Connection terminals
The screw terminals for the alarm inputs are suitable for use with a standard 3mm
blade terminal screwdriver.
Power connections
Power to the unit is via 2 screw terminals at the centre, with positive to the right nearest Pin 9.
The supply voltage range is 9V to 30V. The unit is designed to be connected to the auxiliary
power output on an associated alarm panel, or separate powered enclosure. For use with
intruder alarm panels the power supply must meet the requirements of EN 50131-6.
For use with Fire alarm panels the signalling unit must be powered from a supply meeting
the requirements of EN 54-4. Ensure the power source is sufficient to power all devices
connected. See the power requirements in the specification section for more information.
The account at the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) should be put ‘on test’ before power up,
as signals will be sent following initialisation.
Alarm inputs
The unit has 16 alarm inputs which are presented on screw terminals along the bottom
of the unit. These are labelled as Pin 1–8 and 9–16.
By default the 16 alarm inputs require a positive condition to be presented to send an
alarm. (Default = Positive applied). This can be changed using the Pin Learn button or
through the configuration menu. See later section on Configuration.
