Please help me in this .. i knwo the code now but keypad not active so can't enter code even.. please explain in simple lang how to set all Zones..i hav elist of zones on my panel written.. it was set to 6 zones..

 

one last thing.. when keypad was working.. it was showing Open on screen and numbers was keep changing from 1-8 .. ready light was off and can't get to work.. clock is setup

 

Ok first you need to get the keypad back. A _lot_ of people fall into the trap of setting DSC keypads as "Global" (Which does have a use, just not for a typical system).

Press and hold the 1 key (selecting partition 1) Go back into programming, and set the keypad correctly in section 000. (It's in the manual at the end of the section on keypad commands).

Once that's done, you probably need to first go into section 13 and turn on option 1. (ADT installers never use the resistors on the loops if they can avoid them.) After that, you will still need to set the zone configurations to match how your zones are actually laid out, but that should get you back to basics.

Write out your zone setup, and we can give you the correct codes. Once you do them, a lot of DSC's twisted syntex will make more sense.

 

Thanks.. Now keypad working ..how can I program section 13 ?.. and list for zone is
1-front door
2-Grage door
3-Motion (main)
4-Patio door
5-Basement Motion
6-Basemnet winxy

right now on screen it's count form 1-8 and go way after minute.. no beeps when i open any door...it's great of you to help .. please explain simple as you can

 

First you enter program mode with[*] + 8 + [installer code]
Then go to section 13. To turn options on and off, simply press the key corresponding to the selection. The zone light (or number on a LCD display) will be on for all options that are "on".

For the zone programming:
Go to section 001 and enter the numbers one after the other. The panel will double beep when it jumps to the next entry in the section. The leading zeros are necessary.

1-front door -- 01
2-Grage door -- 01 (if it's an entry/exit door; otherwise enter 03)
3-Motion (main) -- 05
4-Patio door -- 03
5-Basement Motion -- 05
6-Basemnet winxy -- 03
7-Not used -- 00
8-Not used -- 00

Once you enter the entry for zone 8, it will jump back to the awaiting section status. Press # until you go back to run mode.

 

Thanks.. Now it's working and beep on all doors and all zones are programmed.. (green) Ready light not ON ...am i missing anything ? I was not moving so motion sensor was off.. but still all lights are off and not on Ready

 

Press the arrow keys to see if one of those zones is actually open. Also, press *2 to see if there are any trouble conditions.

 

Arrow keys not working ..

 

Could you possibly still be in global keypad mode, or have set the keypad to the wrong partition?

 

it was shoing 3 and 6 open.. 3 in understand its motion ..but zone 6 which was basement winxy not working..so i did zone programming again and zone 6 did as 00 .. after everything works ok and on ready now.. tested ..works.. Keypad arrow keys still doesn't work.. i have no idea why but rest keypad work..
how much the delay will be on it after arming ? 90 seconds or more?

 

It sounds like you may be missing a contact/magnet on those basement windows.

The default exit delay time on a DSC panel is 120 seconds. It's set in third group of section 005 on a PC5010.
