– 2 – IMPORTANT! PROPER INTRUSION PROTECTION For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or commercial premises. This would includ e 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 so that alarm signals can still be sent to the Central Monitoring Station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally sent over the phone lines). EARLY WARNING FIRE DETECTION Early warning fire detection is important in a home. Smoke and heat detectors have played a key role in reducing fire deaths in the Un ited States. With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we su bscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Associations National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72). These recommendations ca n be found on page 47 of this manual.

System Overview
Introduction
Congratulations on your ownership of a Honeywell Security System. Youve made a
wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in security protection
technology today. This system provides: Three forms of protection: burglary, fire* and eme rgency
At least one keypad which provides control of syst em and displays system status
Various sensors for perimeter and interior burglar y protection
Smoke or combustion detectors* designed to provide early warning in case of fire.
Your system may also have been programmed to automa tically send alarm or status
messages to a Central Monitoring Station.
* Commercial installations and some residential sys tems may not include fire
protection – check with your installer.
NOTE: Features and procedures described in this manual a pply to the
VISTA-20P/VISTA-20PSIA (VISTA-20P series) and VISTA -15P/VISTA-15PSIA
(VISTA-15P series) security systems. Differences ar e noted where applicable.
System Basics
Burglary Protection Several modes of burglary protection: Stay, Night- Stay, Away, Instant, Maximum.
STAY: arms perimeter zones only and entry delay i s on
INSTANT: same as STAY, except entry delay is off
NIGHT-STAY: arms perimeter zones and selected int erior zones; entry delay on
AWAY: arms perimeter and all interior zones, entr y delay is on
MAXIMUM: same as AWAY, except entry delay is off You can BYPASS selected zones while leaving the re st of the system armed.
CHIME mode alerts you to the opening of protected doors and windows while the
system is disarmed.
Fire Protection and Carbon Monoxide Protection Fire and carbon monoxide protection are always act ive (if installed) and an alarm
sounds if a fire or carbon monoxide condition is de tected.
If necessary, you can manually initiate a fire ala rm using the keypad (if
programmed).
Refer to the Fire Alarm System section for informa tion regarding fire protection,
carbon monoxide protection, smoke detectors and pla nning emergency exit routes.
Security Codes You were assigned a 4-digit security code (master code) during installation.
Use your security code when arming and disarming t he system, and when
performing other system functions.
Other users can be assigned different security cod es, each with different
authority levels, which define the system functions a particular user can perform.

System Overview (cont’d)
Zones and Partitions The system sensing devices have been assigned to v arious “zones,” which are
specific areas of protection (e.g., front door, kit chen window, etc.).
Zone numbers are displayed at the keypad when an a larm or trouble condition
occurs on a sensor.
Partitions (VISTA-20P Series) provide two independ ent areas of protection, with
each partition containing a group of zones that can be armed and disarmed
without affecting other zones or users.
Partitioned systems (VISTA-20P Series) can include a common zone area, which
is an area shared by users of both partitions (such as a lobby in a building).
Cross Zoning: Your installer may have set the cross -zoning feature for some of
the zones. Cross Zoning is designed so that a combi nation of two zones must be
faulted within a defined time period of one another before an alarm occurs, and
can help reduce false alarms. Once the first zone o pens, the cross zoning time
window begins, and when the second zone opens withi n that window an alarm for
both zones occurs. If one zone opens and the other zone does not open within the
time window, an error message is sent to the centra l station (code 380).
NOTE : Both zones in a cross zoning pair must protect th e same area and be in
the same partition.
Arming, Step-Arming and Disarming Burglary Protection
The system must be armed before the burglary prote ction can sense intrusions.
To arm your system, enter your security code follo wed by the desired arming key.
If programmed, you can press the [#] key in place of your security code when
arming the system (e.g., instead of entering your 4 -digit security code + [3-STAY]
to arm the system in STAY mode, you can press [#] + [3-STAY]).
You can also use the step-arming feature if progra mmed, to arm the system. This
is a function key that allows you to arm the system in one of three modes by
simply pressing the key repeatedly.
To disarm the system, enter your security code the n press the [OFF] key.
Alarms
When an alarm occurs, the keypad sounds and displa ys the zone(s) causing the
alarm. For most alarms, the external sounder also s ounds.
If your system is connected to a Central Monitorin g Station, an alarm message is
also sent. ( Delayed Reporting Note: Message reporting is delayed 30 seconds
by default to reduce false alarms. If desired, this delay can be removed or can be
increased to 45 seconds. See your installer if you want the delay time changed.)
To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the syst em.
Memory of Alarm When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad display s the number(s) of the
zone(s) that caused the problem, and displays the t ype of alarm.
The message remains displayed even after disarming the system, but can be
cleared with another “off” sequence.
– 7 – System Overview (cont’d) Function Keys The “A,” “B,” “C,” and “D” keys can be programmed to perform various functions. Functions include: activate a panic alarm, arm the system, provide step arming, switch lights on/off, send a message to a pager, di splay Time/Date, and start a programmed Macro sequence. Paging Feature If programmed, the system can automatically send c ertain system condition messages to up to four (VISTA-20P Series) or two (V ISTA-15P Series) pagers. The pager displays code numbers identifying the ty pe of condition that has occurred. Scheduling Your system can be programmed to automatically per form certain functions (e.g., arm the system) at a predetermined time each day. Using the Voice Message Center (if Voice Keypad is installed) Voice keypads feature a voice message center that lets you record and playback one message. The message can be up to 2.5-minutes long The message remains in memory until a new message is recorded. The volume control is adjustable. Refer to the procedures below when using the Message Center functions. 1OFF 4MAX 7INSTANT READY 2AWAY 5TEST 8CODE 0 3 STAY 6BYPASS 9CHIME # ARMED READY 6160V-003-V0 MESSAGE MIC SPEAKER LCD DISPLAY FUNCTION KEYS MICROPHONE LEDs RECORD VOLUME PLAY STATUS VOICEFUNCTION Message Center Functions To… Press these keys… Notes… record a message # FUNCTION + 0 VOICE + 1 OFF RECORD The red MESSAGE LED lights.

– 8 – About The Keypads General Information Your keypads allow you to control all system functions and feature the following: A telephone style (digital) keypad Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) that show the nature and location of all occurrences Built-in sounder that sounds during alarms and tro ubles. The sounder also beeps during certain system functions and also when depre ssing any of the keys (to acknowledge the key press). Backlighting of the LCD display windows. Backlight ing turns on when any key is pressed or when entering the premises through any a ssigned entry/exit door. This feature is helpful when a keypad is located in a di mly lit area. Some keypads have a voice feature that announces t he nature and location of all system occurrences. Voice keypads also announce any faulted entry/exit or perimeter zone when Chime mode is on. Ask your inst aller if this option has been programmed for your system. IMPORTANT: If the keypad beeps rapidly upon entering the premis es, it indicates that an alarm has occurred during your absence and an intruder may s till be on the premises. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and CONTACT THE POLICE from a nearb y safe location. Your keypads are functionally the same, but may have different types of displays, depending on the type installed with your system. Alpha Display 2-line alpha display keypads feature a 2-line, 32-character alphanumeric LCD that displays system messages in f riendly English. These keypads can also be programmed with custom zone descriptors. Fixed-Word Display Fixed-Word display keypads are f unctionally identical to Alpha display keypads, but the LCD display uses pre - designated words to identify the nature and locatio n of occurrences. Voice Keypads Voice Keypads (if installed), are fun ctionally the same as other keypads, except that these keypads can provide the following: Voice announcements of system status (see Checking for Open Zones section) Voice chime, which can alert you to the opening of doors and windows while the system is disarmed (see Voice Chi me in Chime mode section) Message center, which lets you record and playback messages (see Using the Voice Message Center in the System Overview section).
