6EIERAL IEcoRIuTION:
The No. 4150 Control/Communicator is a microcomputer based product which
conveniently and economically combines the control panel and digital comnun-
icator into one package. This commercial-residential system provides
every important feature required for a UL certified household fire/burglary
alarm installation.
A typical system installation includes a No. 4150 C-CDM and up to four
No. 4155 Remote. Keypads.
The MD. 4150 C-CON monitors all inputs and generates appropriate output
signals for interior and exterior audible warning as well as for remote
communication to a central alarm monitoring service.
The RD.
4155 Remote Keypad(s) provide full system and individual zone
status indication as well,as system control. 'With the No. 4155, the system
may be completely armed or just perimeter armed or disarmed. The entry
delay may be turned off, zones may be shunted by forced arming, and user
security codes may be changed. Two types of emergency alarms may be triggered
(fire, silent or audible emergency). A built-in speaker provides audible
trouble and annunciator functions.

f-7
3. Burglary Zone
Entry/Exit - Controlled operation with alarm on open or short
during armed mode. Always has both entry and exit delay.
Perimeter 81 - Controlled operation with alarm on open or short
during armed mode. Activated by open (N-0.) or closed (N-C.)
circuit contacts.
Perimeter 12 - Controlled operation with alarm on open during
armed period. Activated by closed circuit (N.C.) contacts.
Interior - Controlled operation with alarm on open or short
during armed mode. Always has exit delay. Has entry delay r‘\
only if initial entry is through the Entry/Exit zone.
C. system options
The system can. be configured in a number of ways. This allows the user
to customize the system for his own particular needs. Before actually
making the choices which affect how the system operates (See Section V
PROMProgramning), it is important to understand the options. The discussion
that follows broadly divides those options into two categories: control
options and communicator options.
&mrol Options:
1.
Entry Delay, Exit Delay
The entry delay is the time between entering the premises and when
the
system must be disarmed to avoid activating an alarm. The exit
delay is the time between arming.the system and when the premises
must be exited to avoid activating an alarm. The entry and exit
delays may be independently PROM selected to be between 0 and 120
seconds in 8 second increments.

2. camunicatot Delay
The system may be set up to delay the triggering of the communicator
for burglary alarms by 15 seconds. This feature may be used to reduce
false alarms due to user errors. See Communicator Options section
for comments on open/ciose and trouble report communicator delays.
3. Bell/Siren Tireout
Bell/Siren audible indication may be PROMselected to last between
0 and 15 minutes in 1 minute increments, after which it "timesout".
The fire zone may be optionally selected to have its alarms not timeout,
wherein manual shutdown would be required to silence a fire alarm.
4. Panic zone option
The Panic Zone may be configured as a silent or
audible zone by PROM
selection.
5. hwglary zones
option
The burglary zones may be configured for si
by PROMselection for all of the burglary zones ible alarmlent or aud
as a group.
6. Security Code
This 4 digit code restricts the use of the system to only those who
know the code. Any digits, including repetitions, may be chosen.
There are three such codes ,(not including the duress code described
below). One is PROM programmed at installation and the other codes
are user changeable from a keypad at any time,
using the master code
to enable the change.
7. Duress code
The duress code is a separate security code.
Its purpose is to allow
someone to initiate a silent panic condition but still give the impression
that the control is working normally. For example, if one code is
1234 and the duress code is 1235, entering 1234 will cause the system
to disarm, but entering 1235 (assuming one is in a hostage situation)
will cause the system to disarm, but will also trigger the comnunicator
to send a silent panic message.
RUfE:
If the user of the system inadvertently programs a duress code
that is the same as the master code, the duress silent panic
capability is suppressed to avoid the transmission of false
alarms to the central alarm monitoring service.
8. Forced AmIng
Forced arming allows a user to arm the system even though certain
burglary zones are in a faulted condition. Such faulted zones will
be shunted by depressing BYPASS to override the fail safe arming
during the arming sequence.

Coumnicator Options:
1.
Comuni cator Enables
The system may be PROMprogramed to transmit any combination of the following
messages:
f---Y
a) Open/Close Reports
A closi'ng report, if PROM enabled, will be sent whenever the system
is completely armed or just perimeter armed (i.e.: STAY mode operation)
The communicator delay for closing reports is fixed at 15 seconds.
The system may be disarmed during this period without either closing
or opening reports being sent to the central station.
b) Extended Reports
If PROM enabled, the system will report additional information to
the central station. This information includes:
(1) Zone identification associated with transmission of a Restore.
(2) User identification at the time of closing
and opening.
. Use of: secondary security
code #l is identified by "1"
secondary security code .#2 is identified by "2"
master security code is identified by "4"
(3) The act of force arming (one of the burglary zones is violated
and fail safe arming is overridden to automatically shunt that
violated zone) the system is indicatea in extended closing.reports
by an offset of 4 added to each of the above cited user ID codes.
For example, the closing report will be accompanied by a user
IO of "5" if seconaary security code #l is used, "6" if secondary
security code #2 is used, or "8" if the master security code
is used.
cl
Fire Trouble Reports
The system will transmit a trouble report, if PROMenabled, whenever .
a trouble condition is sensed in the fire tone and has been present
for at least one minute. When the trouble condition has
restored,
and remained restored for 15 minutes, a restore message will be sent.
4 Cancel Report
If PROM enabled, the cancel report will be sent if a burglary alarm
is turned off (cancelled) before the bell/siren times out. If opening
reporting is enabled, the cancel report will be followed by an opening
report. Cancel reporting
does not apply for fire or panic alarms.
However, an opening report will be sent (if PROMenabled), when fire
and panic alarms are turned off prior to the system bring armed.

Duress Report
n
L.
ab
3.
A duress report, if PROM enabled, will be sent whenever the system
is armed or disarmed using secondary security code #3. This system
code is reserved for duress alarm activation and cannot be used to
force arm the system.
MITE:
Duress reports are not accompanied by either opening or
closing reports.
f) Test Report
As de1 i vered,
the system has the capability to transmit a manually
initiated (CMIUD + "5" keys) Test report to the central station if
the reporting code for Test is PROM programmed. If it
1s desirrd
to send the Test report automatically, as a means to verify that
the communications link between the protected premises and the central
station is operative, a second PROMoption is offerred - 24 hour
test. With this option
selected, the system initiates a Test message
call every 24 hours, starting from the time of installation. This
option goes into effect at installation time if PROM enabled and
if first test report is manually initiated. If any other transmission
was sent by the system during the prior 24 hour
period (e.g. open
and closing reports), the Test message report is
not sent.
Report to Secondary, (Primary) Phone hder Al so
The system allows for the various communicator reports to be divided between
two central stations (or two receivers). This is
done in some situations
where, for example, all alarms may
be routed to a Primary alarm receiver
while non-critical items, such as troubles or opening
and closing reports,
might be routed to a secondary receiver.
. Primary Phone Number Assignment
Fire, Duress/Panic, Burglary' (E/E, Perimeter #I and p2, Interior),
Cancel
.
Secondary Phone Number Assignment
Open, Close, Restore, Low Battery, Fire Trouble, Test
It is possible to PROMselect, by specific report, which reports are desired
to be sent to the other phone number too (e.g. Restore).
CamlInicatm code Assignment
Each alarm zone in the system may be assigned its own comnunicator code.
How the zones are assigned to
COdeS affects the reports that will be sent.
As an example, each zone
could be given a different communicator code
for unique zone reporting. Or the zones could be
grouped by function
with duress/silent panic (common reporting code) zones as Code 1, the
fire zone as Code 2, and the burglary zones
as Code 3 (this Would allow
the system to be compatible with an existing central station alarm code
scheme).

D. 2Om RESTORE
Once a zone is faulted, it will be re-enabled for local alarm sounding
at timeout or whenever it becomes intact, whichever is later. It will
be re-enabled for central station reporting only after it has remained
intact for at least 15 minutes. A restore message will be sent, if PROM
enabled, to the central station at this time.
NOTE:
If two or more zones are PROMassigned the same alarm reporting
code, then multiple restores using this code will be transmitted.
The 15 minute communicator disable is intended to prevent annoyance calls
to the central station for swinging zones.
Entering the security code subsequent to an alarm trip (i.e. to disarm
system and/or turn off external sounder) will disable restore reporting
for all zones. Central station reporting for fire and panic alarms will
be re-enabled 15 minutes after security code is entered to silence these
types of alarms (provided that zone is not faulted during 15 minute period).

A. Keypad and LEDs:
Keys O-9: These are used to enter the arm/disarm security code(s)
and the duress code. :'-
‘\, .'
i
STAY Key and LED (Yellow): When depressed subsequent to depression
of the CMND Key in the disarmed state , shunts the interior burglary
zone. The STAY LED is lit then and remains lit when the system is
armed. This LED also has a secondary designation
as the INT(erior)
LED. When the CMND key is held depressed in the disarmed state,
this LED indicates,the state of the INTERIOR Zone, providing current
violation status (on steady) as well as memory of alarm (flashing).
The latter is not cleared until the system is next armed.
POWERLED(6reen): This LED indicates the presence of AC power to
operate the system. This LED will immediately flash when AC power
is lost and the system is operating from its standby battery.
BYPASS KEY: When depressed subsequent to entry of the security code
and the CMNDkey, the burglary system will arm with any faulted burglary
zones shunted. Refer to the section entitled "INSTALLATION AN) WIRING"
for comnents concerning the bypass of the second perimeter zone.
The TROUBLE LED is lit when one or more zones is shunted by force
arming. All shunts are automatically removed when the system is
turned off.
INSTANT Key and LED (Yellow): When depressed subsequent to entry
of the security
code and the CMND key,
the burglary system will arm
with the entry delay disabled on the entry/exit and interior zones,

making them instant alarm zones for subsequent entry. The INSTANT
LED is lit when the system is in this mode. The entry delay for
these zones is restored subsequent to
the system being turned off.
This LED also has a secondary designation as the PER(imeter #l) LED.
When the CMNDKey is: held depressed in the
disarmed state, this LED
indicates the state of the first PERIMETER Zone, providing current
violation status (on steady) as well as memory of alarm (flashing).
The latter is not cleared until the system is next armed.
PRGRMKey : When depressed 'prior to entry of the master security
code, will permit the imnediate (within 10 seconds after master code
entry) entry of a code designation (1, 2, or 3) and a secondary user
changeable 4 digit security
code. The code designation of 3 is Ufed
for entry of the duress code; The duress code permits the performance
of all of the functions of the master
code except force arming and
secondary code change. The other secondary codes permit the performance
of all of the functions permitted by the PRUMprogrammea master code
except secondary
code change. Repeating digits are permitted, in
code entries.
CHIHE Key and LED (Yellow): When depressed subsequent to depression
of the CMND Key during the disarmed state, will cause entry to a
mode where any fault in the Entry/Exit Burglary Zone will cause a
brief
lOLid tone to be heard at each remote keypad. The mode can
be left by subsequent redepression of the CMNDand CHIME keys. The
CHlME LED is lit whenev.er the CHIME mode is in effect. The CHIME
mode is in effect during the armed state but is not heard because
the entry delay warning sound overrides the other sound. This LED
also has a secondary designation as the DEL(ay) LED. When the CMND
key is held depressed in the disarmed state, this LED indicates the
state of the Entry/Exit DELAY Zone, providing current violation status
(on steady) as well as memory of alarm (flashing). The latter is
not cleared until the system is next armed.
READY LED (6ree!n): The READYLED is lit whenever all zones are intact
(ready for arming) ouring the disarmed state.
It is off whenever
a zone fault is present. This LED flashes as a memoryof alarm indication
(along with the ARM LED) in the
armed state for audible aldrms.
This memory of alarm indication is removed by entry of the security
code. This LEDalso has a secondary designation as the second PERIMETER
ZONE LED. When the CMNDkey is held depressed in the disarmed state,
this LED indicates the state of the second Perimeter Zone,
providing
current violation status (on steady) , as well as memory of aldrm
(flashing). The latter is not
cleared until the system is next armed.
FIRE and FIRE Keys: Simultaneous depression of both keys causes
manual activation of the fire alarm.
EMERGand EHERG’Keys: Simultaneous depression of
both keys causes
manual activation of a Panic Zone alarm (audible or silent as a function
of zone programming).
TROUBLE LED (RED): If one or more of the following conaitions has
occurred, the TROUBLELED will be lit steadily and an auoible trouble
signal (short beep) will be heard every 15 seconds:
627-8 647
www.PDF-Zoo.com
firealarmresources.com

(1) An open circuit occurs in the fire zone.
(2) The burglary system has been force armed with one or more zones
shunted.
(3) A security code is entered subsequent to a fire or panic zone
violation and the'zone is still violated.
If one or more of the following conditions has occurred, the TROUBLE
LED will flash and no audible trouble signal will be heard:
(1) The fire circuit fails to reset following the silencing of,a
fire alarm using the FIRE TEST/RESET command (see below).
(2) The fire zone remains faultea after the fire alarm has'timed
out (if time out is PROMenabled).
(3) The audible trouble signal is silenced using the FIRE TEST/RESET
conmiand (see below).
The TROUBLE LED will turn off as soon as the condition that caused
it to be lit is eliminated.
FIRE TEST/RESET Key : 1,f neither a fire alarm or trouble condition
exists, aeprrssion of this key
subsequent to depression of the CM&D
key will cause a fire test to be performed. AC derived power is
automatically turned off (POWER LED will flash) so that the alarm
sounder is powered for a 2
second test from the standby battery.
During the test, the TROUBLELED will flash for 5 seconds. If TROUBLE
LED flashes but alarm sounder fails to
Sound, battery must be checked
as it may be disconnected or may not be fully charged.
If there is trouble on the fire or the panic zones or if the burglary
system had been force
armed,
the TROUBLELED will be 1 it and a short
beep will be heard every 15 seconds. Depression of the CMND and
FIRE TEST/RESET keys will silence the beep dnd cause the TROUBLE
LED to flash for 24 hours or until the trouble condition is removed,
whichever occurs sooner. If the condition remains after 24 hours,
the LED will light steadily again, accompanied by the audible trouble
beep.
If there is a fire alarm present,
depression of the CrlND ana FIRE
TEST/RESET keys
will silence the alarm dnd reset the fire circuit.
The TROUBLE LED will flash.while the fire circuit is being reset.
If the flashing indication does not turn off within 10 seconds, the
fire circuit has failed to reset. The ARM
and READYLEDs will flash
ds memory of alarm indications until a security code is entered.
4 (INSTAUER TEST) Key: Depression of this key subsequent to depression
of the CMNDkey during the
disarmed state will place the burglary
system into an
Installer Test mode. Any violation of a burglary
zone will cdusr the aldrm sounder to activate briefly. While the
system is in this mode, depression of any key will terminate the
mode.
5 (~~HMJHICATOR TEST) Key: Depression of this key subsequent to
depression of the CMNUkey at any time will cause a test report to
be made to the central alarm monitoring service (assuming that the
Test Report was PROMenabled).

ARW LED (Red): The ARM LED is lit whenever the burglary system is
either completely armed or just perimeter armed (i.e. STAYmode opera-
tion). This LED flashes as a memory of alarm
indication (applies
only for audible alarms). The ARM LED also flashes after arming
during the exit delay period.
It is off when the system is disarmed
except as a memory of alarm indication for fire or audible panic.
