Programmable Outputs - PGM1 to PGM4
Each PGM output is designed so that when activated by the
panel, the terminal will switch to ground PGM1, PGM3, and
PGM4 can each sink up to 50 mA of current. These PGMs can be
used to activate LEDs or a small buzzer. Connect the positive
side of the LED or buzzer to AUX+, the negative side to the PGM.
PGM2 is a high current output (300mA) and operates similarly to
PGM1. If more than 300 mA of current is required, a relay must be
used. Refer to the diagram. PGM2 can also be configured as an
input.
Zone Input Terminals - Z1 to Z8
Each detection device must be connected to a zone terminal on
the system. It is suggested that each zone have one detection
device however it is possible to wire multiple detection devices to
the same zone.
For zone wiring details, see section 2.10 ’Zone Wiring’.
Telephone Connection Terminals - TIP,RING,T-1,R-1
If a telephone line is required for central station communication or
downloading, connect an RJ-31X jack in the following manner:
Connect the PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 and modules that use the
telephone line(s) in the following order:
NOTE:
Ensure that all plugs and jacks meet the dimension, toler-
ance and metallic plating requirements of 47 C.F.R. Part 68, Sub-
Part F. For proper operation there must be no other telephone
equipment connected between the control panel and the tele-
phone company facilities.
NOTE: Do not connect the alarm panel communicator to tele-
phone lines intended for use with a FAX machine. These lines may
incorporate a voice filter which disconnects the line if anything
other than FAX signals are detected, resulting in incomplete trans-
missions.
2.3 Wire Routing for Power & Non-Power Limited
All wiring entry points are designated by the arrows. All circuits
are classified UL installation power limited except for the battery
leads which are not power limited.
A minimum ¼” (6.4mm) separation must be maintained at all
points between power limited and non-power limited wiring and
connections.
NOTE:
Wire entry for power limited wiring must be separated by
a different entry access from non-power limited wiring.
2.4 Keybus Operation and Wiring
The Keybus is used by the panel to communicate with all modules
connected and by the modules to talk to the panel. The RED and
BLK terminals are used to provide power while YEL and GRN are
clock and data.
The 4 Keybus terminals of the panel must be connected to the 4
Keybus terminals or wires of all modules.
The following conditions apply:
• Keybus should be run with minimum 22 gauge quad
(0.5mm), two pair twisted preferred
• The modules can be home run to the panel, connected in
series or can be T-tapped
• Any module can be connected anywhere along the Key-
bus, you do not need a separate Keybus wire run for key-
pads, zone expanders etc.
• No module can be more than 1,000'/305m (in wire length)
from the panel
NOTE:
Shielded wire should not be used for Keybus wiring.
Example of Keybus Wiring
Module (A) is wired correctly as it
is within 1,000'/305m of the panel,
in wire distance. Module (B) is
wired correctly as it is within
1,000'/305m of the panel, in wire
distance. Module (C) is NOT wired
correctly as it is further than
1,000'/305m from the panel, in
wire distance.
2.5 Current Ratings - Modules & Accessories
In order for the PC1616/PC1832/PC1864 system to operate prop-
erly, the power output capabilities of the main control and expan-
sion devices must not be exceeded. Use the data presented
below to ensure that no part of the system is overloaded and can-
not function properly.
