Commercial Burglary and Home Navigator System
Installing the System
q
Connecting speakers (p. 11).
q
Connecting sirens (p. 12).
q
Installing an RJ-31X Phone Jack (p. 12).
q
Connecting the phone line to the panel with a DB-8 cord
(p. 13).
q
Mounting/connecting an AC power transformer (p. 13).
q
Installing the backup battery(s) (p. 14).
q
Powering up the panel (p. 14).
Determining the Panel Location
Before permanently mounting the panel, determine the
panel location using the following guidelines:
q
Centrally locate the panel in relation to detection
devices whenever possible to help reduce wire run
lengths and labor.
q
Avoid running wires parallel with electrical wiring, or
fixtures such as fluorescent lighting, to prevent wire
runs from picking up electrical noise.
q
Locate the panel where the temperature will not exceed
120°F (49°C) or fall below 32°F (0°C).
q
If optional wireless transceiver module is used, avoid
locations near excessive metal such as HVAC ducts, foil
wallpaper, gas/water pipes, and electrical wiring.
q
Mount the panel at a comfortable working height (about
45 to 55 inches from the floor to the bottom of the panel,
as shown in Figure 2).
q
Allow 6.5-inches to the right (or left) of the panel for
wiring, phone jack, and optional module mounting.
q
Allow at least 24-inches in front of the panel for access to
panel components.
Figure 2. Determining Panel Location
Running Wires to the Panel Location
Once you have determined the best possible panel location,
run any necessary wires for the:
q
power transformer,
q
phone line(s),
q
sirens/speakers,
q
SuperBus 2000 alphanumeric touchpads,
q
hardwired zones,
q
output devices,
q
Optional SuperBus 2000 modules (such as Dual Phone
Line, Printer Modules, etc.).
System Wire Lengths
The total system wire length allowed can vary depending on
devices powered by the panel, the wire length between
devices and the panel, and the combined wire length of all
devices.
q
Table 9 describes wiring recommendations for various
panel components.
For devices where no recommended wire lengths are
stated, or several devices share the same wire runs to the
panel, please see Table A2 on page 57 to determine
wire lengths based on current draw and resistance.
q
Use 18-gauge wire for all commercial installations.
q
Listed auxiliary power supplies may be used to reach
the 4000ft maximum wire length for SuperBus modules.
Please see Table A2 on page 57 to determine wire
lengths based on the module(s) used.
