PART 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 FEATURES • Up to 16 fully programmable zones • Two completely independent partitions. Many of the features and options in the Spectra System can be independently set for each partition such as event reporting, entry/exit delay, auto-arming and many more. All zones, the keyswitches and all user codes are assigned to specific partitions, which makes this a true partitioned system. • Communication bus facilitates the adding, programming and monitoring of all expansion modules.
PART 2: INSTALLATION 2.1 LOCATION AND MOUNTING Before mounting the cabinet, push the five white nylon mounting studs into the back of the cabinet. Pull all cables into the cabinet and prepare them for connection before mounting the circuit board into the back of the cabinet. Select an installation site that isn't easily accessible to intruders and leave at least 2in. (5cm) around the panel box to permit adequate ventilation and heat dissipation.
Figure 2.2: Spectra 1728EX and 1728 Control Panel Overview For the keypad’s zone, EOL and tamper configurations, refer to Configuring The LED Keypads on page 12. For UL Listed warnings, refer to UL and ULC Warnings on page 53. 2.2 EARTH GROUND Connect the zone and dialer ground terminals from the control panel to the metallic enclosure and cold water pipe or grounding rod as per local electrical codes.
2.3 AC POWER Do not use any switch-controlled outlets to power the transformer. Connect the transformer as shown in Figure 2.1 on page 4. Use Table 1 to determine the required transformer. Table 1: Transformer Requirements Table Transformer: Amseco XP-1620 16VAC 20VA (Not verified by UL) Spectra DC Power Supply rated at: 1.2A Auxiliary Supply can provide a maximum of: typ: 600mA, max: 700mA Acceptable Battery Charge Currents 350mA 2.4 UL: Basler Electric BE156240CAA007 16.5VAC 40VA 1.
2.7 BELL OUTPUT CONNECTION The BELL+ and BELL- terminals power bells, sirens and other warning devices requiring a steady voltage output during an alarm. The bell output supplies 12VDC upon alarm and can support one 30-watt or two 20-watt sirens. The bell output uses a fuseless circuit and will automatically shut down if the current exceeds 3A. When this occurs the Maximum Bell Current failure will only appear in the keypads’ Trouble Display (see page 46) during an alarm.
2.9 SINGLE ZONE INPUTS Detection devices such as motion detectors and door contacts are connected to the control panel's zone input terminals. Figure 2.5 on page 8 demonstrates single zone input terminal connections recognized by Spectra. Once connected, the associated zone's parameters must be defined. For details refer to Zone Programming on page 16. Figure 2.5: Single Zone Input Connections 2.
2.11 KEYPAD AND KEYPAD ZONE CONNECTIONS To connect the keypads to the control panel, remove the back cover and wire the GRN, YEL, RED, and BLK terminals of each keypad to the corresponding terminals on the control panel as shown in Figure 2.1 on page 4 or Figure 2.2 on page 5. There is no limit to the number of keypads that can be connected to the control panel so long as the current consumption does not surpass 700mA. For details on Keypad Tamper Supervision see section 10.8 on page 40.
2.13 FIRE CIRCUITS When a zone is programmed as a Fire zone, the zone becomes normally open and requires an EOL resistor. If a line short occurs or if the smoke detector becomes active, whether the system is armed or disarmed, the control panel will generate an alarm. If a trouble occurs on a Fire zone, the Fire Loop Trouble will appear in the keypads’ Trouble Display (see page 46) and the control panel can transmit the Fire Loop Trouble report, if programmed, in section [206]. Figure 2.9: Fire Zones 2.

3.3 CONFIGURING THE LED KEYPADS Depending on the version of the keypad, two methods can be used to configure the LED keypads (1686H, 1686V and 1689): 3.3.1 CONFIGURING T HE 1686H, 1686V AN D 1689 K EYPAD S V2.0 OR H IGHER The keypad’s zone number, EOL definition and tamper switch are programmed through the control panel’s programming mode.
J2 - EOL Definition Jumper Jumper J2 determines the keypad zone’s EOL definition. When the jumper is OFF, EOL is disabled and the keypad zone uses the on-board EOL resistor. When the jumper is ON, EOL is enabled and the keypad zone requires that an external EOL resistor be connected (refer to Spectra 1738EX and 1738 Control Panel Overview on page 4 and Spectra 1728EX and 1728 Control Panel Overview on page 5 for more details). J2 OFF - EOL disabled J2 ON - EOL enabled 3.

This option is not permitted on UL systems. [1] OFF / [2] ON: Trouble Only If the system is armed and a tamper wiring failure occurs on a zone, the control panel will follow the zone's Alarm Types setting (see page 21).
Silent alarm: The control panel emits a Confirmation Beep and transmits the appropriate Panic report code if programmed in section [195]. The control panel will not enable the keypad buzzers or the control panel’s BELL output (no audible alarm). Audible alarm: Same as silent alarm, except the keypad buzzers and the BELL output will activate until a user cancels the alarm (disarms) with a valid User Access Code or when the Bell Cut-Off Timer elapses (see page 26).
PART 8: REPORTING AND DIALER SETTINGS The following section explains all the features and options that must be programmed in order for your security system to properly report system events to a central station. When an event (e.g. zone in alarm) occurs in the system, the control panel verifies if a report code was programmed in the section corresponding to the event (except Ademco Contact ID “All Codes”).
8.1 REPORTING/DIALER (ENABLE/DISABLE) 8.2 REPORT CODES Section [135]: Dialer Options Option [3] OFF = Reporting/Dialer Disabled (default) Option [3] ON = Reporting/Dialer Enabled A report code is a 1- or 2-digit hexadecimal value consisting of digits from 1 to F. Each section from [160] to [213] represents a set of up to four specific events and each of these events can be programmed with a separate 1- or 2digit report code.

Table 10: Trouble List LED # Description Telephone Line Monitoring [10] [S TA Y ] or Fire Loop Trouble [11] [M EM ] or [13] If the Telephone Line Monitoring (TLM) feature is enabled (see section [135]), this trouble indicates that the control panel has not detected the presence of a telephone line for 30 seconds. Indicates a wiring problem on a Fire Zone. Press [S TA Y ] to view the zones that are generating this trouble.
12.3 DISARMING & DEACTIVATING AN ALARM To disarm an already armed system or to deactivate an alarm, simply key in a valid access code. Program a designated entry/exit point, such as the front door or the garage door with an Entry Delay Timer. When these entry/ exit point are opened (breached), it will set off a timer. The system will not generate an alarm until this timer elapses, giving users enough time to enter the premises and disarm the system.
12.7 FORCE ARMING Force Arming allows users to rapidly arm the system, without having to wait for all zones in the system to be closed. Force Arming is commonly used when a motion detector is protecting the area occupied by a keypad. Therefore, when arming the system, if the motion detector is set as a Force Zone, the control panel will ignore the zone and allow users to arm the system even if the zone is open. Any open Force Zones at the time of arming will be considered deactivated by the control panel.
One-Touch Regular Arming Press and hold the [EN T ER ] key for 3 seconds* to arm all zones in the partition.
