SA-232 wiring
The SA-232 card provides an RS-232 in-
terface with VS panels. It can be used for
connecting a printer to the control panel
to print system events. The card also
can be used for connecting a computer
to download a configuration program
from the VS-CU to the control panel.
The RS-232 card is installed on the plas-
tic assembly and connects to the main circuit board via a ribbon
cable.

SA-DACT Dialer
The SA-DACT provides communications between the control
panel and the central station over a telephone line system. It
transmits system status changes (events) to a compatible digital
alarm communicator receiver over the public switched telephone
network. The dialer is capable of single, dual, or split reporting
of events to two different account and telephone numbers. The
modem feature of the SA-DACT can also be used for uploading
and downloading panel configuration, history, and current status
to a PC running the VS-CU.

wiring
The dialer phone lines connect to
connectors on the dialer’s main
circuit board. Phone line 1 connects
to connector J4 and phone line 2
connects to connector J1.
The SA-DACT queues mes-
sages and transmits them based on priority (alarm, supervisory,
trouble, and monitor). Activations are transmitted before restora-
tions.
The SA-DACT is installed on the plastic assembly and connects to
the main circuit board via a ribbon cable.

SA-CLA Class A Module (VS1 only)
The SA-CLA card provides Class A capability for NAC wiring.
Its terminal block provides the wiring connection for NAC return
wiring. The card is required for annunciator Class A wiring even
though this wiring does not return to the SA-CLA card. The SA-
CLA is compatible with VS1 control panels only. VS4 panels are
Class A Ready. The SA-CLA is installed directly to the control
panel circuit board using its plastic standoffs and plug connection.
