OVERVIEW
The ELK-110 features pre-recorded alarm messages in
English & Spanish and 3 alarm channels, 1 for Burglar, 1 for
Fire, and 1 for Carbon Monoxide. The siren/tones include
High/Low Siren for Burglary, Temporal 3 Coded Tone for Fire,
and Temporal 4 Coded Tone for Carbon Monoxide. Jumper
pins allow customization of options and features.
INPUTS
The ELK-110 has both positive (+BA) and negative (-BA)
inputs for Burglary conditions, making it compatible with
most Controls. Tripping either channel causes a Burglary
warning message and a loud high/low siren. For Controls
that provide steady and pulsing on their alarm outputs, the
ELK-110 o ers ComboTrigger™ which can distinguish a pulse
from a steady and automatically switch Burg to Fire.
+FA (FIRE) This input is positive (+) trip only, and features
a Fire warning message and a Temporal 3 Coded Tone. It
is compliant with ANSI standard for Audible Emergency
Evacuation Signaling.
+CO (Carbon Monoxide) This input is positive (+) trip only,
and features a Carbon Monoxide warning message and a
Temporal 4 Coded Tone.
FIRE (+FA) Override Should the +FA input be activated while
either the +BA or +CO Alarm channels are sounding, Fire will
take priority and will override the other alarms.
Caution: This ONLY functions on the +FA input. Pulsing
on the +BA or -BA to activate Fire WILL NOT OVERRIDE
the +BA or +CO alarms. If Fire priority override is desired,
connect ONLY Positive (+) Steady output triggers to the
three (+) inputs.
VOICE MESSAGES
Voice messages are spoken in English Only, or English
followed by Spanish. (See "Switch & Jumper Options").
BA (Burglar) English:
Intruder, intruder, the authorities have been noti ed, leave
immediately. Followed by high/low Alarm sound. This
repeats until trigger is removed. {Spanish can be added
by placing a shorting jumper on JP5}
FA (Fire) English:
Fire, re, please evacuate the building. Followed by
Temporal 3 Coded Tone. This repeats until the trigger is
removed. {Spanish can be added by placing a shorting
jumper on JP5}
CO (Carbon Monoxide) English:
Warning, Carbon Monoxide, please evacuate the building.
Followed by Temporal 4 Coded Tone. This repeats until
the trigger is removed. {Spanish can be added by placing
a shorting jumper on JP5}
OUTPUTS
SPEAKER - For connection of Alarm Speaker(s). The lowest
sustainable impedance is 4 Ohms.
SPKR TRBL - (Speaker Supervision, see option JP8)
The ELK-110 can monitor the SPEAKER Output and provide
a switched low (pull to ground) on terminal "Out" when no
continuity is detected (e.g. cut wire or removed speaker).
A N/O or EOL resistor Control Zone may be connected as
follows: Connect SPKR TRBL "NEG" terminal to the Zone
Neg. Connect SPKR TRBL "OUT" to the Zone Input. The EOL
resistor (if used) is connected across these inputs.
* Supervision only detects total loss of continuity, it will not
detect a dead short on the SPEAKER output. *
Be sure to place a shorting jumper on JP8 and connect the
RED (+12V) wire to a constant power source.
When the ELK-110 is active and sounding an alarm it may
be possible for the SPKR TRBL output to inadvertently false
activate. This is normal due to the fact that speaker continuity
cannot be measured while the siren is sounding.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
MilliMiser™ - option reduces current draw for controls with
limited alarm output power
ComboTrigger™ - option for single alarm output controls which
have the option of steady for burglar and pulsing for re.
VolumeStep™ - option starts the siren sounds at low volume and
step to full volume after 30 seconds. {voice does not step}

Overview

The ELK-110 Voice Driver is a versatile device designed for residential and commercial alarm applications, combining high-quality voice messages with conventional siren and temporal code tone sounds. It features three input channels for Burglar, Fire, and Carbon Monoxide alarms, bilingual voice messages, and various customizable options.

Function Description:

The ELK-110 provides pre-recorded alarm messages in both English and Spanish, with three distinct alarm channels: one for Burglar, one for Fire, and one for Carbon Monoxide. The siren/tones include a High/Low Siren for Burglary, a Temporal 3 Coded Tone for Fire (compliant with ANSI standard for Audible Emergency Evacuation Signaling), and a Temporal 4 Coded Tone for Carbon Monoxide. Jumper pins allow for extensive customization of options and features.

Inputs:

The device supports both positive (+BA) and negative (-BA) inputs for Burglar conditions, making it compatible with most control panels. Activating either channel triggers a Burglary warning message and a loud high/low siren. For control panels that provide steady and pulsing alarm outputs, the ELK-110 offers "ComboTrigger™," which can distinguish a pulse from a steady signal and automatically switch from Burglar to Fire.

The +FA (FIRE) input is positive (+) trip only and features a Fire warning message and a Temporal 3 Coded Tone. The +CO (Carbon Monoxide) input is positive (+) trip only and features a Carbon Monoxide warning message and a Temporal 4 Coded Tone. FIRE (+FA) Override: If the +FA input is activated while either the +BA or +CO Alarm channels are sounding, Fire will take priority and override the other alarms. This function only works on the +FA input. Pulsing on the +BA or -BA inputs will not override the +BA or +CO alarms. For Fire priority override, positive (+) steady output triggers must be connected to the three (+) inputs.

Voice Messages:

Voice messages are spoken in English Only, or English followed by Spanish (selectable via "Switch & Jumper Options"). BA (Burglar) English: "Intruder, intruder, the authorities have been notified, leave immediately." Followed by a high/low Alarm sound. This repeats until the trigger is removed. Spanish can be added by placing a shorting jumper on JP5. FA (Fire) English: "Fire, fire, please evacuate the building." Followed by Temporal 3 Coded Tone. This repeats until the trigger is removed. Spanish can be added by placing a shorting jumper on JP5. CO (Carbon Monoxide) English: "Warning, Carbon Monoxide, please evacuate the building." Followed by Temporal 4 Coded Tone. This repeats until the trigger is removed. Spanish can be added by placing a shorting jumper on JP5.

Outputs:

SPEAKER: For connection of Alarm Speaker(s). The lowest sustainable impedance is 4 Ohms. SPKR TRBL (Speaker Supervision, see option JP8): The ELK-110 can monitor the SPEAKER Output and provide a switched low (pull to ground) on terminal "Out" when no continuity is detected (e.g., cut wire or removed speaker). A N/O or EOL resistor Control Zone may be connected as follows: Connect SPKR TRBL "NEG" terminal to the Zone Neg. Connect SPKR TRBL "OUT" to the Zone Input. The EOL resistor (if used) is connected across these inputs. Supervision only detects total loss of continuity; it will not detect a dead short on the SPEAKER output. Be sure to place a shorting jumper on JP8 and connect the RED (+12V) wire to a constant power source. When the ELK-110 is active and sounding an alarm, it may be possible for the SPKR TRBL output to inadvertently false activate. This is normal due to the fact that speaker continuity cannot be measured while the siren is sounding.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Nominal Operating Voltage: 10-14 Volts D.C.
  • Nominal Current Draw: 1.25 Amps (8 Ohm Speaker)
  • Minimum Low Current Trigger: 10.5VDC
  • Sound Level: 122 dB @1meter
  • Frequency Temporal 3: 800Hz
  • Frequency Temporal 4: 1000Hz
  • MilliMiser™ Current Drain: 800 mA (reduces current draw for controls with limited alarm output power)
  • Maximum Speaker Loading: 4 Ohms
  • Size: 2.75" X 4.0" (70mm X 102mm)

Usage Features:

  • MilliMiser™: An option that reduces current draw for controls with limited alarm output power.
  • ComboTrigger™: An option for single alarm output controls which have the option of steady for burglar and pulsing for fire.
  • VolumeStep™: An option that starts the siren sounds at low volume and steps to full volume after 30 seconds (voice does not step).
  • Low Current Triggers: Connecting the RED (+12V) wire to a constant 12V power source allows the +CO, +FA, and +BA inputs to activate from low current voltage triggers. If the RED wire is not used, each input will draw the maximum operating current, which some control outputs may not support.
  • DETECT PULSING +BA OR -BA (COMBOTRIGGER) JP4: Enables a pulsing input to activate Fire. A steady input will activate Burglar.
  • ENGLISH & SPANISH JP5: Adds Spanish voice which will alternate with English.
  • SIREN VOLUME STEP JP6: Causes Siren sounds to start LOW and step to full volume after 30 seconds.
  • MILLIMISER JP7: Lowers maximum siren volume, thereby reducing overall current drain.
  • MCU POWER JP8: To utilize Speaker Supervision, a shorting jumper must be placed on JP8, and the RED (+12V) wire must be connected to a constant power source.
  • Hookup for Alarm Output with switching Negative (-) e.g. DSC: The positive +Bell is always hot and the negative -Bell is switched on for alarms. Burglar will sound if the -Bell output is steady. Fire will sound if the -Bell output is pulsing. To detect pulsing, Jumper JP4 must be ON and the RED wire must be connected to +Bell or an Aux. +12 Volt source.
  • Hookup for Alarm Output with switching Positive (+): The positive +Bell terminal is switched on for alarms. Burglar will sound if the +Bell output is steady. Fire will sound if the +Bell output is pulsing. To detect pulsing, Jumper JP4 must be ON and the RED wire must be connected to an Aux. +12 Volt source.

Maintenance Features:

  • Speaker Supervision (SPKR TRBL): This feature monitors the speaker output for continuity, providing a switched low output if a cut wire or disconnected speaker is detected. This allows for proactive maintenance by signaling a speaker issue to the control panel.
  • Power Protection: If the control panel does not have an auxiliary output rated for up to 2 Amps, an alternative is to connect the Red wire to the standby battery using a 2 Amp in-line fuse and holder for safety. For protection against short circuits, the source voltage connection to the ELK-110 should always be fused or otherwise protected at no greater than 3 Amps.
