The Vista panel picks up then disconnects in 2 seconds - not enough time for handshake.

Do I have to program the panel to accept dial in?

The panel is connected to Fios Voice line.

It's been over 10 years since I worked with Compass to download panel programs, but you can probably find someone here to advise you:
http://www.shieldlab.com/forum/ It's a DIY forum for alarm systems. Lots of expertise there. Post on the Honeywell / Ademco Tech Support section.

I assume you already have the Installation and programming manuals, and have already programmed data fields *94 and *95 for downloading? As far as I can remember, that's the only thing needed to accept a downloader dial-in. Mention what you've already done when you first post: It saves time.

EDIT: I suspect the Fios phone service might be the problem: Alarm panels are designed to "listen" for a POTS line.
