VISTA-128B

Commercial Burglary/CCTV and Access Control Platform

ADEMCO’s VISTA-128B is an eight-partition, UL/CUL Commercial Burglary Control Platform that supports up to 128 zones using basic hardwired, polling loop, and wireless zones. It also includes zones for supervision of bells, keypads, RF receivers, and relays. In addition, the control offers scheduling capabilities and allows certain operations to be automated by pressing a single button. The system has the capability to interface with an ECP Long Range Radio unit that can send Contact ID messages and an alphanumeric paging device. When connected to ADEMCO’s PassPoint system (via the Vista Gateway Module), the VISTA-128B provides a fully integrated security and access control system.

The VISTA-128B is well suited for a variety of applications as a burglary control and is supported by a diverse line of ADEMCO initiating devices. Some of the applications supported are medical and professional buildings, supermarkets, churches or synagogues, office buildings, schools, universities, strip malls, larger residences and factory or warehouse environments.

The VISTA-128B has been designed to mount quickly and easily and meets all applicable requirements for UL/CUL-Commercial Burglary installations. Use the VISTA-ULKT kit when an attack resistant enclosure is required.

Basic Hardwired Zones
Provides nine style-B hardwired zones with the following characteristics:

• EOLR supervision (optional for zones 2-8) supporting N.O. or N.C. sensors (EOLR supervision required for fire and UL burglary installations)
• Individually assignable to one of eight partitions
• Up to 16 two-wire smoke detectors on zone 1
• Four-wire smoke or heat detectors on zones 1-8 (power to four-wire smoke detectors must be supervised with an EOL device)
• Up to 50 two-wire latching glassbreak detectors on zone 8

• Must use RPM (Remote Point Module) devices
• Supervised by control panel
• Individually assignable to one of eight partitions

• Supervised by control panel for check-in signals (except certain non-supervised transmitters)
• Tamper protection for supervised transmitters
• Individually assignable to one of eight partitions

• Open/close schedules (for control of arming/disarming and reporting)
• Holiday schedules (allows different time windows for open/close schedules)
• Timed events (for activation of relays, auto-bypassing and unbypassing, auto-arming and disarming, etc.)
• Access schedules (for limiting system access to users by time)
• End User Output Programming Mode (provides 20 timers for relay control)

• A Common Lobby partition (1-8), which can be programmed to arm automatically when the last partition that shares the common lobby is armed and to disarm when the first partition that shares the common lobby is disarmed
• A Master partition (9), used strictly to assign keypads for the purpose of viewing the status of all eight partitions at the same time (master keypads)
• All zones assignable to one of eight partitions
• Keypads assignable to one of eight partitions or to master partition 9 to view system status
• Ability to assign relays to one or all eight partitions
• Ability to display fire and/or burglary and panic and/or trouble conditions at all other partitions’ keypads (selectable option)
• Certain system options selectable for each partition, such as entry/exit delay and subscriber account number

• Authority level (Master, Manager, or several other Operator levels) in each partition
• Opening/Closing central station reporting option
• What partitions the code can operate
• Global arming capability (ability to arm all partitions the code has access to in one command)
• Use of an RF (button) to arm and disarm the system (RF key must first be enrolled into the system)

At least one two-line alpha keypad (6139/6160) must be connected to the system for programming (if using keypad programming) and must remain connected to the system in order to allow the primary user to program additional user codes into the system at a later time.

Keypad Macros
Accommodates 32 keypad macro commands per system (each macro is a series of keypad commands). For example, by pressing either the A, B, C, or D key, the system can be programmed to log onto another partition, bypass Zones 2 and 3, and arm that partition in the AWAY mode. Characteristics of keypad macros are:

• Assignable to the A, B, and C keys by partition
• Other macros, (not assigned to these keys) executed by using the D key
• Each macro can be 32 characters (keystrokes) in length

• Can be programmed to activate in response to system events
• Can be programmed to activate using time intervals
• Can be used for style-Y supervised bell outputs (4204CF only)
• Can be activated manually using the #70 Relay Command Mode
• Can be supervised by control panel (zones 601-632)
• Can each have an alpha descriptor assigned to it

• Obtain system status information
• Arm and disarm security system
• Control relays

Voltage Triggers
Provides a trigger connector whose pins change state for different conditions. Used with LRR (Long Range Radio) equipment or other devices such as a remote keypad sounder, keyswitch ARMED and READY LEDs, or a printer to print the system’s event log.

Event Log
Keeps a log of different event types (enabled in programming). The event log has the following characteristics:

• Stores up to 512 events
• Can be viewed at the keypad or through the use of Compass software
• Can be printed on a serial printer using a 4100SM Module including zone alpha descriptors
• Events can be sent to an alpha numeric pager, by event category

Exit Error False Alarm Prevention Feature

• System can tell the difference between a regular alarm and an alarm caused by leaving an entry/exit door open. If not subsequently disarmed, faulted E/E zone (s) and/or interior zones will be bypassed and the system will arm
• Generates an Exit Error report by user and by zone so the central station knows it was an exit alarm and who caused it

• ADEMCO High Speed
• ADEMCO Contact ID
• Sescoa/Radionics
