VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-250BPT Installation and Setup Guide

Access Control Using VistaKey

The VistaKey is a single-door access control module that, when connected to the alarm system, provides access control to
the protected premises. The VISTA-128BPT supports up to 8 modules, the VISTA-250BPT supports up to 15 VistaKey
modules (15 access points).
The VistaKey module contains three zones. These zones should ONLY be used for access control functions in UL
U L
installations. THESE INPUT ZONES ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR FIRE AND BURGLARY APPLICATIONS IN UL
INSTALLATIONS.
VistaKey Features
•
Each VistaKey communicates with the VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-250BPT via the V-Plex polling loop.
•
In the event local power to the VistaKey is lost, the VistaKey module provides backup monitoring of the access point
door via a built-in V-Plex device that is powered solely from the polling loop. It is programmed as a new type of V-
Plex device as part of the control's V-Plex Device Programming. A serial number label is affixed to the VistaKey
module for manual entry of its serial number.
•
The VistaKey supports up to 500 cardholders.
•
The addition and removal of VistaKey modules from the system is easily accomplished via the VISTA-
128BPT/VISTA-250BPT keypad.
•
All configurable options for each VistaKey are accomplished via software, firmware, and nonvolatile memory,
eliminating the need for PC board jumpers. The access point zone number (1-15) is set via a user-friendly, 16-
position rotary switch.
•
Each VistaKey provides one open-collector output trigger (sink 12mA @ 12VDC).
Mounting and Wiring the VistaKey
For detailed instructions on how to install and program the VistaKey, refer the Installation and Setup Guide that
accompanies the VistaKey-SK.
To mount and wire the VistaKey module, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Mount the VistaKey, door strike or mag lock, and card reader.
2 Mount the door status monitor (DSM) and/or request-to-exit (RTE) devices.
3 Using Figure 3-22 as a reference, connect the card reader interface cable to TB3, making the +5V or +12V
connection last.
4 Connect the leads to TB1 in the following order:
a. All ground leads to terminals 2, 5, and 9.
b. The DSM, (optional) RTE, and General Purpose leads to terminals 6, 7, and 8, respectively.
c. Door strike (or mag lock) lead to terminal 10.
d. Local +12V or +24V supply lead to terminal 1.
e. Local +12V or +24V supply lead to the N/C relay terminal 11 (if a mag lock is being used), OR to the N/O
relay terminal 10 (if a door strike is being used).
5 Connect the (–) polling loop and (+) polling loop leads (from the VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-250BPT) to terminals
4 and 3, respectively.
6 Set the Address Select switch to the desired access door number (1-15).
7 Repeat steps 1 through 6 for each VistaKey being installed.
