7. Devices
This chapter explains how to register devices to the system and the programming options for each device. For further
information, please refer to the installation instructions included with each device.
7.1.

Device Descriptors

You can assign a 16-character descriptor to each device except the wireless siren. These descriptors help identify the
devices when you operate and program the system.
To edit a device descriptor:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices [91].
2. Select a device type.
3. From the device's sub-menu, select Descriptor.
4. Edit the descriptor using the alphanumeric keypad.
5. Press when you have finished editing.

Wireless Devices

7.2.1. Registering Wireless Devices
For the system to recognize individual devices, each device must be registered to the system. For example, if the
device is a wireless transmitter, registration enables the system to identify the source of a received transmission.
Each device has an individual encrypted ID code. Registering the device to the system familiarizes the system with
this code.
Note: It is not necessary to register hardwire sensors connected to Zone 33 or wired zones 1 – 8 connected to
Wired Zone Module.
To register a device to the system:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices [91].
2. Select the type of transmitter you want to register. For example, if you want to register a wireless
sensor to a zone, select Zones.
3. Select the specific device you want to register (for example, Zone 4); the system initiates Registration
mode. During Registration mode, the system waits for two transmissions from the device.
Note: If a device has already been registered at the selected location, the system will not initiate Registration
mode. If the device has already been registered at another location, attempts to register it are ignored
by the system. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default, unless the zones 1 to 8 are
programmed as wired zones connected to the Wired Zone Module.
4. Register the device – refer to each device's installation instructions in Appendix B for further details.
5. When two transmissions have been received, Save? is displayed.
6. Press to confirm registration, or
7.2.2. Deleting Wireless Devices
When you want to remove a device from the system, you have to delete the device. It is important to delete unused
devices for two reasons. Firstly, you have to delete a device before you can register a new transmitter in its place.
Secondly, if the device is a wireless sensor, it is important to delete the device so that the system will not react to the
transmitter's failure to send supervision signals.
To delete a device:
1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, [91].
2. Select the type of wireless device you want to delete.
3. Select the specific device you want to delete.
4. From the device's sub-menu, select Delete.
5. Press to confirm; the device is deleted.
