All,
I just installed an Ademco Vista15P in my home. The intrusion zones 2 through 5 are working with the motion sensors and are not a problem. However, I have two questions...
- Is there a compatible panic switch for this panel ? The old Shack brand switch throws the alarm on this panel (I have zone 6 wired as panic).
- The major issue I have... the two 5192SD two-wire smoke detectors I wired in series on zone 1 (with 2000 ohm EOL resistor on the low side as diagrammed in the manual) keep showing up with fault. I removed the 5192s and placed an EOL across zone 1, power cycled the panel and no faults were reported... so the circuit at the panel should be okay. I wired up only ONE 5192 with an EOL, power cycled panel, and I get a fault report again.
The 5192 DIP switches have not been changed from factory.. but the manual doesn't say what kind of addressing to use... SHOULD I USE THE DIP addressing, if so.. any idea what I should set the DIPS to ? Or is there something else I should be looking at here? I double-checked the wiring and pos & neg are as they should be. I tested the EOL and it is fine when compared to the rest... ~ 1.9Kohms
Thanx, Da_Cheeze
