SA-DACT wiring
The optional SA-DACT provides communications between the control panel and the
central station over a telephone line system. The SA-DACT is listed for use with the
following DACRs.

Note: If the line card firmware is V2.2 or later, use the default CMS network settings. If the line card
firmware is V2.2 or earlier, the Timeout Seconds must be set to 60, the Hello Timer set to 75, and the
Line Cut timer in the line card itself set to 175 seconds. If you are unsure of the firmware version in the
receiver or there are communication faults between the panel and the receiver, then these settings
are recommended.
Phone lines connect to the dialer using connectors on the dialer’s main circuit board.
Phone line 1 connects to connector J1 and phone line 2 connects to connector J4.
The card typically connects to an RJ-31X block using an eight-position, four-
conductor modular cord. Wire the RJ-31X block as shown below.
Note: Install a listed secondary telephone protector between the telco network and
the SA-DACT card. The SA-DACT card must be the next piece of equipment that
connects to the telephone company (TELCO) telephone lines.
