Re: Vista 10 SE and fire alarm

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Zone 5 is default programmed for fire and takes a 1K ohm resistor like the
other zones. On unused zones you can deprogram it and or put resistor across
it. I usually do BOTH, for a few reasons; I know where the resistor is in
case I DO want to use that zone later and because some panels I use and view
status with remote programmer will show a deprogrammed zone as faulted if
there is no resistor - which is temporarily confusing to me :-)

| If I want to just disable it do I still need to add the resistor?
|
| Is the resistor just a regular 3K Ohm like you get at radio shack?
