2.0 Commissioning the EVC
2.1 Commissioning a EVC Panel (Networked or Stand alone)
2.1.1 Outstation Initial Setup
With reference to document - DEL2073 (supplied with each outstation):
 At each outstation connect the six cables (2 sets - positive / negative / earth - screen) to
outstation terminal board. These are the incoming and outgoing cables. Failure to connect
the earth – screen to the screen terminal will prevent the outstation from logging onto the loop.
This can not be left twisted in the rear of the back box like a Fire Alarm Installation.
 Set the address of the outstation on SW1. Switch 1 is address 1 and the address is set in Binary
 Set switch 7 for Fire Telephone or switch 8 for Disable Toilet Alarm on SW1
 Set the volume pot VR5 to mid point
 Connect the ribbon cable in the back box to the test header J2. (Not to the outstation).
 At the control panel, check the cable resistance across each conductor is less than 15.
 At each outstation disconnect the ribbon cable from the test header and connect to the outstation.
