5800 Series Transmitter Setup

General Information
5800 Series transmitters have built-in serial numbers that must be enrolled in the system
using the 56 or 83 Interactive mode, or input to the control via the downloader. 5800
Series transmitters (except 5827, described separately) do not have DIP switches.
5800 Series Transmitter Input Loops
Each transmitter's zone number is programmed into the system in 56 mode. Some
transmitters, such as the 5816 and 5817, can support more than one "zone" (referred to as
loops or inputs). On the 5816, for example, the wire connection terminal block is loop 1, the
reed contact is loop 2. Each loop must be assigned a different zone number and entered
separately.
For button transmitters (wireless "keys"), such as the 5804 or 5804BD, you must assign a
unique zone number to each individual button used on the transmitter. Each button on the
transmitter also has a pre-designated loop or input number, which is displayed when
entered.
Refer to "5800 Series Transmitter Input Loop Identification" in the separate Programming
Guide manual.
Programming an RF House ID (01–31) in field 24 is necessary only if you are using 5827 or
5827BD wireless keypads. An RF House ID is not necessary for other 5800 Series transmitters;
the entry should be left at "00" (default) in those cases.
The 5827 Wireless Keypad reports low-battery status as zone "00."
5800 Series Transmitter Input Types
All of the transmitters described have one or more unique factory-assigned loop inputs. Each
of the inputs requires its own programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four button inputs require
four programming zones).
5800 Transmitters can be entered into the system as one of the following input device types:
Input Device Type
"RF"
(Supervised RF)
"UR"
(Unsupervised RF)
"BR"
(Unsupervised Button RF)
Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until you are ready to use the transmitters, as
indicated in "Programming the RF Transmitters (5800 RF Systems)" later in this section. Though
it is not critical to remove batteries after entering into the system, it is recommended in order to
avoid interference while entering additional transmitters into the system.

5800 Transmitter Input Device Type Chart

Description
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and
low-battery signals. The transmitter must remain within the
receiver's range.
Sends all the signals that the "RF" type does, but the control
does not supervise the check-in signals. The transmitter may
therefore be carried off-premises.
These send only fault signals. They do not send low-battery
signals until they are activated. The transmitter may be carried
off-premises.
