5.2.2.3 Communications Programming
After all of the Serial Numbers have been entered, The Wizard will proceed into Communications Programming.
Here the Installer is prompted for the First Telephone Number and it’s corresponding Account Code. As with all
Wizard Programming, each data entry is followed by a confirmation routine to ensure the data is properly entered.
5.2.2.4 Module Placement Test
The Module Placement Test of the WLS9000 is quite different from previous Power-Based products as it
incorporated the following changes and enhancements:
• Each Detector Must pass three Consecutive Tests before being enabled on the system.
• Each Detector is enabled in Section [202]-[205] only after passing the three tests mentioned above. There is no
way to manually override this enrollment process.
• There are only “Good” and “Bad” Placements. “Fair” has been removed; it’s former status internal to the
software is considered a “Bad”.
• The piezo will squawk once for “Good” and three times for “Bad”.
• If the Placement is exited before all zones are properly enrolled, a General System Trouble is generated at the
keypad. This trouble can only be cleared by re-entering the Module Placement Test and testing the un-enrolled
devices.
• Zones can be disabled via Section [202]-[205], but they cannot be enabled.
When Module Placement Test is entered, the system will annunciate all of the zones which have been enrolled on
the system, but are not enabled in Sections [202]-[205]. This allows the Placement Test to be entered after
additional devices have been enrolled on the system without the hassle or re-testing ‘placed’ zones.
As each device receives three “Good” placements, it is removed from the annunciation list and it’s corresponding bit
in Section [202]-[205] is toggled to enable the zone on the system.
After all zones have passed the Module Placement Test, the Wizard will end and the Installer will find him/herself in
base Standard Programming, where he/she may do additional programming not covered by the Wizard. “#” may be
pressed to exit.
5.2.3 Internal or External Annunciation Selection
A method of selecting either the internal piezo/speaker or external remote sounder for the annunciation of
alarms and Audio has been implemented in the WLS9000. This feature is to deter thieves from “homing in” on the
source of the alarm and tampering with the WLS9000, thus resulting in a potential security breech.
The settings are as follows:
• Local Annunciation (main unit: Section [040] Option 1)
• Remote Annunciation (Remote Sounder: Section [040] Option 2)
• Both (Section [040] Options 1 and 2 ON)
This feature is found in Section [040], Options 1 and 2, with Option 1 defaulted ON and Option 2 defaulted OFF.
5.2.4 Voice Prompting
The WLS9000 will have a complete library of prompts similar to the ESCORT5580 to assist the user through various
functions of the system. This will also include Installer programming prompting similar to ESCORT programming in
the ESCORT5580.
5.2.5 Volume of Annunciation
There is several different levels of volume for the on-board piezos and speaker.
• Full Siren (siren; as loud as possible for alarm conditions)
• Full Voice (speaker; used to verbosely annunciate alarms. Always = highest speaker volume setting)
• Conversational Audio (speaker; Voice Prompted Help = four selectable levels)
• Low “Beeps” (small piezo; trouble conditions)
The volume of the voice prompts may be selected one of two ways:
• Using the Volume Function Key (Type [28]) to toggle through the different volume settings.
