1.4.4 Printer Transient Module (PTRM)
The serial output on the BSM is via an existing RS-232 RJ-11 connector, J3. This can be used to communi-
cate to the control with a laptop computer while at the panel. The PTRM module is intended for systems where
a permanent connection is required. This type of connection requires that the RS-232 port have sufficient
transient protection to comply with the applicable codes for wiring leaving the confines of the control box, as well
as the proper isolation of the signal to prevent damage or interference caused by connection to certain EDP
devices. Connections are limited to the same room. The PTRM supplies supervision and transient protection as
well as the necessary isolation.

NOTICE: Terminal TB4 must be connected to an earth ground connection per Article 760 of the National
Electric Code. Failure to make a proper earth ground connection to a metallic cold water pipe or driven
ground rod to this terminal will result in loss of lightning protection, reduce the tolerance of the system to
transients, and will adversely affect the operation of the system. Panel neutral or conduit ground is not
acceptable; minimum wire size is 14 AWG.
