Monitoring
Alarm and status messages are transmitted to the master station network via radio
signals, which means faster and more secure reporting.
The entire radio link equipment, including intertace, transmitter, power supply, battery
and antenna, is housed in asingle unit, requiring only battery charging power and alarm
inputs from acompatible alarm panel.
The 7720V2 can monitor alarm inputs, discrete 4zone contact closures or their
electrical equivalent.
The 7720V2 is compatible with existing installations using ADEMCO equipment or
other control panels. The 7720V2 can be used in conjunction with digital
communicators on the same system, each acting as backup to the another (use an
ADEMCO 659-EN Line Monitor connected to azone input to report aline cut and
backup adigital dialer, while connecting the radio fault output to azone on the dialer).
Three LEDs are used to indicate message transmissions, low battery conditions and
radio faults. Ablinking yellow LED indicates normal operation. (See LED Table later in
this section).
For added protection, built-in cover tamper switches can trigger an alarm whenever the
chassis cover is removed, thus protecting against unauthorized access to the 7720V2.
The tamper zone number is an internal system zone number (zones 5-8 can be chosen)
and must be programmed to enable tamper reporting.
The 7720V2 can use either the supplied omni-directional wire antenna, or can use a
7825 outdoor antenna, 7625 omni-directional antenna, 7625-dB antenna (if additional
gain is required), a7674, a7674-13 YAGI antenna (if directional antenna is required), by
using the optional 7720ANT connector kit. For wall mounting, an optional 7825DP can
be used. The supplied antenna mounts directly to the 7720V2. The other antennas
can be mounted remotely (if desired) using pre-assembled coaxial cable available from
ADEMCO. Refer to the ANTENNA MOUNTING section for details.
The 7720V2 utilizes EEROM (Electrically Erasable ROM) technology, which allows the
7720V2 to be programmed with a7720P Programming Tool. The programming options
include channel assignments for Telco fault input, inverted trigger inputs, delayed
reporting channels (1-127 seconds delay, if selected; no delay (delay =00) is allowed
for UL installations), open/close/restore reporting channels, etc.
Malfunctions of the transmitter, including antenna fault, low output power, loss of
external p’ower, low internal DC voltage and internal radio-frequency circuit problems
can be displayed on the 7720P Programming Tool, as well as being transmitted to the
master station network, if the fault does not prevent such transmission. Faults can also
trigger contact closures on a Form “C” relay to indicate radio faults.
The 7720V2 is powered by its own 12 volt battery, which can be charged by an alarm
panel’s output voltage (9.5-14.8VDC as measured between pins 1&2 on the radio).
The charging input draws approximately 10OmA continuous and 275mA peak current
during transmission. If other peripherals are connected to the control panel, make sure
the auxiliary charging voltage is calculated and verified with all peripheral at full peak
current draw.
NOTE: The 7720V2TR Power-Pack can be used if there is insufficient
charging voltage from the panel.
The 7720V2 notifies the central station of alow battery condition whenever the battery
voltage drops below 10.2VDC (+ 5?4.).Low battery restore messages are reported if
battery has been in “good” condition for at least 4hours. Refer to the LOW BAITERY
DETECTION AND RESTORAL section for details on battery monitoring.

Low Battery
Shutdown The 7720V2 automatically shuts down if battery voltage drops below 9.45VDC volts,
and ALL LEDs WILL BE OFF. When the charging voltage is present and the battery
voltage rises above the 9.45VDC shutdown point, the 7720V2 will enter aBAITERY
CHARGING MODE and the RED LED will flash once per second. This mode continues
until the battery is sufficiently charged to support alarm conditions. During the
charging cycle, the 7720V2 will not transmit any messages. The 7720V2
will resume normal operation after the battery is fully charged.
General Operation
Alarm Processing The 7720V2 receives alarm and restore sianals from the alarm control r)anel and
LED Indications
converts these signals to radio messages which are transmitted to the master station
network, which in turn relays the messages to the central station. The 7720V2 can
monitor 4traditional zone inputs. The first two zones may be configured by jumper to
activate on either Ovolts or activate on 4.5-14.2VDC; zones 3 and 4 are hard-wired to
activate on 4.5-14.2VDC. Zones 1-4 can also be programmed to invert their input
signals.
Upon detecting an alarm or restoral, the 7720V2 transmits the message to the master
station network. The transmissions repeat for approximately 6minutes (total of 60
messages) to ensure that the alarm or other report will be received by the central
monitoring station.
The 7720V2 periodically transmits supervisory status messages to the AlarmNet
network. Radio faults that are indicated during the status messages may prevent
communication; to prevent this, the fault output can be programmed to also indicate
radio faults (programming the fault output is explained later in this chapter). If no
messages are received during the supervisory window, the network generates a
communication failure signal to the central station.
Abuilt-in radio fault contact closure can be used to locally indicate radio faults; this can
be either normally open or normally closed. In addition, it can be selected to be “fail-
safe” by programming the fault output to be inverted (i.e. the relay is powered unless
there is afault). The radio fault output is labeled TB1-10 and TB1-11 on the terminal
strip, These terminals float with reference to the rest of the circuit.
The 7720V2 also provides status information via its serial port, thus allowing radio status
to be displayed on command, using either a7720P Programming Tool of acomputer
terminal. Refer to the TESTING THE 7720V2 section for information regarding the “S”
command and status messages.

upon Exiting
Charging Mode
The radio tests the condition of the baflery during every transmission. If the battery
voltage is low during four consecutive transmissions, yet transmission power is not
impaired, alow battery warning message will be transmitted. As long as the transmission
power has not been significantly derated, the radio will resume normal operation.
The low battery warning will be restored orIly after the radio has found the battery to be
good during four consecutive transmission and aminimum of four hours have elapsed
since the radio first detected the battery in the restoral state.
Battery Charging Mode is entered upon either of two conditions:
1. On Power Up, the radio tests the battery to determine whether atransmission can
be supported. If the battery fails this initial test, the radio enters Battery Charging
Mode.
NOTE: Due to this feature the battery must be plugged in before applying
charging voltage during initial power up to the 7720V2 to prevent it
from entering charging mode.
2. During radio transmission, the battery is tested by the 7720V2. If the battery is
unable to support atransmission the radio enters Battery Charging mode.
Upon entering the battery charging mode, the fault relay is tripped, indicating that the
radio is inactive. During the Battery Charging Mode, the Red LED will flash once
per second, the Green and Yellow LED’s remain off.
In Charging Mode, the radio is in an idle state for aminimum of fifteen minutes. At the
end of afifteen minute cycle time, the radio performs aseries of tests on the battery. If
all these tests pass, the radio will resume normal operation. If any of these tests fail, the
radio will remain idle while it repeats the tests every fifteen minutes until passing.
While in charging mode, the radio will continue to monitor the serial port. The radio will
respond only to areset command from the 7720P (Shift -X). Any other command will
result in adisplay of “BAT CHG” on the 7720P.
Upon exiting the charging mode, the radio will reset the fault relay (if it was latched).
If the radio entered charging mode on power up or during the power on reset
transmission cycle, the normal power on reset message will be transmitted when
charging mode is exited.
If the radio entered charging mode during normal operation, amessage indicating a
restore of the battery as well as a“restore” of the power on reset (message type 6with a
3in both the power on reset position and the battery status position) till be transmitted.
This is aunique message which will only be sent on exiting the charging mode (e.g.,
5353555 6)
The status of the zones is cleared upon entering the charging mode and is not
monitored while in charging mode. Therefore, the only alarm information on any of the
zones will be that which is currently on the zone inputs at the time of exiting charging
mode (no stale/pending alarms will be sent).
If azone is currently in alarm, that alarm will be sent after half of the power on reset
sequence is transmitted. -

Refer to the diagram below when setting jumpers.
If using zone input connections, set the J2 jumper so that zone 1&2inputs are
activated either with aground or with apositive voltage, whichever is required.
If the trigger level is set for positive voltage, +4.5 to +14.2 volts must be applied to
zones 1&2to trigger an alarm. If the zone is connected to anormally high voitage
trigger (i.e. goes iow on alarm), invert this zone when programming (programming
questions 12 &13).
if ground is selected, zones 1&2are internality puiied up to 5voits through a10k ohm
resistor. This voitage shouid normaiiy be puiied down (ciosed contact to ground) and
released for aiarrn (opening the contact). If anormaiiy open contact is being used, invert
this zone when programming (programming questions 12 &13).
The radio fauit output reiay may be programmed for either FAIL-SAFE mode (reiay
aiways energized) or LOW CURRENT mode (reiay normaily de-energized) by seiecting
Yes or No to programming question 26: FLT REL ON (Y/N). In addition, the reiay can be
set for either N.O. or N.C. operation (in either fail-safe or low current modes) using the
J1 jumper.
When faii-safe mode is seiected, the relay wili change states (and trigger adialer, if
connected) in the event of power ioss. Note that fail-safe mode increases the standby
current by about 10mA, which results in lower battery backup time (about 15Yo)in the
event of power ioss. Set the J1 jumper to position Aor position B, as foiiows:

Antenna Mounting
Selecting A
Location
If Non UL installation, an antenna location which has reliable communications with
at least one base station with an uplink signal strength reading of “3” or greater may be
used .
NOTE: Place acheck mark [W] in the “Single Site Supervision” box on
the Subscriber Contract.
For UL Grade “A” or Grade “B” installations, find an antenna location which has
reliable communication to at least two AlarmNet Base Stations with aminimum uplink
signal strength reading of “3.
After determining the type of installation required (UL, Non UL )find an
antenna location within the premises. Locations can be found by utilizing the test mode
of the 7720V2 (see TESTING THE 7720V2 section), the 7915 or 7715 FAST Tool, or
the 7920 series transceiver.
Notes On Antenna 1.

2.
Optimum RF performance can usually be found at the highest point within a
building, with the fewest number of walls between the radio and the outside of the
premises.
Avoid mounting the antenna near other electronic devices. The following table
provides minim~m distances. Highest RF energy is in the direct, horizontal-line of
the antenna. Therefore, vertical separation (moving electronic devices either higher
or lower on wall) provides ahigher level of isolation from the radio.

To implement aFire/Burg. detection at the radio, connect the driver output directly to tw
zones on the 7720V2. Program the Fire zone as apulsed zone and the Burglary Zone as ~
delayed Zone (this is to prevent this zone from reporting an alarm when the pulsed signals
are detected). The number of pulses and the length of delay will be dependent on the
particular panel or siren driver being used and is therefore aprogrammable feature.
Note: Zones programmed for pulse cannot be designated as open/close or telco zones;
an invalid entry message will occur, since the pulse zone takes priority over open/close and
telco programmed zones.

Restoral Reporthg
Zone Selection Restoral reporting can be enabled, disabled or delayed. The delay option delays
restoral reporting for about 1.5 minutes after the actual restore condition, which helps
ensure that alarm messages reach the central station before the restore message. Note
that if restores are enabled for adelayed zone, the restore condition must exist for at
least 2.5 seconds (this is intended to prevent swinger conditions). If any of the zones
have been programmed for pulse operation, then, following the Restoral question, the
7720P will display “REST ON CHG (Y/N)”. This feature is used for zones connected to
the bell output of apanel, and when enabled (Y) will report the zone in restoral when the
pulse train stops and a steady state level, either high or low, is left on the zone input or
when the steady state level starts pulsing. If this feature is not enabled (N), the zone will
only restore on a steady state low logic level.
UL NOTE: For UL installations, restorals must not be disabled.

Post Installation Checklist is intended for installers who want to get the 7720V2 up and running quickly.
To take full advantage of the many installation features of 7720V2, we strongly suggest you take afew moments
and read the programming section.
DC Charging Voltage Make sure that there is sufficient power to charge and support the current
draw of the 7720V2 (9.5 VDC Minimum, 14.8VDC maximum, 10OmAnormal
standby, 275mA maximum).
Note: Additional peripherals connected to the control may lower available
current for the radio and affect the battery current draw level. The auxiliary
voltage charging capability must be calculated and verified with all peripherals
at full peak current draw.
~
The 7720V2 is fully dependent on the battery for reliable communication.
Make sure the battery is fully charged at 13.6 volts. If voltage is less than 11
volts, the 7720V2 will not operate.
Power-Up Always connect the battery first.
Weather Proofing All outside antennas and cable connections must be weatherproofed.
Antenna Positioning Make sure the 7625 antenna is vertically mounted. If installing the 7625 or
7674 antenna outside, use the 7670 Antenna Bracket and follow the
installation instructions enclosed.

Radio Transmission
Test
System Test
Last Detected Fault
“E” Command
The 7720V2 is capable of sending atest message, which can be received by the
central station to confirm the radio’s communication link to the central station.
For AlarmNet users, the test message will cause the master station network to send a
“Field Triggered Diagnostic Message” to the central station. This message provides
network information as well as signal strength and frequency characteristics of the
transmitted messages. Refer to the AlarmNet User’s Guide for detailed information
concerning these messages. The test message can be transmitted in any of three
ways.
1)The TEST INPUT (terminal 9) of the 7720V2 can be triggered with avoltage trigger,
which will initiate a 90 second cycle (total of 60 messages) of test message
transmissions. Note that once this cycle has been initiated by avoltage trigger, it can be
turned off by using the Tcommand described in (2). Otherwise, the messages will not
stop until the end of the cycle.
2) A7720P Programming Tool can be used, if connected to the programming
connector of the 7720V2. To begin acycle of test message transmissions, press
SHIH-8 (T command). This is atoggle function. To end the transmissions before the
end of the cycle, simply enter the command again.
3) Acomputer terminal can be used, if connected to the programming connector of the
7720V2. To begin acycle of test message transmissions, press SHIFT-8 (T command).
This is atoggle function. To end the transmissions before the end of the cycle, simply
repeat the command.
Trigger an alarm by any convenient means and observe the LED indicators on the radio.
The yellow LED should light solidly, followed by the green LED flashing every 1-3
seconds at first, then slowing during the 6minute cycle. This indicates that an alarm
message has been received at the radio (yellow), and the transmitter has been activated
(green). The red LED should not light.
If the zone is programmed for restore, restore the circuit. The yellow LED should light
solidly and the green LED should flash again, indicating transmission of the restore
message. The central station receiver should display alarrrdrestore messages for each
triggered alarmhestore performed.
[fat any time the red LED “lights, aradio fault has been detected. This could be caused
by afaulty antenna connection, or might be caused by low internal battery voltage, or a
failure in the radio’s power circuits (see LED FLASH PAITERNS on page 4). The
7720P can display diagnostic data (“S” command) related to the status of these
conditions. See Status Command section.
Replace the cover (if it was removed) and perform acontrol panel system test.
The last detected radio fault and the last reported radio fault can be viewed by pressing
“E” on a 7720P Programming Tool or an appropriate terminal when either device is
connected to the serial port of the 7720V2.
The message is a2-line display where the top line identifies the last fault that the
7720V2 detected and the second line identifies the last fault that the 7720V2 actually
reported to the monitoring network. The last detected fault represents afault that
occurred on at least one transmission, but did not necessarily trip the fault relay. The
last reported fault is afault that was present for anumber of transmissions (typically
at least 4consecutive transmissions) and which tripped the fault relay. The possible
fault numbers are described in the “S” command paragraph above. If the detected fault
does not match the reported fault value, and the transmission cycle has finished, it
indicates that the fault was not present long enough for the radio to report the
condition.
These values are stored in EEPROM and will be retained even when the 7720V2 is
powered down. To erase the numbers from memory, press ESC (shift BS) as the next
keystroke after pressing “E”. The fault value is also erased automatically upon exiting
program mode.
NOTE: Since the execution of this command requires access to the RJI 1connector,
the antenna and cover must be removed. By doing so, the radio will detect an RF fault
as well as atamper. To prevent this fault from overwriting aprevious fault, the radio does
not write the last reported fault to EEPROM if atamper is detected.
-18-

Status “S” The status of the 7720V2 can be viewed on either a7720P Programming Tool or an
Command appropriate terminal when either device is connected to the serial port of the 7720V2.
