Sensor IQ Installation Manual
Connect and Configure Emergency Contact
The Sensor IQ Breaker Panel can connect to an external emergency circuit. Emergency can be triggered
by a maintained contact input that can be configured as normally open or normally closed. The breaker
panel also has an op24 VDC (maximum 25 mA) Emergency Out that provides a feed to a lamp
or LED, indicating emergency activity.
Connect Emergency Input
1:
Pull two 1.5 mm
2
(16 AWG) wires from your Emergency contact location to the Sensor IQ
Breaker Panel through conduit. See
Cable Routing and Conduit Access
2:
Strip 5 mm (3/16 in) of insulation from the ends of each wire.
3:
Remove the two-pin Emergency Input connector from J13 on the termination I/O board.
4:
Loosen the terminal screws.
5:
While maintaining the wire twist as close to the connection as possible, insert each wire into the
terminals on the connector.
6:
Tighten the screws firmly to secure the wires into the connector.
7:
Replace the connector to the termination board.
Determine Emergency Switching
1:
Set the Emergency switch, S3 on the termination I/O board, to indicate the Emergency Input
contact closure type: Normally Closed Closure (N/C), Off, or Normally Open Closure (N/O).
Connect Emergency Output (Optional)
1:
Pull two 1.5 mm
2
(16 AWG) wires from your external emergency indication lamp to the Sensor
IQ Breaker Panel through conduit. See
Cable Routing and Conduit Access
2:
Strip 5 mm (3/16 in) of insulation from the ends of each wire.
3:
Remove the two-pin Emergency Output connector from J16 on the termination I/O board.
4:
Loosen the terminal screws.
5:
Insert the negative wire into pin 1 and insert the positive wire (which carries 24 VDC, maximum
current draw of 25 mA, to the lamp) into pin 2 of the terminals on the connector.
6:
Tighten the screws firmly to secure the wires into the connector.
7:
Replace the connector to the termination board.
Connect EchoConnect
EchoConnect is the communication bus that connects the
Sensor IQ Breaker Panel to other Echo native products for
configuration of presets, sequences, and level control between
devices such as the Echo Preset Stations.
Using Belden 8471
Termination is available for up to four separate EchoConnect data runs and is topology-free.
EchoConnect includes one pair of wires (data + and data -) plus a separate ESD ground wire. The total
combined length of a EchoConnect wire run cannot exceed 500 m (1,640 ft), with a maximum
distance of 400 m (1,313 ft) between any two devices.
For systems utilizing Echo Preset stations, ETC recommends terminating the station data run to the
Echo host product with the station power supply enabled.
