Group linking via the Keypad “bus”
The keypad terminals on all Energizers in the group are linked. Since only one
Energizer needs to power the keypad, 3 wires are linked from one Energizer
(preferably the Master) to the keypad (optional) and 2 wires to every other Energizer
in the group. Do not connect the + lines between Energizers as this could result in
some strange behaviour and possibly damage. Note the connections can be a star
or daisy chain or any mixture. It is possible for a PC to be added to the group using a
keypad to RS232 adaptor (PAE051).
We recommend following these steps in the right order:
a. Disarm all energizers in the group. If energizers are not disarmed Step 10 may not
work correctly.
b. Program the keypad address using one of the energizers.
c. Program each energizer with its required address (Master address=1, Slave 1
address=2...). Refer to note 4 below.
d. Connect any control/monitoring unit 12V, GND and Data to the Group Master
e. Connect all the slaves Data and GND to the Group Master.
f. Connect the battery and AC power of the Group Master but do not arm.
g. Connect the battery and AC power of each slave Note: Do not arm them until all
the Energizers in the group are connected
h. Wait 5 minutes for all the Energizers to synchronize with the Master
i. If there are more than one keypad or control unit, make sure they have a different
ID then reset the group using keypad code: [user pin] [*] [6] [8] [#] or Perimeter
Patrol “Reset All” this will allow both keypads to be recognized by all energizers in
the group.
j. If using a PTE0210 keypad, enter the key sequence [*][6][8][#] to automatically
re-scan the group and check what energizers are connected.
k. Arm the group using keypad [1] [2] [3] [4] [*] [1] [0] [#] or Perimeter Patrol, make
sure all Energizers are activated.
Notes
:
1. Members of a group can be individually switched on and off; even the master can
be turned off via input or key switch (note that the Z114R does not have a key
switch).
2. A slave will generate a General alarm if the keypad bus is broken between it and
the group master.
3. After programming the Keypad may be disconnected, it is not required for group
operation.
4. As of energizer firmware 7v83 and keypad firmware 1v09, Z28’s should have an
‘empty’ ID between each Energizer. This means if the Z28 master ID=1, then the
ID of the first slave should be 3, not 2.
