UL COMPLIANCE VERIFICATION
FOR BHS-2000A ALARM CONTROL PANEL
Follow the instructions below when installing and programming a BHS-2000A Alarm Control Etael to
meet installation requirements for UL 985, 1023, and 1635.
HARDWARE CONSIDERATIONS
1. Do not plug the Bassler transformer (BE116225AA=25VA, BE114620CAA = 20VA) into a receptacle cdhtrolled by
a switch.
2. Use a 12 volt minimum 4 AH battery (Yuasa NP4-12) in order to have a standby time of at least 4 hours.
3. Use a U.L. listed speaker across terminals 5 and 6. Do not use speaker loads of less than 4 ohms.
Supplementary speakers: Premier PTS-15, Ultrak DS-2.
4. Maximum combined Auxiliary, keypad, and Fire current is 330 mA at 12.5 VDC with a 20VA transformer.
500 mA with a 25 VA transformer.
5. Maximum current draw for the Bell output must not fexceed .5 Amps using d 25 VA transformer and .4
Amps using a 20 VA transformer. Either bell of Siren should be used as the primary sounding output.
6. Use UL listed 4-wire smoke detectors and UL listed end-of-line relay modules.
7. Use P/N EOL4700 end-of-line module (sold separately) for all fire zones, and Scantronic (P/N 122-000472
(enclosed ) for all burglary type zones of protection.
8. Keypads must be installed within the protected area.
9. A UL listed tamper switch must be installed on the control panel cabinet.
PROGRAMMING CONSIDERATIONS
1. Maximum Exit time allowed is 60 seconds.
2. Maximum Entry time allowed is 45 seconds.
3. Program the panel to report to the Central Station on loss of AC power and Low battery.
4. Program all burglary sounding devices to operate for a minimum of 4 minutes.
5. "No E.O.L.R" resistor mode must not be enabled to meet UL Grade A requirements. EOLR's must be used on
all zones.
6. Program manual shut down for the fire alarm time out.
7. Dialing attempts for phone 1 & 2 must be a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 10 attempts.
8. Test message interval must be programmed to 1 every 24 hours.
9. False alarm prevention must be disable (load shed).
10. For UL applications, the system must be programmed so that the master code can not be altered by the user form
the keypad (Location 156, master code reprogrammabilty).
11. Program the panel to report all Fire zone Trouble conditions to the Central Station.
12. 24 hour fire zones cannot be programmed as bypassable zones.
13. For correct dialer report prioritizaiton, Fire zones are to be assigned to the lower numbered zones, Panics on the
next lowest numbed zones and burglary zones on the highest numbers. Example: Zone 1 = Fire Zone 2 = Panic, Zone
3-8= Burglary.
14. Maximum dialer delay time is 45 seconds.
C.S.F.M, COMPLIANCE VERIFICATION
For C.S.F.M. residential fire installations, a Power-Sonic 12V 8AH battery (Model PS-1282L) must be used in order to
achieve a battery back up time of 24 hours. Maximum current draw for the Auxiliary and Bell outputs are as follows:
Auxiliary, Fire, and Keypad = 182 mA
Bell output = 1 amp.
Siren output = 4 ohms maximum.
Note : Either bell or siren output should be used as the primary sounding output.
