VISTA-128B Installation and Setup Guide

Wiring the Long Range Radio

Connect the data in/out terminals and voltage input terminals of the radio to the control's
keypad connection points, terminals 6, 7, 8, and 9, as shown below.

Programming for the Long Range Radio

The control's subscriber ID can be passed to the LRR and incorporated into the transmitted
data; or the LRR can transmit the subscriber ID programmed in its own EEPROM.
The programming options for the LRR are as follows:
• To send the reports only via the LRR, bypassing the control's dialer (field ∗56).
•
To stop transmissions via the LRR if communication via the control's dialer to the central
station was successful (field ∗57).
• Selecting categories of events for each subscriber ID. Field ∗58 is for the primary
subscriber's ID; field ∗59 for the secondary subscriber's ID. The reporting categories are:
Alarms, Troubles, Bypasses, Openings/Closings, System Events, and Tests. The control
can be programmed to transmit these reports by partition.

Trouble Messages

The following messages will be displayed on the 6139 (alpha keypad) when a problem exists
the Long Range Radio:
1. "LRR Battery": The battery connected to the radio is low.
2. "PLL out of Lock": The radio has an internal fault and cannot transmit any messages.
3. "Early Power Detect": RF power is detected without a valid transmission.
4. "Power Unattained": Full RF power was never attained.
5. "Frwd. Power Loss": RF power was not sustained throughout the transmission.
6. "Antenna Fault": A problem with the antenna has been detected.
7. "LRR CRC is bad": The radio's EEPROM is corrupt (the internal CRC is bad).
Items 2 and 3 require factory service.
Items 4 and 5 could be the result of a bad or low battery.
Item 6 check the antenna, connection and cable otherwise, this requires factory service.
NOTE: All these messages will be displayed in conjunction with the "CHECK 8xx" message
which indicates a trouble on the address to which the LRR unit is programmed in the control.
All of the above events except Antenna Fault will be sent to the event log and reported to the
central station using Contact ID Event Code 333 (expansion device trouble). Antenna Fault
will use Event Code 357. If the tamper is tripped on the LRR, it will use Event Code 341
(expansion device tamper).
