A. IMPORTANT! PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building. In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system so that alarm signals can still be sent to the Central Monitoring Station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines). EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION Early warning fire detection is important in a home. Smoke and heat detectors have played a key role in reducing fire deaths in the United States.
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Associations National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72). These recommendations can be found on page 47 of this manual.

59Limitations Of This System.Warranty.–4–. System OverviewIntroduction Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell Security System. Youve made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection technology today. This system provides:. Three forms of protection: burglary, fire. and emergency.
At least one keypad which provides control of system and displays system status. Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglary protection. Smoke or combustion detectors. designed to provide early warning in case of fire. Your system may also have been programmed to automatically send alarm or status messages over the phone lines to a Central Monitoring Station.
Commercial installations and some residential systems may not include fire protection – check with your installer. NOTE: Features and procedures described in this manual apply to the VISTA-20P/VISTA-20PSIA (VISTA-20P series) and VISTA-15P/VISTA-15PSIA (VISTA-15P series) security systems.
Differences are noted where applicable.System Basics Burglary Protection. Several modes of burglary protection: Stay, Night-Stay, Away, Instant, Maximum. STAY: arms perimeter zones only and entry delay is on INSTANT: same as STAY, except entry delay is off NIGHT-STAY: arms perimeter zones and selected interior zones; entry delay on AWAY: arms perimeter and all interior zones, entry delay is on MAXIMUM: same as AWAY, except entry delay is off. You can BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the system armed. CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and windows while the system is disarmed. Fire Protection.
Fire protection is always active (if installed) and an alarm sounds if a fire condition is detected. If necessary, you can manually initiate a fire alarm using the keypad (if programmed). Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for information regarding fire protection, smoke detectors and planning emergency exit routes. Security Codes. You were assigned a 4-digit security code (master code) during installation. Use your security code when arming and disarming the system, and when performing other system functions. Other users can be assigned different security codes, each with different authority levels, which define the system functions a particular user can perform.
–5–. System Overview (cont’d) Zones and Partitions. The system sensing devices have been assigned to various “zones,” which are specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kitchen window, etc.). Zone numbers are displayed at the keypad when an alarm or trouble condition occurs on a sensor. Partitions (VISTA-20P Series) provide two independent areas of protection, with each partition containing a group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without affecting other zones or users. Partitioned systems (VISTA-20P Series) can include a common zone area, which is an area shared by users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a building).
Arming, Step-Arming and Disarming Burglary Protection. The system must be armed before the burglary protection can sense intrusions.
To arm your system, enter your security code followed by the desired arming key. If programmed, you can press the # key in place of your security code when arming the system (e.g., instead of entering your 4-digit security code + 3-STAY to arm the system in STAY mode, you can press # + 3-STAY). You can also use the step-arming feature if programmed, to arm the system.
This is a function key that allows you to arm the system in one of three modes by simply pressing the key repeatedly. To disarm the system, enter your security code then press the OFF key. Alarms. When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders sound, and the keypad displays the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is connected to a Central Monitoring Station, an alarm message is also sent. (Delayed Reporting Note: Message reporting is delayed 30 seconds by default to reduce false alarms. If desired, this delay can be removed or can be increased to 45 seconds.
See your installer if you want the delay time changed.). To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. Memory of Alarm. When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm.
The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be cleared with another “off” sequence. Phone Access. If included, a phone module permits you to access the system via a touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. When you call in, the phone module announces system status over the telephone, and you can arm/disarm the system and perform most function commands remotely using the telephone keys. Complete information for using these features is provided with the voice module.–6–. System Overview (cont’d) Function Keys.
The “A,” “B,” “C,” and “D” keys can be programmed to perform various functions. Functions include: activate a panic alarm, arm the system, provide step arming, switch lights on/off, send a message to a pager, display Time/Date, and start a programmed Macro sequence. Paging Feature. If programmed, the system can automatically send certain system condition messages to up to four (VISTA-20P Series) or two (VISTA-15P Series) pagers. The pager displays code numbers identifying the type of condition that has occurred.
Scheduling. Your system can be programmed to automatically perform certain functions (e.g., arm the system) at a predetermined time each day.Using the Voice Message Center (if Voice Keypad is installed) SPEAKER LCD Voice keypads feature a voice message DISPLAY center that lets you record and playback one message.

Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) that show the nature and location of all occurrences. Built-in sounder that sounds during alarms and troubles. The sounder also 'beeps' during certain system functions and also when depressing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press). Backlighting of the LCD display windows. Backlighting turns on when any key is pressed or when entering the premises through any assigned entry/exit door. This feature is helpful when a keypad is located in a dimly lit area. Some keypads have a voice feature that announces the nature and location of all system occurrences.
Voice keypads also announce any faulted entry/exit or perimeter zone when Chime mode is on. Ask your installer if this option has been programmed for your system. IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premises, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may still be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearby safe location.
Your keypads are functionally the same, but may have different types of displays, depending on the type installed with your system. Alpha Display 2-line alpha display keypads feature a 2-line, 32-character alphanumeric LCD that displays system messages in friendly English.
These keypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors. Fixed-Word Display Fixed-Word display keypads are functionally identical to Alpha display keypads, but the LCD display uses pre- designated words to identify the nature and location of occurrences.
