VISTA-128BPT/128BPT-SIA/250BPT INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
AlarmNet Communicators Connected to the ECP
The control can support an AlarmNet ECP Communicator, which connects to control panel's keypad terminals. All
messages programmed for transmission via the phone lines may also be sent via the Communicator. These messages
are transmitted in Contact ID format regardless of the format programmed for the control in fields ∗45 and ∗47.
We recommend that, if possible, you use Contact ID for the main dialer. If Contact ID is not used,
certain types of reports are not sent.
ULC
For ULC installations, Contact ID is the only permitted format.
Installing the ECP Communicator
1. Mount the Communicator according to the instructions that accompany the Communicator.
2. Connect the data in/out terminals and voltage input terminals of the Communicator to the control's keypad
connection points, terminals 6, 7, 8, and 9. See Figure 11.
3. Enable the ECP Communicator as device 03 in Device Programming, assign it a device type 06
"Communications Device." (See the Programming Guide for more information.)
Supervision
The data lines between the control and the
Communicator, as well as certain functions in
the Communicator, can be supervised.
If communication is lost or a trouble condition
occurs, both the Communicator and the
control's dialer can be programmed to send a
Trouble message to the central station.
NOTE: For complete information, see the
Installation Instructions that
accompany the Communicator.
Trouble Messages
The following messages produce a "Check 8XX" (XX = communicator address) when supervision is enabled in the
control and AlarmNet communicator:
• Power On / Reset
• Tamper
• Power Loss
• Low Battery
• Battery Charger Failure
The above list is non-conclusive and new messages producing a "Check 8XX" may be added later.
