Installation Checklist
Refer to the Hardware Description section of this guide for installation, setup, and operating information.
SCS-1R Faceplate
To lower the SCS-1R faceplate, turn the two screws located in the top corners of the SCS-1R. The front of the
SCS-1R opens on a hinge to allow access to the inside of the SCS-1R. Close the SCS-1R system by raising the front
of the SCS-1R and securing the two screws in the top corners.
Earth Ground
Connect the ground lug on the modem rack rear side to earth ground. Using a minimum of 14 gauge wire, ground
to a cold water pipe, building ground, or a ground rod. Do not ground to electrical conduit or telephone company
ground.
Location of Circuit Boards
Confirm the circuit boards in the modem rack and in the multibus rack are installed properly and are in their
proper locations. The circuit boards are properly installed when completely seated into the connector on the rack
backplane. Connect all line card and any network interface card flat cables to the SCS-1062 Processor Card ports.
SCS-208 Power Cord
Connect the SCS-208 Power Cord from the SCS-120 Multibus Power Supply card to the SCS-130 Transformer Card.
Phone Lines
Connect the RJ11X cables provided with each line card to the phone lines used for receiving
alarms. The included phone cables are crossover cables. When you hold the two connectors of
one cable side by side the wire colors should be mirror images, as shown in the diagram.
Network Connection
When using a network interface card, connect the SCS-101 network cable to the data network.
Refer to the Hardware Description and Appendix for SCS-101 network installation instructions.
AC Power
Plug the AC power cord of the receiver into a 120 VAC, 60Hz outlet not controlled by a switch . Do not apply
AC power yet. For listed operation, use a listed uninterrupted power supply (UPS). The UPS system must have a
secondary power source (batteries) and provide alarm contacts to indicate when the UPS switches from primary
power to secondary power. The SCS-1R Receiver requires a UPS that delivers at least 400 VA power operating at
60Hz.
Optional Printer
Connect the RS-232 printer cable. Install paper, connect the printer to AC power, and turn on the printer power
switch.
Note: UL central station applications must use a serial printer that is listed for Fire Protective Signaling
Systems.
Start up
Apply 120 VAC to the AC power cord. The 120 volts supplied to the SCS-1R Receiver and the printer must be from
the same UPS circuit.
Configuration
After powering up the system, set the correct time, configure the phone lines and network communications, and
enter the operator codes. Refer to the Operator’s Guide section of this guide for instructions on completing these
tasks.
Note:
Be sure that the Membrane Keypad is set to Address 01 (one). Refer to
LCD Membrane Keypad Configuration
for complete information.
