTIVATED until stopped by some other event.
•
PULSE ON and OFF until stopped by some other event.
•
NOT USED when the device is not used.
START - The "START" programming determines when and under what conditions the device will be
activated. The following "START" options are available:
Start by Event - An event is the condition (alarm, fault, trouble) that must occur to a zone or group of zones
(zone list) in order to activate the device. These conditions apply only when a zone list is used. The different
choices for "EVENT" are listed below and in the "Programming Powerline Carrier Devices" paragraph that
follows.
•
ALARM - Device activates upon any alarm in an assigned zone in the zone list.
•
FAULT - Device activates upon any opening or short in an assigned zone in the zone list.
•
TROUBLE - Device activates upon any trouble condition in an assigned zone in the zone list.
•
NOT USED - Device action is not dependent upon one of the above events.
A zone list is a group of zones to which the "EVENT" applies in order to activate a particular device. There
are a total of 3 output device-related zone lists that can be programmed in ✻81 menu mode. When the
selected EVENT (alarm, fault or trouble) occurs in any zone in the selected "Start" ZONE LIST (1, 2, or 3),
activation of the selected device will START.
Start by Zone Type or System Operation
If a system operation, such as "DISARMING" or "ANY FIRE ALARM," is to activate the device, the
appropriate choice would also be entered under the "ZONE TYPE" option. "ZONE TYPE" is used
independently of the "EVENT/ZONE LIST" combination.
If a "ZONE TYPE" is chosen, any zone of that response type going into alarm, trouble, or fault will cause the
device to activate as selected in "ACTION." If the same "ZONE TYPE" is also chosen for the STOP
programming, any zone of that type that restores will de-activate the device.
If a "SYSTEM OPERATION" is chosen (e.g., End of Exit Time), that operation will cause the device to
activate as selected in "ACTION". The different choices for "ZONE TYPE" and "SYSTEM OPERATION" are
listed in the "Start zone type" paragraphs later in this section, and in the Programming Form.
STOP - The "STOP" programming determines when and under what conditions the device will be deacti-
vated. The following options are available:
Upon Restore of a Zone List - Restore Zone List: If a "ZONE LIST" is used as the "Stop" event, the device
will de-activate when all the zones in that list restore from a previous fault, trouble, or alarm condition.
This will occur regardless of what is programmed to "START" the device; therefore, a "RESTORE ZONE
LIST" would normally only be used when a "ZONE LIST" is used to start the device.
