2.3 Box Tamper Input
The box tamper input does not require an end-of-line resistor and requires a normally closed contact.
2.4 Installing an Expander Module
When installing an expander module refer to the document supplied with the module. Note that only one
(8-zone) expansion module may be added to the IDS 816 Alarm Panels.
2.5 Connecting the Telephone Communicator
Refer to Figure 1. Connection Diagram (Page 9).
For optimum lightning protection, connect a low impedance earth to the communicator earth input.
Always connect the telephone communicator in line seizure mode and never in parallel with the
telephone. Ensure the telephone receiver is connected to the communicator terminals marked “phone”
and the incoming line to the terminals marked “line”.
2.6 Programmable Outputs
A relay board must be used when any device requiring a high current is connected to a programmable
output. The programmable output circuitry consists of a 12-volt source with a 56
Ω
series resistor.
Current sink is via a 1 000
Ω
resistor to negative. For information purposes, the output circuitry for a
single output is shown in Figure 5.

2.7 Key-switch or Remote Control Unit
A momentary key-switch or non-latching remote control receiver may be connected to any zone to allow
remote arm/disarm and remote panic capability.

When using a key-switch or remote control unit a 3K3 resistor must be connected between the
zone input and ground.
