The detector will not operate if the power supply polarity is reversed.
Caution: Operating the detector when DC supply voltage is outside the specified voltage range may
cause damage to internal components. For further information refer to the Product
Specifications on page 11.
Attention : Le détecteur de fonctionnement lorsque la tension d'alimentation DC est en dehors de la plage
de tension spécifiée peut endommager les composants internes. Pour plus d'informations, se
reporter au notice descriptive du produit à la page 11.

Compliance
It is recommended that the power supply be compliant with local codes and standards required by the regional
authority. For code-specific information, refer to Codes and Standards Information for Air Sampling Smoke
Detection on page iii.
4.3.4 Communication Ports
The front door must be opened in order to access the communication ports. Refer to Section 7.2 for
information on opening the front door and Figure4-33 for the physical location of the ports.
Note: For all connection methods the detector also provides a gateway to all the other devices on the
VESDAnet network.
USB
The USB port is used for initial configuration and local maintenance or servicing of the VES-A10-P using a PC
installed with Xtralis VSC software.
Install Xtralis VSC prior to connecting the VES-A10-Pto the PCor Laptop. This ensures that the required
USBdrivers are present.
Notes:
l The USB port must not be used for permanent field connection.
l Refer to the Xtralis VSC documentation for operating system compatibility information.
Ethernet
The Ethernet port is used for permanent network connection to the VES-A10-P. An Ethernet cable can be
routed through the cable entry ports and plugged into the Ethernet port.
Use a standard Ethernet cable when connecting the VES-A10-P to a network switch, router or directly to a
PCor laptop.
WiFi
The WiFi module provides wireless connection of the detector to the building network for the purpose of
configuration and secondary monitoring.
