Standard panel
Table 3 shows the standard panel capabilities.
The following describe the basic panel (out-of-box) hardware capabilities for all panels.
• Power: Input for an AC step-down, plug-in style transformer.
• Auxiliary power output: Output that supplies 9 to 14 VDC with up to 1 amp for bus devices and
hardwired detectors, such as smoke and motion detectors.
• Bus A and B: Input and output that provides communication between bus devices and the panel.
• Siren driver: Output that can drive an 8-ohm load and provides intrusion and fire alarm sounds for
partition 1. Six watts maximum.
• 2 onboard outputs: Can be used to activate other signaling devices based on system events.
• Out 1 is a 9 to 14 VDC source output, limited to 1.0 amp max.
• Out 2 is an open-collector output, rated up to 14 VDC, 300 mA max.
• Microphone input: Input used for 2-way audio when used in conjunction with the Interrogator 200
audio verification module.
• 8 supervised hardwired zones: Inputs for various hardwired detectors. Zone 8 can be set up in
programming to accept 2-wire smoke detectors. It sources 9 to 14 VDC, 90mA max.
• Built-in RF receiver: Allows use of up to 96 or 32 319.5 MHz. crystal and/or SAW learn mode
wireless sensors and touchpads.
• Phone line connection: Allows panel to communicate with central monitoring station and/or pagers.
Note: The total current sourced from all terminals cannot exceed 1 amp.
