3.4.1. Detectors 
The CommPact supports 33 security zones. Only one detector can be registered to each 
zone. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default. Zone 33 is an on-board 
hardwire zone (can be configured as NO, NC or EOL). 
Step 1: Register a detector
1.  Go to the main menu and select [9]>[1]>[1] (Programming> Devices > Zones) 
2.  Using the arrow keys, select a specific zone and press 
'√'. The system initiates 
Registration mode. 
3.  Send two transmissions from the detector. A confirmation sound is heard after 
each successful signal (chime sound). After two successful transmissions a 
confirmation beep is heard. 
Sending the transmissions can be done in several ways, as summarized in 
Table 2.
