Troubleshooting the VA8201:
* No data transmission but systems arms and disarms.
Fix:
Check fields 05,14,1*70
* No response to Rs232 commands.
Fix:
Check fields 1*69,2*30
* Panel transmitting data to home automation, home automation data not affecting panel.
Fix:
Check voltage on terminal 23, pager module pulls zone from 12VDC to 400mVDC.
Check power to pager module.
* Panel showing Pager Off line.
Fix:
Pager module green wire not connected to zone of panel (terminal 23).
There may be no power to pager module. Also check terminal 23, zone 9, to ground
makes sure there is 4vdc there. If there is not then it will also show pager off line.
Voltage Checks:
Green wire to panel ground should read 400mVDC and raise to 0VDC on transmission.
Brown wire of J8 (from panel) to panel ground should read 600mVDC and raise to 0VDC on
transmission.
If any problems occur, also verify that in zone programming, zone 9 has been disabled.
Communications protocol must be set for the following:
1200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, one stop bit
Wiring:
The VA8201 cannot be any further from the panel than the distance of the trigger cable. This is a
limitation of the driver on the panel. The home-auto pc itself can be up to 50' from the VA8201.
Pin Out:
This is the pin out for the Db9 to Db25 in the event a cable may need to be made. Recommended
wire: Cat 5 unshielded, if shielded or in conduit then the 50’
distance would be reduced to 25’.
DB9 DB25 Name
1 8 DCD
2 3 RxD
3 2 TxD
4 20 DTR
5 7 SG
6 6 DSR
7 4 RTS
8 5 CTS
9 22 RI
RxD, TxD, SG, and DSR are the only pins used by the VA8201.
