Wireless Expansion
When it's either necessary or desirable to utilize wireless zones, the ORBIT-Pro's Wireless Expansion Modules will
respond to Rokonet's own NOVA transmitters and to Orbit’s Rolling Code Transmitters.. The Wireless Module
employs superheterodyne technology, has programmable supervision time, detects a low battery condition in
transmitters, tamper attempts, and provides indications of signal jamming. Wireless and hardwired zones may be
mixed in the same system, with the total of all zones (hardwired plus wireless) limited to 96.
Partitions
Any zone or group of zones can be assigned to any of 8 independent partitions. Partitioning allows a single ORBIT-
Pro to protect each dwelling in a multi-family house, several departments in a commercial or institutional facility,
and even several closely situated stores a strip mall. Each partition supports zone-sharing and cross-zoning.
Keypads
The ORBIT-Pro can support up to 16 keypads, with a choice of four styles (two LCD-type and two LED-type) from
which virtually all system features may be accessed.
The LCD Keypads come in two styles: Custom Plus (shown
here), with a large display and Custom (with a smaller display).
The LED Keypads also come in two styles: 16 Zone (shown
here), with 16 Zone LEDs and 8 Zone (with 8 Zone LEDs).
Each keypad is equipped with three Emergency Key zones (Panic, Fire, Auxiliary Emergency) and the ability to
produce a Duress (Ambush) Code. All keypads are tamper-protected and employ backlighting for their display and
their keys, which also produce audible feedback when pressed. Keypads can be programmed to detect and
discourage unsuccessful attempts at disarming, and incorporate easy-to-use hot-key sequences for simple zone
bypassing and to display information about unsecured zones. A one key Quick-Arm feature, for both "Stay" and
"Away" modes of operation, can be selected for ease of use.
In partitioned systems, keypads can be selectively assigned to specific partitions, but LED-type keypads can be
used only in systems, which do not exceed their ability to display zone indications. Thus, the 8-LED Keypad (p/n
RP296KL8) cannot be used in a system with more than 8 zones, nor can the 16-LED Keypad (p/n RP296KL16) be
used when more than 16 zones are installed.
User Codes and Authority Levels
Each ORBIT-Pro installation typically accommodates up to 99 unique User Codes of up to 6 digits each–each code
assignable to one of several Authority Levels and, if used, to multiple partitions.
Keyswitches (Not for UL Installations)
For those premises locations in which a simple keyswitch will suffice, the ORBIT-Pro is capable of supporting an
SPST, normally-open, momentary type. The keyswitch permits the arming and disarming of the system (or one of
its partitions).
