To program a wireless device on a 1616, 1832, 1864 system, you need to access the Installer’s Programming section and manually enroll the device’s electronic serial number (ESN). This process requires a wireless receiver module (like the RF4164-433) to be already installed and enrolled in the system.
Programming Steps
- Enter Installer Programming: At the keypad, enter *8 followed by your Installer Code (the default is often 5555 or 1234, check with your installer if default is not working). The keypad will indicate you are in programming mode.
- Access Wireless Programming Section:
- For wireless keys (fobs), enter the reference number 001300 to go directly to the “Enroll Device” section.
- For wireless zone devices (sensors), enter section 804.
- Enter Zone/Device Number:
- For zones, you will be prompted for a three-digit zone number where the device will be assigned.
- For wireless keys, the system will automatically display an available key slot (e.g., WKEY #XX).
- Enter the ESN (Serial Number):
- Locate the serial number on the back of your wireless device.
- If the ESN is six digits, enter it directly.
- If the ESN is five digits, enter a 0 followed by the five-digit number (e.g., 012345).
- Some eight-digit serial numbers may require entering 00 first.
- Confirmation: The panel will provide a triple beep to confirm the serial number has been successfully enrolled.
- Exit Programming: Press the
#key repeatedly to exit the current menu and eventually exit programming mode. - Test the Device: Verify the device is working by testing it (e.g., opening and closing a door/window for a contact sensor).
Important Notes
- System Version: Manual enrollment is typically the standard method for power series systems, especially versions 4.5 or older.
- Module Enrollment: Ensure your wireless receiver module is properly enrolled and connected to the system Combus before attempting to add individual devices.
- Documentation: Refer to your specific device’s manual or the power series Programming Worksheets for specific zone definitions and advanced options.
