Capacitance Limits
An increase in capacitance on the Corbus affects data transmission and
causes the system to slow down. Capacitance increases for every foot of
wire added to the Corbus. The capacitance rating of the wire used will
determine the maximum length of the Corbus.

AC (International Installations)
Primary: 220V-240Vac, 50/60Hz, 200mA
Secondary: 16.5VAC/40VA
Warning: Do not connect the battery or transformer until all other
wiring is complete.
Batteries
Connect the RED battery lead to the positive battery terminal and the
BLACK battery lead to the negative battery terminal.
Note: Refer to "Aux Loading and Battery Selection" on page 21.
Additional Wiring
Zone Wiring
Power down the alarm controller and complete all zone wiring.
Zones can be wired to supervise normally open devices (e.g., smoke
detectors) or normally closed devices (e.g., door contacts). The alarm panel
can also be programmed for single end-of-line or double end-of-line
resistors.
Zone programming is done using the following programming sections:
l [001] selects zone definition
l [013] Opt [1] for normally closed or EOL; Opt [2] for SEOL or
DEOL
l [201 - 208] partition assignment.
Observe the following guidelines when wiring zones:
l For UL listed installations use SEOL or DEOL only
l Minimum 22 AWG wire, maximum 18 AWG
l Do not use shielded wire
l
Do not exceed 100Ω wire resistance. Refer to the following table:
Table 1-4 Burglary Zone Wiring Chart
Wire Gauge Maximum Length to EOL Resistor (ft/-
meters)
22 3000 / 914
20 4900 / 1493
19 6200 / 1889
18 7800 / 2377
Figures are based on maximum wiring resistance of 100Ω.
Aux Power Wiring
These terminals provide 11.3-12.5VDC/700mA of current (shared with
PGM outputs). Connect the positive side of any device to the AUX+
terminal, the negative side to GND. The AUX output is protected; if too
much current is drawn from these terminals (wiring short) the output is
temporarily shut off until the problem is corrected.
Note: If using a 12V, 14Ah battery, maximum AUX capacity for 24-hour
standby is 470mA.
PGM Wiring
Min/max operating voltages for devices, sensors and modules is 9.5VDC
- 14VDC.
PGMs switch to ground when activated from the alarm controller. Connect
the positive side of the device to the AUX+ terminal and the negative side
to a PGM terminal.
PGM 1, 3, 4 supply up to 50mA; PGM 2 supplies up to 300mA.
A relay is required for current levels greater than 50mA or 300mA. PGM2
can also be used for 2-wire smoke detectors, 24-hr burglary input alarm.
Note: Use SEOL resistors on Fire zones only.

Optional Relay Driver Output.
Single End-of-Line (SEOL) Resistor
When SEOL resistors are installed at the end of a zone loop, the alarm
panel detects if the circuit is secure, open, or shorted. The SEOL resistor
must be installed at the end of the loop for proper supervision.
To enable SEOL supervision, program section [013], options [1] and [2]
to OFF.
Note: This option should be selected if either normally closed or normally
open detection devices or contacts are used.
