VERVIEW AND

UPPORTED

The Honeywell/Ademco Vista 128BPT, 250BPT are security panels that integrate with the g! system

using an RS-232 serial connection. The panel has an on board serial interface to enable the RS-232

communication between the g! system controller and the control panel.

Integration of the security system provides monitoring and control from any touch screen or computer

both locally and remotely. Additionally, events occurring in the security system can trigger system

commands in other sub-systems in the home. For example, a burglar alarm can turn all the lights on and

send out email alerts.

T

HESE PANELS SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING FEATURES

Arm – Disarm: Arm and disarm from the Viewer interface is supported for all partitions and user codes.

Status information is available for all partitions.

Zone Status: Zone status information is available for all zones (in any partition), and is properly shown in

the Viewer. See exceptions below.

History View: The history view is properly supported on any Viewer.

Auto Zone and Partition Detection: The g! system will automatically detect zones and partitions upon

connection to the panel.

T

HESE PANELS DO NOT SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING FEATURES

Zone Bypass: Zones cannot be bypassed from the g! interface, only from the Ademco keypads. In the

Ademco panel zones can be configured to automatically bypass if they are faulted when arming the

panel. Using this feature works well to overcome this limitation.

Auto Arm: Arming as a System Command from the Event Mapper is not supported with this panel.

Zone Status: Zone status information for entry and exit zones is not communicated to g! during entry

and exit delays.

Entry/Exit Delay: This panel will not notify g! that it is in entry or exit delay, as a result entry/exit delay as

a System Trigger or Condition and Announce Security Events is not supported with this panel.

Relays: The relays on the panel can not be controlled from the g! interface or the Event Mapper.

Panic Button: The g! interface cannot send a panic command to the Ademco panel.

See Communication Details for warnings about BPT communication experiences.

Any feature not specifically noted as supported should be assumed to be unsupported.
