1. Before You Leave the Shop

Equipment Checklist

• 7845C (Includes battery and standard antenna.

No transformer or power supply necessary.)

Optional Equipment

May be desired or necessary depending

on job specification or requirements.

• 4229 zone expander (refer to Section 2)

• 7720P AlarmNet programming tool

• 7825-OC outdoor antenna

• Antenna cables

• 7720V2TR 6V DC power pack

Check MicroBurst Coverage Availability

Use job premises zip code to confirm that MicroBurst service is active in

the local cellular network. Check zip code at the AlarmNet web site.

WWW.ALARMNET.COM

Or call the AlarmNet Technical Assistance Center at

800-222- 6525

Obtain AlarmNet Account Numbers

Contact your providing AlarmNet Central Station or your

local data center to obtain all three of the necessary AlarmNet

account numbers. You will not be able to register the radio

without these numbers.

SUBSCRIBER NUMBER (Four digits, 0-9)

CENTRAL STATION NUMBER (Two hexadecimal digits, 0-9, A-F)

CITY ID NUMBER (Two digits, 0-9)

2. Which Operating Mode to Use With

Different Types of Control Panels

The 7845C has four different modes of operation, which can be selected

using the tamper switch during start-up. Which mode you use depends

on what type of control panel you will connect to the radio.

Table 1 indicates which modes to use with various panels.

Table 1. Operating Modes for Use with Control Panels

• ECP Mode (VISTA with E2 only) - Contact ID communication

• Programmable Relay Emulation Mode - Relay commands are

sent via data connection (ECP) from the host (VISTA)panel to

the 7845C (does not require 4204 module)

• 4229 Mode - Allows the use of a 4229 zone expander as a

seven zone input board

• Zone Mode - Single Zone Input (Pulsed Input = Zone 1, Steady

Input = Zone 2).

3. Antenna Placement and Transmitter Installation

Guidelines

• Use the signal strength meter (five horizontal LEDs) to determine

quality of reception

• Strive for the maximum possible signal strength-5 BARS, and

• Never settle for less than three steady bars of signal strength.

Procedures

Activate the Radio

1. Connect the battery.

2. Radio will initiate start-up procedure (2-5 minutes).

3. When completed:

• Red LED will be OFF, indicating positive

MicroBurst availability.

• IF red LED stays on, go to Appendix II Troubleshooting.

• Amber LED will blink steadily, either once or twice per second, depend-

ing on carrier selected.

• Green LED on solid.

Select Mounting Location

1. Hold radio against wall for 10 seconds at desired

mounting location.

2. Check to be sure that this location provides at least three steady bars

on the signal strength meter.

3. If signal strength is inadequate, move radio and hold for another 10

seconds.

4. Use 7825-OC outdoor antenna if specified or necessary.

5. Even if original location provides three bars of signal strength, test

several other locations for better signal strength.

6. Refer to Appendix I for tips on finding best locations.

7. STRIVE FOR FIVE bars of signal strength.

8. Conduct click test using tamper switch to confirm clear RF path to the

network.

9. Mark location with best signal strength for

later mounting.

Program the Radio

1. Power down the unit.

2. Identify operating mode to be used according to control panel type

(refer to Section 2).

3. Power up unit.

4. Use tamper switch to select operating mode.

5. Program radio using PRO registration method or

7720P if necessary.

NOTE: Refer to appropriate subsection in Section 4 for details.

Mount the Radio

1. Mount in previously selected and tested location.

2. Register the Radio

3. Triple click tamper switch or press SHIFT [È] to register.

4. GreenL ED will go OFF when radio has successfully

registered (30 seconds).

5. Wire Radio to Control Panel

6. Refer to appropriate diagram in Section 4.

7. Test Alarm Delivery to Central Station

8.Test according to your company’s standard

installation procedure.
