Zone Expander DIP Switch settings
If the zones are set to a type 0-13 then every zone is set to a single zone per input and each zone can be set differ-
ently.
If the Global zone doubling option is turned on at P119E all zones on the panel are set to either a type 14 or 15
(depending on the selected option). When zone doubling is selected every second zone expander is used as per the
above chart as there will be 16 zones per expander not 8.
DIP switch number 8 disables the on-board tamper input if not required.
DIP Switches 4, 5, 6, & 7 are currently unused.
There is an LED associated with every input. They are labelled IP1—IP8.
LED IP1 relates to zone input 1 through to LED IP8 relates to zone input 8.
At power up the LED’s will cycle back and forth until communications is established with the main control panel.
Under normal conditions the LED’s will be off when the zone is sealed and on when the zone is unsealed so the
state of the zone can be displayed at the expander.
If the zone is monitored for a tamper condition (zone types 12, 13 or 14) the associated LED will flash to indicate a
tamper condition.
The zone expander can be powered from the main control panel (as shown on the connection diagram on the previ-
ous page) or there is an optional plug in 1A power supply module that can be fitted to the zone expander.
When the optional power supply module is fitted the 13.8V (POS) from the panel must not be connected, only the 0V
from the main control panel should be connected to the zone expander 0V.
NOTE: If there is an address clash (eg two zone expanders set to the same address number) the 8 LED’s will
display the following pattern, LED’s 1 & 8 On, changing to LED’s 2 & 7 On, changing to LED’s 3 & 6 On,
changing to LED’s 4 & 5 On, then all 8 LED’s will flash together twice then the pattern will repeat until the
address clash is removed.
