Features
Hardwire and Optional Expansion Zones
• Provides eight hardwire zones.
• Supports up to 16 2-wire smoke detectors each on zone 1 and zone 2 (32 total).
• Triggers the built-in sounders on other hardwired smoke detectors if one smoke detector annunciates an alarm.
• Supports up to 50 2-wire latching glassbreak detectors on zone 8.
• Supports up to 24 additional expansion zones using a built-in polling (multiplex) loop.
• Supports up to 32 wireless zones fewer if using hardwire and/or polling loop zones.
• Provides three keypad panic keys: 1 + ✴ (A), ✴ + # (B), and 3 + # (C).
Peripherals Devices
• Supports up to 31 addressable devices, (keypads, RF receivers, relay modules, etc.).
• Supervises devices (keypads, RF receivers, and relay modules) and individual relays (up to 32), as well as system
zones (RF receivers and keypad panics).
• Provides 96 outputs using 4204 and 4204CF Relay Modules, and V-Plex Relay Modules can activate outputs in
response to system events (alarm condition), at a specific time of day, at random times, and manually using the #70
Relay Command Mode.
• Supports one additional style-Y supervised Notification Appliance Circuits using a 4204CF.
• Supports the ADEMCO 4146 Keyswitch on either of the system's two partitions.
Arming/Disarming and Bypassing
• Provides global arming capability (ability to arm all partitions the user code has access to in one command).
• Supports Exit Error Logic, whereby the system can tell the difference between a regular alarm and an alarm caused
by leaving an entry/exit door open. If the system is not subsequently disarmed, faulted entry/exit zone(s) and/or
interior zones are bypassed and the system arms.
• Supports Recent Close report, which is designed to notify the central station that an alarm has occurred within 2
minutes after the exit delay has expired.
Partitioning
• Can control two separate areas (partitions) independently, each functioning as if it had its own separate control. All
fire zones must be assigned to partition 1.
• Provides a Common Lobby partition, which can be programmed to arm automatically when the other partition is
armed, and to disarm when the other partition is disarmed.
• Provides a Master partition (3) used for the purpose of viewing the status of all partitions at the same time.
• Can display fire, burglary, panic, and trouble conditions at all other partitions’ keypads (selectable option).
Scheduling
• Can automate system functions, such as arming, disarming, and activation of outputs (e.g., lights).
• Provides an End User Output Programming Mode, allowing the user to control outputs.
