ECS Device Installation Installing the ECS-VCM
4.2.4 Installing and Connecting the ECS-SW24 to the ECS-VCM
The ECS-SW24 adds 24 switches to the IFP-100ECS, IFP-1000ECS, ECS-LOC, and IFP-2000ECS control panels for a total of 40 (with the
16 non-ECS switches on the ECS-VCM).
Follow these steps to install and connect the ECS-SW24:
1. Open the cabinet door and dead front panel.
2. Remove AC power from the main control panel.
3. Disconnect the backup batteries.
4. Install the ECS-SW24 on the six mounting studs located on the inside of the dead front panel. See Figure 4.3 for mounting locations.
5. Connect one end of the wiring assembly (P/N 130398, supplied) to the ECS-VCM and the other end to the ECS-SW24 as shown in
Figure 4.5. If two ECS-SW24 expanders are used (available on IFP-2000ECS and IFP-2100ECS only), connect one ECS-SW24 to the
other ECS-SW24 as shown in Figure 4.6.
6. Secure the switch expander(s) to the dead front panel using the supplied six ¼” hex nuts.
7. Restore AC power.
8. Reconnect backup batteries.
