Telephone Line Connections
The Magellan console can be connected to a telephone line by
connecting the telephone company’s wires directly to Magellan’s
dialer or by connecting a standard 4-pin RJ-11 cable between the
LINE
plug of the console to a standard telephone wall jack.
Direct Connect
Connect the telephone line through a RJ31X jack as shown in
Figure 5 on page 8.
Figure 5: Telephone Line Direct Connect
For UL compliant installations, the Magellan console must
be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in a non-
medical emergency situation. It must be able to do this
even if other equipment (telephones, answering machines,
computer modems, etc.) already has the line in use. To do
so, the Magellan console must be connected to a properly
installed RJ31X jack that is in series with and ahead of all
other equipment attached to the same telephone line.
Proper installation is depicted in the diagram below. If you
have any questions concerning these instructions, you
should consult your telephone company about installing
the RJ31X jack and the Magellan console for you.
Line Plug Connect
The Magellan console can also be connected to a telephone line
via its on-board
LINE
plug. See Figure 6 on page 8 for more
information on connecting the telephone line using this method.
When connecting via the
LINE
plug, if the telephone line is
shared and it is busy (i.e. someone is talking on the
telephone) the console will be unable to communicate with
the Monitoring Station. It is recommended that the Direct
Connect method (see page 8) be used to connect the
telephone line.

Programmable Outputs (PGMs)
Magellan comes equipped with one 100mA solid-state PGM
output and one low powered open-collector; Max. handling
current 50mA. When a specific event occurs in the system, a
PGM can be programmed to activate lights, garage door
openers, etc. See Programmable Outputs on page 34 for more
information on programming PGMs.
Connect Magellan’s PGM outputs as shown in Method 1 in
Figure 7 on page 9. Since Magellan does not come with a power
supply, an external power supply must be employed to power the
circuit. The PGM outputs can be either Normally Open (N.O.) or
Insert the device’s wires into the
AUX
AND
C terminals.
