This control complies with NFPA requirements for temporal pulse
sounding of fire notification appliances.
Temporal pulse sounding for a fire alarm consists of the following:
3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses. . . repeated.
The VISTA–10SE provides a 12 VDC output which can power external alarm
sounders (bells or sirens, see compatible sounders listed previously). This
output will activate a sounder when an alarm occurs.
Make connections to alarm output terminals 3 (+) and 4 (–). See Figure 11.

Figure 11. Typical Sounder Wiring

1. With at least one 2-line Alpha keypad (5137AD or 6139) connected to the
keypad terminals on the control, power up the system temporarily. If you
had previously connected the AC transformer to the control panel, you
need only plug in the transformer (to 120VAC outlet) to power up the
system.
2. Enter the programming mode by keying the following on the Alpha keypad:
INSTALLER code (4 1 1 1) + 8 + 0.
3. Press 28. Single Alarm Sounding per Zone/Armed Period .
Enter "1" for yes, "0" for no (default).
4. Press 29. Fire Sounder Timeout.
Enter "1" for no timeout, "0" for timeout (default).
5. Press 30. Alarm Bell Timeout.
Enter 0 for no timeout, 1 for 4 min (default), 2 for 8 min, 3 for 12 min,
4 for 16 min.
6. Press 51. Confirmation of Arming Ding.
Enter "0" for no (default), "1" for yes, "2" for yes, but with RF arming only.
7. Exit the programming mode by entering 99.
After installation of the sounder is completed, the Security System should be
carefully tested, as follows.
1. Connect the battery wires from the control board to the battery, observing
correct polarity.
2. Enter the INSTALLER code (4 1 1 1) and press the TEST key on the wired
keypad.
The external sounder should sound for 1 second if the sounder is good and
proper connections have been made. Note that if the backup battery is
discharged, the sounder will not turn on.
