Do you have a question about the VISTA-50P and is the answer not in the manual?

Questions and answers

Rev. David Kossey
June 1, 2025

My Vista-50P keyboard will not take my 'Bypass' command. (The keyboard's green 'ready' indicator light is off, and I can't get it to turn on.) How do I bypass the '#**** door ajar' notice and then arm the building? ('Door '#****' is not ajar.)

To bypass the 'door ajar' notice and arm the ADEMCO VISTA-50P system when the green 'ready' light is off, follow these steps:

1. Enter your security code.
2. Press 6 (bypass).
3. Press # to use the Quick Bypass feature.

The system will display all open (faulted) zones with the word BYPASS. Wait for the zones to be displayed, then arm the system as usual.

    Each of the sections covering the installation of peripheral devices includes the programming for that device. If you are an experienced user of Ademco products, you may choose to wire and then program the entire system at once. If so, refer to Sections 18 through 20 (for complete system programming options) after the hardware setup is complete.

  • Page 13: Section 1: General Description

    Section 1: GENERAL DESCRIPTION The VISTA-50P is an 8-Partition alarm control panel that supports up to 86 zones using basic hardwired, polling loop, and wireless zones. In addition, the control offers relay control and scheduling capabilities for automating system functions. The major system features are outlined below.
  • Page 14 8 Partitions Provides the ability to control 8 separate areas independently, each functioning as if it had its own separate control. Partitioning features include: • A "Common Lobby" partition, which arms automatically when the last partition (1-8) that shares the common lobby is armed and disarms when the first partition (1-8) that shares the common lobby is disarmed •...
  • Page 15 (e.g. lobby door). Each partition can be assigned one access control relay. Optional Keyswitch Supports the Ademco 4146 keyswitch on any one of the systems's 8 partitions. If used, zone 7 is no longer available as a protection zone. Voltage Triggers Provides a trigger connector whose pins change state for different conditions.

  • Page 17: Section 2: Planning A Partitioned System

    Section 2: PLANNING A PARTITIONED SYSTEM This section provides the following information: • Theory of partitioning • Setting up a partitioned system • Common Lobby Logic • Master keypad setup and operation Theory of Partitioning This system provides the ability to arm and disarm up to 8 different areas, each as if it had its own control.
  • Page 18: Common Lobby Logic

    Common Lobby Logic When an installation consists of a partition shared by users of other partitions in a building, that shared partition may be assigned as the "common lobby" partition for the system (program field 1*17). An example of this might be in a medical building where there are two doctor's offices and a common entrance area (see example that follows explanation).
  • Page 19 Example Here is an example of how the lobby would react in a typical setup. OFFICE #1 OFFICE #2 COMMON LOBBY MAIN ENTRANCE User #1 has access to Office #1 and the Common Lobby. User #2 has access to Office #2 and the Common Lobby. Office #1 is set up to affect the Common Lobby, but not arm it.
  • Page 20: Master Keypad Setup And Operation

    How User Access Codes Affect the Common Lobby Codes with "Global" Arming If a code is given "global arming" when it is defined (see Section 24: SECURITY ACCESS CODES ), the keypad will ask "Arm all?" or "Disarm all?" whenever the user tries to arm or disarm the partitions he has access to from an alpha keypad.
