D2212,D2412,D2812
What would cause the data call button not to appear on the screen after selecting the communicate button when trying to connect to a panel using WDSRP1?
WDSRP,WDSRP2
Issue
When programming the phone number in a D4412/D6412 panel, how would a pause be entered in through keypad programming?
Solution
When a 4 second pause is needed while programming through the keypad, enter in a 13 for the nibble where you would like the pause to occur.
Issue
How do I tell if my wiring is good and all the devices are connected on the D6112 keypad bus?
Solution
Remove the data wires from terminals 11 and 13 on the control panel. Also remove the power going to those devices. Using a multimeter set to read resistance, place one lead on a data wire and the other lead on the other data wire.
The correct resistance reading should be 9K Ohms per device connected.
Number of device / Device Resistance / Wire / Max resistance
1 9 k ohms 15 k ohms 23 k ohms
2 18 k ohms 15 k ohms 32 k ohms
3 27 k ohms 15 k ohms 41 k ohms
4 36 k ohms 15 k ohms 50 k ohms
Issue
How can a REX sensor such as the DS150i or DS160 be used to shunt an armed point?
Solution
The REX sensor can be used to shunt a normally closed contact by connecting the REX relay contacts that will provide closure when motion is detected in parallel with the door point to be shunted. When these contacts close, a short will be placed across the door point. The panel will see the door as closed for the duration of the REX relay time.
Note: The REX relay Common to Normally Open and Common to Normally Closed contacts will reverse when changing from Fail Safe to Fail Secure mode. See NOTES for further clarification.
Notes
DS150i:
In Fail Safe mode, use the Yellow and Violet wires on the first relay or the Gray and Green wires on the second relay.
In Fail Secure mode, use the Yellow and Blue wires on the first relay or the Gray and Orange wires on the e second relay.
DS160:
In Fail Safe mode, use the relay contacts designated Normally Open to Common.
In Fail Secure mode, use the relay contacts designated Normally Closed to Common.
Overview
Device Comm Error displays on the keypad. Reports trouble zone 2.
Wiring issue with the devices.
Issue
Device Comm Error displays on the D636 keypad. CS is receiving a Trouble zone 2 signal.
Solution
The devices (D636, D620, D640) have a wiring issue.
All device data wiring should be connected in series.
Example: Data wire out from panel terminal 11 to the first device
Issue
What are the SDI addresses on the D6412 and D4412?
Solution
SDI Address Device Description
0 = Installer Keypad, or local connection to RAM IV
1-8 = Command Center 1 to 8
40,41 = DX8010 Telephone Control Module
50,51 = RF Receivers 1, and 2
52-55 = RF Keypads on RF Receiver 1
60-63 = RF Keypads on RF Receiver 2
101-107 = DX 2010 wired point expander
150-151 = DX 3010 Octo-Output expander
250 = DX4010 Serial RS-232 Interface module
Can the D125B be Used to Power 2 Wire Smokes on the D7112?
Yes, see technogram number (73-06116-000-C) 1993 (attached). Listings and Approvals Underwriters Laboratories lists the D7112 ControVCommunicator as a Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) for: NFPA 71 Central Station, NFPA 72 Chapter 6 Local, NFPA 72 Chapter 8 Remote Station, NFPA 74 Household Fire Warning. The D7112 also has the following Approvals: CSFM and NYC-MEA (formerly NYC-BSA).
