Description
The Quik Bridge® Output Module combined with the NX
wireless receiver allows 8 wireless transmitters to be used on
the wired inputs of a control panel. It can be programmed to
reflect either the state of an individual transmitter or a selection
of transmitters. The Quik Bridge® also has 8 LEDs that display
the current state of a programmed output.
The Quik Bridge® features the following:
•
8 programmable zone outputs (N/C or N/O). These can
show tamper indication for all zones, receiver
communication trouble/ jam for the NX Receiver and box
tamper for the NX Receiver or Quik Bridge® output
module.
•
8 zone LEDs, which indicate zone openings and closings.
•
NX bus to connect the Quik Bridge® with the NX Receiver
and with the NX-148 LCD Keypad. The LCD keypad is
temporarily used for programming purposes, and can be
disconnected after completion of the Quik Bridge®
programming. The control panel can provide power to the
Quik Bridge®. Do NOT wire the DATA line back to the
control panel as this might damage your control panel.
•
2 trouble LEDs, which indicate sensor low battery,
supervisory conditions, tamper-trouble conditions and a
power LED to indicate power going to the Quik Bridge®.
•
On-board EEPROM that stores sensor IDs and
programming information in non-volatile memory, if power
is removed.
Transmitter Capability
All current Learn Mode™ transmitters (868.6 MHz and
433 MHz).
Control Panel Compatibility
The Quik Bridge® is compatible with control panels designed
with hardwire loops where the loop negative is ground,
otherwise known as a common-loop ground.
The loop receiver is not directly compatible with powered loops
(2-wire smoke detector loops and glass break detector loops).
If the loop on the control panel can power a device, it must not
be connected directly to the loop receiver. Instead, a relay is
required when connecting to powered loops.
Compatibility Testing
Typically, hardwire loops have the negative (-) side of the loop
common with the ground. If this is true and the loop is non-
powered, the loop should be compatible with the receiver.
Although most control panels are compatible with the receiver
open collector outputs, each loop should be tested for
compatibility before connecting Quik Bridge® outputs to the
control panel loop inputs. If the Quik Bridge® is not directly
compatible with a control panel loop, a relay can be used to
establish compatibility.
To check if the negative side of the loop is common to the
control panel ground, perform the following test:
1. Turn off or remove the control panel power and disconnect
the back-up battery.
2. Use an Ohm meter and measure the resistance between
the negative side of the loop and panel ground. If the
resistance is zero or close to zero, this loop should be
compatible with the loop receiver. If the resistance is not
zero, a relay is required for this loop.
Perform this compatibility test for all loops that are to be
connected to the Quik Bridge.
