Introduction
The Galaxy 16 and 16 plus are versatile, technologically advanced, 8–16 zone
security control panels designed for residential and smaller commercial installa-
tions.
This guide contains the information required to install, program and operate the
Galaxy 16 and 16 plus control panels. The guide assumes that the Galaxy 16/16
plus control panel is fitted with software version V2.00 or above.
The Galaxy control panels default to standard functions and parameters, this
means that the panels are operational on power up, however, an extensive range
of functions and parameters can be modified to satisfy individual installation
requirements.
TheGalaxy16and16pluscontrolpanels aresimpleto installandprogram. Never-
theless, please read the guide carefully before using the system and retain it for
futurereference.

Quick Setup
To quickly set up a Galaxy 16 or 16 plus these simple steps should be followed.
Note: these steps should not be followed for a first time set up procedure, only
thosefamiliar withtheGalaxy16and 16plus controlpanelsshouldusethe
quick set up procedure.
1. Connect a 1kΩ (±1%) resistor across each of the zone terminals on the
GalaxyControlPanel,andtheGalaxyRIOorSmartPowerSupply(iffitted).
2. Ensurethat thetamperreyurnloop,the terminalmarkedas Tonthecontrol
panel PCB is chorted to 0 V at one of the terminals marked as - on the
controlpanel PCB.
3. Connecta keypadtothelineterminals onthe controlpanel PCB.Connect
theterminals asfollows:
4. Connect a 680 Ω end-of-line resistor across the A abd B terminals of the
Galaxykeypad.
5. Ensure that the keypad is fitted to the keypad mounting bracket: a keypad
tamper occurs if the tyamper spring is not retained when the system is
powered up.
6. Connect the mains wiring to the control panel - do not switch on the a.c.
mains supply.
7. Replace te control panel enclosure lid and secure the fastening screws.
8. Turn on the a.c. mains supply.
9. The following events occur:
• theGalaxy keypadbuzzerandthecontrolpanelspeaker outputactivate.
• the Galaxy keypad shows ÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜ on the LCD display.
• the sounders stop and the keypad display goes blank.
• thegreen powerLED onthe Galaxykeypad illuminates.
• the default banner is displayed on the Galaxy keypad.
10. The system is now ready to be programmed, refer to Section 5: Menu
Options for details on the programming of the panel.

Section 1: SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Overview
The Galaxy 16 is an eight zone, seven output security control panel. All eight
zones are programmable and four of the outputs are programmable, the Galaxy
16 also has non programmable Bell, Strobe and Horn outputs fitted, see System
Architecture;Outputs. TheGalaxy16canbeexpandedto 16(programmable)
zones and 11 outputs (eight programmable) with the addition of a Galaxy
RemoteInput/Output (RIO)moduleoraGalaxySmartPower SupplyUnit
(SmartPSU). TheGalaxy 16also featuresaLineFailzonetomonitor telephone
linesfor usewith BTRedCare. TheGalaxy 16will operatewith threekeypads
fitted.The Galaxy16isalsocompatible withthe GalaxyRS232moduleandthe
GalaxyPrinter Interfacemodule. Figure1.1outlinesthelayout ofthe Galaxy16
PCB.Figure1.2 gives a summaryofthe Galaxy 16system. Theoutputs of the
Galaxy16 canbeusedtotrigger a3GSTU(12V).
TheGalaxy 16plushas allthe featuresof theGalaxy 16(with theexception of
theLineFail zone)and also featuresan on-boarddialler(telecom module)with
LineFaildetection capabilities builtin.The Galaxy 16plus alsohas theabilityto
workwith a3GSTU-PLIpluggedonto theappropriate sockets(SK1 andSK2).
Figure1.3 outlinesthelayout ofthe Galaxy16 plus PCB.Figure 1.4gives a
summaryof theGalaxy 16plus system.
Note: TheGalaxy 16and 16plusarenot compatiblewith theGalaxy MAX
reader(inOn-Linemode).
Appendix A at the back of the manual lists Galaxy 16,16 plusand optional,

System Installation and Wiring
The installation and wiring must be performed by a competent engineer. For
permanently connected equipment a readily accessible disconnect device must
be incorporated into the fixed wiring with contact separation of at least 3 mm on
each pole. The Galaxy control panel must be connected to the a.c. mains supply
(230V (+10%,– 8%)a.c. 50Hz)viaafusedconnectionoutlet.
The fuse in the mains outlet must not exceed 3 A.
Route the mains cable through the hole on the right hand side of the enclosure
base. Securely anchor the cable to the enclosure base using the cable tie as
shown in Figure 1.5 Securing the Mains Cable to the Panel.
Figure 1.5 Securing the Mains Cable to the Panel.
Secure the enclosure base to the wall using three 1.5" No. 8 round-head steel
screws through the holes provided.
The mains cable used must be a three core type (with green/yellow earth
insulation) of adequate current carrying capacity.
Note: The mains cable must satisfy the requirements stated in BS6500.
Connect the mains cable to the mains terminal block as follows:
• bluewire totheterminalmarkedN (Neutral)
• green/yellowwire totheterminalmarked (Earth)
• brownwiretotheterminalmarkedL(Live)
Note: No other connections to the mains connector are permitted.
All wiring must be in accordance with the latest edition of the IEE Wiring
Regulations(Regulations forElectrical Installations),see alsoBS7671.
Once all zone and module wiring has been completed replace the lid of the
enclosure and screw the lid to the base with the screws provided.
Stand-byBattery
The Galaxy 16/16 plus can accommodate a 15 Ahr stand-by battery in the
control panel enclosure. Ensure that the battery connector leads on the control
panel PCB are connected to the correct terminals on the battery.
