 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION
The Following Recommendations for the Location of Fire and Burglary Detection Devices Help Provide
Proper Coverage for the Protected Premises.
Recommendations for Smoke and Heat Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations
contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.
• Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of
the household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each separate sleeping
area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements. The installation of smoke
detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally recommended.
• For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room, dining
room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.

In addition, we recommend the following:

• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke
could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the sleeper if the door is
closed.
• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, air conditioners or
humidifiers) are used.
• Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where alarm control connections
to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could prevent the control
from reporting a fire or an intrusion.

THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR TEMPORAL PULSE

SOUNDING OF FIRE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.

Recommendations For Proper Intrusion Protection

• For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or premises. This
would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level building.

• In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system. This will ensure that alarm signals can be
sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm signals are normally
sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

HARDWIRED ZONE: If the EOLR is not at the end of the loop, the zone will not be properly
supervised, and the system may not respond to an open circuit on the zone.

3. Make Hardwired Zone Connections - Zone 1 is an EOLR supervised zone that supports both open circuit and closed
circuit devices and has a response time of 350msec. Maximum zone resistance: 300 ohms, plus EOLR
Note: The hardwire zone cannot be used as a fire zone.
a. Connect sensors/contacts to the hardwired zone terminals 6 (+) and 7 (–). Refer to the Summary of Connections
diagram.
b. Connect closed circuit devices in series in the high (+) side of the loop. The EOL resistor must be connected in
series with the devices, following the last device.
c. Connect open circuit devices in parallel across the loop. The 2000-ohm EOLR must be connected across the loop
at the last device.
4. Make External Sounder Connections - The control panel supports either a 6-14VDC piezo sounder (30mA max.) or

 Installing Wireless Zones
General Information
Zones: The control supports up to 24 wireless zones using 5800 Series transmitters, and up to 16
wireless buttons.
Range: The built-in RF receiver can detect signals from wireless transmitters within a nominal
range of 200 feet.
Transmitters: 5800 Series transmitters have built-in serial numbers that must be entered into the
system using the ✻56 or ✻83 interactive mode, or input to the control via the downloader. 5800
Series transmitters (except the 5800RL and 5827, described separately) do not have DIP switches.
Each transmitter's zone number is programmed into the system in ✻56 mode. Some transmitters,
such as the 5816 and 5817, can support more than one "zone" (referred to as loops or inputs). On the
5816, for example, the wire connection terminal block is loop 1,the reed contact is loop 2. Each loop
must be assigned a different zone number.
The 5816 and 5817 Transmitters do not have EOL supervision of their loop wiring. Therefore, for
UL Household Burglary installations, the loop wiring may not exceed 3 feet.
UL
The 5800RL, 5802MN, 5802MN2, 5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, 5804E, 5804WATCH, 5814, 5816TEMP,
5819, 5819S(WHS & BRS), and 5850(GBD) transmitters are not intended for any UL installations.

For button transmitters (RF "keys") such as the 5804 and 5801, you must assign a unique zone
number to each individual button used on the transmitter. Each button on the transmitter also has
a pre-designated loop or input number, which is automatically displayed.
House Identification
If you are using a 5804BD/5804BDV, or 5827 Wireless Keypad with 1

the system, you must program a House ID Code (01–31) in field ✻24

the same ID. House ID 00 disables all wireless keypads. An RF

House ID is not necessary for other 5800 Series transmitters; the
entry should be left at “00” (default) in those cases. The 5827 reports ••

low battery status as zone “00”. 5804BD/5804BDV 5827

Transmitter Supervision
Except for some transmitters/keypads that may be carried off-
premises (5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, 5804E, 5804WATCH, and
5827), each transmitter is supervised by a check-in signal that is
sent to the receiver at 70–90 minute intervals. If at least one check-
in is not received from each supervised transmitter within a 12-
hour period, the "missing" transmitter number(s) and "FAULT" will 5816 5806/5807/5808 5890 / 5890PI
be displayed. The supervision for a particular transmitter in the 01009-010-V1

system that may also be carried off the premises (5801, 5802MN)
may be turned off by entering it as a "UR" (unsupervised RF) type,
as described in the ✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming Mode section.
5800 Series transmitters have built-in tamper protection and will
annunciate as a fault condition if covers are removed.
Transmitter Input Types
Each of the following transmitters has one or more unique factory-assigned input (loop) ID codes.
Each of the inputs requires a programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four inputs require four button zones).
Transmitters can be entered as one of the following types (see transmitter’s instructions for appropriate
input type):
Type Description
"RF" (Supervised RF) Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low battery signals. The
transmitter must remain within the receiver's range.
"UR" (Unsupervised RF) Sends all the signals that the "RF" type does, but the control does not supervise the
check-in signals. The transmitter may therefore be carried off-premises.
"BR" (Unsupervised Button RF) These only send fault signals. They do not send low battery signals until they are
activated. The transmitter may be carried off-premises.

Installing Wireless Zones
Transmitter Battery Life
• Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4–7 years,
depending on the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device
being used. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well
as large swings in temperature may all reduce the actual battery life in a
given installation. The wireless system can identify a true low battery
situation, thus allowing the dealer or user of the system time to arrange
a change of battery and maintain protection for that point within the 5801 5802MN
system.
• Button-type transmitters should be periodically tested for battery life. ON
OF

The 5801, 5802MN, 5802MN2, 5804, 5804BD, 5804BDV, 5804E, and

F

5804WATCH button transmitters have replaceable batteries.

Using the Transmitter Sniffer Mode
Use this mode after all transmitters have been entered to check that all
transmitters have been properly programmed. 5804 /5804E
1. Enter Installer code (4112) + [#] + 3. 01009-011-V0

Note: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the central station, the system will not go into the Sniffer mode.
If so, wait a few minutes and try again.
2. The keypad will display all zone numbers, which have a non-zero Zone Type (even if serial
numbers were not learned yet). Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to send a
signal. As the system receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone number of that
transmitter will disappear from the display. The transmitters may be checked upon
installation, or in an installed system.
3. When all transmitters have been checked, exit Sniffer mode. Enter Installer Code (4112) +
OFF.
Notes: (1) Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit (Installer Code + OFF) Sniffer mode to return to normal
operation.
(2) All BR-type units must physically be activated to clear the display, since they do not automatically send check-in signals.
(3) When one button of a transmitter (RF, UR, or BR) is activated, all zones assigned to other buttons on that transmitter are
cleared. This also applies to 5816 and 5817 transmitters that have multiple loops (zones).
(4) Any transmitter that is not “entered” will not turn off its zone number.
Go/No Go Test Mode
Note: Encrypted (high-security) devices must be activated while the system is in Go/No Go Test Mode. Refer to the transmitter’s
installation instructions for complete details.
The Go/No Go tests will verify adequate RF signal strength from the proposed transmitter location,
and allow you to reorient or relocate transmitters if necessary, before mounting the transmitters
permanently.
This mode is similar to the transmitter Test mode, except that the wireless receiver gain is reduced.
This will enable you to make sure that the RF signal from each transmitter is received with
sufficient signal amplitude when the system is in the normal operating mode.
1. Enter Installer Code (4112) + [#] + 8.
2. Once you have placed transmitters in their desired locations and the approximate length of wire
to be run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw terminals (if used), fault each
transmitter.

Conducting this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter will cause inaccurate results.

Note: On button type transmitters that have been programmed to set ARM AWAY, ARM STAY, or DISARM, pressing a button will take the
system out of the Go/No Go Test mode and cause the programmed action.
a. The keypad will beep three times indicating signal reception and will display the appropriate
zone number.
b. If the keypad does not beep, reorient or move the transmitter to another location. Usually a
few inches in either direction is all that is required.
4. If each transmitter produces the proper keypad response when it is faulted, you can then
permanently mount each of the transmitters according to the instructions provided with them.
5. Exit the Go/No Go Test mode by entering: Installer Code (4112) + OFF.

Mechanics of Programming
General Programming Information
Programming options are stored in non-removable, electrically erasable, nonvolatile EEROM memory. The
system can be programmed at any time, even at the installer's premises prior to the actual installation.
Simply apply power temporarily to the Control and then program the unit as desired. There are two
programming modes:
• Data field programming (used for setting various system options)
• Interactive menu mode programming (used for programming zone information, programming Powerline Carrier
Devices, and for entering transmitter serial numbers)
The system can also be programmed remotely, using an IBM Personal Computer, a modem, and Compass Downloader
for Windows. See the Remote Programming/Control (Downloading) section.
Note: You may find it convenient to adjust the volume setting before entering the Program Mode. This will allow you to clearly hear the
feedback announcements or system beeps in the Programming Mode, of the system’s built-in speaker. To adjust the volume, press
FUNCTION + VOLUME+ [3] or [6]. Upon exiting the Program Mode, the system will reset the volume to the default value (mid level).

! Certain features differ between the LYNXR/LYNXR24 and the LYNXR-EN models. Verify the specific model being
installed prior to the system programming.

Entering Program Mode - Use one of the following methods to enter Programming Mode:
1. Press both the [✻] and [#] keys at the same time, within 50 seconds after power is applied to the Control or from
exiting Programming mode, OR
2. After power-up, enter the Installer Code (4112) + 800 (This method disabled if Program mode is exited using ✻98.)
to enter Expert Programming mode or Installer Code (4112) + 888 to enter Voice Prompt Programming
mode.
Notes: 1. If a different Installer Code has been programmed, use that code to enter the Programming mode. Once you have entered the
Program mode, data field ✻20 (the first data field in the system) will be displayed and both keypad LEDs will flash.
2. Entering Programming mode may take up to 18 seconds if the 5842 Wireless Dialer has been enabled. The system will display
“ - - “ until the Lynx enters Programming mode.
Programming a Data Field
1. Press [✻] + Field No. (for example, ✻21), followed by the required entry.
2. When you have completely programmed a data field, the keypad will “beep” three times and then automatically
display the next data field in sequence. To go to a different field, press [✻] plus the desired field number.
3. If the number of digits that will be entered in a data field is less than the maximum number of digits available (e.g.
phone number field), enter the desired data, then press [✻] to advance to the next data field.
4. If a nonexistent field has been entered, the keypad will display “EE”. Simply re-enter [✻] plus a valid field number.
To view a data field without making changes: Enter [#] + Field No. Data will be displayed for that field.
To delete an entry in a field: Enter [✻] + Field No. + [✻]. (Applies only to fields ✻40–✻44, ✻88 and ✻94).
Interactive Mode Programming (✻56, ✻80, ✻81, ✻83, ✻84, ✻85)
Press [✻] + interactive mode No. (for example, ✻56). The keypad will display the first of a series of prompts.
A detailed procedure (with displays of prompts) is provided in later sections of this manual.
Interactive Mode Used to Program
✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming Mode Zone characteristics, report codes, and serial numbers
✻80 Device Programming Menu Mode Powerline Carrier Devices
✻81 Zone List Menu Mode Zone Lists for powerline carrier activation
✻83 Enhanced Sequential Mode 5800 Series transmitter serial numbers
✻84 Assign Zone Voice Descriptors Voice descriptors for each zone
✻85 Record Custom Voice Descriptors Up to 5 custom voice descriptors for zones
Loading Factory Defaults
To load the factory defaults, enter the Programming mode, press ✻97, then press number 1, 2, 3, or 4 to select from
default tables 1-4 at the back of this manual, or press “0” if you are not selecting a default table.

! If a default table is loaded, any data that has already been programmed into the system will be changed according to
the default table selected!

✻96 resets all subscriber account numbers and CSID in preparation for an initial download.
Exiting Program Mode
✻98 inhibits re-entry into the Expert or Voice Prompt Programming modes using the Installer Code.
✻99 allows re-entry into the Expert Program mode using Installer Code (4112) + 800 or into the Voice Prompt
Programming mode using Installer Code (4112) + 888.
Note: After exiting program mode (or upon power-up), the system takes up to a minute to reset. To bypass the reset delay, press [#] + [0].

SYSTEM STATUS AND RESTORE REPORT CODES PROGRAMMING (✻59 – ✻76, & ✻89)
Program Report Codes using the interactive ✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming Mode, or codes can be entered in data
fields ✻59-✻76, ✻89. The following is a set of guidelines when programming report codes. The actual report code digits
that you enter depend upon the particular installation, and should be in agreement with you and the central station
office receiving the signals.
With a 3+1 or 4+1 Standard Format: Enter a code in the first box: 1–9, A, B, C, D, E, or F. Enter "#+10" for A
(reports a “0” on some receivers), "#+11" for B, "#+12" for C, "#+13" for D, "#+14" for E, "#+15" for F. Entering "0" in the
first box will disable a report. Entering "0" in the second box results in automatic advance to the next field.
With an Expanded or 4+2 Format: Enter codes in both boxes (1st and 2nd digits) for 1–9, or A–F, as described above.
Entering "0" in the first box will disable a report. Entering "0" in the second box will eliminate the expanded message for
that report.
With ADEMCO Contact ID® Reporting: Enter a digit in the first box to enable the zone to report. Use a different
digit for each zone until you have used up available digits. If the number of zones exceeds the number of available
digits, begin with digit 1 again. This is an "enabling" code only and is not the actual code sent to the central station
office. Entries in the second boxes will be ignored. For system status (non-alarm) codes, enter a “1” in the first box for all
the system conditions you want to send to the central station. A "0" in the first box disables the report.

 Data Field Descriptions
SYSTEM STATUS REPORT CODES (✻59–✻68)
Exit Error Report Code If the system is armed and an entry/exit or interior zone is still open
✻59 (See notes above) after the exit delay time has expired, an alarm will sound at the
keypad and external sounder. If the system is disarmed before the
end of the entry delay that immediately follows, the alarm sounding
will stop and no message will be sent to the central station. The
keypad will display “CA (CANCELED ALARM).”
If the system is not disarmed before the end of the entry delay
mentioned above, and an entry/exit or interior zone is still open, an
“exit alarm” message will be sent to the central station if an Exit
Error report code is selected in this field. The keypad will display
“EA (EXIT ALARM),” and the alarm sounding will continue until
the system is disarmed (or timeout occurs).
An Exit Alarm condition will also result if a fault occurs in an exit or
interior zone within 2 minutes following the end of the exit delay,
and an “Exit Alarm” message will be sent to the central station.
If Contact ID® format has been programmed, the message will
contain the zone number and error code 374 (Trouble–Exit Error). If
4+2 format is used, the digit entered in this field will be sent
followed by the second digit of the programmed alarm code for that
zone. If 3+1 or 4+1 format is used, only the digit entered in this field
will be sent. This message will go to the primary phone no. Under
any of these conditions, no restore message will be sent.

 ✻55 Enabling the 5842 Wireless Dialer
This is an interactive menu mode that is used to enable and program the 5842 Wireless Dialer. When
enabled, the 5842 will interface with the Lynx Control and serve as the system’s primary dialer. The 5842
receives and acknowledges RF messages from the control’s transceiver and, in response, sends reports to the
central station via the dialer. It also sends acknowledgements, supervisory and tamper RF transmissions to
the control. If the wireless dialer has tried unsuccessfully to send a report, the Lynx will attempt to report to
the Central Station via the on-board dialer (if it has been programmed for back-up reporting). The Back-up
reporting option must be selected for Follow-me, Pager and AAV operation (refer to field *49).

LYNX must be connected to the telephone line, if using the Back-up reporting option.

Wireless Dialer Setup

If the wireless dialer is enabled in Field ✻55, Lynx automatically sends the setup information to the wireless
dialer immediately after exiting the programming mode. Lynx will confirm that the 5842 wireless dialer has
successfully received the setup information by generating three beeps. If the setup information has not been
successfully received by the wireless dialer the Lynx will generate a single beep once per minute and “Fault
Zone 93” will be displayed. To prepare the dialer for setup refer to the Installation Instructions provided
with the 5842 Wireless Dialer.

Note: 1. It takes about 95 seconds for Lynx to transmit the setup information after power has been applied to the
control.
2. Entering Programming mode may take up to 18 seconds if the 5842 Wireless Dialer has been enabled. The
system will display “ - - “ until the Lynx enters Programming mode.

You must refer to these instructions or to the Programming Guide while programming the system because the keypad display
does not show prompt titles. Instead, prompts are indicated by a number/letter combination.

The prompts for ✻55 are as follows:

Ed Enable Dialer ....................................... for enabling the 5842 wireless dialer.

Er Enable Trouble/Supervisory Reports . for defining wireless dialer response to events.*

Ln Response to Phone Line Failure ......... for defining console sounder response (trouble/alarm) to a

 ✻80 Device Programming Menu Mode
Powerline Carrier devices (eg., X-10 brand devices) are programmable switches that can be used to perform
many different functions. They can be used to turn lights on and off, control sounders, or for status
indications. In this system, each device must be programmed as to how to act (ACTION), when to activate
(START), and when to deactivate (STOP). Each of these is described below.
The control supports a total of 8 output devices.

The 1332X10 transformer sends signals from the control panel through the premises AC wiring to the
Powerline Carrier Devices (which are plugged into AC outlets). Devices plugged into Powerline Carrier
Devices can then be made to perform various functions in response to commands entered at the keypads in
the security system.

UL Powerline Carrier Devices are not UL Listed for fire or burglary functions and are intended for home automation.

Programming Options Defined

The following will help you understand the programming of output devices when using ✻80 and ✻81 modes.
ACTION The "ACTION" of the device is how the device will respond when it is activated by the
"START" programming. There are four different choices of actions:
• ACTIVATE for 2 SECONDS and then reset.
• ACTIVATE and REMAIN ACTIVATED until stopped by some other event.
• PULSE ON and OFF until stopped by some other event.
• NOT USED when the device is not used.
START The "START" programming determines when and under what conditions the device will
be activated. The following START options are available:
Start by Event
1. Event is the condition (alarm, fault, trouble) that must occur to a zone or group of
zones (zone list) in order to activate the device. These conditions apply only when a
zone list is used. The different choices for "EVENT" are listed below and in the
“Programming Powerline Carrier Devices” paragraph that follows.
• ALARM Device activates upon any alarm in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• FAULT Device activates upon any opening or short in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• TROUBLE Device activates upon any trouble condition in an assigned zone in the zone list.
• NOT USED Device action is not dependent upon one of the above events.
2. A zone list is a group of zones to which the “EVENT” applies in order to activate a
particular device. Note that there are a total of 3 output device-related zone lists
that can be programmed in ✻81 menu mode; when the selected EVENT (alarm, fault
or trouble) occurs in any zone in the selected “Start” ZONE LIST (1, 2, or 3),
activation of the selected device will START.
Start by Zone Type or System Operation
• If a system operation, such as “DISARMING” or “ANY FIRE ALARM,” is to activate
the device, the appropriate choice would also be entered under the “ZONE TYPE”
option. “ZONE TYPE” is used independently of the “EVENT/ZONE LIST”
combination.
• If a "ZONE TYPE" is chosen, any zone of that response type going into alarm,
trouble, or fault will cause the device to activate as selected in "ACTION.” If the same
“ZONE TYPE” is also chosen for the STOP programming, any zone of that type that
restores will de-activate the device.
• If a "SYSTEM OPERATION" is chosen (e.g., End of Exit Time), that operation will
cause the device to activate as selected in "ACTION.” The different choices for
"ZONE TYPE" and "SYSTEM OPERATION" are listed in the “Start zone type”
paragraphs later in this section, and in the Programming Form.

–31–
✻80 Device Programming Menu Mode
STOP The "STOP" programming determines when and under what conditions the device will be de-
activated. The following options are available:
Upon Restore of a Zone List
Restore Zone List: If a "ZONE LIST" is used as the “Stop” event, the device will de-activate when all the
zones in that list restore from a previous fault, trouble, or alarm condition. This will occur regardless of
what is programmed to "START" the device; therefore, a "RESTORE ZONE LIST" would normally only be
used when a "ZONE LIST" is used to start the device.
Upon a Zone Type or System Operation
Zone Type/System Operation: Instead of using a "RESTORE ZONE LIST," a specific zone (response) type or
system operation action can be selected to de-activate the device.
• If a specific "ZONE TYPE" is chosen, any zone of that response type that restores from a previous alarm,
trouble, or fault condition will cause the device to de-activate.
• If a "SYSTEM OPERATION" is chosen, that operation will cause the device to de-activate.
During normal system operation, any devices may be manually started by keypad entry of: Code* + [#]
+ 4 + “n;” or manually stopped by keypad entry of: Code* + [#] + 7 + “n,” where “n” = the device number to
be controlled.
* Code is required for devices 7 and 8. For devices 1-6, code is not required. See User Manual for more
information.

 ✻83 Enhanced Sequential Mode
By using this mode, you can add, delete, or change the serial number of a transmitter in a zone, but retain
all other existing data that has been programmed for that zone. Note that the ✻83 Enhanced Sequential
mode requires that all zone information must first be entered using the ✻56 Enhanced Zone Programming
mode for all zones below zone number 26 (4 button key area).
Note: Any zone which already has a serial number learned in will not be accessible in ✻83 Enhanced
Sequential mode!
Certain button-type transmitters have more than one button (e.g., 5804). Note that each button must be
assigned to a different zone. Similarly, the 5816 Transmitter has contact terminals and a reed switch for use
with a magnet. If using both, each must also be assigned to a different zone.
This means that the procedures that follow must be repeated for each button-type zone below zone number
26 or contact on the transmitter. Four zone button-type devices are held in zones 26 and above. They will be
started on boundaries of zones 26, 30, 34, and 38. These four zone button-type devices will have the option to
have all information entered in this field. One entry will set the loop number, report code, zone type, and
input device type for all 4 buttons, and a second entry will enter one serial number into four zones.
Note: Use this mode only after all other zone information has been programmed, including transmitter loop
numbers except for button-type zones over zone number 26. The panel will stop at zones 26, 30, 34
and 38 and zone data can be entered as a default here.
Enter Serial Number Sequential mode by pressing ✻83. The prompts for ✻83 are as follows:
A 01 Zone Number ------------------------------------ for entering the zone number to be programmed

1A Enroll Mode -------------------------------------- Selects method of serial number or viewing

1b Enroll Serial Number ------------------------- for entering transmitter serial numbers

F Delete Serial Number------------------------- for deleting existing serial numbers

The following explains these prompts in detail. The left two columns identify the prompts and list the
available entries. The right-most column provides a further explanation of the entries.
Notes: (1) Entry of a number other than one specified will give unpredictable results.
(2) In Enhanced Sequential Mode, 4 button type keys will always be enrolled simultaneously. They will be stopped at the 4 button
boundaries of 26, 30, 34 and 38, provided the zone is free of a serial number. If the first zone of the key has a serial number
enrolled, the remaining keys cannot be programmed in sequential mode. In addition, if the zone has not been set up (duplicate
loop, missing zone type, etc.) only entries 0 (skip to the next zone) and 4 (copy the key template) will be allowed.
(3) You may find it convenient to adjust the volume setting before entering the Programming Mode. This will allow you to clearly
hear feedback announcements or system beeps.

 Remote Programming/Control
(Downloading)
General Information
The control panel can be remotely programmed from an IBM-compatible Personal Computer (PC), a HAYES
Modem, and ADEMCO’s Compass Downloader for Windows (as specified below).
UL Downloading may only be performed if a technician is at the site.

Multiple security levels protect remote programming against compromise by attempts to defeat the system.
1. Security Code Handshake: An 8-digit download ID code must be matched between the Control and
downloader.
2. Site-Initiated Remote Programming: The installer or subscriber initiates the call from the subscriber
premises (by entering Installer Code + # + 1) while disarmed. All parameters can then be downloaded via
the phone lines using a personal computer.
3. Station-Initiated Remote Programming: The operator calls the site from your office to initiate the
download call. The Control hangs up and then calls back the PC via the preprogrammed telephone
number. The unit can then be uploaded, downloaded, or controlled from your office.
4. Telco Handoff: The installer or subscriber performs a download session on the call initiated from the
site or from local laptop computer (by entering Installer or Master Code + # + 1 at the control panel).
5. Data Encryption: Data passed between the PC and the Control is encrypted for security so that it is
very difficult for a foreign device tapped into the phone line to take over communication and substitute
system-compromising information.
Equipment required to download to a system at the premises
• An IBM PC compatible computer and appropriate interconnecting cables.
• Either a HAYES brand SMARTMODEM 1200 (Level 1.2 or higher external or Level 1.1 or higher [with 4
position DIP switch] internal style), a HAYES brand Optima 336 external, a HAYES brand Optima 24
Plus FAX96, or an Ademco CIA Modem.
• Compass Downloader for Windows (at revision level supporting LYNXR, LYNXR24 or LYNXR-EN).
Initial Download: Enter Installer Code + # + 5. This sets field ✻95 to 4 rings, and system to “no call-back”
option. The download computer can then call the subscriber, make connection, and download all
programming data.
Flexible Callback: If enabled in field ✻93, the download operator can temporarily change the last 1, 2, or 3
digits (depending on selection) of the call back number. This allows the control to call back a computer other
than the one programmed, which may be helpful at times of high computer traffic. See field ✻93 for a full
description.
Remote Programming Information
LYNX must be connected to the telephone line if using Remote Programming.

The downloading system can perform many functions when in communication with the Control. Besides
uploading and downloading, the status of the system can be observed and various commands can be
initiated, as follows:
• Arm the system in the away mode; disarm the system.
• Bypass a zone.
• Force the system to accept a new program download.
• Shut down communication (dialer) functions (for nonpayment of monitoring fees in an owned system).
• Shut down all security system functions (for nonpayment for a leased system).
• Inhibit local keypad programming (prevents account takeover).

–45–
Remote Programming/Control (Downloading)
• Command the system to upload a copy of its resident program to the office.
• Set the time
• View/Modify
• X-10/ Scheduling
• Read: arming status, AC power status, lists of faulted zones, bypassed zones, zones currently in alarm,
zones currently in trouble, and RF sensors with low battery conditions; read control’s time.
Notes: (1) After the control and the PC have established valid communication, the keypad will become inactive and will display “CC.”
(2) The keypad will become active after the download communication is terminated.
(3) The detailed operation of the download functions is covered in the installation instructions for the Compass Downloader for
Windows.

Remote Programming Advisory Notes

• Keypad entries are ignored during the time interval stated above.
• A copy of the program downloaded may be printed using the IBM PC-compatible computer’s internal
report generator, when an optional printer is connected (consult your PC manual for proper printer and
connections).
• Program upload or download time is approximately one minute, fifteen seconds for a complete program.

 System Operation
Security Codes
Installer Code
The installer programs the 4-digit Installer Code initially as part of the programming procedure. The
factory default Installer Code is 4-1-1-2, but may be changed in field ✻20.
The Installer Code is the only code that can enter Programming mode and also, in normal operation
mode, is used to enter the Master Code, which allows access to the normal functions of the system.
Master Code
In normal operation mode, the Installer Code is used to enter the 4-digit Master Security Code.
To enter/change the Master code by installer, using the keypad enter:
Installer Code + [CODE key] + [02] + desired 4-digit Master Code
To change the Master code by master, using the keypad enter:

Current Master Code + [CODE key] + [02] + new Master Code + new Master Code again

Secondary User Codes

In normal operation mode, the Master Security Code can be used to assign up to 6 secondary 4-digit security
codes, including a Babysitter Code and a Duress Code. The Master Code can also be used to remove
secondary codes from the system (individually).
To assign (or change) a secondary security code, using the keypad enter:
Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (03–08) + desired Secondary Code
The system will emit a single beep when each secondary code has been successfully entered.
To delete a secondary security code, using the keypad enter:
Master Code + [CODE key] + User # (03–08)

Security Code Notes

• The Master and Secondary security codes permit access to the system for arming, disarming, etc.
• The Installer Code can disarm the system only if it was used to arm it. In addition, the Installer Code cannot disarm
the system if it was armed by pressing and holding a Quick-Arm button.
• The Babysitter Code (User Code No. 7) can disarm the system only if it was used to arm it. In addition, the
Babysitter Code cannot disarm the system if it was armed by pressing and holding a Quick-Arm button.
• Duress code (User Code No. 8) sends a special code to the monitoring station when used to perform any system
operation.. Instruct users to be careful not to use this code for normal usage.
• If a secondary code is inadvertently repeated for different users, the lower user number will take priority.
• Opening/closing reports are sent for the Installer Code as No. 01, with the appropriate subscriber number. Master
Code and set of secondary user codes are sent as Nos. 02 and 03–08, respectively, in Contact ID® format (with the
appropriate user number); in 4+2, it is 1–8. Quick arming (and open/close executed by downloader) is reported as
user 00.

Panic Keys
There are three panic key pairs that, if programmed, can be used to manually initiate alarms and send a
report to the central station.
Each can be individually programmed for 24-hour silent, audible, personal or fire emergency responses. The
panic function is activated when both keys of the appropriate key pair are pressed at the same time.
The panic functions are identified by the system as follows:
Keys Displayed as Zone
Important: For the silent panic functions
[1] & [✻] 95 to be of practical value, the system must be
connected to a central station.
[✻] & [#] 99

System Operation
Keypad Functions
The keypad allows the user to arm and disarm the system, and perform other system functions, such as
bypassing zones. Zone and system conditions (alarm, trouble, bypass) are displayed in the display window.
When an alarm occurs, keypad sounding and external sounding will occur, and the zone(s) in alarm will be
displayed on the keypad. Pressing any key will silence the keypad sounder for 10 seconds (only once).
Disarming the system will silence both keypad and external sounders. When the system is disarmed, any
zones that were in an alarm condition during the armed period will be displayed (memory of alarm). To
clear this display, simply repeat the disarm sequence (enter the security code and press the OFF key). The
keypad also features chime annunciation, and 3 panic key pairs for silent, audible, fire or personal
emergency alarms. These keys can notify the central station of an alarm condition, if that service is
connected. A summary of system functions is provided below for more detailed information refer to the
User’s Manual.

System Operation
UL Alarm audio verification cannot be used for UL installations.

Alarm Audio Verification (Two-Way Voice Feature)

This feature allows the central station operator to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way conversation with an
individual(s) at the premises. It also assists the operator in gathering information about the nature and
location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to police and fire departments. All LYNXR-Series
control panels are capable of supporting the Two-Way Voice feature, however only the LYNXR-EN has this
feature built in. The LYNXR/LYNXR24 requires the installation of the Audio Verification Module (LYNX-
AVM). For further information regarding the LYNXR/LYNXR24 Two Way Voice Feature refer to the LYNX-
AVM Installation and Setup Guide. The LYNXR-EN does not make system announcements when the Two-
Way voice feature is active.
Activation
The LYNXR-EN sends the “alarm message” followed by a “Listen-in-to-Follow message” (Contact ID® code
606) to the Central Station. The Listen-in-to-Follow message causes the Central Station’s digital receiver to
temporarily hold the phone line for approximately 1-minute. When the LYNXR-EN receives the “kissoff”
from the central station, indicating that the alarm message has been received, the Two-Way Voice (AVM)
feature is activated in the (default) “Listen Mode” and sirens and keypad sounds are discontinued. The
LYNXR-EN transmits a beep acknowledgment to the Central Station, once per second. The beep alternates
between two tones and indicates that the LYNXR-EN is waiting for a session command from the Central
Station operator. Once a command is issued the beep acknowledgement is discontinued, however, if a
command is not issued within two minutes the system will “time out” and the call will be terminated.

Operator Commands
The Central Station operator begins the session, which last 5 minutes, by entering one of the valid AVM
commands shown in the table below. The session may be extended 5 minutes, without changing the
operating mode, by pressing the [7] key on the touch-tone phone. Selecting another operating mode also
resets the session an additional 5 minutes. During the last minute of the 5 minute, session, the LYNXR-EN
generates two beeps every 30 seconds to alert the Central Station operator that the session is about to time
out. The Central Station operator may then extend the session by pressing the [7] key on the touch-tone
phone. If the session is not extended the phone line is disconnected, and the session is ended. Sessions may
be ended at any time by pressing the [9] key on the touch-tone phone. The AVM modes are described as
follows:
Note: When entering AVM commands make sure the Central Station receiver has been disconnected from the phone line, otherwise
AVM commands may not go through.
Key Function
1 Talk Mode: Pressing the [1] key on the touch tone phone, enables one-way voice communication from the central station
to the violated premises, and allows the operator to talk communicate through the LYNXR-EN speaker. In this mode the
ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs blink alternately.

2 VOX (Voice) Mode: Pressing the [2] key on the touch-tone phone, enables two-way voice communications between the central
station and the violated premises. In this mode the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs blink alternately.

3 Listen Mode: Pressing the [3] key on the touch-tone phone, enables one-way audio from the violated premises to the central
station. The Listen Mode is the start up default mode of the voice feature and allows the operator to listen through the
LYNXR-EN microphone. This mode does not affect the existing LED pattern.

7 Extends the session 5 minutes without changing its operating mode.

9 Ends the session and disconnects the phone line.

 System Operation
“Follow Me” Reminder Feature
This feature allows the user to schedule a time driven message. When activated the system will dial a phone number, that the
installer programs in Field ✻46, and deliver a voice message (custom words 72, 73, and 74). The LYNXR will immediately
begin transmitting the voice message and will repeat the message for 45 seconds. Pressing any touch-tone key on the
answering phone will acknowledge the message ending the session and preventing the system from redialing the programmed
number. Delivery of a reminder message on the local LYNXR keypad will continue. If the message has timed out the system
will redial the programmed number a maximum of seven additional times or until it is acknowledged. Pressing any key on
the LYNXR keypad will terminate (acknowledge) both the follow me reminder and the local reminder announcements.
Notes: (1) This feature is only supported if programmed in field ✻49.
(2) The follow me reminder will be terminated if any other event requires the system to dial out, or if an audible alarm has
occurred, however, delivery of the local schedule reminder message will continue.

“Follow Me” System Announcement Feature

This feature allows the LYNXR to deliver a voice system message to the secondary phone number
programmed by the installer. The LYNXR will first transmit reports to the Central Station and after
receiving its kiss-off the system will dial the secondary phone number and begin transmitting the voice
message. This message is a repeatable system status announcement. Like the Follow Me reminder, pressing
any key on the answering telephone or the local LYNXR keypad will terminate (acknowledge) the message.
The system will dial the secondary phone number a maximum of eight times. The Follow Me alarm
functions may be triggered by a variety of events depending upon the selections made during programming
in field ✻49.
Note: The follow me system announcement will be terminated if any other event requires the system to dial out or if an
audible alarm has occurred.

Powerline Carrier Devices (e.g. X-10 devices)

If Powerline Carrier Devices are used, two keypad entries available to the user are included. They
can manually activate or deactivate the device(s) for starting or stopping some action, such as
turning lights on or off, etc.
These keypad entries are:
Security Code* + [#] + [4] + Device # activates (starts) that device.
Security Code* + [#] + [7] + Device # de-activates (stops) that device.
*Code is required for devices 7 and 8. Code is not required for devices 1-6.

Exit Error Alarm Displays

If programmed:
• A display of “CA” and a zone indication will appear if an exit or interior zone contained a fault
during closing at the time the exit delay ended (e.g., exit door left open), but the system was
disarmed during the entry delay time. The alarm sounder and keypad sound continuously, but
stop when the system is disarmed. No message will be transmitted to the central station.
• A display of “EA” and a zone indication will appear if an exit or interior zone contained a fault
during closing at the time the exit delay ended, but the system was NOT disarmed during the
entry delay time. The alarm sounder and keypad sound continuously until the system is
disarmed (or timeout occurs). An Exit Alarm message is sent to the central station.
• The “EA” display, etc. will also result if an alarm from an exit or interior zone occurs within two
minutes after the end of an exit delay.
In any of the above cases, use a second OFF sequence (code plus OFF key) to clear the display.

System Operation
Trouble Conditions
The word “FAULT” on the keypad’s display, accompanied by a rapid “beeping” at the keypad, indicates that
there is a trouble condition in the system. Pressing any key can silence the audible warning sound. Instruct
users to call for service immediately upon seeing any of the following messages.
• “Fault” and “Battery” Displays
• “FAULT” and one or more zone numbers indicates that a problem exists with the displayed zone(s)
and requires attention. After correcting the problem, the display can be cleared by entering the security
code plus the OFF key twice.
• The fault condition may also be caused by some change in the environment that prevents the built-in
receiver from receiving signals from a particular wireless sensor.
• “LOW BAT” with no zone number indicates that the system’s backup battery is weak.
• “LOW BAT” with a zone number and a once-per-45 seconds “beeping” at the keypad indicates that a
low battery condition exists in the wireless sensor displayed (zone “00” indicates a wireless button/keypad).
If the battery is not replaced within 30 days, a “FAULT” display may occur.
• “Fault Zone 93”, along with a flashing “AC” and a once per 45-seconds “beeping” at the keypad indicates
a loss of AC power to the 5842 Wireless Dialer (if this feature is supported by the Wireless Dialer being
installed).
• “Fault Zone 93”, along with a single beep indicates that setup information from the 5842 Wireless Dialer
has not been properly received.
Power Failure
• If there is no display at all, and both indicators are not lit, operating power for the system has
stopped and the system is inoperative.
• If the display is lit and the AC display is off, the system is operating on battery power only.
• During an AC power loss, the backlighting will turn off and the indicators will flicker slightly to
minimize deep discharge of the battery.
Other Displays
dI = Busy-Standby: Displayed upon power-up. After approximately 1 minute* the green “READY” LED
should light. If the “dI” remains displayed for more than 1 minute, the system is disabled.
*To bypass the 1-minute delay, press [#] + [0]. Important: Do not try to bypass 1 minute delay before “dI”
is displayed!
CC = Modem Comm: The system is communicating with the central station for change of function or
status verification.
FC = Comm. Failure: A communication failure has occurred. This message clears only when the system
is subsequently armed.
90 = RF Jam: The system has detected an RF jamming condition or excessive interference.
93 = Wireless Dialer: Tamper (alarm or trouble), phone line cut, loss of supervision, low battery, or AC
power loss*.
*If supported by the 5842 Wire Dialer that is installed.

 Testing the System
Test Mode
After installation is completed, the security system should be carefully tested, as follows.
1. With the system in the disarmed state, check that all zones are intact. If the READY LED is
not lit, press the [ ✻] key to display the faulted zone(s). Restore faulted zone(s) if necessary, so
that READY LED lights. Fault and restore every sensor individually to assure that it is being
monitored by the system.
2. Enter the security code and press the TEST key. The outside sounder will sound for 1 second
and all the LED segments on the keypad display light for 3 seconds. LYNX announces the
zone’s voice descriptor (if programmed) followed by 3 beeps, each time a contact is faulted. A
test report should be transmitted (if programmed) to the central station immediately. If the
backup battery is discharged or missing, the sounder may not turn on and a LOW BATTERY
report will be transmitted with a TEST report. The keypad will beep once every 45 seconds as a
reminder that the system is in the Test mode.
3. To turn off the Test mode enter security code and press the OFF key.
Notes: (1) Triggering a zone set to Arm AWAY, Arm STAY, or Disarm will take the system out of Test and
cause that action.
(2) BR type transmitters do not display during Test mode (keypad beeps only)
(3) Macros cannot be run from the Test mode.

Armed System Test

Alarm messages will be sent to the central station during the following tests 1 and 2.
Notify them in advance that tests will be in progress.
1. Arm the system and fault one or more zones. After 15 seconds (if optional dialer delay is
selected), silence alarm sounder(s) by entering the code and pressing OFF. Check entry/exit
delay zones.
2. Check the keypad-initiated alarms that are in the system by pressing the Panic key pairs. If the
system has been programmed for audible emergency, the keypad will emit a steady alarm
sound, and “ALARM” and zone number will be displayed. Silence the alarm by entering the
security code and pressing OFF.
If the system has been programmed for silent emergency, there will be no audible alarms or
displays, but a report will be sent to the central station.
3. If Powerline Carrier Devices have been installed, test their programmed action.
4. Notify the central station when all tests are finished, and verify results with them.
5. To test the wireless part of the system and the RF receiver, perform the two additional tests
described in the Installing Wireless Zones section: Sniffer mode and Go/No Go Test.
Note: System Test mode (installer/master code + test) and Go/No Go Test (installer code + # + 8) will
be automatically terminated after 3-1/2 to 4 hours if the installer or user does not manually
terminate it. This ensures that fire and panic zones will not remain disabled. However, Sniffer
mode (installer code + # + 3) does not automatically expire. You must manually exit
(Installer/User Code + OFF) Sniffer mode to return to normal operation.

TO THE INSTALLER
Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer and frequent testing by the
user are vital to continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm system.
The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and offering a regular maintenance
program to the user as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the
alarm system and its component parts. Recommendations must be included for a specific program of
frequent testing (at least weekly) to ensure the system’s proper operation at all times.

System Communication
This section provides an explanation of formats this system accommodates for reporting alarms and
other system conditions to the central station. The process of a successful transmission consists of
both the method of communication between the control panel and the central station receiver, and
the actual way the information is sent and displayed at the central station.
Communication Overview
When the panel calls the central station receiver, it waits to hear a “handshake” frequency from the
receiver to confirm that the receiver is on-line and ready to receive its message. Once the panel
hears the handshake it is programmed to listen for, it sends its message. The panel then waits for a
“kissoff” frequency from the receiver acknowledging that the message was received and understood.
3

If the handshake frequency is not given or is not understood by the panel, the panel will not send its
message. Once the handshake frequency is received and understood by the panel, the panel will
send its message. If there is an error in the transmission (the receiver does not receive a “valid”
message), the kissoff frequency will not be given by the central station receiver.
The panel will make eight attempts to the primary telephone number and eight attempts to the
secondary telephone number (if programmed) to get a valid message through. If the panel is not
successful after its numerous attempts, the keypad will display “FC.” If the secondary number is a
pager, “FC” displays after the first 8 attempts to the primary number.
The following chart defines the three sets of (handshake/kissoff) frequencies that the panel supports, and
the different formats that can be sent for each.

 WARNING
THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM
While this System is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or
other emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a
variety of reasons. For example:
• Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work
without power. Battery-operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put
in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.
• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the
signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.
• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not
activate or provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may
not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not
sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of
closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector,
for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke
detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by
carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson. Depending on the nature of the fire
and/or location of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to
allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their
installation manual. Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams
of protection, and intrusion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion
or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows.
Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical
system can reduce their detection ability. Passive Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the
ambient temperature of the protected area approaches the temperature range of 90° to 105°F (32° to 40°C), the detection
performance can decrease.
• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the
other side of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices are located on a different level of the residence from the
bedrooms, then they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not
hear the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing
traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people.
• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.
• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect
themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond
appropriately.
• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to
last as long as 20 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This
alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly. The security keypad
(and remote keypad) should be tested as well.
Wireless transmitters (used in some systems) are designed to provide long battery life under normal operating conditions.
Longevity of batteries may be as much as 4 to 7 years, depending on the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device
being used. External factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as large swings in temperature, may all reduce
the actual battery life in a given installation. This wireless system, however, can identify a true low battery situation, thus
allowing time to arrange a change of battery to maintain protection for that given point within the system.
Installing an alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance rate, but an alarm system is not a substitute for
insurance. Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to
insure their lives and property.
We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones
to learn about these developments.
