Maintenance
The intrusion control panel is only allowed to be serviced by
dedicated service personal. The screw of the housing is
intended to protect the product from unintended use.
For metal housing, the screw is already installed out of the box.
For plastic housing, the screw, available inside housing, should
be mounted before first time use.
To open the housing, remove the housing screw and open the
cover.
After the maintenance, replace the cover and fix it with the
cover screw.
Mains power connection
Electrical installation should be carried out by a skilled person.
Solid insulation of the building mains cables should meet the
technical and the environmental specifications of the
equipment.
Wire insulation of cables connected to the equipment must
conform to IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-1-3 or IEC 60332-2-

P/N 466-5570 (EN) • REV E • ISS 22MAR22 7 / 18
2, depending on the wire cross-sectional area, or IEC TS
60695-11-21, regardless of cross-sectional area.
Alternatively, such wires must comply with UL 2556 VW-1.
Appropriate wire cross-sectional area must be selected to
withstand 2 A current.
Use the mains connector terminal for connecting the AC mains
supply. A fixed cable or flexible mains lead to earthed mains
outlet can be used. When fixed wiring is used, insert
a dedicated all-pole circuit breaker in the power distribution
network. In all cases the mains connection must comply with
local regulations.
Always connect the building protective earthing wire and
ensure the connection is reliable. See also “Earthing” on page
8.
In case the panel is connected to the power grid using fixed
wiring, it is recommended that earth wire is longer than line
and neutral.
Do connect incoming line and neutral to mains connection
block according to the label. This assures that the line will be
protected by the mains fuse, and that service can be done by
service personnel.
Make sure that before connecting the mains power, the mains
power supply is disconnected.
When installing the mains power, use strain reliefs such as
cable ties and coupling PG16s to ensure proper wiring and
minimize the risk of wire damage during installation and use. If
product entry hole breakouts are used, it is required to also
make use of UL-V2 (or better) approved PG16 cable gland.
Refer to PG16 specification to meet minimum and maximum
cable diameters.
In all cases local regulations must be observed.
WARNING: Electrocution hazard. To avoid personal injury or
death from electrocution, remove all sources of power and
allow stored energy to discharge before installing or removing
equipment.
Battery installation
WARNING! Using incorrect types of batteries may cause risk
of fire, explosion or chemical leakage. Use only types of
batteries listed in “Specifications” on page 9.
To install the battery, do the following:
1. Make sure that your product settings allow you to open its
cover without starting the tamper alarm.
2. Make sure that the mains power is off and remove the
cover.
3. If necessary, remove the battery shield, unscrewing four
screws.
4. Connect the battery, sliding the product wires on the wire
connectors. Note that depending on the battery model, the
connectors can be located differently.
5. Mount the battery shield using four screws.
WARNING! The battery shield must be mounted during normal
device operation.
In case a battery BS131 (12 V / 18 Ah) in an ATS1640 housing
is used in combination with ATS7700 PSTN expander board, it
is required to have double insulation in place. Use adequately
insulated wires for PSTN cabling, and make use of heat shrink.
Battery replacement
This product may contain one (or more) sealed, rechargeable,
BS-type lead-acid battery. Because removing a battery may
affect the product’s configuration settings or trigger an alarm,
only a qualified installer should remove the batteries.
To remove a battery:
1. Make sure that your product settings allow you to open the
cover without starting the tamper alarm.
2. Switch off the mains power, if necessary, and remove the
cover.
3. If necessary, remove the battery shield, unscrewing four
screws.
4. Disconnect the battery. Note that depending on the battery
model the connectors may be located differently.
5. Remove the battery from the holder.
Dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or
regulations.
See the specifications for your product or contact technical
support for information on replacement batteries.
Mounting
The unit is mounted with screws or bolts through the mounting
holes in the rear section of the enclosure.
Important: When the product is mounted to the wall,
assure that at least 3 times the weight of the product can be
supported. The product weight is the product itself plus battery
and accessories.
Ensure that the unit is mounted on a flat, solid, vertical surface
such that the base will not flex or warp when the mounting
screws and bolts are tightened.
Leave a 50 mm clearance between equipment enclosures
mounted side by side and 25 mm between the enclosure and
the sidewall.
The rechargeable battery must not be fitted until the control
panel is secured to the fixing surface. Under no circumstances
should the panel be transported with a battery fitted.
Take care that wire terminals are isolated. The use of cable
ties to neatly secure cables is recommended.
WARNING! Use cables that comply with IEC 60332-1-2 and
IEC 60332-1-3, or IEC 60332-2-2, or IEC TS 60695-11-21, or
UL 2556 VW-1.
Use cables and connections that can withstand at least 2 A
current.
General installation guidelines
The Advisor Advanced control panels have been designed,
assembled, and tested to meet the requirements of current

8 / 18 P/N 466-5570 (EN) • REV E • ISS 22MAR22
relevant standards for safety, emission, and immunity to
environmental electrical and electromagnetic interference.
If the following guidelines are followed, the system will give
many years of reliable service.
In addition to the following guidelines, during the installation of
the Advisor Advanced control panel, it is essential to follow any
country-dependent local standard requirements applicable to
the installation. Only a qualified electrician or other suitably
trained and qualified person should attempt to wire this system
to the AC mains or to the public telephone network.
•Ensure that there is a good earth available for the alarm
system.
•Maintain a separation between low voltage and mains
supply cables. Use separate points of cable entry to the
control panel cabinet.
•If the upper and/or lower cabinet entry cable holes are
used to route wiring into the control panel, always use
a proper pipe fitting system by means of an appropriate
conduit and junction box. For this purpose, use only
materials of suitable flammability class (HB or better).
•For mains power connection, use the mains connector
terminal either through a permanent wiring or a flexible
mains cable to an earthed mains outlet. Always use cable
ties to fix the mains cable at the dedicated fixing point
provided near the mains terminal connector.
- When installing permanent, fixed wiring, insert an easily
accessible, dedicated all-pole circuit breaker in the power
distribution network.
- Never attempt to solder mains connection wires at the
ends where they will be wired to the terminal connectors.
•Avoid loops of wire inside the control panel cabinet and
route cables so that they do not lie on top or underneath of
the printed circuit board. The use of cable ties is
recommended and improves neatness of the wiring within
the box.
•The battery used with this unit, must be made of materials
of suitable flammability class (HB or better).
•Any circuit connected either directly to the onboard relay
contacts or to the external relay contacts through the
onboard electronic output must be rated as a SELV (safety
extra-low voltage) operating circuit.
- A mains switching relay must not be fitted inside the
control panel cabinet.
- Always place a suppression diode (e.g. a 1N4001)
across the relay coil.
- Use only relays with good insulation between the
contacts and the coil.
- Maximum cable length for open collector output
connection may not exceed 30 m. For longer distances,
use relay output expansion (for example, ATS624 four-
relay expander).
•The minimum clearance between equipment closures is
50 mm (between equipment vents).
•Only use these units in a clean environment and not in
humid air. Environmental requirements are given in
“Specifications” on page 9.
•For the panel terminal connections, the recommended
torque is 0,3 to 0,4 N·m. This torque setting is
independent from the AWG (thickness) of the wires used.
A value of 0,4 N·m is also the maximum allowed torque for
this connector.
Earthing
WARNING: The correct earthing procedures must be followed.
Earthing of one cabinet containing several devices
All devices designed for the system have earth connections via
metal studs to the metal housing. Make sure that these metal
studs make good connection to the housing (beware of paint).
The earth connections of every piece of equipment in the
system can be used for connecting the screen of shielded
cables. Ensure that all internal protective bonding wires make
reliable connection with the building protective earthing wire.
Earthing panels in a single building
In one building several cabinets or devices are earthed to
a safety ground.
The safety ground for the building must be checked by
a licensed contractor.
Earthing panels in more buildings
If the wiring extends to separate buildings, more than one
common earth system will be used. Use ATS1740
isolator/repeaters to isolate the system databus. In this way the
system is protected against variations in earth potential.
Shielding
The shielding of all shielded cables used in the system should
only be connected at one side to one common earthing point in
a building (see Figure 9). If a shielded databus cable is routed
via more than one plastic device the shielding from incoming
and outgoing cable must be connected.
In case the IP connection is used, take care that the Ethernet
FTP cable remains within a single building. Do make use of
a proper router or switcher to isolate Ethernet cables between
various buildings.

Cabling
System databus preferred wiring
The terminator jumper (also called TERM link), or DIP switch
must be ON, or a 470 Ωresistor must be fitted at each of the
devices at the extreme ends of the daisy chained databus. In
a star-wiring configuration, the TERM link is only fitted on the
devices at the ends of the two longest system databus cable
runs.

(6) TERM link fitted (last device on local databus).
(7) Any remote expander like ATS1201(E) or ATS1210(E).
System databus connection
The system databus is used to connect remote expanders (to
provide extra zones) and keypads to the Advisor Advanced
control panel. Remote devices can be up to 1.5 km from an
Advisor Advanced control panel.
Keypads and remote expanders must be connected via
a shielded data cable with two twisted-pairs from the system
databus connection (WCAT 52 is recommended).
We recommend that you use a separate power supply for
a keypad when the distance between that keypad and the
nearest device is more than 100 meters.
If the keypad is powered with a separate power supply, do not
connect “+” from the system databus. Connect “+” of the local
power supply to “+” on the keypad, and connect 0 volts from
the power supply and 0 volts from the system databus to the
keypad terminal marked “−”. The maximum number of devices
allowed on the databus is given in “General features” on page
10.
Two system databuses (ATS4500A only)
Particular panel variants allow you to connect more bus
devices by using a second system databus. To install another
system databus, use ATS670 second RS485 LAN extension
module.
System addresses of devices connected to the additional bus
(BUS2) are determined by adding 16 to keypad physical
addresses, and 15 to expander addresses. So, BUS1 handles
keypads 1 to 16 and expanders 1 to 15, while BUS2 —
keypads 17 to 32 and expanders 16 to 30.
Note: Door controllers can only be installed on BUS1.
Zone connection
The inputs are set up as standard EOL freely programmable
zones. However, by programming the zones as dual loop, all
zone inputs can be programmed to give a few states indication
for the same zone.
Depending on the detector model, do the following to set up
zones:
•Choose your EOL connection type.
•Program input mode.
•Set end-of-line resistor values.
•Configure anti-masking option.
Refer to Advisor Advanced ATSx500A Installation and
Programming Manual for details.
Single loop zone wiring
In single loop zone wiring, two zones are required, one zone
for alarm and one zone for tamper. The tamper contacts are
wired in series with an EOL resistor.

(1) Zone terminal
C Common terminal
Z1 Zone 1 input
Z2 Zone 2 input
(2) Detector
A Alarm relay
T Tamper relay
Dual loop zone wiring
In dual loop wiring, one zone can detect a few detector states.
At least two resistors are used to define alarm and tamper
states. Depending on the programmed settings, there can be
additional states defined as masking alarm or sensor fault.
These states can be the following:
•Short (tamper)
•Active (alarm)
•Normal
•Masking
•Sensor fault
•Open (tamper)

Wiring and interconnections, when used for CPNI
applications
The use of wiring and the associated interconnections shall be
appropriate for the system performance required and the local
conditions within the service environment.
The installation should conform to good working practices and
be in accordance with the requirements of the relevant
electrical installation regulations (for example, BS 7671) as
well as the specific recommendations of the equipment
manufacturer(s).
All cables must be adequately supported and run in positions
where there is least risk of physical damage. Cables installed
below 2 m above floor level and cables that may be exposed to
accidental damage must be mechanically protected by ducting,
trunking, or conduit. Cables that drop to protective switches
mounted on the floor (for example, for the protection of roller
shutter doors) should be encased in conduit to provide
mechanical protection. Where the mechanical protection is
made of conductive material it must also be properly earthed.
Wherever possible, wired interconnections should be run
inside the supervised area. However, where this is impractical,
interconnections shall be provided with protection against
tampering, for example, by enclosing the cables in metal
conduit.
The choice of cable used to interconnect the other intruder
detection system components may depend upon the specific
requirements of the installation, for example, some installations
might require fire resistant cabling. However, where no specific
requirements are defined, the use of a screened twisted pair
type cable is preferred as it provides superior immunity to
electrical interference compared with standard unscreened
alarm cable.
In certain circumstances, mains borne electrical interference
may cause false alarms. This can generally be overcome with
the use of screened cabling and by filtering the mains input to
the power supplies and separating the intruder detection
system interconnecting cables from mains and/or high voltage
cables.
Although the electrical standards require low voltage cables
used in intruder detection systems to be run in separate
containment from the mains power or high voltage cabling, it is
worth confirming that adequate separation has actually been
provided.
All joints in the interconnection wiring should be both
mechanically and electrically secure. Where conduit access
points and/or junction boxes are fitted outside the supervised
area they shall incorporate tamper detection. The removal of
their access covers shall require the use of a tool and the

16 / 18 P/N 466-5570 (EN) • REV E • ISS 22MAR22
covers shall be continuously monitored by the intruder
detection system to detect unauthorised opening.
It is recognised that not all enclosures have the provision to
accept conduit. Where this is the case, screened cable may be
installed between the conduit terminating box and the
equipment. The exposed screen shall be kept as short as
possible at the point of entry into enclosures and shall be
terminated at one end to a cross bonded main earth point.
Wiring associated with alarm transmission paths (ATPs) shall
be concealed as far as is practical and means provided to
prevent the inadvertent disconnection of plug-in transmission
connections (for example, telephone socket with a locking
facility). When ordering a dedicated connection for the
supervised premises transceiver (SPT) from a
telecommunications provider, it is recommended that in
addition to the telephone socket outlet, a ‘block terminal’ is
fitted adjacent to the enclosure containing the SPT for
diagnostic purposes.
Where the routing of ATP wiring may be exposed to potential
lightning strikes, consideration should be given to the use of
additional lightning protection devices. Many SPT devices have
electrical transient suppression fitted which often requires the
SPT to have an electrical earth connection. Confirmation
should be sought from the alarm company that the earth
connection has been made correctly to a known good earth
potential. Failure to do so will result in the non-operation of the
transient protection device and a very high probability of a
catastrophic failure of the SPT.
Any landline-based alarm transmission path (Ethernet, PSTN,
etc.) shall have a cable interconnection between the SPT and
the first suitable alarm transmission network termination point
within the premises. This interconnection shall be made in one
continuous run and use termination components (or housings)
that protect against cable removal without the use of a tool.
The connection to the alarm transmission network shall be
made in such a manner that where non-alarm related
apparatus/services are also connected to that network, they do
not prevent, or interfere with, the correct operation of the alarm
transmission system.
