ADEMCO 216-12 - User Manual

for Digital Remote Stations with Panic Circuitry
Single LED indication with No. 21542 Remote Station(s)
Or
Two LED indication with No. 5212 Remote Station(s)
GENERAL INFORMATION:
This No. 21612 Adapter, when used with No. 21512 or 5212 Digital Keypad Remote Station(s), permits coded
pushbutton ON/OFF (ARM/DISARM) control of 12V alarm panels such as the Nos. 102%12,102312,102512 and
1026EX12 Alarm Processing Centers and Nos. 406612,406OEU and 4090 LogiCenters.
The No. 21512 Remote Station. provides single LED indication of the status of the control’s burglar alam\ circuit.
Only two wires are required to connect up to four stations to the control.
The No. 5212 Remote Station provides two LED indication (a third LED on the station is for another application)
and requires tour wires for connection of up to four stations.
The No. 21512 Adapter is shipped connected for QUICK ARM single digit arming and four digit disarming. Full 4
digit arming may be selected by cutting the GREEN jumper on the No. 21512 (See WIRING Step 3~).
Nos. 2l512 AND 5212 Digital Remote Stations are for INDOOR use only.
DESCRIPTION:
A twelve pushbutton keypad on each remote station enables the user to arm or disarm the control or initiate a
panic alarm at any time. Status of the control’s burglar alarm circuit(s) (such as: “not ready for arming”, “alarm
memory “, “ready for arming”, or “armed”) is indicated by a single RED LED on each No. 21512 and by RED and
GREEN LEDs on each No. 5212 used. An audible warning indicator is built into each remote station for use with
the control’s entry/exit delay circuit and other system warning sounds as the control or its other accessories
may provide (see instructions accompanying those units.)
If desired, momentary type normally open emergency (panic) switches (e.g.: No. 219) may be connected across
the remote stations’ YELLOW AND RED leads instead of switches separately wired to the panel unless the
remote stations’ panic alarm feature is not to be connected. (See INSTALLATION AND WIRING Section.)
A “SILENT PANIC ALARM” connection option can be used, which utilizes the No. 21612’s panic circuitry to trip
a digital communicator (e.g.: No. 669,676 or 693) or dialer (e.g.: No. 612). A silent alarm can then be transmitted
to a remote location when the appropriate pair of buttons on a No. 21512 or 5212 Remote Station (or a panic
switch connected to its circuit) is pressed. The special connections required are incorporated in the INSTALLA-
TION AND WIRING Section herein.
The No. 21512 Adapter’s housing is designed to clip into the cabinet of the alarm control with which it is used.
It contains a PC board which includes:
a) Leads for alann control connections, b) “Digit Wires” and “Code Pins” for programming the 4 digit code,
c) Jumpers for cutting or positioning as required, and d) Terminals for “Panic Reset” and remote station con-
nections.
No tamper switches are needed in the remote stations as the system is inherently secure. A full four digit code
is required to d&am\ the system and that code cannot be determined at any remote station.
Notes: A. Only No. 21512 or No. 6212 Remote Stations (up to 4) may be used with the No. 21512 Adapter.
6. Circuit safeguards will prevent arming or disamring by erasing all prior information entered via the
keypad if: a) an erroneous digit is entered or, b) more than approximately 3 seconds are taken to.
enter the code.
C. Other remote stations (e.g.: Up to 4 Nos. 246,246R or 5246) may be simultaneously, but independent-
ly, connected directly to No. 40&12,4080EU and 4096 LogiCenters.
