Alliance Arming Station

Installation Instructions

2

Tamper switch

The back tamper switch (

Figure 2

 on page 1) must be secured to 

work correctly. Make sure that the tamper switch remains 
depressed when the unit is mounted. If the unit is tampered with, 
the tamper switch should spring open.
In operation, the LCD screen will show 

RAS tamper

 when not 

sealed.

DIP switch settings

Use the DIP switches located on the back of the unit (

Figure 2

 on 

page 1) to set the RAS address and the system bus termination 
condition (

Figure 3

).

Figure 3. DIP switches

RAS address switches

Use switches 1 to 4 to set the RAS address (as well as the reader 
address for the AL-1116)

Figure 4

 shows the DIP switch settings 

for the system RAS addresses. Switch toggles are indicated as 
black. For example, RAS 1 is Off, Off, Off, Off.

Figure 4. RAS addresses

Term switch

Use switch 5 (

Figure 3

) to set the system bus termination to 

ON

if needed.
There must be no more than two Term switches or links set to 

ON

 

for any system bus. Refer to the control panel installation manual 
for details about the Term switches or links.

Wiring

Use the terminal block (

Figure 5

) on the back of the unit to wire 

the COMMS system bus connection.

Figure 5. Terminal block

System bus connection (D+ and D-)

Connect the unit to the Alliance panel via the RS-485 system 
bus. You can connect the unit up to 5,000 ft. (1.5 km) from the 
control panel or 4 door/elevator controller DGP. We recommend 
you use a Beldon 8723 twisted-pair, shielded data cable.
The shield of any system bus cable must be connected to system 
ground at one end only. This unit does not provide an Earth 
connection for this purpose. If you daisy-chain the system bus to 
the unit, ensure that the shield of the cable is jointed to provide 
continuity of the data cable shield.

D+.  

Data positive connection of the system bus.

D-.  

Data negative connection of the system bus.

Power supply (+12 and 0V)

You can power the unit by the control panel or by a separate 
power supply. If you use the control panel’s + and - power, the 
distance between the unit and the control panel must not exceed 
328 ft. (100 m). 
To power the unit by the AUX PWR from a DGP, or by an auxil-
iary power source, do the following:
1.

Connect the + of the local power supply to the +12 terminal 
of the unit (

Figure 6

). Do not connect the + power of the 

system bus to the unit.

2.

Connect the - of the local power supply to the 0V terminal 
of the unit and to the - power of the system bus.

3.

For optimal performance, adjust the power supply to 13.8 
VDC.
