Mount the Control
1. Remove the cabinet door. Remove the cabinet knockouts
needed for wiring entry.
2. Mount the control cabinet to a sturdy wall in a clean, dry
area, which is not readily accessible to the general public,
using fasteners or anchors (not supplied) with the four
cabinet mounting holes.
3. When installation and wiring is completed, install the
cabinet door and secure by using 2 screws (supplied)
through the door's edge.
OPTIONAL KEY LOCK: If desired, a key lock can be
installed (K4445V1). See Installation Instructions for details.
4. Mount the PC Board. Refer to the diagram below. If mounting an RF Receiver inside the cabinet, remove the
receiver board from its case, then insert the top of the board into the slots at the top of the cabinet. Install the
control board below the receiver board using the clips and screws provided. Insert grounding lugs into the
left-hand terminals of the antenna blocks and secure them with the screws provided. Insert the receiver's
antennas into the blocks' right-hand terminals, and tighten the screws.
Mounting the PC Board
Optional LTE-21V Module Note: Refer to the LTE-21V Module Installation section in the
online Installation & Setup Guide for instructions on mounting this module.
Connect the Transformer & Battery
1361-GT Transformer (1361CN-GT in Canada)
• Do not plug the transformer into the AC outlet until all wiring connections to the control are complete. As a
safety precaution, always power down the control when making such connections.
Battery Connections
• After all connections to the control are completed and after AC power has been applied, connect the red and
black flying leads on the control board to the battery.
• IMPORTANT: This control will not power-up on battery alone (AC power must be applied). However, once the
system is powered up, it will operate on battery if AC is lost.
UL For UL installations and Residential fire installations, refer to the chart below for the correct battery size
required to meet the mandatory standby time.
CALIFORNIA STATE FIRE MARSHALL (CSFM) AND UL RESIDENTIAL FIRE
24-HOUR BATTERY BACKUP REQUIREMENTS
The California State Fire Marshal and UL have regulations which require that all residential fire alarm control
panels must be provided with a backup battery which has sufficient capacity to operate the panel and its attached
peripheral devices for 24 hours in the intended standby condition, followed by at least 4 minutes in the intended
fire alarm signaling condition. This control panel can meet these requirements without using a supplementary
power supply, provided that the panel's auxiliary power and bell output currents are limited as listed below.

Connect Devices, Zones, Sounder, and Phone Line
Refer to the Wiring Diagram on the reverse side for connection information. NOTE: This system uses a range of reserved addresses for each type of device.
1. Connect keypads and other addressable devices to the ECP terminals 4-7.

The length of all wire runs for both partitions combined must not exceed 1500 feet (457m) when unshielded quad conductor cable is used
(750 feet if shielded cable is used).
Standard Keypads (6150 / 6160 series)
• Keypad addresses range from address 16-23. Set each keypad's address accordingly.
NOTE: Address 16 is reserved for the first keypad and is always enabled in the control.
• Use data fields ∗190-∗196 to enable keypads and set their sounding options.
Expander Modules (4219, 4229)
Securing the Cabinet Door
• Connect desired field wiring to the module's zone terminals.
• Expander module addresses range from 07-11. Set each module's DIP address accordingly.
• Use ∗56 Menu mode to program zone characteristics.
Touchscreen Keypads (6280, Tuxedo, Tuxedo WiFi; = up to 4)
• Use of touchscreen keypads is independent from and in addition to eight (8) standard keypads.
• Set each touchscreen's address accordingly (1, 2, 5, 6; see table on back) and enable in field ∗189.
• Make sure the auxiliary current drain is within the control's limitation. Otherwise use an external power
supply to power the touchscreen keypads.
RF Receiver (5881, 5883, RF Keypad)
• 5881ENL= up to 8 RF zones; 5881ENM / 6150RF = up to 16 RF zones
5881ENH / 5883H / 6160RF = up to system maximum RF zones
• Set the receiver's address to 00 using the module's DIP switches.
• If using wireless keypads, set field ∗24 RF House ID Code appropriately.
• Do not locate the receiver or transmitters on or near metal objects. This will decrease range and/or block
transmissions.
• Do not locate the RF receiver in an area of high RF interference (indicated by frequent or prolonged
lighting of the receiver's LED; random flicker is OK).
• Do not locate RF receiver closer than 10 feet from any keypads.
Program the Control
Refer to the Programming Guide to program the control (or use Compass Downloader).
1. Enter Programming Mode: installer code + 8-0-0.
2. Change the default Installer Code using field ∗20.
3. Enter the appropriate central station phone numbers and account numbers.
4. Program the system data field options as desired.
5. Use the various menu modes to program zones, relay outputs, descriptors, etc.
6. If AVS system is installed, use the appropriate AVS Quick Program Command.
7. Program Schedules (if used): Master code + [#] + 64
Use the following commands to set test report frequency (first report sent 12 hrs after command):
installer code +[#] + [0] + 0 = test report sent every 24 hours
installer code +[#] + [0] + 1 = test report sent once per week
installer code +[#] + [0] + 2 = test report sent every 28 days
8. Enable RF button keyfobs (if used) and assign to user numbers accordingly.
9. Show the Master user how to change the default Master code:
master code + [8] + 0-2 + new code + new code again
Test the System
Sniffer Mode Test: To verify that all transmitters have been properly programmed, disarm all partitions.
1. From a keypad in partition 1, enter Installer code + [#] + 3. All programmed transmitters are displayed.
2. Fault all transmitters in turn. The display clears each transmitter as a signal is received.
3. Exit Sniffer mode: Installer code + 1 (OFF); does not automatically expire; you must exit manually.
System Test
1. Disarm the system and close all protected windows, doors, etc.
Recommended Battery (Yuasa No.)
2. Enter the Installer code + [5] (TEST), then press 0 = walk. (Option 1 = Dial checks phone line integrity.)
NP4-12 (or ADEMCO 467)
3. Listen. The external sounder should sound for about 1 second then turn off.
NP7-12
4. Fault all zones in turn and listen for three beeps from the keypad. ID of each faulted point should appear on the
NP4-12 (two) ‡
keypad display. The display clears when the zone is restored.
NP7-12 (two) ‡
5. Test all smoke and CO detectors following the manufacturer's instructions and check the display.
NPG18-12
6. When all zones have been checked, and are intact (closed), there should be no zone identification
numbers displayed on the keypad.
7. Exit test mode: security code + [1] (OFF).
