Mounting and Wiring the Control (Continued)
 Refer to the table of compatible devices at the back of this manual.
 Supervised transmitters† send check-in signals to the receiver at 70-90 minute intervals. If
at least one check-in message is not received from each transmitter within a 12-hour period,
the "missing" transmitter number(s) and "CHECK XX" is displayed. († Hand-held
transmitters, e.g., 5834, 5834EN, do not send check-in signals.)
 To be sure reception of the transmitter's signal at the proposed mounting location is
adequate, perform a Go/No Go Test, described in the Testing the System section.
 Install transmitters in accordance with the instructions provided with each.
 Set 5828, wireless keypads to the programmed House ID (field *24), using the instructions
provided with the device.
 Use *56 or *58 Zone Programming Menu modes to program zone information and enroll
transmitters (VISTA-20P: zones 9-48, buttons 49-64; VISTA-15P: zones 9-34, buttons 49-
56).
 Wireless Keys: Use Wireless Key Programming Templates section of the *58 Zone
Programming Menu mode to program zone information and enroll each button of the
wireless keys used. Once a wireless key is enrolled, it must be assigned to a user before it
becomes active. See Adding/Deleting Security Codes section for procedure.
The RF supervision period for the VISTA-20PCN and VISTA-15PCN is three hours for Fire zones
(Zone Type 9 and 16) and 12 hours for all other zone types.
