Commissioning
It is important that the Sounder Control Unit be fully tested after installation. An XP95 Test Set,
part no 55000-870, item no 204-0016, may be used to carry out functional testing of individual
units. It can also be used to perform data integrity tests of an entire loop. For a full technical
specifi cation of the Sounder Control Unit, please refer to the Sounder Control Unit product data
sheet, PDS201-0127. For further information on isolators, please refer to PDS201-9001.
The cause and effect programming (the control panel software responsible for switching
sounders and outputs etc. in alarm condition) should be fully checked, along with all
equipment connected to the Sounder Control Unit.
Note: If this product has been subjected to excessive shock during transportation, it may be
received with the relay contacts in the ‘set’ position. Reset the relay by subjecting it to one
operating cycle before commissioning the system.

Troubleshooting
Before investigating individual units for faults, it is very important to check that the system wiring
is fault free. Earth faults on a data loop or any ancillary zone wiring may cause communication
errors. Many fault conditions are the result of simple wiring errors. Check all connections to the
unit and make sure the correct value resistors are fi tted where necessary.

Sounder Control Unit
Installation Guide
General
The Sounder Control Unit, part no 55000-852AMP, item no 201-0127, is designed to control a
zone of sounders powered by an external DC supply. It is supplied with a backbox for surface
mounting and has an integral isolator as standard.
Note: The Sounder Control Unit is not designed for outdoor use unless it is mounted in a suitable
weatherproof enclosure.
Installation
1. Mount the backbox as required and install all cables for termination. Ensure that earth
continuity is maintained.
2. Remove the cover plate (if secured) from the Sounder Control Unit assembly by inserting
the blade of a terminal screwdriver into each of the four securing clips in turn, gently
prising the outer edge of the cover plate over the clips underneath. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE
FORCE.
3. Terminate all cables observing polarity.
Note: Cable length to be kept 3m or under.
4. Gently push the completed assembly towards the backbox until the mounting holes are
aligned and secure with the two mounting screws provided. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
5. Set the address of the unit as shown on page 3.
6. Finally, when commissioning is complete, fi t the cover plate by placing it in position,
observing the correct orientation (LEDs on the PCB must be aligned with viewing holes).
Apply pressure to the cover plate until all four clips are holding it in position.

Individual Address Setting
The individual address of the Sounder Control Unit is set using the seven-segment DIL switch.
Each segment of the switch must be set to “0” or “1”, using a small screwdriver or similar tool. A
complete list of address settings is shown opposite.

Group Address Setting
In Group mode the Sounder Control Unit responds to an additional address referred to as the
“group address”, which is used to activate groups of Sounder Control Units simultaneously. (The
unit continues to respond to its own individual address and report its status from that address in
the normal way.) The group address is selected by the four-segment DIL switch which is factory-
set to 0000. A group address may be any spare address within–and only within–the range 112
to 126 inclusive. The required group address is set by moving one or more of the segments on
the switch to “1”. The following table shows the settings for the group address switch.

LED Indicators
Three LEDs are fi tted to the PCB to indicate functions as follows:
 Isolator Illuminated yellow when a short circuit on the loop
causes the integral isolator to operate
 Sounders On Illuminated red when sounder relay is energised
 Fault Illuminated yellow under any fault condition (except group
address confl ict)
Address Setting
The Sounder Control Unit is designed to be polled by the control panel in two ways, individually
or as part of a group. Two DIL switches are provided for setting the addresses.
Note: one switch is sealed with a sticky label. This label should not be removed unless the unit is
to be controlled as part of a group.
