a. To comply with UL requirements, use shielded, minimum 22 AWG stranded, twisted pair cable for monitor points,
supervised inputs, DSMs, and REXs. Use Belden 9462 or equivalent.
b. Check wire lengths to verify that voltage drops are acceptable.
Calculations are based on a single RM-4 reader with keypad and LCD (250 mA):
- Using 22 AWG, distance = 600 ft. (.0165 ft.)
- Using 18 AWG, distance = 1500 ft. (.0065 ft.)

NOTE
The Tamper, Low Battery, and AC power fail inputs must be enabled
and connected to the iSTAR Ultra to report for compliance with UL
requirements.
For UL listed products, burglar alarm inputs must be supervised.
UL Listed panic hardware shall be used to allow emergency exit from
a protected area.
The USTAR-GCM AC Fail/Lo Batt and COMM, USTAR-GCM and
USTAR-ACM Tamper, USTAR-GCM power, USTAR-ACM power
(Reader), USTAR-ACM lock 1 and lock 2 connections are not to leave
the room of installation or 25’ beyond control unit. Therefore, these
connections were not tested for output transients.
