Section 7. 4285 PHONE MODULE
This section provides instructions for mounting the 4285 Phone module , wiring
the Phone module and for programming the system for phone access via the
Phone module.
Installing the Phone module
General Information
The 4285 Phone module is an add-on accessory for the VISTA–10SE that
permits access to the security system via a Touch-tone phone (either on
premises or by a call-in when away).
The Phone module can announce many of the same words that would
normally be displayed on an Alpha keypad under the same system conditions.
When using the 4285 Phone module, addressable keypads must be used in
the system, but set to the non-addressable mode (address 31), i.e., do not
use a 4127 or 6127 keypad.
When properly connected, the 4285 Phone module will enable the user to do
the following via a Touch-tone telephone:
a. Receive synthesized voice messages over the phone regarding the status
of the security system.
b. Arm and disarm the security system and perform most other commands
using the telephone keypad, with voice annunciation being provided over
the phone as confirmation after a command is entered.
The phone used for phone access must have Touch-tone capability, though
Touch-tone service is not necessary (if premises uses PULSE dialing,
switchable phones must be set for Touch-tone temporarily before attempting
phone access).
A Phone Access User's Guide for phone access to the security system is
provided with the Phone module for the user of the system.

Mounting The 4285 Phone module
The Phone module may be mounted in the control cabinet if space is available
or, if this is not possible, on the side of the cabinet or adjacent to it.
When mounting the Module outside the cabinet, use the screw holes at its rear
which will permit it to be mounted horizontally or vertically (2-faced adhesive
tape may be used, if preferred). Wires can be brought out from the side or
back (a round breakout is also available on the back).
Affix the Phone module’s connections
label (supplied separately) to the inside
of the Phone module's cover if the cover is used. If you have installed the
module within the cabinet, affix the label to the inside of the control cabinet's
door.
Phone Module Wiring
The 4285 is wired between the control panel and the premises handset(s). It
listens for touch tones on the phone line and reports them to the control panel.
During on-premises phone access, it powers the premises phones; during off-
premises phone access, it seizes the line from the premises phones and any
answering machines.
Note: The phone lines must be in service for the phone module to function,
even when accessing the system from an on-premises phone.
