I just installed the 16 zone panel with the RFK5501 keypad that has a wireless 32 zone receiver built-in.
I have enrolled the keypad as 11, and placed 3 wireless devices (2x WS4945 door xmitters and one WS4904P PIR). All of the devices were entered using the *8 [Installers Code]804, with 01 being the PIR, 02 and 03 the door xmitters. I tested all devices using the *8 [Installers Code]904, then 01, 02 and 03 for the devices. They all produced green flashes on the keypad.
I followed the Installation guide on page 29 and defined the zones *8 [Installers Code]001 as 01=01(delay), 02=01(delay) and 03=03(instant), all others (Zone 04 thru 16 as 00).
I set the partition 1 entry/exit times as *8 [Installers Code]005 01 030,030,030.
I set the bell cut off timer *8 [Installers Code]005 09 as 120.
When I set the alarm for Away Arm, none of the wireless sensors are noticed as I exit, and when I reenter after the delay.
What else do I need to do? Would it be easier to order the programming cable and do it with a PC?
Thanks for any insight!

go into your attributes and turn on number 8 for wirless. *8,
installer code, 101 turn on 8, #, 102, turn on 8, #, 103, turn on 8, ##. that should fix you up? can i ask you a question? how come you have the pir as a delayed zone, just curious. also you have your bell set for 120 minutes. not sure if your away of this.

Tallcanadian, thanks for the input!
The PIR is on delay because it overlaps the front door. If I don't delay it also, it will activate the alarm before I can shut down the system at the keypad.
If I activate these attributes, will the chime (pre-alarm) work also?
10 minutes for the bell...my neighbors thank you!

*8, installer code, 102, turn on 3, #, then 103, turn on 3, ##. then push *4 or press and hold the chime key and get 5 or 6 quick beeps. make sure 101, the motion does not have 3 turned on or the chime will activate each time you walk past it.
