VISTA-128BPT/VISTA-250BPT Installation and Setup Guide3-24RS-232 ConnectivitySerial Port ConfigurationThe enhanced serial port on the Vista Turbo Series operates at a speed of 9600bps. Earlier Vista series panels used aspeed of 1200bps. (Please note that 1200bps option has been deleted and is no longer supported on Vista Turbo.)Depending on your application, you may need to adjust the configuration of your printer, home automation system orexternal software package to match the new faster speed. Consult the documentation for your external hardware orsoftware for directions on how to do this. In some cases you may need to contact the vendor of this external hardware orsoftware for an update patch or new driver.Serial Port ConnectionsThe J8 connector is no longer used for direct connect, serial printer or home automation applications. On all Vista TurboSeries panels, there are two methods of connecting to the serial (printer/automation) port:NOTE: TB4 and J9 support WIN-PAK and Pro-Watch, however if you want to connect to a printer you must use TB4 inorder to get printer DSR supervision ("Printer Off Line").Using flying leads from terminal block TB4 to a 9- or 25-pin serial connector.Plugging the VT-SERCBL cable into header J9. This connector terminates in a 9-pin serial connector. To connect this toa PC, you must use a standard straight through serial cable with a 9-pin connector on the panel end and the appropriateconnector for your PC on the other end.The TB4 method is intended for permanent wiring, e.g. when connecting to WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch. The J9 method isideal for direct-connect programming, where the serial connection being made is only temporary.When connecting via TB4, observe the TB4 pin configuration shown on the Summary of Connections label.30J71 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9J81 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9TXDRXDRTS/DTRCTS/DSRGNDTB4V128BPT-001-V2Control PanelPC BoardJ9Panel 9-Pin 25-PinTXD 3 (EBI-IPPS) 2 (EBI-IPPS)2 (All Other Configurations) 3 (All Other Configurations)RXD 2 (EBI-IPPS) 3 (EBI-IPPS)3 (WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch) 2 (WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch)RTS/DTR 8 (WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch) 5 (WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch)CTS/DSR 4 (Printer Only) 20 (Printer Only)GND 5 (All Configurations) 7 (All Configurations)When connecting via J9, use the VT-SERCBL cable assembly. To connect this to a PC, you must use a standard straightthrough serial cable with a 9-pin connector on the panel end and the appropriate connector for your PC on the other end.IMPORTANT: When connecting the VT-SERCBL cable into header J9, the red strip (pin 1) on the ribbon cable shouldbe to the left.NOTES:1. TB4 and J9 cannot be used simultaneously. If you are using one of these connection points to communicatewith the panel, you MUST temporarily disconnect the other wiring.2. You cannot use WIN-PAK or Pro-Watch and the Printer at the same time.Serial Programming Options for Automation ApplicationsNOTE: You cannot simultaneously use a serial printer and Home/Facility Automation.The following group of fields must be set to use the serial port for automation applications:*05 Enter 1 to send System Event Messages via RS232 port*14 Enter 1 to enable Home/Facility Automation Control Input1*78 Extended Home Control Events (Enter 1 for extended)1*79 Home Control Event Types (Enter 1 for each event type to be enabled; 0 to disable)1*80 Enter 1 to improve automation performance by disabling fault/restore messages over the automation port. If yourequire live mapping while the system is disarmed, you must enter 0 here.
