Addressable Devices
The following addressable devices are available:
AMS-220/220T smoke detector with optional tempera-
ture sensor*
AMB-300 PIR detector
AMB-500 ceiling PIR detector
AMB-600 dual PIR detector
AMA-100 glass break detector
AMP-700 magnetic door/window contact
AMP-701 contact input module
AMP-702 fire alarm contact input module
AMX-400 repeater/isolator module
AML-770 isolator module
*Fire alarm devices cannot be placed on the same loop as
burglary devices.
Addressable Loop Response Time
The overall system response time for devices on the AML
loop depends on how many devices are on each loop.
The response times below include three factors:
input debounce time
addressable reporting and confirmation time
processing time required by the panel to activate the
output
Response Time (seconds)
Response Time = 1.348 + (0.036 x # of zones)
Use this formula on the PGM with the greater number of
zones to find the loop response for both PGMs.
Addressable Loop Current Calculation
Each addressable multiplex loop can draw a maximum
of 170mA of current from the main panel. In order to
determine the amount of current required for the AML
loop, complete the following chart:
When more AML devices are added to a single loop, the
current draw increases. The loop wire length must be
limited to the following distances depending on the total
loop curent:
Addressable Loop Wiring
AML devices can be
home-run, connected in a
daisy chain, or T-tapped.
Wire the AML loop
according to the follow-
ing diagram:
This configuration is
only used for AML
devices. Please see the Installation Instructions provided
with each device for more information regarding opera-
tion and wiring.
For longer wire
runs, you can split
the addressable
devices onto two
or more loops
from the COM
and PGM termi-
nals. For example,
32 AMB-300 detectors (2.5mA each) take 80mA total. In
one 18AWG wire run, this would allow a maximum length
of 720 feet (220 m). If you split the 32 devices into two wire
runs of 16 detectors each, using 18AWG wire, each wire
run could be 1736 feet (529 m) long. See the diagram above.
NOTE: No end-of-line resistors are required when
installing these devices.
NOTE: Once the devices are connected, the PGM termi-
nal must be configured for AML operation and each
device must be enrolled. See Section 4.4 ’Enrolling AML
Devices’ for instructions.
NOTE: Do not use shielded wire runs in parallel with
each other. Do not run either AML wire run in parallel
with the Combus. Maintain minimum 2” separation
between all AML wiring and Combus wiring.
2.10 Wiring Powered Devices (AUX, SAUX+)
AUX – Auxiliary Power
These terminals can be used to power motion detectors,
glass break detectors and other devices requiring power.
The AUX (positive) and GND (negative) terminals can
provide up to 500mA of current.
SAUX+ – Switched Auxiliary Power
This terminal provides positive power (12VDC) and can be
de-energized via the [*][7][2] keypad command (provided
that the output is programmed as Command Output #2).
