Enabling Access Groups
When an access group is entered into the system for the first time, the group must be
enabled. The access group can be enabled either by time-driven events or by the #77
command. If you are using time-driven events, the Time-Driven Events Worksheet (see
"Preparing a Time-Driven Event Worksheet" in this section) and the "Programming Time-
Driven Events" above must be completed to enable the access group if you have not already
done so. If you are using the other method (#77) to enable the access group, proceed as
follows:
1. Enter Installer Code + #77.
2. Enter action number 77 (to enable access groups).
3. Enter the access group number.
4. Quit.
Additional System Considerations
The following paragraphs contain information about features that may be used to customize
the operation of the VistaKey/alarm panel as well as installation and programming
considerations.
Momentary Exit Access Points
The system contains a feature that allows an entry reader to be momentarily (15 seconds)
turned into an exit reader. This feature allows the user or access group to perform such tasks
as arming the alarm system by swiping a card while exiting the building. To utilize this
feature, a switch must be wired to an available zone and the system must be programmed to
activate the momentary exit function. To install this feature, observe the following
procedure:
1. Connect a switch to an available zone. Configure the connection so that when the switch is
activated, the zone is shorted. Either mount this switch so that it is not readily accessible
to all people entering or leaving the building, or use a key-switch.
2. To program the VISTA Alarm Panel for the Momentary Exit function, enter #93 Menu
Mode Programming in the alarm system in accordance with the procedures provided in
your alarm system manuals. The following message is displayed on the keypad:
ZONE PROG?
1=YES 0=NO
Set to Confirm?
1=YES 0=NO
ENTER ZONE NO.?
000 = QUIT

Press 1 to enter Zone Programming. The following screen

This prompt pertains to the confirmation of RF and polling loop
device serial numbers. When you are programming for the
Momentary Exit function, the response to this entry does not
affect programming. Press either 1 or 0. The following screen
appears.
Enter the 3-digit zone number for the VistaKey zone being
