Programming Alarm Output Configuration:
1) Select alarm output trip options according to the following table. Set jumpers on the OUTPUT CONFIGURATION
SELECTOR as indicated.
Pins 1-2 Pins 3-4 Output Trip Mode
Off Off Follow
On Off Momentary
(Output will remain on for 4 to 10 seconds from last alarm transmission.
Output will stay on during continuous alarm transmissions.)
Off On Latch
On On Toggle
(After releasing the button allow at least 5 seconds between transmissions
to toggle devices on and off.)
WARNING: Do not use the FA404 toggle mode in applications requiring precision control or timing.
Programming transmitters:
1) Select Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) transmitter contact by positioning the jumper on the
receiver's 3-pin transmitter external contact selector.
2) Plug programming cable to 3-pin TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING HEADER on the receiver. Orientation of the cable
connnector to the header pins makes no difference.
3) Press the TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING BUTTON on the receiver. Hold for at least 1 second to select the
transmitter. The receiver goes into program mode. Continue pressing until the desired transmitter is selected (1-
4). A flashing LED indicates that a point has not been previously programmed. Program mode ends as soon as
the transmitter is programmed or times out after 30 seconds.
4) Connect the programming cable to 3-pin header on transmitter. Orientation of the connector to header pins does
not matter.
5) Press the transmitter reset button for at least 2 seconds. (Refer to pages 6 and 7 for locations of transmitter
reset buttons.)
6) If programming is successful, the program point LED will change from flashing to steady when the reset button is
released.
Note: Any combination of N/O or N/C transmitters can be programmed.
Replacing one transmitter with another:
1) Before programming a new transmitter to a previously used point, delete the first transmitter as shown below.
2) Pull the battery from the first transmitter to prevent it from continuing to transmit with the same point identification.
3) WARNING: Inovonics strongly advises against using more than one transmitter per point. Discrete
supervision is lost and the possibility exists that alarm transmissions might be missed or cancelled by concurrent
restoral or supervisory signals from identically programmed transmitters.
Deleting a transmitter:
1) Press the TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING BUTTON on the receiver to select the transmitter point number.
2) Press the RESET / DELETE BUTTON . This instructs the receiver that there is no longer a transmitter programmed to
the point. The LED will change from steady to flashing when the point is deleted.
NOTE: Transmitters which have been programmed to the receiver but which are subsequently removed or not
used must be deleted from the system to prevent occurrence of Inactive fault in 4 hours.
