Installation overview
Before starting the installation, plan your system layout and programming using
the worksheets provided in Appendix A “System planning sheets” on page 117.
Note: Class 2, Class 3, and power-limited fire alarm circuits must be installed
using FPL, FPLR, FPLP, or substitute cable permitted by the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA 70 or Class 2, Class 3, and power-limited fire alarm circuit
conductors must be installed as Class 1 or higher circuits.
Note: Class 2, Class 3, and power-limited burglar alarm circuits must be installed
using CL2, CL2R, CL2P, or substituting cable permitted by ANSI/NFPA 70. Wire
that extends beyond the cable jacket must be separated from all other
conductors by a minimum of 0.25 in. or by a nonconductive barrier.
Use the following installation guidelines:
• Centrally locate the panel with relation to detection devices whenever
possible, to help reduce wire run lengths and labor.
• Locate the panel where the temperature will not exceed 120°F (49°C) or fall
below 32°F (0°C).
• Avoid running wires parallel with electrical wiring or fixtures such as
fluorescent lighting, to prevent wire runs from picking up electrical noise.
• Mount the panel at a comfortable working height (about 45 to 55 in. from the
floor to the bottom of the panel, as shown in Figure 1 on page 7).
• Leave space to the left and right of the panel for wiring, phone jack, and
mounting optional modules. Allow at least 9 in. (23 cm) above the panel
cabinet for antennas. Allow at least 24 in. (62 cm) in front of the panel to open
the panel door.

Smoke detectors
You can connect two-wire and four-wire smoke detectors to the system.
Two-wire smoke detectors
Zone input 8 can be set up (in program mode) to accept the following 12 VDC,
two-wire smoke detectors:
ESL models 429AT, 429C, 429CT, 521B, 521BXT, 521NCSXT (models
521B and 521BXT require the following dip switch settings: 1-on, 2-off)
Caution: Use only the two-wire smoke detector models listed. Alarm signals from
other detectors may not process correctly if the panel loses AC power and is
operating only from the backup battery.
When set up for two-wire smoke detectors, zone 8 can handle up to 20 smoke
detectors (all of the same model, as listed above) with 120 uA maximum idle
current per detector. Maximum total loop current allowed in an alarm condition is
90 mA. Connect one or more, two-wire smoke detectors to the panel as shown in
Figure 7 on page 16.
Chapter 2: Installation
16 Concord 4 Installation Manual
Note: When using two-wire smoke detectors on zone 8, the two-wire smoke
setting (in program mode) must be turned on before entering the learn sensors
menu.

Note: The two-wire smoke setting (in program mode) must be on when using
four-wire smoke detectors as shown in Figure 7 above. See “Onboard options -
inputs settings” on page 78 for complete details.
If two-wire smoke detectors with built-in sounders are used (521INCSXT), a
polarity reversal relay (model 405-03) may be used to activate the sounders on
all smoke detectors during a fire alarm (see Figure 8 on page 17). An output
must be used to activate the polarity reversal relay. This output must be
configured for fire alarm trigger, and siren tracking response (001-11).
Note: Onboard outputs 1 or 2, SnapCard outputs, or output module outputs may
be used to activate the polarity reversal relay.
Maximum alarm current that the panel can source to all external devices is
limited to 1 amp. Be sure to include the alarm current for all sounder smoke
detectors in the alarm current calculation.

Terminal 24 provides power to four-wire smoke detectors that latch and remain in
the alarm state until power turns off, then restores to the detector. The panel
provides this power interruption from terminal 24 (2W SMK ZONE 8) only when
the two-wire smoke option is on.
Note: The two-wire smoke feature must be on for smoke detectors to reset after
canceling a fire alarm.
Table 7 below describes the minimum available panel power. Use only four-wire
smoke detectors that operate at these power limits. Connect up to five smoke
detectors as shown in Figure 7 on page 16.

Speakers and sirens
The panel provides one siren driver output for intrusion (steady), fire (temporal
3), and auxiliary (on-off-on-off) alarm sounds. This output trips only for partition 1
alarms. Install all sirens/speakers indoors in a concealed location.
Note: Do not connect a bell or piezo siren to the speaker output (terminals 7 and
8).
The output can drive a single 8-ohm speaker or a multiple speaker circuit of 8
ohms or higher. When connecting two or more speakers, wire them in series.
Wiring speakers in parallel can permanently damage the panel. Compatible
speakers are shown below.
Caution: To avoid disabling the panel speaker output, do not make speaker
connections with the panel power on.
15-watt speaker (13-060)
For exterior siren applications, connect the speaker to the panel using 18-gauge
wire as shown in Figure 9 below.

Exterior/interior piezo sirens
Onboard output 1 (OUT 1—terminal 9) is a 9 to 14 VDC switched, programmable
output that can handle a maximum of 1,000 mA current. The default setting
(01614) activates the output 30 seconds after a police or fire alarm condition
occurs. This allows you to connect a piezo siren without changing the output
configuration number in programming. This output is typically used for exterior
siren applications. Connect multiple piezo sirens in parallel. (For more
information on output configuration numbers, see “Onboard options menu” on
page 78.)
Note: For 24-hour backup, external power drain is limited to 90 mA (during
normal standby condition), using a 4.5 or 5.0 Ah battery, or 190 mA continuous
using a 7.0 Ah battery.

The panel cannot be used on a digital or PBX phone line. These systems are
designed for digital type devices only, operating anywhere from 5 VDC and up.
The panel uses an analog modem and does not have a digital converter,
adapter, or interface to operate through such systems.
Note: Some telephones are polatity-sensitive. Green and red wires may need to
be reversed.
RJ31X phone jack
Use the following guidelines when installing an RJ31X phone jack for system
control by phone and central station monitoring:
• Locate the RJ31X jack (CA-38A in Canada) no further than 5 feet from the
panel.
• The panel must be connected to a standard analog (loop-start) phone line,
that provides 48 VDC (on-hook or idle).
Chapter 2: Installation
Concord 4 Installation Manual 29
• For full line seizure, install an RJ31X phone jack on the premises phone line
so the panel is ahead of all phones and other devices on the line. This allows
the panel to take control of the phone line when an alarm occurs, even if the
phone is in use or off-hook.
Note: Connecting the panel to an analog line off the phone switch places the
panel ahead of the phone system, preventing panel access from phones on
the premises. However, the panel can still be accessed from offsite phones.
• If an analog line is not available, contact a telecommunication specialist and
request an analog line off the phone switch (PBX mainframe) or a 1FB
(standard business line).
To connect a phone line to the panel using an RJ31X/CA-38A jack:
1. Run a four-conductor cable from the TELCO protector block to the jack
location.
2. Connect one end of the cable to the jack.
3. At the TELCO protector block, remove the premises phone lines from the
block and splice them to the black and white (or yellow) wires of the 4-
conductor cable.
4. Connect the green and red wires from the 4-conductor cable to the TIP (+)
and RING (-) posts on the block.
5. Check the phones on the premises for a dial tone and the ability to dial out
and make phone calls. If phones do not work correctly, check all wiring and
correct where necessary.
Connecting the phone line to the panel with a DB-8 cord
After installing the RJ31X jack, you are ready to connect the phone line to the
panel. A DB-8 cord (not included) uses a plug at one end for connecting to the
RJ31X module and flying leads on the other end for panel terminal connections.
To connect the DB-8 cord to the panel terminals and RJ31X jack:
1. Connect the green, brown, gray, and red flying leads from the DB-8 cord to
panel terminals 25, 26, 27, and 28.
2. Insert the DB-8 cord’s plug into the RJ31X.
3. Check the phones on the premises for a dial tone and the ability to dial out
and make phone calls. If phones do not work correctly, check all wiring and
correct where necessary.

Power
After connecting and wiring all devices to the panel, you are ready to apply AC
and backup battery power to the panel.
Caution: Do not plug in the power transformer or connect the backup battery at
this time. The panel must be powered up using the sequence of steps described
in “Power up” on page 31.
AC power transformer
The panel must be powered by a plug-in, step-down transformer that supplies
16.5 VAC, 40 VA (600-1023 or 600-1023-CN).
Note: Do not short the transformer terminals together. The transformer contains
an internal fuse that permanentaly disables the output if the terminals are
shorted.
For systems that include X10 lamp modules, the panel must be powered with the
line carrier power transformer that supplies 16.5 VAC, 40 VA (600-1024 or 600-
1024-CN). Connect the power transformer to the panel as shown in Figure 26 on
page 31.
Chapter 2: Installation
Concord 4 Installation Manual 31
Backup battery
Use the 60-681 (12 VDC, 4.5 or 5 Ah) or 60-680 (12 VDC, 7Ah) backup battery.
The battery is automatically tested every 24 hours. Without AC power, the panel
will shut down if the battery voltage falls below 10.2 VDC. Replace the battery
when necessary with the same battery model.
Note: The backup battery leads must be routed along the side of the enclosure
and secured with a cable tie.

lugs on the panel.
2. Connect the other ends of the backup battery leads to the battery terminals.
3. Plug the transformer into an outlet that is not controlled by a switch.
4. Alphanumeric touchpads display ************, then SCANNING BUS DEVICES,
and finally a date and time display.
Note: If alphanumeric touchpads don’t display anything, immediately unplug
the transformer and disconnect the backup battery.
5. To permanently mount the transformer, unplug it and remove the existing
screw securing the AC outlet cover
WARNING: Use extreme caution when securing the transformer to a metal
outlet cover. You could receive a serious shock if a metal outlet cover drops

arm/disarm
Shortcut: 0004
Default: Off. Partition to
turn on
This feature controls which partitions (1 to 6) can be armed/disarmed
simultaneously when using a touchpad and access code assigned to
those partitions. When enabled, users can arm/disarm selected
partitions using an authorized access code. When disabled, multiple
partitions cannot be armed/disarmed simultaneously. For this feature:
• At least two partitions must be selected.
• Touchpads must be assigned to at least one of the selected
partitions of this menu.
• Access codes must be assigned to all selected partitions of this
menu. If the partition assignment for a specific access code does not
match the partitions selected in this menu, only those partitions
common to both menu settings can be armed/disarmed
simultaneously with that code.
• A partition cannot be armed/disarmed if it is being controlled by
another source at that time.
• All arming modifiers except Silent affect all partitions being armed.
Only the arming partition can be armed silently.
• When arming multiple partitions, any conditions that prevent arming
are identified on touchpad displays with the affected partition number
flashing. The normal protest/auto force arm sequence follows, or
pressing * cancels the arming request.
• When disarming multiple partitions, any partitions in alarm have the
affected partition number flashing on touchpad displays. Pressing #
cancels all alarms in the selected partitions. Alarm memory
information is then displayed for all canceled alarms.

Keyfob PTN
Shortcut: 0006
Default: On
This feature controls which partitions the selected keyfob can
arm/disarm. When enabled, the selected keyfob can arm/disarm the
partitions selected in this menu. When disabled, the selected keyfob
cannot arm/disarm multiple partitions. For this feature:
• If no keyfobs are learned into panel memory, the menu displays
NOT AVAILABLE. When keyfobs are learned into panel memory,
two submenus appear. The first one lets you view keyfob assignments
similar to that of viewing learned sensors. The second submenu lets
you view and change the multipartition arming assignments for that
keyfob.
• At least two partitions must be selected.
• Keyfobs can arm/disarm multiple partitions only for those partitions
set up in the Multipartition arm/disarm menu.
• A partition cannot be armed/disarmed if it is being controlled by
another source at that time.
• When arming multiple partitions from a keyfob, any conditions that
prevent arming are identified on touchpad displays in the partition
where that condition exists. Touchpad displays in all other partitions
being armed display PROTEST. The normal protest/auto force arm
sequence follows, or pressing * on any touchpad in a partition being
armed cancels the arming request. Pressing the Lock button again
during a protest bypasses any open sensors in the affected partitions
and arms those partitions.
• When disarming multiple partitions with a keyfob and alarms are
active in one or more of the assigned partitions, protest beeps sound
for 5 minutes in all partitions being disarmed; partitions in alarm where
sirens have timed out sound protest beeps for 5 minutes; and
partitions in alarm with active sirens continue sounding the alarm.
In any case where alarms are active the premises may not be safe to
enter. The user has these options: leave and call for help from a safe
location; if entering the premises anyway, go to a hardwired touchpad
and check the system status to determine the alarm. Disarm and
alarm memory is displayed for all assigned partitions; and press the
keyfob Unlock button a second time (within the 5-minute protest
period) to disarm all assigned partitions and cancel all alarms, then go
to a hardwired touchpad and check alarm memory.
To enable keyfob PTN:
1. Learn all keyfobs into panel memory. (See “Sensors menu” on page
67.)
2. Enter this menu (display showing KEYFOB TP PTN), then press

Concord 4 Installation Manual 49
Security - partition 1 to 6 settings
Account number
Shortcut: 0010 to 0060
Default: 00000
The account number is used as panel (or customer) identification for the
central monitoring station. The panel sends the account number every
time it reports to the central station. Account numbers must be 1 to 10
characters long.
Alpha characters A to F can be assigned to the account number by
pressing and holding buttons 1 to 6 respectively, until the character
appears.
When using the CID reporting format, the letter A is reported as a 0.
Quick arm
Shortcut: 0011 to 0061
Default: Off
This feature allows system arming without using an access code. When
quick arm is on, the system arming level can be increased from off to
stay, from off to away, or from stay to away, without entering an access
code. A valid access code is still required to decrease the arming level
or disarm the system.
Quick exit
Shortcut: 0012 to 0062
Default: On
This feature determines whether or not users can open and close a
standard entry/exit door without causing an alarm (while the system is
armed). This feature also allows you to leave the armed premises
without having to disarm and rearm the system. When this feature is on,
pressing D on a touchpad (while the system is armed) starts a two-
minute timer that allows one standard entry/exit door (sensor groups 10
and 19 only) to be activated once (opened, then closed). When this
feature is off, you must disarm the system before any protected door is
opened.
Exit extension
Shortcut: 0013 to 0063
Default: On
This feature determines whether you can reenter and exit again through
an entry or exit delay door (without disarming and rearming the system).
This helps prevent exit faults and false alarms by allowing you to reenter
the premises for a forgotten item.
When this feature is on, the panel restarts the exit delay timer if you
reenter the premises through a standard delay door before the standard
exit delay time expires. When this feature is off, the exit delay timer
does not restart if you reenter the premises, forcing you to disarm the
system to avoid setting off an accidental alarm.
Keyswitch sensor
Shortcut: 0014 to 0064
Default: None
This feature lets you arm and disarm the system using either a
keyswitch wired to a hardwired zone input or a wireless door/window
sensor (sensor 01 to 96).
Note: We recommend you program (learn) keyswitch sensors into
group 28.
For example, if sensor 1 is designated as the keyswitch sensor and the
system is disarmed, then tripping sensor 1 could arm the system to
Away. If the system is armed to Stay or Away, then tripping the sensor
could disarm the system (depending on keyswitch style).
The panel reports opening, closing, and force-armed reports (if turned
on) to the central monitoring station.
Chapter 3: Programming
50 Concord 4 Installation Manual
Note: A bypassed keyswitch sensor cannot arm or disarm the system.
During an audible alarm, keyswitch sensors can disarm the system
(which sends a cancel report to the central monitoring station), but
cannot arm the system. The system can be armed only after the siren
timeout expires. Keyswitch sensors test the same as any other sensor
and do not arm or disarm the system during a sensor test.
To delete a keyswitch sensor, with the display showing KEYSWITCH
SENSOR nn (current sensor number), press D to erase the
keyswitch sensor attribute.
Keyswitch style
Shortcut: 0015 to 0065
Default: Transition
This feature determines how the system behaves when armed/disarmed
by a keyswitch sensor. The choices are as follows:
Transition (press 1): If keyswitch style is set to transition and the
keyswitch sensor is tripped (opened) when the system is disarmed, the
panel will automatically arm to Away. If the sensor is tripped (opened)
when the system is armed to Away or Stay, the panel will automatically
disarm
State (press 2): If keyswitch style is set to state, when the keyswitch
sensor is tripped (opened) the panel arms to Away. If the sensor is
restored (closed) the panel disarms.
Opening, closing, and force arming reports (if turned on) are reported to
the central station for both keyswitch styles.
Duress code
Shortcut: 0016 to 0066
Default: ****
The duress code is a unique 4-digit access code that allows users to
operate the system and, at the same time, instructs the panel to send a
silent alarm report to the central station.
Do not use a duress code unless it is necessary. Using duress codes
often results in false alarms due to code entry errors.
To use this feature, the Duress option setting under the “Reporting
menu” on page 61 must be turned on.
Phones menu
Use the Phones menu to set up central station reporting for the system. The
Phones menu has the following submenus:
• Central station phones 1 to 3 (see “Phones - central station phone 1 to 3

Phone test freq. and Next phone test under “Timers -global settings”
on page 57). When this feature is on, the panel considers any
successful report to the central monitoring station to be a successful
phone test. Thus, any panel report resets the next phone test setting
to the phone test frequency value. The panel only conducts an
automatic phone test if no other reports have been made during the
phone test frequency time. Phone test frequency must be set to 2 or
higher for automatic test reset to work.
When this feature is off, an automatic phone test is always conducted
according to the schedule of the phone test frequency setting, even if
the panel makes other reports to the central monitoring station during

wireless sensor tamper switches are activated.
When this setting is turned off, the panel sounds sirens and reports a
tamper alarm only when nonfire wireless sensor tamper switches are
activated and those sensors are active for the current arming level.
For nonfire sensors not active in the current arming level that have
their tamper switch activated, trouble beeps sound and the panel
sends a sensor tamper report to the central station if the system
tamper feature is on for that partition.
Tamper conditions for fire sensors (group 26) always cause trouble
beeps to sound and report the tamper condition to the central station,
regardless of this feature setting.
Antenna tamper
Shortcut: 06001
Default: Off
This setting determines whether the panel monitors for antenna
tamper of onboard and all connected bus transceivers and receivers.

Swinger limit
Shortcut: 06015
Default: 1
This setting determines the maximum number of times (1 or 2) a
sensor or zone can go into alarm (during a single arming period)
before the panel automatically bypasses that sensor or zone. This
feature only applies to sensors or zones in groups 00–20, 29, 34, 35,
or 38.
When set to 1, the panel automatically bypasses a sensor or zone
after it causes an alarm. When set to 2, the panel waits until a sensor
or zone has caused a second alarm (during the same arming period)
before bypassing it. At any setting, the automatic bypass is logged
into the event buffer.
A bypassed sensor or zone will be cleared (automatically
unbypassed) if the system receives no further activations from that
sensor or zone over the next 48 to 50 hours.
Changing the arming level also clears all automatically bypassed
sensors and zones and resets the swinger limit count on all sensors
and zones.
Auxiliary power

Set up schedules menu
The set up schedules menu lets you set up timeframes for light control, output
control, automatic arming, latchkey times, and exception opening/closing reports.
The system (all partitions) allows you to set up to 16 schedules (00 to 15) that
are shared by all partitions.
Setting up schedules consists of setting a start and stop time for each schedule,
then selecting which days of the week the schedule will be active. You can also
set up a rollover schedule, which starts on one day and ends on another day.
This saves programming time and leaves more schedules available (in case they
are needed later).
For example, to set up a schedule to rollover from Tuesday evening to
Wednesday morning, set a schedule start time for 2200 (10:00 p.m.) and a stop
time for 0500 (5:00 a.m.). Set the schedule to turn on Tuesday. Because the stop
time is set for morning, the system automatically carries the schedule over to the
next day.
If you use the same start and stop times described above and set the schedule to
turn on Monday through Friday, then one schedule will cover the entire week.

Zones/sensors
Test sensors/zones after all programming is completed; whenever there is a
change in environment, equipment, or programming; and whenever a zone- or
sensor-related problem occurs.
If the system does not respond as described in the following procedure, see
Troubleshooting.
Note: While the sensor test is a valuable installation and service tool, it only tests
sensor operation for the current conditions. You should perform a sensor test
after any change in environment, equipment, or programming.
To test zones/sensors:
1. Place all sensors and zones in their nonalarm state.
2. At an alphanumeric touchpad, enter the sensor test mode by pressing 8,
installer code, 3. The touchpad sounds one beep and displays SENSOR
TEST. The panel starts a 15-minute timer.
3. Trip each zone/sensor one at a time. Touchpads (and interior sirens) should
sound one short, high-pitched beep, and the display should show the sensor
name (or number) and OK.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
98 Concord 4 Installation Manual
4. Press the Status button when you think all zones/sensors are tested. The
touchpad displays any untested sensors/zones and touchpad panics. If all
sensors/zones and touchpad panics have been tested, the display shows
SENSOR TEST OK.
5. Test any untested zones/sensors and touchpad panics.
Note: If you hear a long, low-pitched beep, proceed to “If a wireless sensor
does not test” below.
6. The system stays in sensor test mode for 15 minutes. When less than 5
minutes remain, touchpads and interior sirens beep and the panel announces
the remaining time over the speakers once every minute. After 15 minutes,
the panel disarms to off automatically. If you need more time to complete the
sensor test, press 8, installer code, 3 while the system is still in sensor test
mode. This restarts the 15 minutes of test time.
7. When all sensors/zones and touchpad panics have been tested, press 1,
installer code to exit sensor test mode.
If a wireless sensor does not test
If touchpads display SENSOR FAILURE and sirens sound a long, low-pitched
beep when a zone or sensor is tripped, this indicates that the wireless sensor
signal strength is below acceptable limits affecting the sensor signal strength.
When possible, locate wireless sensors within 100 ft. of the panel. While a
transmitter may have a range of 1,000 ft. (3000 m) or more out in the open, the
environment at the installation site can have a significant effect on transmitter
range. See Troubleshooting to resolve the problem.
For wireless sensors that don’t respond, use an RF Sniffer (60-401) test tool to
verify that the sensor is transmitting. Constant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate
a runaway (faulty) sensor. Remove the sensor batteries and replace the sensor.
Phone communication
Do a phone test to check the phone communication between the panel and the
central monitoring station.
To test phone communication:
1. Contact the central monitoring station to inform them that you are testing the
system.
2. Press 8, system master code, 2. The display reads PHONE TEST and the
touchpad sounds one beep. When the panel completes the test, the system
returns to the previous arming level automatically.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
Concord 4 Installation Manual 99
3. If the display continues to show PHONE TEST for 90 seconds or more, enter
1, system master code and see Troubleshooting.
Central station/pager communication
After doing sensor and phone tests, check that the system is reporting alarms
successfully to the central station or pager.
Caution: Be sure to contact the central monitoring station before activating
outputs that trigger from an alarm condition.
Account numbers vary when displayed, depending on pager service. Account
numbers are not displayed if Streamlining is turned on.
To test communication with the central station/pager:
1. Call the central station and tell the operator that you will be testing the
system.
2. Arm the system.
3. Test each of the touchpad and wireless panic buttons and trip at least one
sensor of each type (fire, intrusion, etc.) to verify correct operation.
4. Check pager displays to verify reports are received. Pagers display an event
code, digit sensor number, and the last four digits of the account number. A
pager display of 999 002 7468 indicates the following:
999 (alarm condition)
002 (sensor/zone in alarm or user number)
7468 (last four digits of account number)
5. When you finish testing the system, call the central monitoring station to verify
they received the alarms.

You will need a helper and DTMF phone at an offsite location to perform this test.
When testing the AVM from offsite you must follow these guidelines:
• Set the remote access feature to on (default).
• Set the audio verify feature to on.
• Set the system to a nonalarm state.
• Set the optional ring/hang/ring feature (default) to work with steps 1 and 2
below. Otherwise wait for 12 rings and the panel will pick up automatically.
To test the module from offsite:
1. The offsite helper calls the panel, lets the phone ring twice, and hangs up.
2. The helper must call the panel again in 10 to 40 seconds. The panel answers
System hello. This works if you have a phone interface voice module (part
#60-777-01) installed.
3. The helper dials the following on the phone, #, 1234, #, 8 (AVM access
CODE), 5.
4. The helper should now be able to hear you through the AVM.
5. Walk through the vicinity of the AVM while speaking at a normal conversation
level.
6. Tell the helper to dial a 1 and speak to you. To return to listen mode, the
helper dials a 3.
7. When testing is complete, have the helper dial 99 and hang up.
To test the module with the central station:
1. Inform the central station that you will be sending an alarm and testing an
AVM.
2. Give them the programming selections you made for the panel.
3. Use a panic button to initiate an auxiliary alarm.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
104 Concord 4 Installation Manual
4. The central station operator waits for the alarm to be reported and initiates an
audio session.
5. Walk through the vicinity of the AVM while speaking at a normal conversation
level.
6. Have the operator speak to you.
7. When testing is complete, the operator will end the session.
Cellular backup communication
To check the cellular communication between the panel and the central
monitoring station:
1. Contact the central monitoring station to inform them that you are testing the
system.
2. Install and activate the SuperBus 2000 cellular backup module.
3. Verify or change the following CS phone panel option settings shown in
“Cellular backup communication” above.
Note: If the current settings do not match the test settings, record the current
settings (Table 17 on page 101), so that they can be restored when this test is
complete.
4. Disconnect the phone line by unplugging the DB-8 cord from the RL 31X jack.
5. Initiate a phone test (8, system master code, 2).
6. The phone test attempt should fail via the phone line within 5 minutes. The
panel will emit a long low tone (and speak “phone failure 1” if so equipped).
7. Wait for the phone test to succeed via the cell backup. The panel should emit
a short high tone (and speak “phone test okay” if so equipped).
8. Verify the CS report.
9. If success does not occur, verify that the signal strength (RSSI) shown on the
cellular backup module is acceptable and repeat the process.

Panel power issues
Concord 4 transformers
Concord 4 uses a 16.5 VAC transformer, (600-1023 or 600-1024 with power line
carrier). Concord 3 uses a 24 VAC transformer. Using a 24 VAC transformer on
Concord 4 damages the panel.
The panel does not power up and touchpads don’t display or respond.
• Verify that the panel transformer is plugged into an unswitched outlet.
• Check the AC circuit breaker to be sure the circuit is live.
• Check that the backup battery is installed correctly and the AC power
transformer is plugged in.
• Check for proper panel and transformer wiring.
• Measure the incoming AC voltage at panel terminals 1 and 2. It should read
about 16.5 VAC.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
Concord 4 Installation Manual 107
No incoming AC voltage at panel terminals 1 and 2.
1. Unplug the AC power transformer and disconnect the wires from the
transformer and the panel.
2. Check transformer to panel wire for short or open circuits.
3. Plug in the transformer and check for 16.5 VAC at the transformer
unconnected terminals. If it shows zero (0) volts, replace the transformer.
WARNING: Do not check for voltage by touching two live wires together. This
may damage the transformer.
Touchpad display indicates System Low Battery or voice sounds, “System
low battery.”
• Check that the backup battery is installed correctly and the AC power
transformer is plugged in.
• Measure the incoming AC voltage at panel terminals 1 and 2. It should read
about 16.5 VAC.
• Check for 11.75 to 13.8 VDC battery voltage between the backup battery
spade lugs. If the battery voltage is not within this range, replace the battery.
Note: When the panel is running a backup battery test, the reading at the
connected battery can range from 11.2 to 13.5 VDC. The panel automatically
runs a backup battery test under the following conditions: (1) on initial power-up,
(2) during user sensor test, (3) once every minute when backup battery has
failed, (4) once every 24 hours at the programmed STIME (UL 98 Options off) or
once every 4 hours (UL 98 Options on).
With the AC power transformer plugged in, the panel automatically charges the
battery. While the battery is charging for the first time, it is normal for the system
to indicate System Low Battery. This can take a number of hours depending on
the initial battery charge. Once the battery reaches 12.5 VDC (full charge as
measured while in battery test), the condition clears. If the trouble condition
persists after 24 hours, replace the backup battery.
The touchpads flash AC or display AC Power Failure/AC Failure After
pressing STATUS the panel continues to operate from backup battery.
• Check the AC circuit breaker to be sure the circuit is live.
• Check for proper panel and transformer wiring.
• Check that the transformer is plugged into a nonswitched outlet and secured
with the provided screw.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
108 Concord 4 Installation Manual
• Check that the transformer is supplying AC to the panel.
WARNING: Be careful when securing the transformer to an outlet with a metal
cover. Hold the cover tightly in place. You could receive a serious shock if the
metal outlet cover drops down onto the prongs of the plug while you are securing
the transformer and cover to the outlet box.
Access code issues
Customer cannot remember access codes.
• Check your records to see if you have the customer’s access codes on file.
• Verify the access codes using the Enterprise Downloader software.
• Clear memory and reprogram the panel locally. Clearing the memory erases
all programming.
Installer cannot remember install code.
• Check your records to see if you have the install code on file.
• Verify the install code using the Enterprise Downloader software.
• Use the dealer code to enter program mode and view the installer code.
Installer cannot remember dealer code.
Check your records to see if you have the dealer code on file. If you don’t have
dealer codes, you need to replace the panel.
Arming and disarming issues
System protests and won’t arm.
• If arming to level 2, make sure all monitored perimeter doors and windows are
closed.
• If arming to level 3, make sure all perimeter and interior sensors are closed.
• Press STATUS for an indication of the problem.
System won’t disarm.
• You may be trying to disarm using an incorrect code. Verify correct code and
enter it.
• Access code is not programmed or set up in user programming to disarm
system. Wireless touchpad is not learned into system or hardwired touchpad
is not communicating to panel.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
Concord 4 Installation Manual 109
• The installer code is being used to disarm the system. The system is
designed not to disarm using the installer code. Use a regular or system
master code to disarm the system.
Bypassing issues
Touchpad indicates Invalid and/or “Invalid” is heard when you attempt to
bypass a sensor.
• You may be attempting to bypass a 24-hour sensor that cannot be bypassed
(group 26 fire sensors).
• The sensor is not active in the current arming level.
• Arm the system to the desired arming level, then bypass.
System cancels sensor bypass when you try to arm to Level 2 or 3.
Sensor is being bypassed before arming to Level 2 stay or Level 3 away. Arm to
the desired level before bypassing a sensor.
Wireless sensor and touchpad battery issues
System indicates Sensor/Touchpad nn low battery.
Replace the indicated device battery and test the sensor/touchpad after replacing
the battery.
Central station/pager reporting issues
Trouble with your central station or pager.
Check the programming, panel connections, and proper phone line with line
seizure.
To check your programming:
1. Make sure you enter the correct phone number.
2. Make sure you enter the correct account number.
3. Check that the appropriate format is chosen (SIA or CID).
4. Make sure the appropriate reports are turned on.
To check your panel connections:
1. Concord panels are polarity sensitive, so check for proper polarity:
The positive green lead or (TIP) wires must connect to terminal 25 on the
board.
Chapter 4: Testing and troubleshooting
110 Concord 4 Installation Manual
The negative red lead or (RING) wires must connect to terminal 28 on the
board.
2. Concord panels are voltage sensitive, so it’s necessary to check for proper
voltage:
On hook voltage should be approximately 48-52 volts.
Off hook voltage should be approximately 6-10 volts.
Note: The Concord panel has a built-in line voltage meter. If it does not see
proper voltage, it will not dial on a tone phone line. This does not apply to a pulse
phone line.
To check proper phone line with line seizure:
1. Check the type of phone line. Concord panels work with analog phone lines
or DSL with a DSL filter inline to the panel. VOIP or digital phone lines may
not work with the panels.
2. Check that the premise’s phone line is working.
3. Check that the DB-8 cord is plugged into the RJ31X/CA-38A jack.
4. Check for correct phone line wiring between the TELCO block and the
RJ31X/CA-38A jack.

Appendix B: Reference tables
Concord 4 Installation Manual 133
Cross-zoning
Cross-zoning (two-trip) refers to two different group 18 sensors that must be
tripped within two minutes of each other to report an alarm to the central station.
Figure 28 below shows the path of a person walking from the kitchen to the living
room. When the person is detected walking through the kitchen, the motion
sensor in the kitchen is tripped, sounding a local alarm. If motion is detected by
the living room motion sensor within two minutes, an alarm report will be sent to
the central station.
Figure 28: Cross-zone diagram
Note: We do not recommend cross-zoning for exit/entry zones. Each zone can
individually protect the intended area.

Response characteristics
Table 30 below describes the response characteristics.
Table 30: Response characteristics
Response characteristics
Description
Momentary trip time
The point remains active for nn seconds (n is 1 to 12 seconds).
The default is 4 seconds.
3-minute trip time
The point remains active for 3 minutes.
Siren-time trip time
The point remains active while the sirens are sounding.
Sustained trip time
The point remains active for the duration of the event.
Siren pattern
The point activates and deactivates according to the current
alarm type:
Auxiliary: fast on/off/on
Police: constant on
Fire: repeating
Trip delay
The point activates 30 seconds after the trigger event occurs.

[1] If an event does not trigger sirens, siren tracking response numbers activate without turning on
the output. If sirens are triggered by another event, the output pulses to match the siren. If the
siren cadence changes (from police to fire, for example), outputs set up for siren tracking change
to match the siren and all pulsing outputs pulse to one common cadence.
[2] If an event does not trigger sirens, siren time response times activate outputs only if sirens are
active for another reason.
[3] If an alarm event does not necessarily require disarming (no activity, closing report, etc.),
outputs set up for a sustained response time remain activated until the next arming level change.
[4] If an event occurs that activates an output set up for trip delay, the delay and output activation
can be canceled by trigger event restoral.
[5] Activated outputs set up for a 3-minute response time remain active for the entire three
minutes. To deactivate the output before the 3-minute time expires, you must enter program
mode or remove panel power. Activated outputs set up for a momentary or 3-minute response
time restart if the same trigger event occurs again.
Note: The mechanical lifetime of the relay may be exceeded if an output is set up
for a siren tracking response and a pulsing siren (auxiliary or fire) is active for
long periods. A SnapCard relay output’s lifetime expectancy is about 350 total
pulsing hours.
Note: The trip delay is factory set for 30 seconds and cannot be changed.
