To disarm the IDS 816 system using a key-switch or remote:
1. Activate the remote or key-switch. 2. The system will disarm, and the remote indicator (if installed) will turn off. 3. If the siren toot on disarm option is enabled, the siren will provide a double toot when the panel is disarmed.
Alternatively, entering a valid user code will also disarm the system.

Introduction to the IDS 816 The IDS 816 is a versatile, microprocessor based eight zone Alarm Panel. It has two partitions and can be expanded to sixteen zones. Most features are optional and may be programmed either directly through the keypads or via the telephone system, using the IDS download software and appropriate modem.
Installation and Wiring Please refer to Figure 1: Connection Diagram and familiarise yourself with the following sections. Figure 1 : Connection Diagram without Tamper per Zone IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
If the panel is armed and a tamper condition occurs an audible alarm will register and a tamper condition AND zone violation will be reported. Panic zones always register panic and tamper conditions. The colour codes for the 12K and 4K7 resistors are as per in Figure 4. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
3 above zone 16 would indicate the violation. The colour codes for the 4K7 and 12K resistors are shown in Figure 4. Figure 4 : Resistors (Tamper per Zone or Zone Doubling) IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
Installing an Expander Module When installing an expander module refer to the document supplied with the module. Note that only one (8-zone) expansion module may be added to the IDS 816 Alarm Panels. Connecting the Telephone Communicator Refer to Figure 1. Connection Diagram (Page 9).
AC power. Release the reset switch approximately 2 seconds after reapplying the power. Factory default values will now be restored to all locations and all attached keypad IDs will be defaulted. A default event will be logged and the existing event log will NOT be erased.
To enrol other devices (IDS Remote Receivers or Zone Expanders); consult the installation instructions for those devices. The IDS 816 Alarm Panels can only accept one zone expander and/or one IDS Remote Receiver. Replacing a Faulty Keypad/Device NOTE: Should a faulty keypad be REPLACED with another keypad, the following applies: Disconnect ONLY the faulty keypad.
1-4 indicate units (1’s) and zone indicator 5-8 indicate tens (10’s), and so on. To read a binary value on the keypad sum the values represented by each LED that is on, as shown in Table 1. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
Extended locations, which are double tiered and have sub-locations. Both standard and extended locations may contain further subcategories referred to as bitmapped locations. For both main categories, clear visual keypad prompts are provided which aid the programming process. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
ARMED and AWAY indicators will come on. Enter the [NEW DATA] followed by the [*] star key. A long beep will indicate a valid entry. The AWAY indicator will turn off. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
In the case of extended locations, the AWAY and ARMED indicators will remain on after the error beeps. Re-enter the correct data. There is no need to press the [#] key. Programming Location Summary A detailed description of each location and its options follows. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
Value Action Will reset all locations to the factory default values. (Master User Code 1234) and all keypad IDs will be defaulted. Will default the master user code to 1234 - or 123456 if 6 digits are being used. Master user code properties will also be defaulted.
Violation of a push to arm zone during the exit delay will immediately arm the panel. OUTDOOR INSTANT ZONE When the panel is armed violation of an outdoor instant zone will cause the panel to register an alarm condition. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...

A, i.e. [MODE] [0]. In the event that only 1 of the digits is programmed or an A is incorrectly programmed as a zero the code will not be reported. If domestic reporting is used, only the first digit of the reporting code is required / used. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...

Zones may be given appropriate names, like “Front Door” for zone 1, etc. When the zone is triggered, the display will indicate “Front Door”, instead of “Zone 1”. (Full instructions are included in the LCD keypad manual.) IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
Program a value from [0] to [1] [5]. A [0] will disable this location. Program zones as cross-zones in sub- location 2 of locations 1 to 16. Any single zone enabled for cross-zoning, which is violated continuously for the time specified in location 36 will also register an alarm condition. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...

Trouble conditions will be reported if programmed to do so in locations 118 to 120, regardless of whether or not they are enabled for display. The trouble condition can be viewed by holding down the [7] key for one second. See “Viewing Trouble Conditions” in the User Manual. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...

If a partition has keypad lockout enabled (Page 46) this value determines the number of consecutive incorrect codes, which will activate a keypad lockout. The keypad will remain locked for the time programmed in location 44. Activating a Keypad Panic will unlock the keypad. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
AC Restoral Code The control panel will transmit this code once the AC restore delay time has elapsed. (location 39). It will however only be reported if an AC failure was registered as per location 47. IDS 816 700-283-02I Issued September 2009...
