Section 2 - Planning a Partitioned System Master Keypad Setup and Operation Although this system has 8 actual partitions, it provides an extra partition strictly for the purpose of assigning keypads as "Master" keypads for the system. Any keypad you assign to Partition 9 in #93 Device Programming Mode will be a "Master" keypad.
Page 23
VISTA-100 Installation Instructions A Master keypad uses the same panic buttons as Partition 1. Master keypad panics are sent to Partition 1, and will activate on Partition 1. Therefore, panics must be programmed for Partition 1.
The rest of the system will be armed. In addition, the following dialer reports will be sent to the central station, if you programmed them (in #93 Report Code Programming Mode): • Exit Error by User (this is not sent if using ADEMCO High Speed format)
VISTA-100 Installation Instructions • Exit Error by Zone (this is sent as a regular alarm if you are using ADEMCO High Speed format) • Bypass reports Recent Close Report The Recent Close Report notifies the central station that an alarm has occurred within 5 minutes of arming.
