Programming ALT ARMING Transmitter
1. Plug the free end of the programming cable into the programming header on a Security transmitters. (Refer to the trans-
mitter’s user manual to access its programming header.) When programming is completed, this transmitter will arm the
system when its alarm signal is transmitted, and disarm the system when its restoral signal is transmitted.
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 any desired custom options. Stop when the keypad dis-
play shows the following:
(where nn is the transmitter point number to be programmed)
3. Press the TRANSMITTER TYPE pushbutton two times. The flashing LED above this pushbutton should move from
SECURITY to COMMAND and then to ALT ARMING.
4. If custom programming options are desired, set the DIP switches located above the CUSTOM OPTIONS pushbutton
switch to the desired transmitter options. (See Figur e5 on page 4.) The meaning of the switch settings is as follows:
5. If custom programming options are desired, indicate this desire to the Expander 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 ALT ARMING LED. To extend the supervi-
sion 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 ALT ARMING LED.
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 is
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 Alt Arming transmitters.
Testing
After at least one transmitter is programmed, the operation of the Expander can be tested as follows:
1. Check to see that the REPLY LED is still flashing. This shows that the Expander is communicating with the panel.
2. Put one of the transmitters into its alarm or command condition. This should cause the panel and keypad to give the cor-
rect alarm or command response.
It is recommended that all transmitters be tested before installation. If a particular transmitter does not give the correct
response, troubleshoot the problem by following the "Point Status" instructions in the D2000 Series Keypad Diagnostic man-
ual and the "Troubleshooting with the Cover Off" instructions in this manual.
