1.1 Keybus Wiring
The 4-wire KEYBUS (red, black, yellow and green) is the communication connection between the control panel and all modules. The 4 KEY-
BUS terminals of all modules must be connected to the 4 KEYBUS terminals of the main control panel.
The following rules must be followed when wiring the Keybus:
• Minimum 22 AWG wire, maximum 18 AWG (2-wire twisted preferred
•Do NOT use shielded wire
• Modules can be home run, connected in series or can be T-tapped pro-
vided that the maximum wire distance from the control panel to any mod-
ule does not exceed 305m
• No more than 915m of wire can be used in total
1.2 Zone Wiring
Zones can be wired for Normally Open, Normally Closed Contacts with Sin-
gle-end-of-line (SEOL) resistors or Double End-of-Line (DEOL) resistors.
Observe the following guidelines:
• Minimum 22 AWG wire, maximum 18 AWG
•Do NOT use shielded wire
• Wire run resistance shall not exceed 100. Refer to the chart:
• Section [001-004] selects Zone Definition
• Section [013] Opt [1] selects Normally Closed or EOL resistors
• Section [013] Opt [2] selects Single EOL or Double EOL resistors
• Section [101]-[108] Opt [14], [15], [16] selects Normally Closed Single
EOL or Double EOL for on-board zones (Zone 1-8)
Zone Status - Loop Resistance/Loop Status
• Fault - 0 (shorted wire/loop)
• Secure - 5600 (contact closed)
• Tamper - infinite (broken wire, open)
• Violated - 11,200 (contact open)
1.3 Zone Expanders
Zone expanders add zones in groups
of eight to the Alarm system. Mod-
ule jumpers J1, J2, J3 are required to
assign zones to these modules.
Jumper settings for PC5108 v2 are
shown here.
• PC5108 v1.0 supports first 32
zones only.
• Do NOT use PC5108 v1 & v2 on
the same panel.

1.4 Bell Wiring
Bell Output Voltage: 12 VDC, -15%/+15% when input voltage is between 85-110% of rated value and out-
put current is 0.0A - 0.7A.
NOTE:
Steady, Pulsed alarms are also supported.
The Bell output is supervised and power limited by 2A PTC. If unused, connect a 1000
resistor across
Bell+ and Bell- to prevent the panel from displaying a trouble. See [
][2] Trouble Display.
