About Programming

You can program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual
installation. Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer's office/home, using an
IBM personal computer, a modem, and Compass downloading software.
The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system:
Programming Mode...
Data Field Programming
∗56 Zone Programming
∗57 Function Key Programming
∗58 Zone Programming
∗79 Output Device Mapping
∗80 Output Definitions
∗81 Zone List Programming
∗82 Alpha Programming
Scheduling Mode

Zones and Partitions

The system supports up to 64 zones plus three emergency zones (numbered 95, 96, and 99). Each
protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming mode
or *58 Expert Programming mode. Refer to those sections for detailed procedures.
The system can control two independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by
independent users, if desired, by simply assigning zones to one or the other partition during zone
programming. The system, by default, automatically distributes users between the two partitions.
The master user can change the user number distributions.
Zones can also be assigned to a common partition, which is an area shared by users of both partitions
(such as a lobby in a building). This allows either partition to arm, while leaving the common
partition disarmed for access into the other partition. The following describes the functioning of the
common partition:
• The common zone sounds and reports alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only one
partition is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone.
• Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other
partition will not be able to arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected.
• If either partition is armed and the other is in chime mode, the common zone will not chime. The
common zone will chime if both partitions are disarmed and either is in chime mode.
• Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone touchpads, and will also appear on
another partition's touchpad when that partition is armed.
• Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.

Programming Overview

Used to ...
Program basic data fields used for setting the various system options.
Most of the data fields in this system have been programmed for specific
ADT values. However, some fields must be programmed for each particular
installation to establish its specific alarm and reporting features.
Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial
numbers for 5800 RF transmitters.
Program each of the four alphabet function keys to perform one of several
system operations.
Assign zone attributes similar to ∗56 mode, but provides a faster
programming procedure and is intended for those more experienced in
programming controls of this type.
Assign device addresses used by 4229 or 4204 Relay modules and map
specific relays and device outputs, and assign unit codes for Powerline
Carrier devices
Define up to 48 output definitions which can control the output relays
mapped using *79 Output Device Mapping mode.
Create Zone Lists for relay/powerline carrier zones, chime, and pager zones.
Create alpha descriptors for easy zone identification.
Create up to 32 schedules to automate various system functions.
