2.5 Current Ratings – Modules & Accessories
In order for the PC1404 system to operate properly, the power
output capabilities of the main control and the expansion devices
must not be exceeded. Use the data presented below to ensure
that no part of the system is overloaded, affecting its function.
PC1404 (12 V )
DC
AUX+: 550mA: Subtract the listed rating for each keypad,
expansion module and accessory connected to AUX+ or Keybus.
BELL: 700mA Supervised (1k Ohm) Bell Output (Current Lim-
ited at 2A).
PC1404 Device Ratings (at 12 V
• PC1404RKZ/PC1404RKZWH keypads: 145mA/150mA
• PK55XX keypad: 125mA
• PC1555RKZ keypad: 85mA
• PTK5507 Touchscreen keypad: 200 mA(standby)/
300 mA(activated)/400 mA(Extra Power mode)
• PC5601 LED status module: 30mA
• LCD5511 keypad: 85mA
• LED5511Z keypad: 100mA
• PC5200 power supply: 20 mA
• PC5204 power supply with 4 PGMs: 20 mA
• PC5208 low current PGM module: 20 mA
• TL300 communicator: 360mA
• GS3125 communicator: 250mA
Other Devices
Please read the manufacturer's literature carefully to determine
the maximum current requirements for each device—during
activation or alarm—and include the proper values for loading
calculations. Connected devices must not exceed system capa-
bilities during any possible operational mode.

2.6 Keypad Assignment

Once the wiring is complete and the keypad is fixed on the wall,
a 2-digit number must be entered to tell the system the partition
and slot assignment of the keypad. At each keypad installed on
the system
1. Enter Installer Programming by pressing [*][8][Installer
Code].
2. Press [000] for keypad programming.
3. Press [0] for Partition and Slot Assignment.
4. Enter a 2-digit number to specify the partition and slot
assignment as follows:
a) As the PC1404 does not have partitions, enter [1] for
the first digit. If the first digit is incorrectly pro-
grammed with a value greater than 1, the keypad will
not respond when connected to a single partition sys-
tem (e.g. PC1404). Press and hold the 1 key on the
keypad, then re-enter section [000][0] to correct the
programming.
b) Assign each keypad to its own slot (1 to 8). LED key-
pads, the LCD5511 and the PC1404RKZ/
PC1404RKZWH keypads are always assigned to slot 1
by default. PK5500 and PTK5507 keypads are always
assigned to slot 8. Keypad assignment is required, as it
tells the panel which slots are occupied. The panel can
then generate a keypad supervision trouble when the
keypad is detected as missing.
Note: One LCD keypad must be assigned to slot 8 in
order to upload keypad programming using DLS software.
c) Press the [#] key twice to exit programming.
d) After assigning all keypads, perform a supervisory reset
by entering [*][8][Installer Code][902]. The panel will
reset supervision and re-enroll modules on the system.
How to Program Function Keys
By default, the 5 function keys on each keypad are programmed
as Stay Arm (03), Away Arm (04), Chime (06), Sensor Reset
(14) and Quick Exit (16). You can change the function of each
key on every keypad:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

2.7 Supervision

By default, all modules are supervised upon installation. Super-
vision is enabled at all times so that the panel can indicate a trou-
ble if a module is removed from the system.
To check which modules are currently connected and super-
vised, enter programming Section [903] from Installer Program-
ming. An LCD keypad will allow you to scroll through the
display of connected modules. A connected module which does
not show as being present will appear as a trouble condition and
the Trouble light on the keypad will turn ON. This condition
may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
• the module is not connected to the Keybus
• there is a Keybus wiring problem
• the module is more than 1,000'/305m from the panel
• the module does not have enough power
For more information regarding module supervision troubles,
please refer to [*][2]Trouble Display.

2.8 Removing Modules

The panel must be instructed to no longer supervise a module
being removed from the system. To remove the module, discon-
nect it from the Keybus and reset the supervision field by enter-
ing [902] in Installer Programming. The panel will reset
supervision of all existing modules attached to the keybus.

2.9 Zone Wiring

For a complete description of the operation of all zone types,
please refer to [001] Zone Definitions.
There are several different ways in which zones may be wired,
depending on which programming options have been selected.
The panel can be programmed to supervise normally closed, End
of Line, Double End of Line, or zone doubling loops. Please
refer to the following diagrams to study each type of individu-
ally supervised zone wiring.
Note: Any zone programmed for Fire, 24-hr Supervisory, or CO
must be wired with a single End of Line (SEOL) resistor regard-
less of the type of zone wiring supervision selected for the panel
([013] First System Options: [1]-[2]).
Note: If you change the zone supervision options from DEOL to
SEOL or from NC to DEOL (See [013] First System Options,
Options [1] or [2]), you should power down the system com-
pletely, and then power it back up. If you do not, the zones may
not work correctly.
Normally Closed (NC) Loops
To enable normally closed loops, Section [013], Option [1] must
be ON.
Note: This option should only be selected if Normally Closed
(NC) detection devices or contacts are being used.
Go to the keypad where you want to change the function
key programming and enter Installer Programming.
Press [000] for Keypad Programming.
Enter [1] to [5] to select a function key to program.
Enter the 2-digit number [00] to [32] to select the feature
you want the function key to have. For a complete list see
Section [000] Keypad Function Programming.
Continue from step 3 until all function keys are programmed.
To exit Installer Programming, press [#] twice.
