GardTec 872
System Overview
Zone Expansion
An expansion path is available through zone expander boards. Each expander board
being programmable for 4 x four wire zones, 8 x two wire zones or 8x two wire EOL
zones. Up to sixteen expander boards may be fitted to a GardTec
872 giving a total of
144 zones when configured as 2 wire or 2 wire EOL zones. Each expander board and
the control panel zones may use differing wiring configurations. If required up to two
radio modules that are compatible with Rokonet radio equipment may be fitted
Expander cards may be fitted in locations away from the master control panel.
More details of zone options are given in the relevant sections in this manual.
ID Zone Expansion
As an alternative to ZEX expansion up to two ID expander boards may be fitted. Each
ID expander board will accept up to 30 standard ID biscuits/devices. ID biscuits may
be used with all standard detection devices. This system allows either single leg or ring
wiring using standard alarm cable, detectors may, if required be ‘teed’ of the leg or
ring. This expansion method can offer considerable savings of cable and labour
One ID expander card may be plugged on to the control panel PCB (not with onboard
RKP) with the other remote. Alternatively both ID expander may be mounted remote
from the control panel. If this method of expansion is used standard zone expanders or
radio modules cannot be used.
Zone Descriptions
Up to sixteen characters may be used for zone descriptions on the LCD keypad. The
description that you allocate to a zone will also be applied to the tamper of that zone. If
the cause of an alarm is through a zone tamper the description will be shortened to 13
characters on the display, the last three characters being replaced with <space>T!
The zone descriptor is displayed whilst viewing the cause of an alarm, viewing the log,
if a zone is violated during exit and when programming zone descriptors. While viewing
the zone in the log press 5 to display the zone number.
User Names
Each user (with the exception of the engineer) may be allocated a user name of up to
nine characters. This name will be shown if the system is being set with a master or
main code type and whilst viewing the log.
