AL1024NK8QP Series Installation Guide
Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, the Canadian
Electrical Code and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Product is intended for indoor use only.
1. Mount unit in desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top two keyholes in
the enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the
enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two upper screws, level and secure. Mark the position of the lower two
holes. Remove the enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the two fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper
keyholes over the two upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws
(Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 8)
. Secure enclosure to earth ground.
2. Ensure all output switches [INP1] - [INP8] are placed in the OFF (center) position
(Fig. 1, pg. 3)
.
3. Connect unswitched AC power (115VAC 60Hz) to terminals marked [L, N]
(Fig. 2a, pg. 5)
. Green “AC” LED on power supply board will turn on. This light
can be seen through the LED lens on the door of the enclosure. Use 14 AWG or
larger for all power connections. Secure green wire lead to earth ground.
Keep power-limited wiring separate from non power-limited wiring
(115VAC 60Hz Input, Battery Wires). Minimum 0.25” spacing must be provided.
CAUTION: Do not touch exposed metal parts. Shut branch circuit power before
installing or servicing equipment. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel.
4. Set each output [OUT1] - [OUT8] to route power from Input 1 or 2
(Fig. 1, pg. 3)
.
Note:
Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
5. Turn power off before connecting devices.
6.
Output Connections:
Connect devices to be powered to the terminals marked [– OUT1 +] to [– OUT8 +]
on LINQ8PD(CB) carefully observing polarity.
8.
Stand-by Battery Connections
(Fig. 4, pg. 8)
:
For U.S. Access Control applications batteries are optional. Batteries are required for Canadian installations
(ULC-S319). When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage. When the
use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type.
Power supply’s battery charging circuit is factory connected to the terminals marked [+ BAT IN –].
Connect the battery leads to the terminals marked [+ BAT OUT –] on LINQ8PD(CB)
(Fig. 3, pg. 7)
. Use
two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation (battery leads included). Use batteries -
Casil CL1270 (12V/7AH), CL12120 (12V/12AH), CL12400 (12V/40AH), CL12650 (12V/65AH) batteries
or UL recognized BAZR2 and BAZR8 batteries of an appropriate rating.
9. To delay reporting for up to 6 hrs., cut “AC Delay” jumper and reset power to unit
(Fig. 2f, pg. 5)
.
10.
LINQ8PD(CB) Fire Alarm Interface options:
(not evaluated by UL).
The Fire Alarm Interface and Reset options are programmable via the web interface.
FAI input trigger options: supervised normally closed [NC], normally open [NO], polarity reversal input
from signaling circuit or wet input will trigger selected outputs.
(a) Normally Open [NO] input:
Connect the supplied 2.2k resistor in parallel with the normally open
trigger circuit to the terminals marked [GND], [FACP EOL].
(b) Normally Closed [NC] input:
Connect the supplied 2.2k resistor in series with the normally closed
trigger circuit to the terminals marked [GND], [FACP EOL].
(c) Signaling Circuit/Wet input trigger:
Connect the positive (+) and negative (–) of the signaling circuit/
wet input trigger to the terminals marked [FACP IN +] and [FACP IN –].
(d) Fire Alarm Reset:
If a output is programmed to latch with manual reset, connect either a normally open
(N.O.) or normally closed (N.C.) dry input to the terminals marked [RESET] and [GND].
When daisy-chaining fire alarm signals, connect [FACR RLY1] and [FACP RLY2] on the first
LINQ8PD(CB) to [GND] and [FACP EOL] of the next board and slide EOL switch to OFF. If dry contact
is used, slide EOL switch to ON.
12. Turn main power on after all devices are connected.
13.
Installation of tamper switch:
Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Altronix model TS112 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the
tamper switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side
(Fig. 4a, pg. 8)
.
Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed reporting
device. To activate alarm signal open the door of the enclosure.
