other control panels) in any of three different modes:
Single-Partition, Single-Panel Mode; Multi-Partition,
Multi-Panel Mode; Multi-Panel View Mode. These
modes are described later in this section.
Each PLM connects to the ECP bus on the control panel
and communicates to each PLM via an RS-485 bus (3-
wire twisted cable run) with a maximum wire-run of
4000 feet end-to-end.
•
Users 001-050 are the only users that can
perform panel linking and are automatically
assigned panel linking access when added
to the system.
•
An alpha keypad must be used for panel
linking.
•
The system may take up to 7 seconds to
respond to a command when in a panel

Panel Link Module Supervision
The Panel Link Module can be supervised for its
connection to the control panel. The module's
supervisory zone is zone 8xx, where "xx" = the ECP
address of the PLM. You must program that zone with
response type 05 (Day/Night) in Zone Programming in
the #93 Menu Mode (refer to the Programming Guide
for detailed programming instructions). If you want to
report the supervisory failure to the central station
and/or to a paging service, the appropriate reporting
parameters for that zone must be programmed.
If you want the supervisory failure of PLM(s) on other
linked control panels to display on this control panel,
they must be programmed into Zone Programming in
the #93 Menu Mode with response type 12 in this
control panel (refer to the Programming Guide for
detailed programming instructions). The panel ID
number for each module must match the panel ID
number programmed in Device Programming of its
"host" VISTA-128BPEN.
How to Use Panel Linking
Panel Linking can be used in any of three different
modes:
• Single-Partition, Single-Panel − displays status of a
partition on a remote control panel and allows
control of that remote control panel.
• Multi-Partition, Multi-Panel Mode − displays
status and allows arming/disarming of multiple
partitions at once on a remote control panel.
• Multi-Panel View Mode − displays status and
allows arming/disarming of multiple remote control
panels at a time.
NOTE: A user will not be able to access or view
partitions or panels that they have not been assigned
to.
