WARNING Please Read Carefully

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your respon-

sibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however,

involving fire, burglary, or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any alarm system

of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some

but not all of these reasons may be:

■ Inadequate Installation

A security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installation should

be evaluated by a security professional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Locks and latches

on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended. Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other

building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. A

reevaluation must be done during and after any construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police

department is highly recommended if this service is available.

■Criminal Knowledge

This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is pos-

sible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It

is important that a security system be reviewed periodically to ensure that its features remain effective and that

it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.

■Access by Intruders

Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by

moving through an area of insufficient coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the

proper operation of the system.

■Power Failure

Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power

supply for proper operation. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the

batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates

only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have

power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage

electronic equipment such as a security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct

a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

■Failure of Replaceable Batteries

This system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal

conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient condi-

tions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the

expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the bat-

teries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will

keep the system in good operating condition.

■Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near

the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

■System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physi-

cal disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important

that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond

when the system indicates an alarm.

■Smoke Detectors

Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a fire for a number of rea-

sons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke

may not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the

other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of the residence

or building.

Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense

all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness

or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable

materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning

to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

■Motion Detectors

Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation

instructions. They cannot discriminate between intruders and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not pro-

vide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in

unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings,

floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any type of tampering whether intentional or

unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or any

other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation.

Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their effectiveness can

be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are intentional or

unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radia-

tors, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on.

■Warning Devices

Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if

there is an intervening wall or door. If warning devices are located on a different level of the residence or

premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible warning devices may be

interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances,

or passing traffic. Audible warning devices, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

■Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time.

Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its operation by more sophisticated means which may be

difficult to detect.

■Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected

from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is moni-

tored, the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or their belongings.

■Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to func-

tion as intended due to the failure of a component.

■Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be found by regular testing

and maintenance. The complete system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an attempted

break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the

premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any

other operational devices that are part of the system.

■Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm sys-

tem also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or mini-

mize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

particular line to which the connection will be made, and provide the FCC registration number

and the ringer equivalence of the protective circuit.

FCC Registration Number: F53CAN-32028-AL-E

Facility Interface Code: 02LS2

Ringer Equivalence Number: 0.1B

Service Order Code: 9.0F

USOC Jack: RJ-31X

Telephone Connection Requirements Except for the telephone company provided ringers,

all connections to the telephone network shall be made through standard plugs and telephone

company provided jacks, or equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy, immediate discon-

nection of the terminal equipment. Standard jacks shall be so arranged that, if the plug connected

thereto is withdrawn, no interference to the operation of the equipment at the customer’s pre-

mises which remains connected to the telephone network shall occur by reason of such with-

drawal.

Incidence of Harm Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the tele-

phone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify the customer that tempo-

rary disconnection of service may be required; however, where prior notice is not practicable, the

mable (see 5.11“PGM Output Options” ) (see PC5204 Installa-

tion Instructions Sheet).

PC5208 Eight Low Current Output Module

Adds eight low current outputs (50 mA) to the control. Each

output is individually programmable. (see 5.11“PGM Output

Options” ) (See PC5208 Installation Instructions Sheet.)

Escort5580(TC) Module

This Escort5580(TC) module will turn any touch tone phone into

a fully functional keypad. The module also includes a built-in

interface to control up to 32 line carrier type devices for lighting

and temperature control (See Escort5580(TC) Installation Man-

ual).

PC5928/PC5936 Audio Interface Modules

The Audio Interface module is a simple way to incorporate

paging, intercom, baby listen-in and door answer to the

PC1555MX control panel . The modules have built-in talk/listen

voice capability for central station. Four additional devices are

available:

PC5921 Intercom Audio Station

Used in conjunction with the PC5928 Audio Interface Module.

PC5921 EXT Door Box Audio Station

Used in conjunction with the PC5928 Audio Interface Module.

PC5921 EXT/R Door Box Audio Station

Used in conjunction with the PC5928 Audio Interface Module. The

door box contains a relay so the normal door bell can be used

instead of the internal one generated by the PC5928 module.

PC5904 Central Station Talk/Listen Module

Used in conjunction with the PC5928 audio interface module

for talk/listen-in purposes. This station provides an added

level of volume to the central station operator’s voice.

Each station has a separate microphone and speaker. Each

station must be home-run to the interface module using

shielded 22 gauge, 4 conductor wire. All stations can be used

to sound an alarm follower.

LINKS1000 Cellular Communicator

The LINKS1000 cellular communicator can be used three dif-

ferent ways: as the sole communicator for the panel, as a

backup for either or both telephone numbers or as a redun-

dant backup to the land line communicator where the panel

will call both the land line and via the LINKS.

LINKS2X50*

Either the LINKS2150 or LINKS2450 may be used to transmit

alarm information over a long range radio network.

Skyroute Transceiver

The Skyroute transceiver offers a new wireless method of

communication for the transmission of events using cellemetry

service.

Section 2: Getting Started

The following sections provide a thorough description of how

to wire and configure devices and zones.

2.1 Installation Steps

Read this section completely before you begin. Once you

have an overall understanding of the installation process,

carefully work through each step.

Step 1: Create a Layout

Draw a rough sketch of the building to get an idea of where all

alarm detection devices, keypads and other modules are to

be located.

Step 2: Mounting the Panel

Mount the panel in a dry area close to an unswitched AC

power source and the incoming telephone line. Before attach-

ing the cabinet to the wall, be sure to press the four circuit

board mounting studs into the cabinet from the back.

NOTE: You must complete all wiring before connecting the bat-

tery, or applying AC to the panel.

Step 3: Wiring the Keybus (Section 2.3)

Wire the Keybus to each of the modules following the guide-

lines provided in Section 2.3 of this manual.

Step 4: Zone Wiring (Section 2.8)

You must power down the control panel to complete all zone

wiring. Please refer to 2.11 “Zone Wiring” when connecting

zones using normally closed loops, single EOL resistors, dou-

ble EOL resistors, Fire zones and Keyswitch Arming zones.

Step 5: Complete Wiring (Section 2.2)

Complete all other wiring including bells or sirens, telephone

line connections, and ground connections following the guide-

lines provided in Section 2.2 (“Terminal Descriptions”).

Step 6: Power up the Control

Once all zone and Keybus wiring is complete, power up the

control panel. First, connect the red battery lead to the posi-

tive terminal and the black lead to negative. Then, connect the

AC.

NOTE: Connect the battery before connecting the AC. You

must apply AC power to the panel for at least 10 seconds, or

the panel will not function. The panel will not power up on the

battery connection alone.

Step 7: Keypad Assignment (Section 2.6)

In order for keypads to be properly supervised, each must be

assigned to a different slot. Please follow the guidelines pro-

vided in Section 2.5 when assigning keypads.

Step 8: Supervision (Section 2.7)

The supervision of each module by the panel is automatically

enabled upon power up. Please verify that all modules appear

on the system according to the instructions in Section 2.6.

Step 9: Programming the System (Sections 4 & 5)

Section 4 explains how to program the panel. Section 5 con-

tains a complete description of the various programmable fea-

tures, which options are available and how they function. Fill

out the Programming Worksheets completely before attempt-

ing to program the system.

Step 10: Testing the System

Test the panel thoroughly to ensure that all features and func-

tions are operating as programmed.

2.2 Terminal Descriptions

Battery Connection

A 12V 4Ah rechargeable battery is used as a backup source

of power in the event of an AC power failure. The battery also

provides additional current when the panel’s demands exceed

the power output of the transformer, such as when the panel is

in alarm.

NOTE: Do not connect the battery until all other wiring is com-

plete. Connect the battery before connecting the AC.

Connect the RED battery lead to the positive battery terminal;

connect the BLACK lead to negative.

AC Terminals – AC

The panel requires a 16.5VAC, 40VA transformer. Connect the

transformer to an unswitched AC source and connect the

transformer to these terminals.

NOTE: Do not connect the transformer until all other wiring is

complete.

Auxiliary Power Terminals – AUX+ and AUX-

These terminals provide up to 550 mA of additional current at

12 VDC for devices requiring power. Connect the positive side

of any device requiring power to the AUX+ terminal, the nega-

tive side to AUX- (ground). The AUX output is protected. This

means that if too much current is drawn from these terminals

(such as a wiring short), the panel will temporarily shut off the

output until the problem is corrected.

Bell Output Terminals – BELL+ and BELL-

These terminals provide up to 700 mA of continuous current at

12 VDC for powering bells, sirens, strobes, etc. Connect the

positive side of any alarm warning device to BELL+, the nega-

tive side to BELL–. Please note that the bell output is pro-

tected: if too much current is drawn from these terminals (such

as a wiring short), the bell PTC will open. Three Amps can be

drawn for short periods only.

The bell output is supervised. If no alarm warning devices are

in use, connect a 1000Ωresistor across BELL+ and BELL–to

prevent the panel from displaying a trouble condition. For

more information, please refer to “[*][2] Trouble Display” ).

For UL installations, when a bell or

siren is used for fire signaling with a

pulsed cadence, it must be con-

nected between the AUX+ and

BELL- terminals. To maintain bell cir-

cuit supervision, do not connect

more than one device to the bell ter-

minal. A fire bell or siren used for

this application must be UL Listed and have a current con-

sumption of 700mA or less (e.g., Wheelock MT-12/24-R).

Keybus Terminals – AUX+, AUX-, YEL, GRN

The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with mod-

ules and vice versa. Each module has four Keybus terminals

that must be connected to the four Keybus terminals on the

panel. For more information, see section 2.4 “Keybus Opera-

tion & Wiring” .

Getting Started: 2.3 Wire Routing for Power & Non-Power Limited

Programmable Output Terminals – PGM1 and PGM2

Each PGM output is designed so that when activated by the

panel, the terminal will switch to ground

PGM1 can sink up to 50mA of

current. Connect the positive

side of the LED or buzzer to

AUX+, the negative side to

PGM1. PGM2 operates similarly

to PGM1. However, PGM2 can

sink up to 300mA of current. If

more than 300mA of current are

required, a relay must be used.

NOTE: For the 50/50 version of

this panel, PGM2 can sink up to

50mA. If more current is

required, a relay must be used.

Please study PGM wiring in the

accompanying diagram. For a

list of the programmable output options, please see section

5.11 “PGM Output Options” .

Zone Input Terminals – Z1 to Z6

Each detection device must be connected to a zone on the

control panel. We suggest that one detection device be con-

nected to each zone; wiring multiple detection devices to a

single zone, however, is possible. For zone wiring specifics,

please see section 2.11 “Zone Wiring” .

Telephone Connection Terminals – TIP, RING, T-1, R-1

If a telephone line is required for central station communica-

tion or downloading, connect an RJ-31X telephone jack in the

following manner:

Connect the PC1555MX and modules which use the tele-

phone line(s) in the following order:

For example, if you are installing a PC1555MX with a

LINKS1000 and a PC5928 Intercom module, connect the

incoming line to the LINKS1000, then from the LINKS1000 to

the PC1555MX, then from the PC1555MX to the PC5928 Inter-

com and then from the PC5928 to the house telephones.

NOTE: Please ensure that all plugs and jacks meet the dimen-

sion, tolerance and metallic plating requirements of 47 C.F.R.

Part 68, SubPart F. For proper operation, no other telephone

equipment should be connected between the control panel and

the telephone company facilities. Do not connect the alarm

panel communicator to telephone lines intended for use with a

fax machine. These lines may incorporate a voice filter which

disconnects the line if anything other than fax signals is

detected, resulting in incomplete transmissions.

2.3 Wire Routing for Power & Non-Power

Limited

All wiring entry points are designated by the arrows. All cir-

cuits are classified UL installation power limited except for the

battery leads which are not power limited.

A minimum ¼” (6.4mm) separation must be maintained at all

points between power limited and non-power limited wiring

and connections.

NOTE: Wire entry for power limited wiring must be separated

by a different entry access from non-power limited wiring.

2.4 Keybus Operation & Wiring

The keybus is used by the panel to communicate with all con-

nected modules and vice versa. The red (AUX+) and black

(AUX-) terminals are used to provide power, while the yellow

(YEL) and green (GRN) terminals are clock and data respec-

tively.

NOTE: The four Keybus terminals of the panel must be con-

nected to the four Keybus terminals or wires of all modules.

The following restrictions apply to keybus wiring:

•Keybus should be run in minimum 22-gauge quad

(0.5mm); two pair twisted is preferred.

•The modules should be home-run to the panel but can be

connected in series or T-tapped.

•Any module can be connected anywhere along the key-

bus. You do not need to run a separate keybus wire for

keypads, etc.

•No module can be more than 1,000'/305m (in wire length)

from the panel.

•Shielded wire should not be used.

Example of Keybus Wiring

NOTE: Module (A) is cor-

rectly wired within 1,000'/

305m from the panel. Module

(B) is correctly wired within

1,000'/305m of wire from the

panel. Module (C) is NOT

wired correctly as it is further

than 1,000'/305m from the

panel, in wire distance.

2.5 Current Ratings – Modules &

Accessories

Other Devices

Please read the manufacturer’s literature carefully to deter-

mine the maximum current requirements for each device—

during activation or alarm—and include the proper values for

loading calculations. Connected devices must not exceed

system capabilities during any possible operational mode.

2.6 Keypad Assignment

There are eight available slots for keypads. LED/LCD5501Z

keypads by default are always assigned to slot 1. LCD5500Z

keypads are always assigned to slot 8. You will need to assign

each keypad to its own slot (1 to 8). Keypad assignment is

required, as it tells the panel which slots are occupied. The

panel can then generate a fault when a keypad supervisory is

not present.

NOTE: One LCD keypad must be assigned to slot 8 in order to

upload keypad programming using DLS-3 software.

How to Assign Keypads

Do the following at each keypad installed on the system:

1. Enter [*][8][Installer’s Code] to go to Installer Programming

2. Enter [000] for keypad programming

3. Enter [0] for slot assignment

4. Enter a two digit number (11-18) to specify which supervi-

sory slot the keypad will occupy.

5. Press [#] twice to exit installer programming.

After assigning all keypads, perform a supervisory reset by

entering section [902] in Installer’s Programming. The panel

will now supervise all assigned keypads and enrolled modules

on the system.

How to Program Function Keys

By default, the 5 function keys on each keypad are pro-

grammed as Stay arm (03), Away arm (04), Chime (06), Sen-

sor Reset (14) and Quick Exit (16). You can change the

function of each key on every keypad:

1. Go to the keypad where you want to change the function

key programming and enter installer programming.

2. Press [000] for keypad programming.

3. Enter [1] to [5] to select a function key to program.

4. Enter the 2 digit number, [00] to [21] to select the feature

you want the function key to have. For a complete list of

function key options see section 3.5 “Function Keys” .

5. Continue from step 3 until all function keys are pro-

grammed.

6. To exit Installer Programming, press [#] twice.

2.7 Supervision

By default, all modules are supervised upon installation.

Supervision is enabled at all times so that the panel can indi-

cate a trouble if a module is removed from the system.

To check which modules are currently connected and super-

vised, enter programming section [903] from installer pro-

gramming. The LCD keypad will allow you to scroll through the

display of connected modules. A connected module which

does not show as being present will appear as a trouble con-

dition and the Trouble light on the keypad will turn ON. This

condition may be due to one or more of the following reasons:

•the module is not connected to the Keybus

•there is a Keybus wiring problem

•the module is more than 1,000'/305m from the panel

•the module does not have enough power

For more information regarding module supervision troubles,

please refer to “[*][2] Trouble Display” .

2.8 Removing Modules

The panel must be instructed to no longer supervise a module

being removed from the system. To remove the module, discon-

nect it from the Keybus and reset the supervision field by enter-

ing [902] in installer programming. The panel will be reset to

recognize and supervise all existing modules on the system.

2.9 Fire Zone Wiring

4-Wire Smoke Detectors

All fire zones must be wired according to the following diagram:

2-Wire Smoke Detectors (50/300 only)

If PGM2 has been programmed for a 2-wire smoke detector

connection, the detectors must be wired according to the fol-

lowing diagram:

Getting Started: 2.10 24-Hr Auxiliary Input Wiring (PGM2)

NOTE: See the Wiring Diagram Compatibility Chart for a list of

compatible 2-wire smoke detectors.

NOTE: If PGM2 is programmed for 2-wire smoke support, the

connector JP1 on the main board must be removed.

NOTE: 2-wire smoke detectors are not supported on the 50/50

version of the panel.

2.10 24-Hr Auxiliary Input Wiring (PGM2)

If PGM2 has been programmed for 24-hour operation, the

zone must be wired according to the following diagram:

NOTE: If PGM2 is pro-

grammed for 24-hr auxil-

iary input support, the

connector JP1 on the main

board must be removed.

2.11Zone Wiring

For a complete description of the operation of all zone types,

please refer to 5.2 “Zone Programming” .

There are several different ways in which zones may be wired,

depending on which programming options have been

selected. The panel can be programmed to supervise nor-

mally closed, end of line, or double end of line loops. Please

refer to the following diagrams to study each type of individu-

ally supervised zone wiring.

NOTE: Any zone programmed for fire or 24 hour supervisory

must be wired with a single end of line (EOL) resistor regard-

less of the type of zone wiring supervision selected for the

panel (section [013]: [1] -[2]). see 5.2“Zone Programming”

NOTE: If you change the zone supervision options from DEOL

to EOL or from NC to DEOL (section [013], options [1] or [2]),

you should power down the system completely, and then

power it back up. If you do not, the zones may not work cor-

rectly.

Normally Closed (NC) Loops

To enable normally closed loops, programming section [013],

option [1] must be ON.

NOTE: This option should only be selected if normally closed

(NC) detection devices or contacts are being used.

Single End Of Line (EOL) Resistors (5600Ω)

To enable panel detection of single end of line resistors, pro-

gramming section [013], Options [1] and [2] must be OFF.

NOTE: This option should be selected if either normally closed

(NC) or normally open (NO) detection devices or contacts are

being used.

Double End of Line (DEOL) Resistors

Double end of line resistors allow the panel to determine if the

zone is in alarm, tampered or faulted.

To enable panel detection of double end of line resistors, pro-

gramming section [013], option [1] must be OFF and option

[2] must be ON.

NOTE: If the double EOL supervision option is enabled, all

hardwire zones on the main panel must be wired for double

EOL resistors, except for fire and 24 Hour supervisory zones.

NOTE: Do not wire DEOL resistors on keypad zones.

NOTE: Do not use DEOL resistors for fire zones or 24 hour

supervisory zones. Do not wire fire zones to keypad zone ter-

minals if the DEOL supervision option is selected.

NOTE: This option can only be selected if normally closed

(NC) detection devices or contacts are being used.

NOTE: Only one NC contact can be connected to each zone.

Wiring multiple detection devices or contacts on a single loop

is not allowed.

The following chart shows zone status under certain conditions:

2.12 LINKS Zone Wiring

LINKS Support

When using the LINKS1000

cellular communicator, con-

nect the LINKS to the main

panel according to the fol-

lowing diagram:

LINKS Supervision (24 Hour Supervisory)

When using the

LINKS1000 cellular com-

municator, any main board

zone may be configured

for LINKS supervision. Pro-

gram this zone as zone

type [09], 24 hour supervi-

sory in section [001].

With a LINKS supervisory

zone, if the LINKS1000

experiences a trouble, the

zone will be violated, caus-

ing the panel to report the event to the central station. This

type of zone always requires a single EOL resistor (5600Ω).

Wire this zone according to the above diagram.

LINKS Answer

When using the LINKS1000

cellular communicator, any

main board zone may be

configured for LINKS

Answer.

A zone configured for

LINKS Answer allows down-

loading to be performed in

the event of telephone line

failure. When the LINKS

receives a telephone call, it

will activate the RING termi-

nal on the LINKS circuit board. The zone programmed as

LINKS Answer always requires a single EOL resistor (5600Ω).

Wire the LINKS Answer zone according to the above diagram.

NOTE: The LINKS Answer zone is only required for download-

ing to the panel via the LINKS.

NOTE: When using the LINKS, Busy Tone Detection must not

be used.

NOTE: Keypad zones cannot be used for 24 hour supervisory

or LINKS Answer.

2.13 Keypad Zones

Each ‘Z’keypad on the system has a zone input to which a

device - such as a door contact - can be connected. This

eliminates the need to run wires back to the control panel for

every device.

To install the keypad, open the keypad plastic by removing the

screw at the bottom of the unit. Locate the five terminals on

the keypad circuit board. Connect the four Keybus wires from

the control panel: the red wire to R, the black to B, the yellow

to Y and the green to G.

To connect the zone, run one wire to the Z terminal and the

other to B. For powered devices, use red and black to supply

power to the device. Run the red wire to the R (positive) termi-

nal and the black wire to the B (negative) terminal.

When using end of line supervision, connect the zone accord-

ing to one of the configurations outlined in section 2.11 “Zone

Wiring”. End of line resistors must be placed on the device

end of the loop, not at the keypad.

NOTE: Keypad zones do not support DEOL resistors.

NOTE: Only non 24-hr burglary type zones can be configured

as keypad zones for UL Listed products.

Assigning Keypad Zones

When using keypad zone inputs, each input used must be

assigned a zone number in installer programming.

First, ensure that you have enrolled all installed keypads into

the desired slots. (see 2.6“Keypad Assignment” )

Next, enter programming section [020] to assign the zones.

There are eight programming locations in this section, one for

each keypad slot. Enter a 2-digit zone number for each of the

keypad zones. This number must be entered in the location

corresponding to the keypad to which each zone is con-

nected.

Example: The zone on an LCD5500Z keypad in slot 8 is to be

assigned zone 3. In section [020], scroll to option [8] and

enter (03).

NOTE: Keypad zones 1-6 will replace zone terminals Z1-Z6 on

the control panel.

NOTE: Once the keypad zones are assigned, you must also

program zone definitions and zone attributes. (See also 5.4

“Assigning Keypad Zones” ).

NOTE: Keypad zones can only be used for household bur-

glary-initiated devices. Devices attached to keypad zones

should be placed as close as possible to the keypad, and must

be wired as EOL loops. The keypad zone must be tested

weekly.

Section 3: Keypad Commands

Use any system keypad to enter commands and/or program

the PC1555MX security system. The LED keypad uses func-

tion and zone indicator lights to represent alarm functions and

status. The LCD keypad provides a written description on the

liquid crystal display and uses function indicator lights to

communicate alarm status to the user.

The PC1555MX Instruction Manual provides basic directions

for arming and disarming the system, bypassing zones and

performing user functions from the keypads. The following

sections provide additional details on these functions.

3.1 Arming and Disarming

For a description of basic arming and disarming, please see

the PC1555MX Instruction Manual. For other methods of arm-

ing, please refer to “[*][0] Quick Arm”,“[*][9] Arming Without

Entry Delay” and 3.5 “Function Keys” .

NOTE: The event buffer will log “Armed in Stay Mode” or

“Armed in Away Mode” whenever the system is armed.

In an attempt to prevent false alarms, the Audible Exit Fault

will notify the user of an improper exit when they arm their sys-

tem. If a non force-arming Delay 1 or Delay 2 type zone is left

open at the end of the exit delay, the entry delay will begin

immediately and the bell or siren will sound a steady alarm for

the entry delay period. At the end of the entry delay period, if

the system has not been disarmed it will go into alarm. This

feature can be turned OFF in programming section [013],

option [6]. (see 5.17“Arming/Disarming Options” )

3.2 Auto Bypass – Stay Arming

Stay Arming allows the user to arm the system without leaving

the premises. All zones programmed as Stay/Away will be

bypassed when the user stay arms the system, so that the

user does not have to bypass interior zones manually (see

5.2“Zone Programming” ).

When the system is armed using a valid access code, if any

zones on the system have been programmed as Stay/Away

zones, the Bypass light will turn ON. The panel will then moni-

tor all zones programmed as Delay 1 and Delay 2 zones, such

as designated entry/exit doors. If a delay zone is not violated

by the end of the exit delay, the panel will bypass all Stay/

Away zones. The Bypass light will remain on to inform the user

that the interior zones have been automatically bypassed by

the panel. If a delay zone is violated during the exit delay, the

system will arm in Away mode and all Stay/Away zones will be

active after the exit delay expires.

The user can arm the stay/away zones at any time by entering

the [*][1] keypad command (see “[*][1] Bypassing and Acti-

vating Stay/Away Zones” ). Stay Arming can also be initiated

by pressing and holding the Stay function key for two seconds

on the PC5508Z and LCD5500Z keypads, if programmed by

the installer. For more information regarding Stay arming,

please see 3.5 “Function Keys” .

3.3 Automatic Arming

The system can be programmed to auto-arm at a specific time

every day if it is in the disarmed condition. In order for the

auto-arm function to work properly, you must program the cor-

rect time of day. For programming the clock and auto-arm

times, see “[*][6] User Functions” .

When the system’s internal clock matches the auto-arm time,

the panel will check the system status. If the system is armed,

the panel will do nothing until the next day at the auto-arm

time, when it will check the system again. If the system is dis-

armed at the auto-arm time, the panel will sound the buzzer of

all keypads for one minute. If the Bell Squawk During Auto

Arm option is enabled (section [014], option [2]), the bell will

squawk once every 10 seconds while the system is auto-arm-

ing. If a valid access code is entered, auto-arming will be

aborted.

NOTE: If auto-arm is cancelled, the number of the user who

cancelled the auto-arm will be logged in the event buffer.

If no code is entered, the panel will auto-arm. If a zone is vio-

lated, the panel will transmit a Partial Closing reporting code –

if programmed –to indicate to the central station that the sys-

tem is not secure. If the zone is restored, the panel will add the

zone back into the system.

NOTE: Auto-arming can only be cancelled by entering a valid

access code at any keypad.

3.4 [*] Commands

The [*] key commands provide an easy way for the user to

access basic system programming –such as programming

access codes or bypassing zones. The user can also use the

[*] key commands to check on the system’s status, including

viewing trouble conditions and displaying the event buffer on

the LCD keypad.

The [*] key commands can be performed from both LCD and

LED keypads. The LED keypad uses the zone indicator lights

to display command information. The LCD display provides

written information, guiding the user through each command.

The commands in this section are explained as viewed from

an LED keypad. When using an LCD keypad, use the arrow

keys (< >) to scroll through information provided. Otherwise,

the functions remain the same for both keypad types.

[*][1] Bypassing and Activating Stay/Away Zones

Use the [*][1] keypad command to bypass individual zones. A

bypassed zone will not cause an alarm.

NOTE: Zones can only be bypassed when the system is not

armed.

If the Code Required for Bypass option is enabled (section

[015], option [5]), only access codes with the bypass attribute

enabled will be able to bypass zones. (see 5.1“Programming

Security Codes” )

If the Bypass Status Displayed While Armed option is cho-

sen, the Bypass light will be ON while the system is armed to

indicate any bypassed zones see 5.17“Arming/Disarming

Options” ).

NOTE: When you disarm the system, all manually bypassed

zones will be unbypassed.

Activate Stay/Away Zones

If the system is armed in Stay mode, the [*][1] command can

be used to activate the Stay/Away zones.

[*][2] Trouble Display

The panel constantly monitors itself for several different trou-

ble conditions. If a trouble condition is present, the Trouble

light will be on and the keypad will beep twice every 10 sec-

onds. The trouble beep can be silenced by pressing any key

on any keypad. If Bell Squawk on Trouble is enabled (sec-

tion [014], option [5]), the bell will squawk every 10 seconds

when a trouble condition is present.

To view trouble conditions from an LED or a Fixed Mes-

sage LCD keypad:

1. Press [*][2].

2. The keypad will flash the Trouble light. The zone indicator

lights corresponding to the present trouble conditions will

be ON.

When using an LCD keypad, the trouble conditions will be

listed on the display. Use the arrow (< >) keys to scroll through

the list of present trouble conditions.

NOTE: Troubles can be viewed while armed using the LCD

keypad, provided the keypad is version 2.0 or later. Older key-

pads will incorrectly display “Fire Trouble”. If using older LCD

keypads, programming section [013], option [3] as OFF will

ensure troubles are displayed correctly.

The various troubles are described below:

[*][3] Alarm Memory

The Memory light will be on if any alarm occurred during the

last armed period or –in the case of 24 hour zones –if an

alarm occurred while the panel was disarmed.

To view alarm memory, press [*][3]. The keypad will flash the

Memory light and the zone indicator lights corresponding to

the alarm or tamper conditions which occurred during or since

the last armed period. To clear the Memory light, arm and dis-

arm the system.

[*][4] Door Chime On/Off

The door chime feature is used to sound a tone from the key-

pad whenever a zone programmed as a chime zone is acti-

4Failure to Communicate (FTC): The communicator failed to communicate with any of the programmed telephone

numbers (see section 5.5 “Communicator – Dialing” ).

5Zone Fault (including Fire Zone): A zone on the system is experiencing trouble, meaning that a zone could not

transmit an alarm to the panel if required to do so (e.g., a fire zone is open, or there is a short on a DEOL zone, or a

supervisory fault on a wireless zone). When a zone fault trouble condition occurs, the keypad(s) on the system will start

to beep. Press [5] while in Trouble mode to view the affected zones.

NOTE: A Fire zone trouble will be generated and displayed in the armed state.

6Zone Tamper: A zone configured for double end of line resistor supervision has a tamper condition, or the tamper switch

is open on a wireless device. When a tamper condition occurs, the keypad(s) will start to beep. Press [6] while in the Trou-

ble mode to view the affected zones. If a zone is tampered or faulted, it must be fully restored to clear the trouble.

NOTE: By enabling Tampers/Faults Do Not Show as Open in section [013], option [4], Faults and

Tampers will not show as open on the keypad, and will be hidden from the end user. If the option is disabled,

Faults and Tampers will be displayed on the keypad

NOTE: Once a zone is tampered or faulted, it must be completely restored before the trouble condition will

clear.

7Device Low Battery: A wireless device has a low battery condition. Press [7] one, two, or three times to view which

trouble is cleared when an attempt is made to reset the clock.

Keypad Commands: 3.4 [*] Commands

vated. (see 5.3“Zone Attributes” ) If the door chime feature is

enabled, the keypad will emit five short beeps whenever a

chime zone is activated. Designated entry/exit doors are often

defined as chime zones. The feature can be turned on or off

while the system is armed or disarmed.

[*][5] Programming Access Codes

There are 37 access codes available to the user. They are:

Access code (40)......................One master code

Access codes (01)-(32).............32 general access codes

Access codes (33)-(34).............Two duress codes

Access codes (41)-(42).............Two supervisor codes

All access codes have the ability to arm or disarm the system

and can activate the PGM Outputs using the [*][7] com-

mands.

For a description of how to program access codes from LCD

or LED keypads, see the PC1555MX Instruction Manual.

Master Code – Access Code (40)

This code can be used to program all access codes. The

master code has all access code attributes enabled by

default, so that the master code can be used to perform any

keypad function. Master code attributes cannot be changed.

If the Master Code Not Changeable option is enabled, (sec-

tion [015], option [6]) the master code can only be changed

by the installer.

General Access Codes – Access Codes (01) to (32)

General access codes can arm and disarm the system. When

the Code Required for Bypassing option is enabled, users

will need to enter a valid access code when bypassing zones.

Individual access codes can have the Zone Bypassing

attribute disabled under Access Code Attribute programming.

For more information regarding access code options, please

see 5.1 “Programming Security Codes” .

Duress Code – Access Code (33) and (34)

Duress codes will send a duress reporting code to the central

station when entered.

NOTE: If a duress code is programmed, when it is used the

panel will always send a reporting code to the central station,

even if the attributes of the duress code are turned off.

Supervisor Codes – Access Code (41) and (42)

These codes can be used to program general access and

duress codes. The two supervisor codes have all attributes on

by default. These settings can be changed.

Access Code Attributes

There are four access code attributes which can be pro-

grammed for each code.

To program each attribute, enter [*][5][Master Code][9] to

enter the attribute programming mode. Then enter the code

number [01-32,33,34,41,42]. Enter the attribute number:

Attribute [1].......... User-enabled for arming, disarming, alarm

reset, [*][7][1-4] options, auto arm cancel-

lation

Attribute [2].......... Not used

Attribute [3].......... Zone bypassing enabled

Attribute [4].......... Escort5580(TC) access enabled

Attribute [5]-[6].... Not used

Attribute [7].......... Bell squawk on access code entry

Example: You can use the arm/disarm bell squawk attribute to

have wireless key access codes squawk the bell, while other

codes are silent. To do this, enable attribute [7] on all access

codes associated with wireless keys.

NOTE: If you enable the Bell Squawk on Arming/Disarming

(section [014], option [1]), the bell will sound arm/disarm bell

squawks for all access codes, regardless of the programming

for attribute [7]. see 5.17“Arming/Disarming Options”

Section 4: How to Program

The following section of the manual describes installer pro-

gramming.

NOTE: Read the following section of the manual very carefully

before you begin programming. We also recommend filling out

the Programming Worksheets section before you program the

panel.

For your reference, the corresponding programming sections for

the functions listed are highlighted in text boxes like this one.

4.1 Installer’s Programming

Installer’s Programming is used to program all communicator

and panel options. The Installer’s Code is [5555] by default

but should be changed to prevent unauthorized access to

programming.

Installer’s Code . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Section [006]

From an LED/Fixed Message LCD Keypad:

1. Enter [*][8][Installer’s Code].

The Program light will flash to indicate that you are in pro-

gramming mode.

The Armed light will turn on to indicate that the panel is

waiting for the three-digit programming section number.

2. Enter the three-digit section number corresponding to the

section you wish to program.

The Armed light will turn off.

The Ready light will turn on to indicate that the panel is

waiting for the information required to complete program-

ming the selected section.

3. Enter the information required to complete section pro-

gramming (i.e.: numbers, HEX data, or ON/OFF options).

NOTE: If the three-digit section number entered is invalid, or if

the module which pertains to the section is not present, the

keypad will sound a two second error tone.

From an LCD Keypad:

1. From any keypad, enter [*][8][Installer’s Code]. The key-

pad will display ‘Enter Section’followed by three dashes.

2. Enter the three-digit number corresponding to the pro-

gramming section number you wish to program. The key-

pad will now display the information required to complete

programming the selected section.

3. Enter the information required to complete section pro-

gramming (i.e., numbers, HEX data, or ON/OFF options).

If you enter information into a section and make a mistake,

press the [#] key to exit the section. Select that section again

and re-enter the information correctly.

NOTE: There must be one digit in each box in the program-

ming section in order for the change to be valid.

4.2 Programming Decimal Data

A set number of programming boxes is allotted for each sec-

tion requiring decimal data (e.g., codes, telephone numbers).

If a digit is entered for each program box, the panel will auto-

matically exit from the selected programming section. The

Ready light will turn OFF and the Armed light will turn ON.

On any keypad, you can also press the [#] key to exit a pro-

gramming section without entering data for every box. This is

handy if you only need to change digits in the first few pro-

gramming boxes. All other digits in the programming section

will remain unchanged.

4.3 Programming HEX Data

On occasion, hexadecimal (HEX) digits may be required. To

program a HEX digit press the [*] key. The panel will enter

HEX programming and Ready light will begin to flash.

The following are the numbers which should be pressed to

enter the appropriate HEX digit:

1 = A 2 = B 3 = C 4 = D 5 = E 6 = F

Once the correct HEX digit has been entered, the Ready light

will continue to flash. If another HEX digit is required, press the

corresponding number. If a decimal digit is required, press the

[*] key again. The Ready light will turn on and the panel will

return to regular decimal programming.

Example:

To enter ‘C1’for a closing by user 1, you would enter:

[*][3][*], [1]:

•[*] to enter Hexadecimal mode (Ready light flashes)

•[3] to enter C

•[*] to return to decimal mode (Ready light is solid)

•[1] to enter digit 1

NOTE: If Ready light is flashing, any number you enter will be

programmed as the HEX equivalent.

If you are using a pulse communications format, a decimal

zero [0] does not transmit. Programming a zero [0] tells the

panel not to send any pulses for that digit. Decimal zero [0] is

a filler digit. To transmit a zero [0], it must be programmed as

a hexadecimal ‘A’.

Example:

For the three digit account number ‘403’, you would enter:

[4], [*][1][*][3], [0]:

•[4] to enter the digit 4

•[*] to enter Hexadecimal mode (Ready light flashes)

•[1] to enter A

•[*] to return to decimal mode (Ready light is solid)

•[3] to enter the digit 3

•[0] to enter the digit 0 as a filler digit.

4.4 Programming Toggle Option Sections

Some programming sections contain several toggle options.

The panel will use zone lights 1 through 8 to indicate if the dif-

ferent options are enabled or disabled. Press the number cor-

responding to the option to turn it ON or OFF. Once all the

toggle options have been selected correctly, press the [#] key

to exit the section and save the changes. The Ready light will

turn OFF and the Armed light will turn ON.

Refer to the Programming Worksheets in this manual to deter-

mine what each option represents and whether the light

should be ON or OFF for your application.

4.5 Viewing Programming

LED/Fixed Message LCD Keypads

Any programming section can be viewed from an LED key-

pad. When a programming section is entered, the keypad will

immediately display the first digit of information programmed

in that section.

The keypad displays the information using a binary format,

according to the following chart: See Hex data

entry instructions

Press any of the Emergency keys (Fire, Auxiliary or Panic) to

advance to the next digit. When all the digits in a section have

been viewed, the panel will exit the section; the Ready light

will turn OFF and the Armed light will turn ON, waiting for the

next three-digit programming section number to be entered.

Press the [#] key to exit the section

The following section explains the operation of all programma-

ble features and options and provides a summary of all corre-

sponding programming locations.

5.1 Programming Security Codes

There are three codes which can be programmed by the

installer in the installer programming function: the Master Code,

the Installer’s Code, and a Maintenance Code. All other access

codes can be programmed through the [*][5] command. (see

“[*][5] Programming Access Codes” )

The master code can also be programmed by the user as

access code (40). If the Master Code Not Changeable option

is enabled, the system master code can only be changed by

the installer.

The maintenance code can only be used to arm and disarm

the system. The maintenance code cannot bypass zones; use

[*][9] to arm the system, cancel auto-arming, or perform [*][7]

command functions. There will be no arm/disarm bell

squawks when the maintenance code is used.

General access codes can arm and disarm the system. When

the Code Required for Bypassing option is enabled, users

will need to enter a valid access code when bypassing zones.

Individual access codes can have the Zone Bypassing

attribute disabled under Access Code Attribute programming.

(see “[*][5] Programming Access Codes” )

If the 6-Digit User Access Codes option is enabled, all the

access codes can be programmed with six digits instead of

four, with the exception of the panel ID code and the down-

loading access code.

5.2 Zone Programming

Zones 1-8 are enabled by default. Disable unused zones, or

enable additional zones in programming sections [202] - [205].

The zone definitions describe how each of the zones you use

will operate. Program a two-digit code describing the zone

definition in sections [001] - [004]. Select a definition from the

list below.

In addition, each zone has eight different attributes which can

be programmed in sections [101] to [132]. (see 5.3“Zone

Attributes” )

Zone Definitions

[00] Null Zone

The zone is vacant. Unused zones should be programmed as

Null zones.

[01] Delay 1 Zone

This zone type, normally used for entry/exit doors, can be vio-

lated during the exit delay time without causing an alarm.

Once the exit delay has expired, opening the zone will start

the entry delay timer. During the entry delay time, the keypad

buzzer will sound steadily to advise the user that the system

delay should be disarmed. If the panel is disarmed before the

entry time expires, no alarm will be generated.

[02] Delay 2 Zone

The Delay 2 entry delay time can be set independently of

Delay 1 in programming section [005] (System Times).

[03] Instant Zone

This zone type will cause an instant alarm if it is violated when

the panel is armed. Typically, this zone is used for windows,

patio doors or other perimeter zones, and glassbreak detectors.

[04] Interior Zone

This zone will not cause an alarm if violated during the entry

delay. If the zone is violated before the entry delay has begun,

it will cause an instant alarm. Typically, this zone is used for

interior protection devices, such as motion detectors.

[05] Interior Stay/Away Zone

This zone type works similarly to the Interior zone type, except

that it will be automatically bypassed under the following con-

ditions:

•When the panel is armed in the Stay Mode. (see 3.5“Func-

tion Keys” )

•When the panel is armed without entry delay. (see “[*][9]

Arming Without Entry Delay” )

•When the panel is armed with an access code and a Delay

type zone is NOT tripped during the exit delay.

The automatic bypass prevents the user from having to manu-

ally bypass Interior zones when arming at home. This zone is

typically used for interior protection devices, such as motion

detectors.

[06] Delay Stay/Away Zone

This zone type will operate similarly to Interior Stay/Away

zones, except that it will always provide an entry delay. Typi-

cally, this zone is used for interior protection devices, such as

motion detectors. This zone option will help prevent false

alarms since it always provides an entry delay time for the

user to turn off the panel.

NOTE: Hardwired motion detectors covering entry/exit doors

that are using wireless transmitters must be programmed as

Delay Stay/Away. If not, the panel may see the motion detector

violation before the entry/exit transmitter has time to transmit to

the receiver, causing a false alarm.

[07] Delayed 24 Hour Fire Zone

NOTE: Do not wire Fire zones on keypad zone terminals if the

DEOL supervision option is enabled for the panel (see Pro-

gramming Worksheets, section [013], option [2]).

When this zone is violated, the alarm output will be immedi-

ately activated (pre-alert) but the communicator will be

delayed for 30 seconds. If the user presses any key on any

keypad during this delay, the alarm output and the communi-

cator will be delayed an additional 90 seconds, giving the

user time to correct the problem. If the zone is still violated

after the 90 second delay, the panel will sound the alarm out-

put and delay the communicator for 30 seconds.

If the user does not press a key during the 30 second pre-

alert, the alarm output will latch and the panel will communi-

cate the alarm to the central station. The alarm will sound until

the Bell Cutoff time expires (Section [005] ‘System Times’), or

until a code is entered. (see 5.13“Bell” )

NOTE: If a second fire zone is violated or if the fire keys are

pressed during the delay period, the panel will latch the alarm

output and will immediately communicate the alarm.
