Wiring Burglary and Panic Devices to Zones 1-8
The maximum zone resistance is 100 ohms for zones 1, 2 and 8, and 300 ohms for all other zones (excluding the
2K EOL resistor).
To wire burglary and panic devices to zones 1-8, connect sensors/contacts to the hardwire zone terminals (15 through
27). Connect N.C. and N.O. devices as follows:
Connect N.C. devices in series with the high (+) side of the loop. The 2K EOL resistor must be connected in series
with the devices, following the last device.
Connect N.O. devices in parallel (across) the loop. The 2K EOL resistor must be connected across the loop wires
at the last device.
Using 2-Wire Smoke Detectors on Zones 1 and 2
Zone 1 and 2 can support up to 16 2-wire smoke detectors each (32 total).
The alarm current on zones 1 and 2 supports only one smoke detector in the alarmed state.
When assigned zone type 9 or 16, the second entry of a User Code + off at a keypad interrupts power to these zones to
allow detectors to be reset following an alarm.

L
These smoke detectors are UL Listed for use with the Vista-32FB and are the only 2-wire smoke detectors that
may be used.
A combination of heat detectors and smoke detectors is not permitted on a zone programmed for fire
verification.
Fire installations require the use of a synchronization module to synchronize the sounders and strobes on the
system.
Wiring 2-Wire Smoke Detectors to Zones 1 and 2
2K EOL resistors must be used on fire zones and must be connected across the loop wires of each zone at the
last detector.
To wire 2-wire smoke detectors to zone 1 and/or zone 2, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Select 2-wire smoke detectors from the list of compatible detectors.
2 Connect 2-wire smoke detectors across zone 1 (terminals 15 and 16), and/or zone 2 (terminals 17 and 18) as
shown in Figure 3-12. Observe proper polarity when connecting the detectors.
3
Connect the EOL resistor at the last detector in the loop across the zone 1 terminals. The EOL resistor
must be connected across the loop wires at the last detector.
