Telephone Line Connections; Figure 3-7: Wiring Nonpolarized Burglary Devices - Honeywell VISTA-128BP Installation And Setup Manual

Supervising the Alarm Output
To wire the alarm output using the supervision
feature, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Wire polarized fire-indicating devices to the
alarm output as shown in Figure 3-6.
2 Wire nonpolarized burglary indicating
devices to the alarm output using a
polarizing diode (two 2A diodes supplied), as
shown in Figure 3-7.
3 Program Zone 970 with a response type of 05
(trouble by day/alarm by night).
NOTE: When supervising the bell output (zone
970), only one device can be connected to the alarm
output (terminals 4 and 5) for UL and Fire
installations.
The minimum load on the alarm output must
exceed 5mA at 12V for proper supervision
operation.
If a device such as a siren driver with a high-
U L
resistance trigger input (drawing less than 5mA)
is used in a UL Household Fire installation, the
siren driver must independently supervise siren
speaker wiring.

Telephone Line Connections

Connect the main dialer output to telephone company
lines using the RJ31X cables supplied.
The telephone line inputs have overvoltage
U L
protection in accordance with UL1459, as
specified in UL985/UL1023.
The system is shipped defaulted for Contact ID
format. It is the only format capable of uniquely
reporting all 250 zones, as well as openings
and closings for all 250 users. This requires
central stations to be equipped with the
ADEMCO 685 receiver using software level
4.10 or higher. If you need an update, contact
your distributor.

Using a Siren Driver
To install a siren driver, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Mount the siren driver in the panel's
cabinet.
2 Wire the siren driver to the control and to
the speaker(s). (See the driver's
instructions.)
3 Cut the blue jumper on the upper left-hand
corner of the panel's PC board.
4 Program Zone 970 with no response type
(00).
Disabling the Supervision of the Alarm Output
To install the alarm output and disable the supervision
feature, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Wire the devices to terminals 4 and 5,
observing polarity if necessary.
2 Cut the blue jumper on the upper left-hand
corner of the panel's PC board.
3 Program Zone 970 with no response type
(00).
To prevent the risk of shock, disconnect
phone lines at the telco jack before servicing.
If the communicator is connected to a PABX,
be sure it has a backup power supply that
can support the PABX for 24 hours (central
station) or 60 hours (remote station). Many
PABXs are not power-backed up, and this
can result in a communication failure if power
is lost .
Reporting Formats
The system supports the following formats:
ADEMCO Low Speed 3+1; 4+1; 4+2; Sescoa/Radionics
3+1; 4+1; 4+2; ADEMCO 4+2 Express; ADEMCO High
Speed; ADEMCO Contact ID
