2.2 Terminal Descriptions
AC Terminals - AC
The panel requires a 16.5 volt, 40 VA transformer. Connect the transformer to an unswitched AC source
and connect the transformer to these terminals.
Do not connect the transformer until all other wiring is complete .
Battery Connection
The battery is used to provide back up power in the event of an AC power failure and to provide additional current
when the panel demands exceed the power output of the transformer, such as when the panel is in alarm.
Getting Started

G E T T I N G S T A R T E D
6
Do not connect the battery until all other wiring is complete
.....
Connect the RED battery lead to the positive of the battery, the BLACK battery lead to the negative.
Auxiliary Power Terminals - AUX+ and GND
These terminals provide up to 500 mA of additional current at 12 VDC
(rated 11.6 - 12.6 V DC for UL
residential applications) for devices requiring power. Connect the positive side of any device requiring
power to the AUX+ terminal, the negative side to GND. The AUX output is protected; if too much current is
drawn from these terminals (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 3 Amps of current at 12 VDC
(rated 11.6 - 12.6 V DC for UL residential
applications) (with stand-by battery; 700 mA continuous) for powering bells, sirens, strobes or other
warning type equipment. Connect the positive side of any alarm warning device to BELL+, the negative
side to BELL–. The BELL output is protected; if too much current is drawn from these terminals (wiring
short) the BELL fuse will open.
The Bell output is supervised. If no alarm warning device is being used connect a 1000 ohm resistor
across BELL+ and BELL– to prevent the panel from displaying a trouble condition
(See Section 3.4 “[ ✱ ]
Commands,[
✱ ][2]”).
Keybus Terminals - RED, BLK, YEL, GRN
The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with modules and by modules to communicate with the
panel. Each module has four Keybus terminals that must be connected to the four Keybus terminals on the
panel. For more information, see Section 2.3 “Keybus Operation and Wiring”.
Programmable Outputs - PGM1 and PGM2
Each PGM output is an open collector switch to ground. That is, when the PGM output is activated by the
panel the terminal will switch to ground.
PGM1 can sink up to 50 mA of current to activate LEDs or a small buzzer. Connect the positive side of the
LED or buzzer to AUX+, the negative side to PGM1. If more than 50 mA of current is required a relay must
be used. Refer to the following diagram:
PGM2 operates similar to PGM1.
Zone Input Terminals - Z1 to Z8
Each detection device must be connected to a zone on the control. It is suggested that each zone have
one detection device however it is possible to wire multiple detection devices to the same zone.
For zone wiring specifics,
see Section 2.9 “Zone Wiring” .
Telephone Connection Terminals - TIP, RING, T-1, R-1
If a telephone line is required for central station communication or downloading connect an RJ-31X jack in
the following manner:
• RING - Red Wire ........ Incoming line from • R-1 - Grey Wire .......... Outgoing line to
• TIP - Green Wire telephone company • T-1 - Brown Wire house telephone(s)

G E T T I N G S T A R T E D

Ensure the plugs and jacks meet the dimension, tolerance and metallic plating requirements of
47 C.F.R.Part 68, SubPart F .
For proper operation there must be no other telephone equipment 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 are detected, resulting in incomplete transmissions .
2.3 Keybus OperationandWiring
The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with all modules connected and by the modules to talk to
the panel. The RED and BLK terminals are used to provide power while YEL and GRN are clock and data.
The 4 Keybus terminals of the panel must be connected to the 4 Keybus terminals or wires of
all modules.
The following conditions apply:
• Keybus should be run in minimum 22 gauge quad (0.5mm), two pair twist preferred
• the modules can be home run to the panel, connected in series or can be T-tapped
• any module can be connected anywhere along the Keybus, you do not need a separate Keybus wire run
for keypads, zone expanders etc.
• no module can be more than 1,000'/330m (in wire length) from the panel
• shielded wire is not necessary unless wires are run in an area that may present excessive RF noise or
interference

OtherDevices
Read the manufacturer’s literature carefully to determine the maximum current requirement (during
activation or alarm) and use this value for loading calculations. Do not allow connected devices to exceed
the system capabilities during any possible operational mode.
2.5 Assigning Zones to Zone Expanders
The main panel contains zones 1 to 8. Additional zone expanders may be added to increase the number
of zones on the system. Each zone expander consists of two groups of 4 zones and each group must be
configured to assign the specific zones to the expander. This is done by setting the jumpers located on
the expander to the proper settings.
Before a zone expander will work properly the jumpers must be set so the panel can deter-
mine the correct zone assignment .
The following are the jumper settings for different zone assignments:
Expander Zones Jumpers System Zones Assigned
Group A (Zones 1-4) J1 J2 J3
Group B (Zones 5-8) J4 J5 J6
ON ON ON Zones not enabled for hardware operation
OFF ON ON Zones not enabled for hardware operation
ON OFF ON Zones 9 - 12
OFF OFF ON Zones 13 - 16
ON ON OFF Zones 17 - 20
OFF ON OFF Zones 21 - 24
ON OFF OFF Zones 25 - 28
OFF OFF OFF Zones 29 - 32
The following is a diagram of the zone expander PC5108 and locations of the jumper switches.
There are two sets of jumpers, one set for the first 4 zones of the expander and one set for the
other 4 zones .
In the above diagram the jumpers settings shown indicate the first group of four zones of the expander will
be zones 9 to 12 and the second group of 4 zones will be 13 to 16.
A group of zones can be disabled if they are not required for the installation.
2.6 KeypadAssignment
There are 8 available slots for keypads. LED keypads by default are always assigned to slot 1 while the
LCD5500 is always assigned to slot 8. Keypads can each be assigned to a different slot (1 to 8) which
offers two advantages. The panel can supervise the keypad connection to indicate a trouble condition if it
is removed. Also keypads can be assigned to operate a specific partition or operate as a global keypad.
2.6.1 How to Assign Keypads

If a module is connected but does not show as being present, it may be due to any of the following reasons:
• it is not connected to the Keybus
• if there is a Keybus wiring problem
• if the module is more than 1,000'/330m from the panel
• if the module does not have enough power
• if the PC5132 does not have any devices added
2.8 Removing Modules
If a module is no longer required on the system the panel must be told to no longer supervise the module. To
do this remove the module from the Keybus and perform the Enable supervision function again ( See Section 2.7

Partition Master Codes
By default the Partition Master Codes are not programmed. They must be programmed by the System
Master Code. A Partition Master, once programmed, can be used to arm and disarm the Partition it is
assigned to. In addition, a Partition Master can program the 32 User Codes to operate on the Partition it is
assigned to and program the Partition Duress Code.
Partition Duress Codes
By default Partition Duress Codes are not programmed. They must be programmed by the System Master
Code or the Partition Master Code for that Partition. Once programmed if the Duress Code is used any
time, the panel will activate a silent Duress alarm
(See Section 5.7 “Communicator - Reporting Codes”) .
UserCodes
By default the 32 User Codes are not programmed. They must be programmed by the System Master
Code or Partition Master Code. Once programmed the User Code can be used to arm or disarm any
Partition it is enabled for. In addition, each User Code can be enabled or disabled for bypass ability
(See
Section 3.4 “[ ✱ ] Commands, [ ✱ ] [1] Zone Bypass”) and for accessing the system by the Escort5580.

3.2 Arming /Disarming
The system cannot be armed unless the ‘Ready’ light is on. If the ‘Ready’ light is not on make sure all
protected doors and windows are secure and stop movement in areas covered by motion detectors.
When the ‘Ready’ light is on enter any valid Access Code. As each digit is pressed the keypad will beep.
If an incorrect code is entered the keypad will emit a steady 2 second beep to indicate the code was not
correct. If the code is correct but the ‘Ready’ light was not on the panel will beep six times rapidly followed
by a long two second beep to indicate the system was not Ready. When the correct code is entered and
the system is Ready the panel will beep six times rapidly and the ‘Armed’ light will turn on. Exit the
premises through the designated entry/exit door. Other methods of arming are available
(See Section 3.4

3.3 Auto Bypass (Shall not be used on UL Listed systems)
When the system is armed and any zone or zone(s) on the system have been programmed as Stay/Away
the panel will immediately turn on the ‘Bypass’ light. It will then monitor all zones programmed as Delay 1
and Delay 2. If no delay type zone is violated by the end of the exit delay the panel will bypass all Stay/
Away type zones. The ‘Bypass’ light will remain on to inform the home owner that the interior protection
has been automatically bypassed by the panel. If a delay zone is violated during the exit delay, the Stay/
Away zones will be active after the exit delay expires.
This is a convenience for the user that wishes to arm the panel while at home. The user does not have to
bypass the interior manually.
The user can add the Stay/Away zones back into the system at any time by entering the [✱] [1] keypad
command
(See Section 3.4 “[ ✱ ] Commands, [ ✱ ][1] Zone Bypass”) .
Other methods of Stay arming are available
(See Section 3.5 “Function Keys”) .

To bypass a zone:
1. Enter [✱] [1] (access code if required).
2. The keypad will flash the ‘Bypass’ light and turn on the zone lights for any zones already bypassed.
3. Enter the 2 digit zone number to bypass the zone.
4. The keypad will turn on the zone light.
5. Press [#].
All zones that were lit when the [#] key was pressed are now bypassed. The ‘Bypass’ light will be on
steady to indicate zones are bypassed.
To un-bypass a zone:
1. Enter [✱] [1] (access code if required).
2. The keypad will flash the ‘Bypass’ light and turn on the zone lights for any zones already bypassed.
3. Enter the 2 digit zone number to un-bypass the zone.
4. The keypad will turn off the zone light.
5. Press [#].
All zones that were lit when the [#] key was pressed are now bypassed. If no zones were lit, the ‘Bypass’
light will be off and no zones will be bypassed.
When a Partition is disarmed all manually bypassed zones will be un-bypassed.
