INTRODUCTION TO THE ORBIT-6  
The ORBIT-6 is intended to address the needs of many homes, offices, and small  
businesses. Its operation is designed around microprocessor and EEPROM  
(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) technology, which stores,  
without the need for a source of power, the system’s operating program and its  
programmable parameters.  
System programming may be performed from any ORBIT-6 keypad, or from a special  
LCD Programming Keypad designed specifically for that.  
Remote and local system programming is also possible through the use of Rokonet’s  
ORBIT Upload/Download software.

INSTALLATION  
Before You Begin  
Be sure the actual work is performed by experienced personnel, licensed to carry out  
security system installations and capable of implementing all applicable requirements of the  
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA-70 and NFPA-74), as well as any federal, state,  
and local codes–along with any safety guidelines and regulations which might apply.  
Mounting and Wiring the Control Panel  
(refer to figures 1A, 1B & 1C on pages  
32, 33 & 34)  
1. Mount the ORBIT-6’s metal cabinet at a protected dry location, near a source of  
unswitched AC Power, a good ground, and access to telephone service. Use the proper  
hardware (e.g. anchors, mollys, toggle bolts, etc.), as required, to insure a suitable  
mounting.  
2. Thread all electrical wiring through a convenient hole in the metal cabinet. To prevent  
potential damage, be sure that live AC power is NOT present and that the Standby  
Battery is NOT connected. Refer to Figures 1A and 1B. Your wiring may include any  
and all of the following:  
· connections to Hardwired Zones  
· connections to devices requiring Uninterrupted Auxiliary Power (e.g. PIRs, Glass  
Break Detectors)  
· connections to Smoke Detectors requiring Resettable Power  
· connections to any External Sounders  
3. If using Utility Output, connect the UO/ECL output, this terminal is designed to activate a  
low current device (e.g. a 12 VDC Relay, drawing no more than 70 mA).  
If using UO expansion module, connect the UO/ECL terminal to the ECL terminal input  
in the expansion module. In this case the first UO on the expansion module will become  
UO1. (see figures A1)  
4. Make connections from the RJ31X (or equivalent) telephone company interface.  
5. Make connections to the system’s keypad(s) by the correspnding wire colors.  
6. Make connections to AC Power (via a 16.5 VAC, 25 VA transformer). Do not plug in the  
transformer at this time.  
7. Have a Standby Battery ready (typically 12 VDC, 4 AH), but do not connect it at this  
time.  
8. All zone inputs are End Of Line supervised, use 2200 ohm resistors (supplied).  
9. When using 8 LED keypad, zones 7 & 8 are end-of-line supervised. Use 2200 ohm  
resisters (supplied) when the zones are not in use. For further wiring instructions of the  
8 LED keypad, refer to Figure 1C on page 34.  
10. If using a Key-switch, use a momentary key-switch. The receiver (if used) must give a  
pulse output and not on/off.  
11. To connect the panic button use the white wire as (+) and the black wire as (-).  
Note: The maximum distance between the panic button and the keypad is 30 meters.

Installer Manual  
 
INSTALLER PROGRAMMING  
The keypad  
The Orbit-6 can support up to 4 keypads, with  
a choice of 3 styles, 1 LCD type and two LED  
types from which virtually all features may be  
accessed. In addition to the functions it  
provides for the user, each of the keypads can  
be used by an installer to program the system  
parameters.  
An attempt to enter an incorrect series of  
keystrokes will result with 3 error beeps.  
All program location values (data) are  
displayed by zone indicators on the LED  
keypad in binary format.  
Restoring Factory Defaults to the ORBIT-6  
1. Your ORBIT-6 and at least one LED Keypad should already be wired together  
and/or physically installed  
2. Remove all power from the Printed Circuit  
3. Place the ORBIT-6’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper over both corresponding pins. (See  
Figures 1A and 1B on page 32 and 33 ).  
4. Reapply power (AC and/or Standby Battery) to the PC Board.  
5. After a short beep is heard, remove the J1 jumper. The ORBIT-6’s default settings  
are now restored.  
6. Check that the POWER LED is flashing. Depending on the state of the system, the  
READY LED and the Zone LEDs may or may not be lit.  
Introduction to Programming  
First, check that the panel’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper is NOT covering both pins on the  
PC Board.  
The ORBIT-6 stores information in 86 programming locations.  
The data stored in any location is represented by numbers and/or letters. Some  
locations require just one digit, while most require two. Others (e.g. those used to  
store phone numbers and account numbers) may require several more digits.  
It is not necessary to enter data into all 86 categories. Many locations have been  
factory-programmed with default parameters.  
Note that power can be removed from the ORBIT-6, as its memory does not require a  
source of power to retain its information.

Installer Manual  
 
Viewing the Contents of a Location  
It’s often necessary to check the data stored in a memory  
location to be sure it’s correct. If improper data is found, it must  
be corrected in order to obtain the desired system response. The  
data in a location can either be a number (from 0-9) or a letter  
(from A-F). Doing so takes advantage of the hexadecimal  
numbering system. For our purposes, the characters A through F  
will be referred to as hexadecimal digits.  
Whenever the Installer Programming mode is active, the first 4  
keypad’s Zone LEDs (1-4) are used to reveal each digit in a  
selected location. By adding up the values assigned to the lit  
LEDs, the contents of any location can be determined. See table  
below.

Locations Whose Contents Occupy More Than One Digit  
When a location contains more than one digit, they cannot be viewed  
simultaneously. As soon as a location is accessed, the first digit is displayed  
automatically. Additional digits (if they exist) can be displayed by pressing the  
following keys:  
Used to display the next digit in a location containing at least two  
digits; e.g. if 5-6-7-8 is stored in a location, the “5” is displayed first;  
by pressing  
, the “6” will be displayed; continue this  
process to display the entire contents of the chosen location. Error  
beeps will be produced when it’s attempted to display digits which  
don’t exist  
Used to move backwards among the digits stored in a location  
containing at least two digits. Error beeps will be produced when it’s  
attempted to display digits which don’t exist  
Audible Tones and Error Beeps  
To confirm an operation, a single, long beep will be heard. However, any improper use  
of the keypad resulting in an error or an unacceptable response will produce three  
rapid beeps. If heard, repeat the operation or exit the programming mode and try again.  
How to program installer parameters  
1. To enter the Installer programming mode:  
Press 4 digit Installer code followed by # (factory default 0 2 0 6)  
2. To move to a new location:  
Press two digits of location followed by ARM  
3. To enter data into the location:

Entry/Exit Delay  
If violated, a zone with this designation will not cause an intrusion alarm during the  
Entry and Exit Delay periods  
Exit (OPEN)/Entry  
Such a zone behaves as described above in Entry/Exit Delay, except that if faulted at  
the time the system is armed, it will be bypassed and NOT prevent system arming.  
To avoid an intrusion alarm, however, it must be secured before the expiration of the  
Exit Delay period (Location 11).

Entry Follower  
A zone(s) given this designation will cause an immediate intrusion alarm when violated  
unless an Entry/Exit zone was violated first if so, an Entry Follower zone(s) will remain  
bypassed until the end of the Entry Delay period  
Interior + Entry Delay Follower  
If the system is armed to AWAY (ARM) mode: this type of zone behaves like the Entry  
Follower, described above  
If the system is armed to the STAY mode: this type of zone will be bypassed  
Important Note: When arming with "STAY" mode it is possible for the user to eliminate  
the entry delay period by pressing the (STAY) key twice in succession when arming  
the system.

SPECIAL ZONE TYPES:  
Location: 18 Zone 5: Fire Zone  
Zone 5 is reserved as a Fire Zone, supports four-wire Smoke Detectors. Smoke  
Detector power must be interruptible in order to reset a detector “latched” in alarm. As  
such it should be derived from the UO/ECL or one of the UOs terminal (see Figures 1A  
and 1B). The related UO should be defined as AUX power switch.  
Location: 18 Zone 5: (1st Digit): Type  
Default: Fire  
1st Digit  
Zone Type and Comments  
Fire  
A fire zone cannot be disabled or bypassed.  
A fault in the wiring to the zone will cause a Fire Trouble (fire LED blinks).  
A short in the zone wiring will cause a fire alarm.

Installer Manual  
 
Location: 18 Zone 5: (2nd Digit): Sound  
Default: External Sounder (Pulses)  
For fire zone the recommended (default) zone sound is “External sounder pulsed”  
However it is possible to change the zone sound and type to any of the ones provided in the  
previous list.  
Location: 19 Zone 6: Tamper Zone  
Zone 6 is reserved as a Tamper Zone. This zone can be programmed to any zone type (except  
Fire) including Tamper. If the zone was programmed as Tamper, in violation, a Tamper Code  
report will be sent and the Tamper LED on the keypad (marked as 6/Tmp) will light up.  
UTILITY OUTPUTS: LOCATIONS 22-25  
The ORBIT-6 supports one open collector Utility Output (derived between the UO/ECL and AUX  
terminals) which can be used for switching an external device on or off. Once the Utility Output is  
activated the device will be connected between AUX (+12V) and ground (0V). This connection is  
capable of switching light loads of no more than 70mA.  
Note: When activated the utility output is switched to the Negative Polarity.  
The “UO” can be also used to reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s). In that case the 12V power to  
the smoke detector will be supplied via the UO (see Figures 1A and 1B). The UO should be  
defined as AUX switch.  
If the Utility Output Expansion Module is being used, the same information in Location 22 is  
applicable for the programming of UO2 (Location 23), UO3 (Location 24), and/or UO4 (Location  
25). It is not necessary to program all of the available “UOs”, unless they’re used. Note that  
when the Utility Output Expansion Module is employed, the original Utility Output on the Main  
Board (the UO/ECL terminal) is no longer available.  
Important: In order to use the Utility Output Expansion you have to define the module in  
Location 30.  
Because of the “UO’s” modest 70 mA  
current capability, it will be necessary to  
use  
an  
“intermediate”  
relay-whose  
physical contacts can switch far greater  
currents (limited by their contact rating).  
The figure at the left shows how such a  
relay can trigger a strobe light. If used in  
this manner, the “UO” cannot be used to  
reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s).  
22  
If more than one “UO” output is necessary, a  
Utility Output Expansion Module is available. Its  
four “UOs” (U01, UO2, UO3, and UO4) replace  
the ORBIT-6’s single “on-board ”UO”. The “UOs”  
on the Utility Output Expansion Module are  
relay-based, and allow a maximum current of  
500 mAs. Refer to Figures 1A and 1B (pages 32  
and 33), for wiring instructions and additional  
information. The figure at the right, shows how a  
Utility Output on the “UO Expander” can be used  
to switch a table lamp on and off.

User Activated (Toggle)  
1A  
UO may be activated by the user through the entry of [*]+[2]+[User Code]+[X], where X  
refers to the utility output number.  
The first entry of the above sequence activates the UO and causes it to latch in the  
opposite of its current state. The system briefly lights the Zone LED corresponding to the  
selected UO and produces a single confirming beep subsequent entries toggle the  
response from ON to OFF to ON, etc.  
User Activated (Pulse)  
UO may be activated by the user through the entry of [*]+[2]+[User Code]+[X], where X  
refers to the utility output number.  
The entry activates the UO for several seconds (pulse). The system briefly lights the  
Zone LED corresponding to the selected UO and produces a single confirming beep  
subsequent entries repeat this pattern.

AUX POWER Switch (Fire)  
Until triggered, UO is normally activated and is designed to be a part of the circuit  
supplying power to the Smoke Detector(s); see Figure 1A and 1B.  
After a Fire Alarm is disarmed, it may be necessary to reset any Smoke Detector(s)  
which may be “latched” in alarm. A “latched” Smoke Detector will cause the keyboard’s  
FIRE LED to remain lit, even though the panel may be disarmed. To reset a Smoke  
Detector, a “UO” used in this manner must be momentarily deactivated; this action is  
performed by the user, who must enter [*]+[2]+[User Code]+[X], where [X] refers to the  
UO number (i.e. 1,2,3, or 4) in the circuit providing Smoke Detector power. If this is not  
done, it will be impossible to arm the panel; please advise your customer of this  
contingency which is stated in the ORBIT-6’s User Manual.

CS Protocols:  
When selecting a contact ID & SIA format, all the reporting codes will be automatically  
applied to the locations of the reporting codes.  
To change a code, enter a new code (according to the type of event – see page 30) to the  
corresponding location.  
When selecting the Pulsed Protocol the default for all the reported codes will be “00” and  
any other code should be entered manually  
To remove a particular reporting code from any of the 3 Protocols enter “00” into the  
corresponding location.  
Important: Choose the code format only after defining the zone parameters. Changing a  
zone type after selecting the code format WILL NOT change the zone’s reporting code and  
a faulty report will be sent to the central station.

Notes on Alarm Restorals  
An ORBIT-6 Restoral Report informs the Central Station that the external sounder’s operation,  
initially triggered by the respective alarm condition, has either “timed out” or been silenced by the  
act of system disarming. Be sure to check with Central Station personnel if restorals are  
permitted and, if so, what codes are required.

ROKONET LIMITED WARRANTY  
Rokonet Electronics, Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates ("Seller") warrants  
its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under  
normal use for 18 months from the date of production. Because Seller does  
not install or connect the product and because the product may be used in  
conjunction with products not manufactured by the Seller, Seller can not  
guarantee the performance of the security system which uses this product.  
Sellers obligation and liability under this warranty is expressly limited to  
repairing and replacing, at Sellers option, within a reasonable time after the  
date of delivery, any product not meeting the specifications. Seller makes no  
other warranty, expressed or implied, and makes no warranty of  
merchantability or of fitness for any particular purpose.  
In no case shall seller be liable for any consequential or incidental damages  
for breach of this or any other warranty, expressed or implied, or upon any  
other basis of liability whatsoever.  
Sellers obligation under this warranty shall not include any transportation  
charges or costs of installation or any liability for direct, indirect, or  
consequential damages or delay.  
Seller does not represent that its product may not be compromised or  
circumvented; that the product will prevent any persona; injury or property  
loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or that the product will in all  
cases provide adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a  
properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of burglary,  
robbery or fire without warning, but is not insurance or a guaranty that such  
will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a  
result.  
Consequently seller shall have no liability for any personal injury, property  
damage or loss based on a claim that the product fails to give warning.  
However, if seller is held liable, whether directly or indirectly, for any loss or  
damage arising from under this limited warranty or otherwise, regardless of  
cause or origin, sellers maximum liability shall not exceed the purchase price  
of the product, which shall be complete and exclusive remedy against seller.  
No employee or representative of Seller is authorized to change this  
warranty in any way or grant any other warranty.  
WARNING: This product should be tested at least once a week.
