Inputs
6.1
Zones
The Controller has 16 zone inputs. The Controller also monitors 64 trouble zones used to report trouble
conditions. A trouble zone represents a trouble condition within the system. The trouble zone will open or go in
to alarm when that trouble condition is present, and close or return to normal when the trouble condition
restores. As an example, trouble zone CP001:01 will open or go in to alarm when the tamper input on the
Controller is open.
The Controller can monitor and control thousands of zone and trouble zone inputs by using the expansion
modules.
The Controller can monitor the state of up to 16 zone inputs such as magnetic contacts, motion detectors and
temperature sensors. Devices connected to these zones can be installed to a maximum distance of 300m
(1000ft) from the Controller when using 22 AWG. The Controller supports normally opened and normally closed
configurations with or without EOL resistors.
UL
ULC
Magnetic contacts shall be listed to UL 634 to comply with UL installation standards and
ULC/ORD-C634 to comply with ULC installation standards.
Motion detectors and temperature sensors shall be listed to UL 639 to comply with UL installation
standards and ULC-S306 to comply with ULC installation standards.
The PRT-CTRL-SE has been evaluated for UL 294, UL 1610, UL 1635, CAN/ULC-S304,
CAN/ULC-S319 and CAN/ULC-S559.
Zones can be programmed from the Protege Alphanumeric LCD Keypad (PRT-KLCD) or using the Protege
System Management Suite application (PRT-SMGT). CP001:01 to CP001:16 represent zone 1 to zone 16 on
the Controller.
When using a zone with the EOL resistor configuration, the Controller generates an alarm condition when the
state of a zone is toggled and generates a tamper alarm condition when a wire fault (short circuit) or a cut
(tampered) in the line occurs.
Zones default to require the EOL resistor configuration.

The zones 9-12 and 13-16 can operate as either general purpose zone inputs or as onboard reader
inputs. If used as general purpose zone inputs then make sure that these inputs are not defined in the
onboard reader set up.
