Installation
Informer15 Speaker (Model I-IP15)
The open collector/relay output is capable of controlling an external device. The open
collector and +24 Vdc are located at pins 1 and 2 of the removable output connector
JP6 on the controller board.
The output for controlling an external relay is limited to 30 Vdc and 100 mA
maximum. The speaker provides a 24 Vdc source to power relays or devices
which require current draw less than 20 mA. If a relay is used, which requires up
to 100 mA, an external 24 Vdc supply is required. Do not exceed the voltage and
current ratings listed in the Specifications section of this manual. When using this
feature, the open collector/relay outputs turn on until one of the following occurs:
• Until the programmed default timeout occurs
• Until the CANCEL or RESET command is received
You can configure the open collector/relay output to open, close, and cycle based on
a pre-programmed sequence. The open collector/relay output can also be configured
to turn on when PA VOIP is active. Refer to
Informer-IP Setup, Program, and User
Manual
for programming your Informer.
6. If using a scrolling message board, use JP11.
7. If using in standalone mode, use JP8.
Standalone mode allows the Informer15 Speaker to be activated from the Alarm
Initiation Inputs without being connected to a network. The Informer15 requires
setup prior to placing into standalone mode. All configuration should be performed
prior to installing. Once the unit is configured and tested, place a shorting jumper
across pins 1 and 2 of JP8, OPTION 1. To configure the Informer15 Speaker, use
Commander software version 15.4 or later. See the
Informer Setup and Programming
Manual
