4U iSTAR Pro as a Burglar Alarm System Unit
The iSTAR Pro Rack Mount controller provides burglar alarm / intrusion
detection functionality per UL/ANSI standard 1076 (proprietary burglar alarm
system units). Please follow these instructions when deploying the iSTAR Pro
Rack Mount for this application.
Installation
The 4U Rack Mount unit must be mounted in a standard 19” rack, with 4U (7”)
of vertical rack space provided. The unit and slide rails may be mounted in
either a four-post rack, or a two post rack, following the instructions provided
[link to page]. The installation must adhere to the following environmental
conditions:
0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F),
5 to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing
The system must be installed within the protected premise and wired in
accordance with the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70-1993), and the
local authorities having jurisdiction.
Main Power
Provide 115 VAC +/- 10% / 60 Hz line voltage power to the unit from a non-
switched circuit (230VAC operation is not supported). A standard type SJ
flexible power cord is provided, and is attached to the rear of the unit. Since the
unit also provides power for external locking mechanisms, actual power draw
will vary greatly for different installations, but a typical installation with 16
locks will draw roughly 300W. Be sure to calculate the power draw for the
specific installation.
Backup Power
The UL/ANSI 1076 standard requires a backup power source that provides
four hours of backup power in the event that main power is unavailable. The
standard also calls for alarm indication of AC power fail to the central
supervising station (C•CURE 800 or C•CURE 9000 host).
Provide a UL-listed rack-mount UPS (uninterruptible power supply) unit that is
sized to deliver the required power to the Rack Mount iSTAR Pro and also
capable of delivering that power level for four hours. This may require the
addition of extended battery modules for some UPS models.
UPS Type: Line-interactive or online rack-mount UPS, 115VAC/60Hz
input, 115VAC/60Hz output.
UPS Rating: Minimum 500W, minimum 4 hours runtime at full load.
