  1. Set Device Address to “00” (set all switches to the right, “off” position).

  1. Mount the receiver, noting that the RF receiver can detect signals from transmitters within a nominal range of 200 feet.

  1. Connect the receiver's wire harness to the control's keypad terminals. Plug the connector at the other end of the harness into the receiver. Refer to the installation Instructions provided with the receiver for further installation procedures regarding antenna mounting, etc. 

WIRELESS ZONE NUMBERS

VISTA-20P:

- transmitter zones 9-48

- button zones 49-64

VISTA-15P:

-transmitter zones 9-34

-button zones 49-56

Notes:

Set the following options:

 *22 RF Jam Option†

 *24 RF House ID Code (if using wireless keypads) for each partition

 *67 Transmitter Low Battery Report Code†

  •  The receiver is supervised and a trouble report is sent (“CHECK 100” displayed) if communication between the panel and receiver is interrupted, or if no valid RF signals from at least one supervised transmitter are received within 12 hours. If the receiver is mounted remotely:

  •  Place the RF receiver in a high, centrally located area for best reception.

  •  Do not locate the receiver or transmitters on or near metal objects. This will decrease range and/or block transmissions.

  •  Do not locate the RF receiver in an area of high RF interference (indicated by frequent or prolonged lighting of the LED in the receiver; random flicker is OK).

  •  Do not locate RF receiver closer than 10 feet from any keypads to avoid interference

from the microprocessors in those units.

† These fields must be enabled for Residential Fire, UL Residential Burglar Alarm, and UL Commercial Burglar Alarm installations.
