Important Installation Highlights (Installer Please Read)  
This system uses addressable keypads and Zone Expander Modules (see Table of Addresses in  
Section 2. Mounting and Wiring – Wiring the Keypads and Other Addressable Devices).  
Keypads must be set for addresses 16-23 (first keypad is address 16, which is different from  
previous controls) and programmed in data fields *190-*196.  
Zone Expander Modules must be set for specific addresses (07-11), based on the zone numbers used.  
4204 Relay Modules must be set for specific addresses (12-15).  
This control will not power-up unless AC power is connected (will not power-up on battery alone).  
However, once the system is powered up, it will operate on battery power in the event of AC loss.  
Relays have two programming menu modes: Use *79 Menu mode to map module addresses and  
device (output) numbers. Use *80 Menu mode to define the output functions.  
This system supports programmable function keys. Use *57 Menu mode to define the function  
keys.  
This system provides various paging features. Refer to the Programming Overview section for a  
summary on pager programming.

24-HOUR BATTERY BACKUP REQUIREMENTS  
The California State Fire Marshal and UL have regulations which require that all residential fire alarm control panels must be  
provided with a backup battery which has sufficient capacity to operate the panel and its attached peripheral devices for 24 hours in  
the intended standby condition, followed by at least 4 minutes in the intended fire alarm signaling condition. This control panel can  
meet these requirements without using a supplementary power supply, provided that the panel’s auxiliary power and bell output  
currents are limited as indicated below.

Battery Saver Feature  
Earth Ground  
The battery will disconnect from the system after its voltage decreases below 9VDC.  
This assists the control panel in recharging the battery when AC is restored.  
IMPORTANT: The panel will not power up initially on battery power only. You must  
plug the transformer in first, and then connect the battery.  
This product has been designed and laboratory-tested to ensure its resistance to  
damage from generally expected levels of lightning and electrical discharge, and does  
not normally require an earth ground.  
If an earth ground is desired for additional protection in areas of severe electrical  
activity, terminal 25 on the control board, or the cabinet, may be used as the ground  
connection point. The following are examples of good earth grounds available at most  
installations.

Basic Connections  
Make sounder connections to alarm output terminals 3 (+) and 4 (–).  
The 12VDC sounder output activates when an alarm occurs.  
Total current drawn from this output cannot exceed 2 amps (going beyond 2 amps will  
overload the power supply, or may cause the electronic circuit protecting the sounder  
output to trip).

Smoke Detector Notes  
Fire Verification (zone type 16): The control panel will “verify” a fire alarm by  
resetting the smoke detectors after the first alarm trigger, and then waiting 90 seconds  
for a second alarm trigger. If the smoke detector or thermostat does not trigger again,  
the control will disregard the first trigger, and no alarm signal will occur. This feature  
eliminates false alarms due to electrical or physical transients.  
SIA Installations: If using fire verification on zones other than zone 1, UL Fire Alarm  
Listed relay accessories must be used to reset power as described in the Power Reset  
paragraph above.  
The zone 1 alarm current supports only one smoke detector in the alarmed state.  
Clean Me Option: If enabled (field *174 = 1; *56 zone programming, response time  
prompt = 3), certain ESL smoke detectors send “clean me” reports as appropriate. If  
used, the maximum number of detectors is reduced to 10 (not standard 16). Refer to the  
ESL documentation included with the smoke detector for information regarding  
compatibility with the clean-me option.  
Do not use 4-wire smoke detectors on zone 1.

Mounting and Wiring the Control  
Installing a 5800TM  
Module  
Use this module only if you are using one or more wireless bi-directional keypads or  
keyfobs with a wireless Receiver; 5800TM is not necessary if using a Transceiver (e.g.,  
5883).  
The 5800TM must be set to address 28 (cut red-W1 jumper).  
The 5800TM can be used in partition 1 only.  
For additional information regarding the 5800TM, refer to the 5800TM’s instructions.  
1. Mount the 5800TM next to the RF receiver (between one and two feet from the  
receiver’s antennas) using its accompanying mounting bracket. Do not install within  
the control cabinet.  
2. Connect the 5800TM to the control panel’s keypad connection terminals as shown on  
the Summary of Connections diagram and set to address 28.  
Installing the  
Transmitters  
Refer to the table of compatible devices at the back of this manual.  
Supervised transmitters† send check-in signals to the receiver at 70-90 minute  
intervals. If at least one check-in message is not received from each transmitter within  
a 12-hour period, the “missing” transmitter number(s) and “CHECK” is displayed. (†  
Hand-held transmitters, e.g., 5802, 5802CP, 5804, 5804BD, 5827, 5827BD, do not send  
check-in signals.)  
To be sure reception of the transmitter's signal at the proposed mounting location is  
adequate, perform a Go/No Go Test, described in the Testing the System section.  
Install transmitters in accordance with the instructions provided with each.  
Set 5827, 5827BD, 5804BD wireless keypads to the programmed House ID (field *24),  
using its DIP switches (5827) or follow the instructions provided with the device.  
Use *56 or *58 Zone Programming Menu modes to program zone information and enroll  
transmitters (VISTA-20P: zones 9-48, buttons 49-64; VISTA-15P: zones 9-34, buttons  
49-56).  
Wireless Keys: Use Wireless Key Programming Templates section of the *58 Zone  
Programming Menu mode to program zone information and enroll each button of the  
wireless keys used. Once a wireless key is enrolled, it must be assigned to a user before  
it becomes active. See Adding/Deleting Security Codes section for procedure.  
ULC NOTE: In accordance with ULC standards, the RF supervision period for the VISTA-20PCN  
and VISTA-15PCN is three hours for Fire zones (Zone Type 9 and 16) and 12 hours for all other zone  
types.

L The following transmitters are not intended for use in UL installations: 5802MN, 5802MN2, 5804,  
5804BD, 5814, 5816TEMP, 5819, 5819WHS & BRS, and 5850.  
The 5827BD and 5800TM can be used in UL Listed Residential Burglar installations.  
Transmitter Battery Life  
• See Wireless Transmitter paragraph in the Limitations of This Alarm System  
statement located at the end of this manual for information on transmitter battery  
life.  
• Some transmitters (e.g., 5802 and 5802CP) contain long-life but non-replaceable  
batteries, and no battery installation is required. At the end of their life, the complete  
unit must be replaced (and a new serial number enrolled by the control).  
• Button-type transmitters (such as 5801, 5802, and 5802CP) should be periodically  
tested for battery life.  
• The 5802MN and 5804 Button Transmitters have replaceable batteries.  
Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until you are ready to enroll during  
system programming. After enrolling, batteries need not be removed.

A UL Listed keyswitch is required for fire installations and UL commercial and residential  
burglar alarm installations. The Ademco 4146 keyswitch is UL Listed.  
If a keyswitch is used on:  
an installation that transmits opening and closing signals, the keyswitch zone must be programmed  
to send opening and closing signals.  
a UL commercial burglar alarm installation, the keyswitch’s tamper switch must be connected in to  
the alarm system. This tamper switch zone must also be programmed for Zone Type 05 – Trouble  
by Day / Alarm by Night.  
a fire alarm installation, the keyswitch must be located next to an alphanumeric display keypad.  
Use 4146 keyswitch or any N.O. keyswitch.  
Use only one keyswitch per partition.  
When using a keyswitch, the zone it is connected to is no longer available for use as a  
protective zone.  
Use *56 Menu mode to program the keyswitch zone and assign it zone type 77.  
Use *80 Menu mode to program the LED functions: program outputs 17 and 18 for  
system operation zone type 78 (red LED) and 79 (green LED) as appropriate (see

Figure 16. 4285/4286 Phone Module Wiring Connections  
Only one phone module can be used and it can only be connected to partition 1.  
The phone lines must be in service for the phone module to function, even when  
accessing the system from an on-premises phone.  
If you are also using an Audio Alarm Verification (AAV) unit, refer to Audio Alarm  
Verification (AAV) section for special wiring connections.  
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication  
line cord for phone line connections.  
Phone Module Problems  
If no touch tones are produced following access to the security system from on-premises  
(this problem may arise in rare cases), it may be necessary to reverse the wires connected  
to terminals 3 and 4 on the phone module and the wires connected to terminals (21) &  
(22) on the control. The wiring diagram shows the wiring connections that will provide  
proper operation in most cases.  
Connection to the incoming telco line via a RJ31X jack and direct-connect cord, as shown,  
is essential, even if the system is not connected to a central station. The 4285 or 4286 will  
not function if this is not done and an error signal (fast busy signal) will occur when  
trying to access the system via the phone.  
The house phone lines (gray and brown wires) must be wired to the phone module  
terminals; not to the control terminals. Otherwise, an error signal (fast busy signal) will  
occur when trying to access the system from an on-premises phone.

Programming Overview  
About Programming  
You can program the system at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual installation.  
Programming can also be performed remotely from the installer’s office/home, using an IBM personal  
computer, a modem, and Compass downloading software.  
The following is a list of the various Programming modes used to program this system.  
Programming Mode…  
Used to …  
Data Field Programming  
Program basic data fields used for setting the various system options.  
Most of the data fields in this system have been programmed for specific default  
values. However, some fields must be programmed for each particular installation to  
establish its specific alarm and reporting features.  
Assign zone characteristics, report codes, alpha descriptors, and serial numbers for  
5800 RF transmitters. See *56 Zone Programming in Section 5. Menu Mode  
Programming for procedures for programming zones.  
56 Zone Programming  
Program each of the four alphabet function keys to perform one of several system  
operations.  
57 Function Key

Data Field Programming Procedures  
Task  
Procedure  
Entering Program Mode  
A) Press both [ ] and [#] at the same time within 50 seconds after power is applied,  
OR  
B) After power-up, enter [Installer code (4-1-1-2)] + 8 0 0 (long beep indicates one of the  
partitions is armed and system cannot enter program mode).  
(method “B” is disabled if you exit Program mode using 98)  
Go to a Data Field  
Entering Data  
Press [ ] + [Field Number]. A display of “EE” or “Entry Error” means you have entered a  
nonexistent field. Simply re-enter [ ] plus a valid field number.  
When the desired field number appears, simply enter the digits required. The keypad  
beeps three times after the last digit is entered and automatically displays the next data  
field in sequence.  
If entering less than the maximum digits available (e.g., phone number field), enter the  
desired digits, then press [ ] to end the entry.  
Press [#] + [Field Number]. The field’s data is displayed, but no changes can be made.  
Review a Data Field

Zone Type Definitions  
Zone types define the way in which the system responds to faults in each zone.  
Zone Type  
Type 00  
Description  
Program a zone with this zone type if the zone is not used.  
Zone Not Used  
Type 01  
Entry/Exit  
Burglary #1  
Assign to zones that are used for primary entry and exit.  
Provides entry delay when zone is faulted if control is armed in the Away, Stay, or Night-Stay  
modes.  
No entry delay provided when the panel is armed in the Instant/Maximum mode.  
Entry delay #1 is programmable for each partition (field *35).  
Exit delay begins whenever the control is armed, regardless of the arming mode selected, and  
is programmable (field 34).  
Type 02  
Entry/Exit  
Burglary #2  
Assign to zones that are used for entry and exit and require more time than the primary  
entry/exit point.  
Provides a secondary entry delay, in same manner as entry delay #1.  
Entry delay #2 is programmable for each partition (field *36).  
Exit delay is same as described for Type 01.  
Assign to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows.  
Provides an instant alarm if the zone is faulted when the panel is armed in the Away, Stay,  
Night-Stay, Instant or Maximum modes.  
Type 03  
Perimeter  
Burglary  
Type 04  
Interior Follower  
Assign to a zone covering an area such as a foyer, lobby, or hallway through which one must  
pass upon entry (to and from the keypad).  
Provides a delayed alarm (using the programmed entry 1 time) if the entry/exit zone is faulted  
first. Otherwise this zone type gives an instant alarm.  
Active when the panel is armed in the Away mode.  
Bypassed automatically when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes;  
if armed in Night-Stay mode, zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list) are not  
bypassed when system armed in Night-Stay mode.

the Away mode.  
Entry Delay 1 begins whenever sensors in this zone are violated, regardless of whether or not  
an entry/exit delay zone was tripped first.  
Bypassed when the panel is armed in the Stay or Instant modes; if armed in Night-Stay mode,  
zones assigned to zone list 05 (night-stay zone list) are not bypassed when system armed in  
Night-Stay mode.  
Type 12  
Monitor Zone  
Works as a dynamic monitor of a zone fault/trouble (not alarm). In the case of a short/open, the  
message, "*ALARM*-24 Hr. Non-Burg. -#XXX " (where XXX is the zone number) will be sent  
to the Central Station. The system keypad will display a “check” message indicating the  
appropriate zone (but keypad beeping does not occur). Upon restoral of the zone, the message,  
"*RESTORE*-24 Hr. Non-Burg. -#XXX " will be sent to the Central Station.  
The “check” message will automatically disappear from the keypad dynamically, when the  
zone restores; a user code + off sequence is not needed to reset the zone.  
Faults of this zone type are independent of the system, and can exist at the time of arming  
without interference.  
Since this is a “trouble” zone type, do not use this zone type with relays set to activate upon  
“alarm.”  
Assigned to any zone with a carbon monoxide detector.  
The bell output will pulse when this zone type is alarmed.  
Always active and cannot be bypassed.  
Type 14  
24 Hour Carbon  
Monoxide  
Monitor  
Type 16  
Fire  
w/Verification  
Provides a fire alarm when zone is shorted, but only after alarm verified.  
System verifies alarm by resetting zones for 12 seconds after short is detected. A subsequent  
short circuit within 90 seconds triggers fire alarm.  
Provides a trouble response when zone is open.  
Arms the system in Stay mode when the zone is activated.  
Pushbutton units send the user number to the central station when arming or disarming.  
User number for button must be assigned.  
Type 20  
Arm-Stay (BR  
only)  
Type 21  
Arm-Away (BR  
only)  
Arms the system in Away mode when the zone is activated.  
Pushbutton units send the user number to the central station when arming or disarming.  
User number for button must be assigned.  
Type 22  
Disarm (BR only)  
Disarms the system when the zone is activated.  
User number for button must be assigned.

Type 23 *  
No Alarm  
Response  
Can be used on a zone when an output relay action is desired, but with no accompanying  
alarm (e.g., lobby door access).  
Type 24  
Silent Burglary  
Usually assigned to all sensors or contacts on exterior doors and windows where bells and/or  
sirens are NOT desired.  
Provides an instant alarm, with NO audible indication at any keypad or external sounder, if  
the zone is faulted when the system is armed in the Away, Stay, Instant, or Maximum modes.  
A report is sent to the central station.  
Type 77  
Keyswitch  
Assign to zone wired to a keyswitch.  
Do not use devices assigned as input type “BR” with this zone type.  
Type 81  
AAV Monitor  
Zone  
Assign to zone connected to AAV module.  
Monitors 2-way voice sessions as follows:  
- When the zone is faulted, all alarm sounding and dialer reporting stops, except  
for fire alarms, which immediately terminate the voice session and cause  
a fire report to be sent.  
- When the zone is restored (session ended), sounding resumes (if bell timeout  
has not expired) and reports that were stopped are sent.  
Allows for various custom responses. Options include response to entry/exit delays, response  
opens/shorts, types of alarm/trouble sounding, dial delay, and unique Contact ID report codes.  
Types 92 and 93 can only be programmed via downloader. UL installations: Zone Types 90 -93  
may not be used as fire or burglar alarm zones on fire or UL burglar alarm installations.  
Types 90-93  
Configurable  
* The system can still be armed when these zone types are in a faulted condition.  
NOTE: All of the zone types described are available for the wireless portion of the system, if used.

If selected, all messages programmed to go to the  
primary telephone line receiver will also be sent to the  
connected 7720PLUS, 7820, 7835, or 7845 Radio (sent  
in Contact ID format). The data line is supervised as  
well as certain functions in the radio. If communication  
is lost or a trouble develops, an attempt will be made to  
send a message via both radio and telephone to the  
central station. Program the radio for device address 3.  
UL installations must be 0 (no forced bypass)  
*24  
RF House ID Code  
00 = disable all wireless keypad usage  
0131 = House ID for partition 1, 2 and common

Open Report Code  
0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59  
After arming the system, entry/exit and interior zones  
remaining open after exit delay expires cause an alarm  
sound at the keypad and external sounder (keypad also  
displays “EXIT ALARM”), and entry delay begins.  
Disarming before the end of the entry delay stops the  
alarm sounding and no message is sent to the central  
station. The keypad will display “CA” (fixed-word) or  
“ALARM CANCELED” (alpha display).  
Sent upon disarming the system in the selected  
partitions. See UL System Reporting Note above *59.  
*66  
Arm Away/Stay Report Code  
0 = no report; 1-F = see description above *59  
This option allows for independent programming of  
Away and Stay reports for each partition, including the  
common lobby.  
If the system is not disarmed before entry delay expires,  
an “EXIT ALARM” message (V20PSIA/V15PSIA: also  
zone alarm message) will be sent to the central station.  
The keypad will display “EA” (fixed-word ) or “EXIT  
ALARM” (alpha display), and alarm sounding continues  
until the system is disarmed (or timeout occurs).  
An Exit Alarm condition will also result if a fault occurs  
in an exit or interior zone within 2 minutes following  
the end of the exit delay, and an “EXIT ALARM”  
message will be sent to the central station (except for  
V20PSIA/V15PSIA, see field *69 Recent Closing  
report). With Contact ID format, the message will  
contain the zone number and error code 374

Reset occurs only once during an armed period.  
IMPORTANT: AAV should not be used when Paging or Alarm  
Reports are sent to a secondary number unless the monitoring  
zone option is used (which pauses calls). Otherwise, the call to  
the secondary number by the communicator after the alarm

Configurable Zone Type Options  
Auto Restore (entry 2): Faults on zones set for this option  
are cleared; restore messages sent upon restoral of faults.  
Configurable Zone Type Fields  
The system allows you to define custom zone types  
(VISTA-20P supports 4 [types 90-93]; VISTA-15P  
supports 2 [types 90, 91]), based on the options  
described at right.  
All configurable zone types can be programmed via  
the downloader.  
Vent Zone (entry 2): Zones set for this option are ignored if  
faulted when arming the system, but are protected if the zone  
is later restored (e.g., an open window can be ignored when  
arming, but if the window is later closed, it will be protected;  
opening the window again causes an alarm.)  
Configurable zone types 90 and 91 can also be  
programmed from a keypad using data fields *182-*185.  
UL installations: Do not configure zones as fire alarm  
or UL burglar alarm zones.  
Bypass Disarmed (entry 4): Zones set for this option can be  
bypassed only while the system is disarmed.  
Bypass Armed (entry 4): Zones set for this option can be  
bypassed when the system is armed or disarmed.  
Dial Delay (entry 6): Alarms on zones set for this option  
participate in dial delay central station reporting, if system  
dial delay enabled in field *50.

entry 2 for “alarm response to short,” “auto restore on,”  
but not a “vent zone,” enter 5 (“1” for alarm short + “4”  
for auto restore-yes + “0” for vent zone-no).  
Faults Display (entry 7): Selects how faults on zones set for  
this zone type are displayed.  
Power Reset/Verification(entry 7): Selects whether the  
system resets power (when user enters code + OFF), and  
whether the system performs alarm verification (see  
description for zone type 16 in Programming Overview  
section) when a fault occurs on these zones.

zones set for this zone type.  
Important Notice on Report Codes: To avoid  
confusion at the central station, it is recommended  
that existing Contact ID® codes be used with  
configurable zone types whenever possible. See list in  
System Communication section and/or check with  
the central station for a complete list of Contact ID®  
report codes. If none of the codes are suitable, choose a  
code in the reserved range of 750-789 and make sure to  
define the code with your central station.  
Bell Timeout (entry 9): Alarm sounding on zones set for this  
option remain for the duration set in fields *32 / *33.  
Fire Zone (entry 9): Zones set for this option respond in the  
same manner as if programmed for zone type 9. Do not set  
fire zones to respond as a “fault” in entries 1-6.  
Trouble Sounds (entry 10): Selects the type of trouble  
sounds for zones set for this zone type (periodic beeps = once  
every 30 seconds; trouble beeps = rapid beeping).

Exit Time Display Interval  
0 = no display; 1-5 = seconds between display updates  
If enabled, keypads display the exit time remaining  
after arming the system, updated at the interval  
selected (i.e. if the exit delay is 30 seconds and “2” is  
selected in this field, the keypad display refreshes every  
2 seconds, displaying 30, 28, 26, 24, etc.).  
An interval greater than “1” may be necessary for some  
older keypads to allow users time to enter key presses  
between display updates.  
Keypad Programming Fields  
To enable keypads:  
1. Set desired address at keypad (refer to keypad’s  
instructions for setting the address).  
2. Use data field program mode to enable keypad  
addresses, assign a partition, enable sound options  
in fields *190-*196 as shown in the table above.  
3. If desired, use data field *198 to turn on the display  
of the partition number.  
4. Set the following keypad-related data fields as  
required by the installation:  
*21 Quick Arm Enable, *23 Forced Bypass, *84  
Auto STAY Arm  
5. If using touch screen devices (AUI), enable each  
unit in field *189 and set AUI 1 to address 1, AUI 2  
to address 2.  
FIXED-WORD KEYPAD NOTE: If using 2-digit  
display keypads (e.g. 6150RF), do not use exit times  
greater than the 96-second delay option. Using a longer  
delay time may cause end-user confusion because 2-digit  
display keypads cannot display times greater than “99.”  
If longer exit time is required by the installation, it is  
recommended that the Exit Time Display option be  
disabled (“0”).  
*198  
Display Partition Number  
NOTE: Each keypad must be assigned a unique  
address, starting at address 16 (address 16 is  
reserved for keypad 1, which is automatically set to  
partition 1 with all sounds enabled). Keypads  
programmed with the same address will give  
unpredictable results.

the device address (00-30) of device causing the fault  
(e.g., faults on device 07 display as “107”).  
Select “1” if using 2-digit Fixed-Word Display keypads  
(e.g., certain 6128 series keypads). If selected, ECP  
faults for all devices will display as “91” on 2-digit  
displays, and “191” on 3-digit or Alpha keypads.

Menu Mode Programming  
Zones and Partitions  
Each protection zone needs to be programmed with various attributes using *56 Zone Programming mode  
or 58 Expert Programming Mode.  
The VISTA-20P system can control two independent areas of protection (known as partitions) for use by  
independent users, if desired, by simply assigning zones to one or the other partition during zone  
programming. The VISTA-20P, by default, automatically distributes users between the two partitions. The  
master user can change the user number distributions.  
Zones can also be assigned to a common partition, which is an area shared by users of both partitions (such  
as a lobby in a building). This allows either partition to arm, while leaving the common partition disarmed  
for access into the other partition. The following describes the functioning of the VISTA-20P common  
partition:  
• The common zone sounds and reports alarms only when both partitions are armed. If only one partition  
is armed, the system ignores faults on the common zone.  
• Either partition may arm its system if the common zone is faulted, but once armed, the other partition  
will not be able to arm unless the common zone is first bypassed or the fault is corrected.  
• Faults on the common zone are displayed on common zone keypads, and will also appear on another  
partition’s keypad when that partition is armed.  
• Either partition can clear and restore the common zone after an alarm.  
About Zone Programming (56 and 58 Menu Modes)  
Used to program zones, zone types, report codes, enroll 5800 RF Wireless Transmitter serial numbers,  
and identify the type of loop input device(s).  
Can also be used to enter alpha descriptors for programmed zones; however, we recommend entering  
descriptors in menu mode 82 (Alpha Descriptor Programming after all zone programming has been  
completed).  
*58 Expert Programming mode provides a faster method of zone programming than *56 Menu mode, but  
is recommended only for those who have had previous experience in programming controls of this type.  
NOTE: Alpha display prompts are shown in a double-line box.  
56 Zone Programming Procedure  
1. Enter the zone number to be programmed.  
2. Make appropriate entries at the prompts.  
3. Confirm the serial number of wireless transmitter zones.  
Start Zone Programming mode by pressing 56 while in Data Programming mode.  
Set to Confirm  
0 = no; 1 = yes  
SET TO CONFIRM?  
0 = NO 1 = YES  
If 1 (Yes) is entered, you will be prompted to confirm each transmitter after entering the  
serial and loop numbers (at the “XMIT TO CONFIRM” prompt later in this procedure). We  
recommend that you confirm the programming of every transmitter.

All of the RF transmitters have one or more unique factory-assigned input (loop) ID codes.  
Each of the inputs requires its own programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four inputs require  
four programming zones).  
RF Transmitters can be enrolled as one of the following types:  
Type  
Description  
RF  
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low-  
battery signals. The trans. must stay within 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.  
(Supervised RF)  
UR  
(Unsupervised RF)  
BR  
(Unsupervised  
Button RF)  
Sends only fault signals. It will not send a low-battery signal until it  
is activated. The transmitter may be carried off-premises.  
NOTE:  
For the built-in hardwired zones, the Input Device type is automatically displayed as HW  
and cannot be edited.  
To change the input type of a previously programmed wireless device (type RF, UR, BR)  
to a wired zone (type AW), you must first delete transmitter’s serial number (see To  
Delete A Serial Number prompt on next page)

About Output Device Programming (*79/*80 Menu Mode)  
Output Devices:  
The VISTA-20P system supports up to 16 relays and/or Powerline Carrier devices  
(X-10 devices) plus 2 built-in trigger outputs in any combination. These 18 “outputs”  
are assigned to system-wide output numbers (01-18). Use *79 Menu Mode to assign  
output numbers and map them to device addresses.  
The VISTA-15P supports 8 relays and 2 built-in trigger outputs (total 10 outputs).  
Output Functions: The system also provides installer-defined output functions, which can be assigned to  
any of the physical outputs. Therefore, the action of any one of the outputs can be  
based on as many of these functions as desired. This lets a single relay or X-10 device  
perform many functions.  
The controls support up to 48 output functions.  
Use *80 Menu Mode to define output functions.  
Relays and output devices are not recommended for life safety applications.  
NOTE: When navigating the *79 and *80 menus: The [ ] key is used to accept an entry and advance to  
the next prompt. The [#] key is used to revert back to the last question to check or change an entry. Press  
[ ] to go forward again.  
Programming Output Devices  
1. Use *79 Menu Mode to assign module and output numbers and map them to device addresses.  
NOTE: You must map output devices using *79 Menu Mode before you can use *80 menu Mode.  
2. Use *80 Menu Mode to create output definitions, which control the output devices, if desired.  
3. Use *81 Zone List Menu mode to define zone lists for use with output devices if the device action is  
based on more than one zone.  
To program a device for manual activation (user code + [#] [7] / [#] [8] + 2-digit device number) or for  
scheduled automatic activation, simply map the device using *79 Menu mode.  
To program a device to automatically activate upon a system event (or function key), use *79 Menu mode to  
map the device, then use *80 Menu mode to define the automated device action.  
*79 Menu Mode: Output Device Mapping  
Use this menu to assign Relay Module device addresses and specific relay numbers, and Powerline Carrier  
unit numbers. The system is based on predefined module addresses for 4204 and 4229 modules. Refer to the  
table shown at the “Module Address” prompt on the next page and set the modules’ addresses (via module  
DIP switches) accordingly.  
The following table shows how these outputs are identified.  
Output Identification  
This output…  
is identified by…

*80 Menu Mode: Defining Output Functions  
Use this mode to program output function definitions (up to 48 functions) that provide automated control of  
any of the output devices, based on events occurring on individual zones or zones with certain zone types.  
Each output definition is identified by an output function number, and includes the following components:  
Output Definition Components  
Component  
Description  
Output Function No. A reference number that defines an output’s characteristics.  
Activated By  
Event  
Determines whether the initiating event occurs on a zone, a zone list, or a zone type.  
Event that triggers the output action. Can be an event occurring on a specific zone number or  
a zone list, or a specific zone type.  
Partition  
If the output is activated by zone type, this defines the partition in which the programmed  
event is to cause the device action.  
Output Action  
Defines the action of the relay/X-10 device when the defined event occurs. Can close for 2  
seconds, stay closed until reset, continuously pulse (1-second close-open-close-open, etc.),  
toggle the device state, or activate for a defined duration (set in data field *177).  
Assigns this function to a specific output number (defined in *79 Menu Mode). This is the  
output number that will perform this function upon the triggering event. Note that each  
defined function is associated with only one output number. This means that if more than one  
output device needs to perform this particular function, you need to define another output  
function number with the same attributes, but assign the appropriate output number. (i.e.  
output devices can be assigned more than one function number, but each function number can  
only be assigned a single output number.  
Output No.  
For example, if you want to pulse a strobe light upon fire alarms on zone 4 using a relay mapped to  
output number 2 (as programmed in *79 Menu Mode), program the following in *80 Menu Mode:

Installation and Setup Guide  
About Descriptor Programming (*82 Menu Mode)  
The system lets you assign zone descriptors for protection zones, keypad panics, and RF receiver supervision  
faults. Each description can be composed of a combination of words (up to 3) selected from a vocabulary of  
196 words stored in memory (see a following page). In addition, up to 10 installer-defined words can be added  
to those already in memory, plus 3 additional words can be assigned as partition descriptors. Thus, when an  
alarm or trouble occurs in a zone, an appropriate description for that zone's location can be displayed at the  
keypad. Zone descriptors are recommended for systems using Alpha display keypads, and are necessary if a  
4285 or 4286VIP Phone Module is used.  
NOTE: You can enter zone descriptors when the zone is being defined in 56 Menu mode, but we  
recommend you do it using 82 Menu mode.  
If using a 4285 or 4286VIP Phone Module, select from those words in the Alpha Vocabulary List shown  
in boldface type. The phone module will not provide annunciation of the other words.  
If a 4285/4286 Phone Module is added to an existing system, the Alpha descriptors presently in the  
system should be reprogrammed, selecting from those words shown in boldface type in the Alpha  
Vocabulary List. The phone module will not provide annunciation of any other words.  
Programming Zone Descriptors (Menu Mode 82)  
1. Enter index numbers for up to three words from the Alpha Vocabulary List for each descriptor by  
following the prompts.  
2. Enter up to ten 10-digit custom words, if desired, which can then be used in descriptors.  
When defining descriptors:  
Pressing... Does This...

next zone number for which you wish to enter (or check) a descriptor. A summary display  
for that zone will appear. You must then press [ ] plus the same zone number again to  
gain access to the entry mode (flashing cursor) for that zone.

summary display appears. Repeat the previous steps to enter the descriptor for the zone.  
Adding Custom Words (will not be annunciated by 4285/4286 Phone Module)  
You can add up to 10 installer-defined words to the built-in vocabulary, which can then be used when  
programming zone descriptors. Each of the 10 words can actually consist of a word string of one or more  
words, but no more than ten characters can be used for each word or word string.  
When adding custom words, the keypad keys perform the following functions:  
[4] Moves cursor one space to the left.  
[6] Moves cursor one space to the right.  
[8] Saves the new word in the system's memory.  
1. Select Custom Word mode (enter 1) when the prompt “CUSTOM WORD ?” is displayed.  
2. Enter the number (01–10†) of the custom word or word string to be created, corresponding to index  
numbers 245 - 254 respectively (for example, if you are creating the first custom word or word-string,  
enter 01, for the second, enter 02, etc.). A cursor will now appear at the beginning of the second line.  
† or 11, 12, 13 for partition 1, partition 2 and common lobby descriptors respectively. See Assigning Partition Descriptors  
paragraph below.  
NOTE: Custom words 8, 9, and 10 are “reminder words” that are programmed using Scheduling Mode.  
3. Refer to the Character List of letters, numbers, and symbols on a following page.  
Press [#], followed by the two-digit entry for the first letter you would like to display (e.g., # 65 for “A”).  
The cursor will then move to the right, in position for the next character.  
To delete a character, simply enter the SPACE character (#32).  
4. Repeat Step 3 to create the desired word(s). Note that the “4” key can be used to move the cursor to the  
left, if necessary. Remember, no word or word-string can exceed 10 characters.  
5. Press the [8] key to save the custom word(s) and return to the “CUSTOM WORD ?” display.  
Repeat Steps 2–5 for other custom words to be entered. To change a custom word, just overwrite it. If no  
more are to be entered now, press [0] to return to the Descriptor entry. The custom word(s) will be  
automatically added to the built-in vocabulary.  
Assigning Partition/Custom Message Descriptors  
VISTA-15P: You can create a custom message display that appears on alpha keypads instead of “System  
Ready.” To assign a custom message, use word number 11 as described below.  
VISTA-20P: You can assign a partition descriptor (up to 16 characters) for each partition plus the common  
lobby. The system displays the appropriate partition’s word instead of “DISARMED READY TO ARM.”  
Use the same procedure as for adding custom words (described above), but use these word numbers in step 2:  
11 = partition 1 ___________________________________________  
12 = partition 2 ___________________________________________ (VISTA-20P only)  
13 = common lobby ________________________________________ (VISTA-20P only)  
Once a custom word is entered in any of these word locations (11-13),

System Communication and Operation  
Panel Communication with Central Station  
This system accommodates several formats for reporting alarms and other system conditions to the Central  
Station. The process of a successful transmission consists of both the method of communication between the  
control panel and the Central Station receiver; and the actual way the information is sent and displayed at  
the Central Station.  
When the panel calls the Central Station receiver, it waits to hear a “handshake” frequency from the receiver  
to confirm that the receiver is on-line and ready to receive its message. Once the panel hears the handshake  
it is programmed to listen for, it sends its message. The panel then waits for a “kissoff” frequency from the  
receiver acknowledging that the message was received and understood.  
If the handshake frequency is not given or is not understood by the panel, the panel will not send its  
message. Once the handshake frequency is received and understood by the panel, the panel sends its  
message. If there is an error in the transmission (the receiver does not receive a “valid” message), the kissoff  
frequency is not given by the Central Station receiver.  
The panel makes a total of eight attempts to the primary telephone number and eight attempts to the  
secondary telephone number (if programmed) to get a valid message through. If the panel is not successful  
after its numerous attempts, the keypad displays COMM. FAILURE (on alpha keypads) or FC (on fixed-

indicates a wireless keypad). If the battery is not replaced within 30 days, a  
“CHECK” display may occur.  
NOTE: Some wireless sensors contain a non-replaceable long-life battery which  
requires replacement of the entire unit at the end of battery life (e.g., Nos.  
5802, 5802CP).  
Telephone Line Failure, indicates that a monitored telephone line (if  
programmed in field *92) has been cut or disconnected. Depending on how the  
system was programmed, the keypad may also produce a trouble sound, and  
the external sounder may be activated. Silence by entering installer code +

Testing the System  
About Test Procedures  
After the installation is complete, you should perform the following tests:  
System Test:  
Dialer Test:  
Go/No Go Test:  
Checks that all zones have been installed properly and the system responds to faults.  
Checks that the phone connection to the central station is working properly.  
Checks that transmissions can be received from transmitters. Should be performed  
before permanently mounting transmitters.  
RF Sniffer Mode: Checks that RF transmitter serial numbers have been properly enrolled.  
Battery Tests:  
Automatic battery tests are performed by the system.  
System Test  
With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact (not faulted). Doors and windows  
with contacts should be closed, PIRs should be covered (use a cloth to mask them temporarily if necessary).  
If a “NOT READY” message is displayed, press [] to display the faulted zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s) if  
necessary, so that the “READY” message is displayed.  
1. Enter Installer Code + 5 [TEST] , then press “0” at the prompt to start Walk Test mode.  
1=DIAL, 0=WALK  
(no special display on Fixed-Word keypads)  
The following will be displayed and a Contact ID report will be sent (code 607):  
TEST IN PROGRESS  
(dddisplayed on Fixed-Word Display Keypads)  
2. Upon entering the system test mode, the outside sounder should sound for 1 second.  
If the backup battery is discharged or missing, the sounder may not turn on and a “LOW BATTERY”  
report will be transmitted with a “TEST” report.  
The keypad will beep about every 40 seconds as a reminder that the system is in the Test mode.  
NOTE: Wireless motion detectors (Passive Infrared units) will send signals out only if they have been  
inactive for 3 minutes (conserves battery life).  
3. Test all sensors using the procedure described in the User’s Guide “Testing the System” section.  
4. After checking sensors, turn off the test mode by entering installer code + OFF.  
NOTE: Test mode automatically ends after 4 hours. During the final 5 minutes (after 3 hours 55  
minutes of Test mode), the keypad emits a double-beep every 30 seconds to alert that the end of Test  
mode is nearing.  
Checking Transmitter Enrollment (Sniffer Mode)  
Use this mode to verify that all transmitters have been properly programmed. Make sure both partitions  
are disarmed before trying to enter this mode, since this is a system-wide command.  
1. Press [Installer code] + [#] + 3.  
NOTE: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the central station, the system will  
not go into the Sniffer mode. If so, wait a few minutes, and try again.  
The keypads in both partitions will display all zone numbers of wireless units (in both  
partitions) programmed into the system. Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to  
send a signal. As the system receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone number of  
that transmitter disappears from the display.  
2. After all transmitters have been checked, exit the sniffer mode by keying [Installer code] + OFF.  
IMPORTANT: Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit Sniffer mode (by  
entering [Installer code] + OFF) to return to normal operation.

Installation and Setup Guide  
NOTES: All BR type units must physically be activated to clear the display.  
When one button of a transmitter (RF, UR, or BR) is activated, all zones assigned to other  
buttons on that transmitter are cleared from the display. This also applies to 5816 and  
5817 transmitters, which have multiple loops (zones).  
Any transmitter that is not “enrolled” will not turn off its zone number.  
Go/No Go Test Mode  
The Go/No Go Test verifies adequate RF signal strength from the proposed transmitter location, and allow  
you to reorient or relocate transmitters if necessary, before mounting the transmitters permanently. This  
mode is similar to the Transmitter Test mode, except that the wireless receiver gain is reduced. This will  
enable you to make sure that the RF signal from each transmitter is received with sufficient signal  
amplitude when the system is in the normal operating mode.  
1. Enter [Installer code] + [#] + 4 from the partition being tested. For multi-partition systems, repeat this  
test for each partition.  
2. After you have placed transmitters in their desired locations and the approximate length of wire to be  
run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw terminals (if used), fault each transmitter. Do not  
conduct this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter, as this will cause inaccurate results.  
a. The keypad will beep three times to indicate signal reception and display the zone number.  
b. If the keypad does not beep, you should reorient or move the transmitter to another location.  
Usually a few inches in either direction is all that is required.  
4. If each transmitter produces the proper keypad response when it is faulted, you can then permanently  
mount each of the transmitters according to the instructions provided with them.  
5. Exit the Go/No Go Test mode by entering: [any user code (partition-specific)] + OFF.  
Dialer Communication Test and Periodic Test Reports  
1. Enter Installer Code + 5 [TEST], then press “1” at the prompt to start the Dialer Test.  
1=DIAL, 0=WALK  
(no special display on Fixed-Word keypads)  
The following will be displayed (accompanied by 2 beeps) if test is successful:  
PHONE OKAY  
(Cddisplayed on Fixed-Word Display Keypads)  
A Contact ID report will also be sent (code 601)  
If the dialer test is unsuccessful, “COMM FAILURE” (or FC) is displayed.  
2. Enter Installer code + OFF to clear the display and exit.  
Automatic Periodic Test Report  
The system can be set to automatically send test reports (enabled in field *64; Contact ID code 602) at  
specified intervals. Frequency of the reports is set in Scheduling mode (event 11) or by the following key  
commands: installer code + [#] + 0 + 0 = test report sent every 24 hours  
installer code + [#] + 0 + 1 = test report sent once per week  
installer code + [#] + 0 + 2 = test report sent every 28 days  
Each mode sets schedule 32 (VISTA-20P) or schedule 08 (VISTA-15P) to the selected repeat option; the first  
test report is sent 12 hours after command.  
To ensure that test reports are sent at the times expected, set the Real-Time Clock to the proper time  
before entering the test report schedule command.  
Automatic Standby Battery Tests  
1. An automatic test is conducted every 3 minutes to ensure that a standby battery is present and  
properly connected. If a battery is not present or is not properly connected, a “LOW BATTERY”  
message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central station.  
2. A battery capacity test is automatically conducted for 2 minutes every 4 hours, beginning 4 hours after  
exiting the Programming mode or after powering up the system. In addition, entry into the Test mode  
will also cause a battery capacity test to be initiated. If the battery cannot sustain a load, a “Low  
Battery” message is displayed and, if so programmed, will be reported to the central station.

Limitations and Warranty  
WARNING  
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM  
While this System is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against  
burglary, fire or other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to  
compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:  
• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an  
alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.  
• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will  
not work without power. Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if  
the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply  
is cut off for any reason, however briefly.  
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm  
receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a  
metal object is moved into the path.  
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.  
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they  
may not activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according  
to data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors  
used in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been  
improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke cannot  
reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke  
detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for  
example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No  
smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about  
fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas,  
improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or  
arson. Depending on the nature of the fire and/or location of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it  
operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to  
prevent injury or death.  
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in  
their installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do  
create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by  
those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed  
doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of  
any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability.  
Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of the  
protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F (32° to 40°C), the detection performance  
can decrease.  
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are  
located on the other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices are located on a different level of  
the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms.  
Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo,  
radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however  
loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people.  
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be  
out of service or temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated  
intruders.  
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time  
to protect themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities  
may not respond appropriately.  
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment  
is designed to last as long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

Installation and Setup Guide  
WARNING  
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM  
(Continued)  
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate  
maintenance. This alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are  
working properly. The security keypad (and remote keypad) should be tested as well.  
Wireless transmitters (used in some systems) are designed to provide long battery life under normal operating  
conditions. Longevity of batteries may be as much as 4 to 7 years, depending on the environment, usage, and  
the specific wireless device being used. External factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as  
large swings in temperature, may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. This wireless  
system, however, can identify a true low-battery situation, thus allowing time to arrange a change of battery  
to maintain protection for that given point within the system.  
Installing an alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance rate, but an alarm system is  
not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in  
protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives and property.  
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and  
their loved ones to learn about these developments.

LIMITED WARRANTY  
Honeywell International Inc., acting through its Security & Custom Electronics business ("Seller") 165 Eileen Way,  
Syosset, New York 11791, warrants its product(s) to be in conformance with its own plans and specifications and to be  
free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for 24 months from the date stamp  
control on the product(s) or, for product(s) not having a manufacturer’s date stamp, for 12 months from date of original  
purchase unless the installation instructions or catalog sets forth a shorter period, in which case the shorter period  
shall apply. Seller's obligation shall be limited to repairing or replacing, at its option, free of charge for materials or  
labor, any product(s) which is proved not in compliance with Seller's specifications or proves defective in materials or  
workmanship under normal use and service. Seller shall have no obligation under this Limited Warranty or otherwise  
if the product(s) is altered or improperly repaired or serviced by anyone other than Honeywell factory service.  
Connection of any device(s) to a communicating bus of a Honeywell security system (e.g., keypad bus, polling loop)  
other than those manufactured or approved by Honeywell shall void this warranty. For warranty service, return  
product(s) transportation prepaid, to Honeywell Factory Service, 165 Eileen Way, Syosset, New York 11791.  
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF. IN NO CASE SHALL  
SELLER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR  
ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR UPON ANY OTHER BASIS OF LIABILITY WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF  
THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER'S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.  
Seller does not represent that the product(s) it sells may not be compromised or circumvented; that the product(s) will  
prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or that the product(s) will in all  
cases provide adequate warning or protection. Customer understands that a properly installed and maintained alarm  
system may only reduce the risk of a burglary, robbery, fire, or other events occurring without providing an alarm, but  
it is not insurance or a guarantee that such will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a  
result. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY  
DAMAGE OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THAT THE PRODUCT(S) FAILED TO GIVE WARNING.  
HOWEVER, IF SELLER IS HELD LIABLE, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY LOSS OR  
DAMAGE ARISING UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE OR  
ORIGIN, SELLER'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF  
THE PRODUCT(S), WHICH SHALL BE THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER.  
This warranty replaces any previous warranties and is the only warranty made by Seller on this product(s). No  
increase or alteration, written or verbal, of the obligations of this Limited Warranty is authorized.
