Programming SECURITY Transmitters Using Custom Options
1.
Plug the free end of the programming cable into the programming header on one of the Security transmitters. (Refer to the
transmitter’s user manual to access its programming header.)
2.
Follow the "Adding RF Points" instructions in the D2000 Series Keypad Diagnostics manual to program an identification
code (ID) into the transmitter and to program the transmitter with the desired custom options. Stop when the keypad dis-
play shows the following:
(where nn is the transmitter point number to be programmed)
3.
Note that the SECURITY LED is flashing to show that a Security device is about to be programmed.
4.
Set the DIP switches located above the CUSTOM OPTIONS pushbutton switch to the desired transmitter options. (See
Figur e5 on page4.) The meaning of the switch settings is as follows:
5.
Indicate to the Expander that these options are desired by pressing the CUSTOM OPTIONS pushbutton switch one time.
The SELECTED LED beneath the DIP switches should start flashing. (Note that whenever CUSTOM OPTIONS is
selected for a transmitter, its check-in time will be set to 60 seconds.)
6.
Decide if the supervision window (or supervision interval) for the transmitter should be extended from the setting chosen
when programming the control panel (either 4 or 12 hours). The options are to extend to 96 hours or to “infinite” hours.
(Extending to infinite hours simply means that the receiver is programmed not to ever look for check-ins from that trans-
mitter.) Extended time options might be useful when supervising pendant transmitters that are out of the Expander’s
receiving range for days or weeks at a time.
To extend the supervision window to 96 hours, press the EXT’D SPVN WINDOW pushbutton one time. The SELECTED
LED above this pushbutton should begin to flash at the same rapid rate as the SECURITY and CUSTOM OPTIONS LEDs.
To extend the supervision window to infinite hours, press the EXT’D SPVN WINDOW pushbutton one more time. The
SELECTED LED above this pushbutton should continue to flash, but at a much slower rate than the SECURITY and
CUSTOM OPTIONS LEDs.
7.
Continue to follow the Keypad Diagnostics manual’s instructions except that instead of pressing the transmitter tamper
switch, press the transmitter’s reset pushbutton switch to activate the programming. (Be sure the programming cable i
still connected.) Note that all of the flashing LEDs that have to do with supervision time or programming options change
from flashing to solid. (See Figure 5 .) This shows that the programming was completed and the changes have been
accepted by the Expander.
8.
Remove the programming cable from the transmitter and put the transmitter’s cover back on.
9.
Follow the above procedure to program all other Security transmitters that need custom programming options.
