General Information
ControlKeeper 4
5. When powering peripheral devices such as motion
sensors and photosensors from the ControlKeeper
4 panel, there may be a limitation on the number of
sensors that can be supported. This is also true if
Digital Switches are used with the system. See the
recommendations below or contact Cooper Controls for
further information.
6. It is recommended that the terminal blocks be removed
from the board or power removed from the logic board
when doing initial switch input wiring.
Contact Input Switch Wiring
This section describes the wiring for dry contact closure
devices. There are four switch input wiring terminals on the
left side of the ControlKeeper 4 to allow for wiring of the
dry contact closure devices.
1. Use 18 AWG twisted, unshielded wire for all low
voltage dry contact closure device wiring.
2. Maximum length for dry contact closure device wiring
is 1000 feet.
3. Please see wiring detail below for details on
connections of different devices to the
ControlKeeper 4 system.

Sensor Note
It is possible to use a contact input photosensor and
Greengate Motion Sensors in conjunction with the lighting
control system. The ControlKeeper 4 is capable of powering
a number of these devices. Please refer to the chart below
for details on how many devices the transformer can
support.

Please contact technical support if it is necessary to power
additional sensors beyond the numbers listed above. These
figures do not account for additional devices such as Digital
Switches being used. If using a combination of devices,
please contact technical support for exact details on how
many devices the logic panel can power.

Figure 8. Photosensor and Motion Sensor Wiring
Digital Switch Wiring
Each ControlKeeper 4 panel is capable of supporting up to 7
Digital Switch device stations and 1 GDS-I gateway device
(the number the controller is able to support is dependent
on the number of other low voltage devices wired that
require power from our logic board. Please contact Technical
Support for exact details of how many devices your logic
board can power.)
Digital Switch cable type should be Eaton’s Cooper LC
Cable, Belden 1502R (non-plenum), or Belden 1502P
(plenum).
For best network performance, one of the suggested cables
should be used. If the specified cable is not used
and communications problems occur that require
troubleshooting assistance, additional charges for support
may be assessed.
Digital Switches do not wire directly to the ControlKeeper 4
panel, but are wired to a CAN Bus network that connects to
the ControlKeeper 4 through a GDS-I device. Digital Switch
devices should be networked together in a daisy-chain
