Questions and answers
How do you add a replacement (new) sensor ?
To add a new sensor to the Honeywell ADEMCO VISTA-20P:
1. Mount the Sensor: Secure the sensor in the desired location, such as a door or window.
2. Wire the Sensor: If it’s a wired sensor, connect it to the appropriate zone terminals on the control panel.
3. Enter Programming Mode:
- Enter the installer code followed by `800` to access programming mode.
4. Select the Zone:
- Use `*56` to enter zone programming.
- Choose an unused zone number.
5. Configure Zone Parameters:
- Set the zone type (e.g., entry/exit, perimeter, interior).
- Assign the appropriate response type for the sensor.
6. Enroll the Sensor (Wireless Only):
- Activate the sensor to send a signal to the panel.
- Confirm the serial number displayed matches the sensor.
7. Save and Exit:
- Press `*99` to exit programming mode.
8. Test the Sensor:
- Trigger the sensor and check if the control panel responds correctly.
This completes the process of adding a new sensor to the system.
