RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION

The Following Recommendations for the location of fire and burglary detection devices help provide proper coverage for the protected
premises.

Recommendations for Smoke and Heat Detectors

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National
Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.

•

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as
follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each separate sleeping area, and on each
additional floor of a multi
-floor family living unit, including basements. The installation of smoke detectors
in kitchens, attics
(finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally recommended.

•

F

or additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat
or
smoke detectors
in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s),
kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

In addition, we recommend the following:
•

Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.
•

Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke could be
blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.

•

Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, air conditioners or humidifiers) are
used.

•

Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.

•

Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where alarm control connections to an A
C
source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could prevent the control from report
ing a fire
or an intrusion.


THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR TEMPORAL PULSE SOUNDING OF FIRE
NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.




Recommendations for Proper Intrusion Protection
•

For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or premises. This would i
nclude
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. This ensures that alarm signals can be sent to the alarm
monitoring station in the event that the communications are out of order (if connected to an alarm monitoring station).


This
First Alert Pro
security system is designed for use with devices manufactured or approved by Resideo Technologies, Inc., through
its subsidiary Ademco Inc. (“Resideo”). Your security system is not designed for use with any device that may be attached to your
security system's touchpad or other communicating bus if Resideo has not approved such device for use with your security system.
Use of any such unauthorized device may cause damage or compromise the performance of your security system and affect the
validity of your Resideo limited warranty. When you purchase devices that have been manufactured or approved by Resideo you a
cquire
the assurance that these devices have been thoroughly tested to ensure optimum performance when used with your security system
.

STEP 2 -
Mounting and Wiring the Control
Panel

Cabinet
Mounting and Tampers

Mount the C
ontrol
Panel
cabinet
to a sturdy wall in a clean, dry environment
, which is not readily accessible to the
public
. Use
fasteners
or anchors (not supplied) with the cabinet mounting holes.
1. Open the cabinet door fully and
, if required,
remove it by pulling to the down, towards the back of the cabinet
.
2. Use the rear wiring entry or remove the cabinet knockouts needed for the wiring entry.

3. Mount the control cabinet to a sturdy wall in a clean, dry area, which is not readily accessible to the general public, using
fasteners
or anchors (not supplied) with the six
cabinet mounting holes.
4. Install Wall Tamper screw.
•

Secure the wall tamper with an anchor and screw. If an intruder attempts to pull the cabinet off the wall, the perforated tamper
will remain on the wall, disengaging the rear tamper on the panel board.

•

If disarmed, it will go into trouble and, if armed, it will go into alarm and send the respective report.
5. Install the PROLTE Series Communicators [a], PROWIFIZW/PROWIFI [b], VISTAHTKVRWL
Wireless Converter [c] and/or VISTA
HISO
[d].

6. When installation, wiring, and programming are completed, install the cabinet door, and secure it with the provided screw or option
keylock (P/N CAMLOCK-
HYB).

7. Cover
Tamper

•

The
cabinet door has a tamper post
that
, when
closed, engages the tamper switch on the front of the panel board. When opened,
it generates a trouble condition when disarmed or an alarm when armed and sends
the respective report to the C
entral
Station
.
•

This
tamper cannot be disabled and will not prevent arming when activated.

•

Required for the PROWLTOUCH/PROWLTOUCHC enrollment process.

Hardwire
d Zones

Each hardwired zone 1
-8 can be used for burglary or fire devices and is defaulted for use with a 2K (red, black, red, gold) EOLR. Zone 1
must use a 2k ohm resistor, but zones 2-
8 can scan the zone, detecting the current resistor value (done during zone setup in
programming). Use the diagrams
below to wire devices to the zone(s) with
an EOLR
. All devices and zones are setup, programmed,
and tested locally or via
AlarmNet
360
.
While the diagrams below show 2 contacts per zone
to show the concept
, it is recommended to have only one contact per zone for the
following reasons:

1.

Allows each zone
to have a Zone Descriptor specific to that contact e.g. Front Door, Kitchen Window, etc.
2.

If a proble
m occurs with a contact
, it will be easier to troubleshoot than having multiple contacts wired.

Normally Open and Normally Closed Zones with 2K EOLR

Normally Open Zones/ N.O. EOLR Zones

1. Connect open circuit devices in parallel across the loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR across the loop wires at the last device.
2. Enable normally open/EOLR zones using Zone Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt.


Normally Closed Zones/ N.C. EOLR Zones

1. Connect closed circuit devices in series in the high (+) side of the loop; for EOLR zones, connect the EOLR in series followi
ng the last
device.
2. Enable normally closed/EOLR zones using Zone Programming mode, “Hardwire Type” prompt.


End of Line Resistor (EOLR) Notes

•
If the EOLR is not at the end of the loop, the zone is not properly supervised, and the system may not respond to an “open” o
n the
zone.

•
Zone 1 is intended for EOLR
only.

device(s) in parallel with 2K EOLR

PROH-017-V0

PROH-018-V0



IMPORTANT:

If the EOLR is not connected to the last device on the end of the line, the zone circuit will not be
properly supervised.

Zone Voltages

Voltages on the zones will change
with respect to the 2K EOLR
depending on the state of the contact. For Burg and Panic zones, an
opened or a shorted condition will trigger
the zone into a Fault or Alarm. For Fire and Carbon Monoxide (CO) zones, an open will trigger
a Trouble, whereas
a short will trigger an Alarm.

NOTES:

•

2-Wire Smoke voltage is measured between
Z1 and GND
and you should receive 12VDC. However, to verify the proper zone
functionality meter between Z
- (negative) and any ground on the panel and use the table above
to verify voltages.

•

2-8 voltage is measured between Zn
(n = 2 to 8) and GND
and use the table above to verify proper voltages.

•

Each zone has a 300
-ohm tolerance above and below t
he necessary 2K resistance. (i.e
., Resistances can swing from 2.3K down to
1.7K before the zones will activate.
)

•

Use
ONLY
2K resistors. Using other value
resistors, such as a 2.2K, can potentially cause the zone(s) to
false alarm
due to it being
only 100 ohms from being out of tolerance
.

•

Although zone 1 is a powered zone for 2
-wire smoke detectors, it can be used for burglary devices instead
. If 2
-wire s
mokes are
used, they must be connected
on zone 1.

2.

The 12VDC sounder output

Bell Supervision

Bell supervision is enabled by defau
lt which will supervise the sounder
circuit for an opened condition while the Alarm Output is inactive
and a shorted condition while active in alarm
condition
. Supervision requires the supplied 820
-ohm resistor (gray, red, brown)
[2]
to be
connected on
the last sounding device on the end of the line. Do not connect the resistor directly to the bell output terminals because
this will not properly supervise the bell circuit. The bell output will always have 4.6Vdc
(without resistor)
for supervision purposes, even
if supervision is disabled in programming. Connecting the 820
-ohm resistor will bring that voltage down to 0Vdc.

NOTES:

•

If a high impedance sounding device is used, such as a siren driver, the bell supervision resistor may need to
be
installed at the
device, else the 4.6V supervision voltage may trigger the siren driver
while
in the disarmed state.

•

Total current drawn from this output cannot exceed 2 amps. Exceeding
2 amps will overload the power supply, or may cause the
internal
electronic circuit
, prote
cting the sounder output
, to activate, preventing the sounder from working
.
•

The control panel is reliant on the back up battery, as it supplies the current to drive the siren.
If there is a Low Battery condition, the
bell output may not operate properly.

•

The
Alarm O
utput
’s logic of “S
ounding per
Zone per Armed P
eriod
” wi
ll follow “
Swinger Suppression”
(default 2). E.g. If the Front Door
triggers an alarm and the bell output times out after 4 minutes, the bell will restart if the Front Door is triggered again, but no more.
Any burg zone will only trigger the sounder twice in an armed period, unless the option for Swinger Suppression is changed.


UL

•
Use only UL Listed sounding devices for UL installations.
•
Bell supervision is required for fire alarm installations.

•
The total current drawn from the alarm output and the

auxiliary power o
utput,
combined, cannot exceed 200mA. In addition, the
sounding device must be a UL Listed audible signal appliance rated to operate i
n a 10.2
-13.8 VDC voltage range
and must be
mounted indoors.

ies positive and negative connection [2].


NOTE:
The Control Panel features reverse polarity and short protection in
case it is accidentally wired incorrectly.


IMPORTANT:
The Control Panel will not power up on battery
power only. There is no option to bypass this. Once powered up
with the DC transformer, the battery will maintain power to the
Control Panel if primary DC power is lost.

Battery Supervision
The C
ontrol
Panel
checks the battery connection to ensure the battery is connected every
2 minutes. If the battery is disconnected at
the time of the
2-m
inute check, it will initiate a
Low Battery condition.

NOTES:

•

It performs a 2
-minute load test on the battery every 4 hours to ensure the battery can sustain a charge under a load.

•

If the battery voltage
falls below 11.5V
DC
during the test, then, the battery is unable to sustain a charge under a load and the C
ontrol
Panel
will initiate a Low Battery condition. At this point, the battery should be replaced.


•

The 4
-hour timer restarts when the panel is reset or
when
power
is
cycled.

•

Entering Walk Test mode will NOT initiate any battery test.

Battery
Saver

If the Control Panel
loses primary
power,
it will shut down once the battery voltage falls below 10.2
VDC
, preventing the battery from
being completely discharged. This will
assist the Control
Panel
in recharging the battery when primary power
is restored.
NOTES:

•

The charging voltage to the battery is 13.6
5Vdc
.
•

The Green AC LED on the Control Panel
will stay lit solid if primary power is present. If primary power is lost, this LED will turn off and
the Red Battery LED will
come on.

Wireless Devices

Zones

All devices and zones are setup, programmed, and tested via AlarmNet 360. The Control Panel supports up to 64
total wireless zones;
64
of which can be PROSIX
Series Wireless while any of them can be 5800 Series or another technology:

•
PROSIX
™ Series Wireless are both compatible with the VISTAH3/VISTAH3CN
Control Panel.

•

5800
™ Series Wireless technology requires the VISTAHTKVRWL
Module.
Communicates with wireless devices that transmit on the
following frequencies 319.5MHz, 345MHz, 433.42 and 433.92MHz. Refer to the PROTAKEOVERH
Compatibility chart for a list of
compatible devices.
Only one of these technologies can be used at one time.


IMPORTANT:

Once paired,
PROSIX

Series transmitters cannot be used with another Control Panel until they are unpaired
(deleted) from the current Control Panel. When being unpaired, the transmitters must be powered up and within range of the
Control Panel, so the transmitters can receive the unpairing signal. Some
PROSIX
transmitters can be defaulted manually
within 24hrs of being paired to the Control Panel. Check the installation instructions of specific transmitters for details.

Range
The range of any wireless device will ultimately depend on the building construction. The ranges specified below are typical
for most
installations.

•

PROSIX
Series Wireless has a nominal range of 300+ feet @ 2.4GHz.
NOTE:
PROSIXMINI's range is 200 feet.

•

5800
Series Wireless has a nominal range of 200 feet @ 345MHz.
Frequency Agility

Communications between the Control Panel and PROSIX
Series transmitters are automatically monitored by the panel. When excessive
environmental interference (i.e. from Wi
-Fi routers) is detected on the 2.4GHz channel, the Control Panel will automatically switch to a
quieter channel to allow clearer communication.
One
-Go
-All
-Go

PROSIX
Series transmitters are bi
-directional, so they not only send signals to the Control Panel, but they also receive signals from the
Control Panel. If enabled in programming, the Control Panel will send a signal to all smoke / CO devices
, causing them all to sound
when a fire or CO alarm is triggered. This also applies to PROSIX
Series Keypads / Touchscreens
and Sirens, which will all sound for
burg alarms as well.

Smoke / CO Maintenance

The
PROSIX
Series smoke detectors and smoke / CO combo detectors can send Maintenance
signals when they become too dirty to
detect smoke or if they become too sensitive. End
-of-Life (EOL) is also supported for CO detectors.

Transmitter Supervision
Each transmitter is supervised by a check
-in signal that it sends to the Control Panel. If at least one check
-in is not received from each
supervised transmitter within a 4
-hour period, the "missing" transmitter’s zone number(s) and "Supervision" will be displayed and will
initiate a trouble signal, no matter if the panel is armed or disarmed. The supervision for a transmitter can be disabled by programming
it as “Unsupervised” so that it may be carried off the premises, such as a panic button. If set for Unsupervised, the Control Panel will
ignore ONLY the supervision signals it receives from that transmitter but will still recognize all other signals, including L
ow Battery.
Both
PROSIX
and
5800
Series transmitters have built
-in tamper protection and will initiate a trouble condition if the Control Panel is
disarmed and an alarm if it is armed. Wireless keys are not supervised.

•

PROSIX
Series Burg transmitters send a check
-in signal every 60 minutes with a 4
-hour panel check.

•

PROSIX
Series Life Safety transmitters send a check-
in signal every 60 seconds with a 200
-second panel check. These include
smoke / CO detectors, sirens, and keypads.

•

5800
Series transmitters send check
-in signal every 70
-90 minutes with a 4
-hour panel check.

•

A power cycle of the Control Panel or a “System Reboot” via touchscreen will restart the 4
-hour timer.

•

In Canada, the RF supervision period is 3 hours for both Burg and Fire devices.

Wireless Devices
(Continued)

Transmitter Battery Life

Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4
–10 years, depending on the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device
being used. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as large swings in temperature may all reduce the ac
tual
battery life in any installation. The wireless system can identify a true low battery condition, thus allowing the dealer or end user time to
arrange a change of battery and maintain protection for that point. Batteries should be replaced within 2 weeks of going int
o a low
battery condition.


IMPORTANT:

PROSIX

and
5800

Series transmitters draw quick bursts of current during transmission, then sit idle with very
nominal current draw. Most batteries are not designed for this type of use, therefore, only batteries listed as compatible
should be used to attain if the expected battery life. Each transmitter’s Installation Instructions lists compatible battery
manufacturers and their part numbers. When other non
-approved batteries are used, the quick bursts of current draw kill the
battery cells pr
ematurely causing them to go low in a matter of months and can also cause unpredictable results. Other low
-
quality batteries have not been UL tested and pose a safety hazard if used.

Testing Signal Strength
This system does not have a specific test mode for checking wireless signal strength, however, the battery status and signal strength
for PRO
SIX
Series transmitters are displayed in AlarmNet 360.
Important Security Notice

Please inform the user about the security importance of their wireless keyfob and what to do if it is lost. Explain that the
wireless key
is similar to their key or access card. If lost or stolen, another person can compromise their security system. They should
immediately notify the Dealer/Installer of a lost or stolen wireless key fob. The Dealer/Installer will then remove the wire
less key fob
programming from the system.

Keypad / Touchscreen Setup

All keypads and touchscreens, wireless and hardwired, must be paired with the Control Panel
. After putting the system into Keypad
Enrollment Mode
, power up each device or initiate the pairing sequence individually to get it paired with the system. They will not
power up on battery only; they must be powered up with their supplied transformer.

PRO
SIX
LCDKP Wireless Alpha Keypad

The PRO
SIXLCDKP wireless alpha keypad will attempt to pair automatically upon power up. If it is not paired during power up, any
button can be pressed or power cycle the unit to restart the pairing process. It can be either wall or desk mounted. Desk m
ounting
requires the optional PRO
SIXLCDDM kit. For additional information refer to the PRO
SIXLCDKP Installation and Setup Guide (p/n 800
