configuration, using the information in the tables below.
Note: Do not use spur and star configurations.
We strongly recommend you use a twisted-pair screened cable (Belden 8723
equivalent, Cat 5/5e). However, for cable runs of less than 100 m in normal
environments, standard 4-core cable can be used.

Wire detectors to zones
Note: Learning wireless detectors is covered on page 20.
Zones are the individual input circuits that are fully programmable using the Zones menu
(52 ent). This section describes how to change zone default settings, how to terminate
unused zones, and how to connect detectors.
Zone addressing
The zone address format is:
The RIO address range is 00 to 12, and each RIO can handle up to 8 zones.
Note: 00 and 01 are the fixed onboard RIO addresses.
Address onboard zones as follows:
Zone Address Zone Address
1 1001 7 1013
2 1002 8 1014
3 1003 9 1015
4 1004 10 1016
5 1011 11 1017
6 1012 12 1018
If required, use the Descriptor menu (52 ent 2 ent) to name your zones.
