Power 832 issue



I installed this thing years ago, then had some trouble with it, so I left
it dormant.

I'm trying to get it up and running again.  Most things seem to work, but
I'm having trouble with 2 items.
-4 wire smoke detectors.  I have 4 ESL 449CT detectors with a DSC RM-1C
power supervision relay at EOL.  The 5600 resistor is installed, too.  The
problem is that the loop is not powering up.  I've hooked positive to Aux+
as recommended, and hooked negative to PGM2.  I get no power.  I put a
multimeter on the contacts and it confirms no power. I'm also getting a
wiring fault on zone 7 (I've designated it as delayed Fire)
I removed the power supervision unit and hooked the detectors up to Aux+ and
Aux- and the loop powers up fine.  I get the LED blink every 9 seconds from
the detectors as normal.
I accidentally put the power supervision unit back on the EOL while still
hooked to Aux+ and Aux-.  The system worked for ~7 seconds and the system
went off.  I disconnected the power supervision unit, unplugged the system,
disconnected the battery, then re-atached power.  Everything came back up
fine.
Since I know that Aux+ is working, it must be an issue with PGM2.  Is this a
programming issue and PGM 2 just isn't activated?
Secondly, I've designated zones 5 and 6 to be interior zones (beams)  I
don't want them activated during 'Stay' mode.  But, when I hold 'Stay' down
to activate it, it runs a system test. (??)  How do I get this key back and
working the way it should?

TIA,

Dave
