The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to the
telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an
incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5). To be certain of the
number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the RENs, contact the telephone
company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
If the D6412/D4412 Control/Communicator causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will
notify you in advance. If advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon
as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could
affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in
order for you to make the necessary modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with the D6412/D4412 Control/Communicator, please contact Radionics Customer
Service for repair and/or warranty information. If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may request that you remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved.

2.2 SIA Control Panel Standard
The D6412/D4412 utilizes features within the SIA Control Panel Standard, Features for False Alarm Reduction,
SIA CP-01-1994.02 (R2000.01). SIA features are noted in the D6412/D4412 Program Entry Guide (P/N: 45351).
The standard is available through the Security Industry Association (SIA), 635 Slaters Lane, Suite 110,
Alexandria, Virginia 22314. You can e-mail requests for standards to: [email protected].
2.3 Standard Features
2.3.1 Points
Radionics’ D6412 Control/Communicator panel provides up to 40 separate points of protection (24 for the
D4412 panel). Point programming parameters determine the panel’s response to open and shorted conditions
on the point’s sensor loop. Points are programmed individually with several options to customize the protection
to your installation.
There are eight sensor loops available on the panel (for ‘on-board’ points). Off-board point locations can be
standard wired sensor loops (DX2010 Point Expander) or premises RF transmitters (premises RF receiver is
required).
The 40 points of protection for the D6412 (24 points for the D4412) can be located on any combination of wired
and RF locations.
2.3.2 Areas and Accounts
The system supports up to four separate areas for the D6412 and up to two separate areas for the D4412. You
can assign all points to a single area or spread them out over a maximum of two or four areas, model
dependent.
You arm and disarm the panel by area. You can arm and disarm several areas with one function. You can also
assign a passcode an authority level that allows a user to arm an area from a remote command center in
another area. Assigning each area its own account number creates four (D6412) or two (D4412) separate
accounts in one panel. Assigning the same account number to different areas, groups them together in a single
account.
Area options include: exit tone and delay, separate fire and burglary outputs, and auto opening and closing
skeds. Area 1 can be programmed as a ‘common’ area. A ‘First to Open, Last to Close’ arming feature is
available.
Overview

D6412/D4412
2.3.3 Communicator
The panel uses a built-in digital communicator to send reports to the receiver. The panel transmits reports in
either Modem IIIa², Contact ID or Pager format.
Only the following Central Station Receivers support the panel’s Modem IIIa2Format:
•D6600 with CPU v01.01.03 (or higher)
•D6500 with D6511 MPU v1.05 (or higher)
IMPORTANT
The D6500 with D6510 MPU does not support the panel’s Modem IIIa2Format.
The panel connects to an RJ31X jack for phone line seizure. Connection to the RJ31X complies with FCC
regulations for using the public telephone network. You can program the panel to route reports to one of two
routing destinations.
The system has routing capabilities that allow you to direct groups of system event reports and individual point
reports to two different routing destinations. The reports can be routed to either destination, both destinations, or
to Destination 2 only on failure of Destination 1.
Each routing destination can be programmed with two phone numbers.
IMPORTANT
Check panel communications (from panel to Central Station) to verify that the panel is communicating
properly in the selected reporting format at least once annually.
2.3.4 Command Centers
You can connect a maximum of 8 fully supervised Command Centers to the system. The available power affects
the total number of Command Centers you can connect without providing an auxiliary power supply.
The panel transmits a serial device trouble report, SDI MISSING in the Modem IIIa² format or Sys
Peripheral Trouble in the Contact ID format, if it loses communication with a Command Center. Table 3
shows the Command Centers compatible with the panel. See Command Center in the D6412/D4412 Program
Entry Guide (P/N: 45351) for complete details on programming Command Center options.
Model Display
D621 16-Point LED
D623 2 lines of 16 characters, LCD
D625 2 lines of 16 characters, vacuum fluorescent
Table 3: Compatible Command Centers
2.3.5 Keyswitch
You can arm and disarm any of the available areas with maintained or momentary closure devices such as
keyswitches. Point programming determines loop responses and which area a keyswitch controls. Sub-control
units (D279) can arm and disarm individual points.
2.3.6 Alarm Event Memory
The system uses alarm event memory to store alarm events for each area. You can view the area alarm events
at a Command Center assigned to the area. The panel clears the area’s alarm event memory and starts storing
new alarm events when you turn the area On.
2.3.7 Event Log
The system stores 254 events from all areas in its event log.
All events can be stored even if the panel does not send a report for them. You can view the log at a text
Command Center (the D623 for example), print it locally using the DX4010 Serial Interface Module and a serial
printer, or upload it to the Remote Account Manager (RAM IV).
See Appendix B in the D6412/D4412 Program Entry Guide (P/N: 45351) for a listing of log events and how to
view them.

•D8103 Universal Enclosure (gray)
•D8109 Fire Enclosure (red)
•D8108A Attack Resistant Enclosure (gray)
3.3 Beginning the Installation
3.3.1 Mounting the Enclosure
Mount the enclosure in the desired location.
3.4 Premises Wiring
Run the necessary wiring throughout the premises and route the wires into the enclosure.
IMPORTANT
EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) may cause problems: EMI may occur if you install the system or run
system wires near the following:
• Computer network system
• Electrical lines, fluorescent fixtures or telephone cabling
• Ham radio transmitter site
• Heavy machinery and motors
• High voltage electrical equipment or transformers
• PBX telephone system
• Public service (police, fire departments, etc.) using radio communications
• Radio station transmitter site, or other broadcast station equipment
• Welding shop
If you think that EMI may be a problem, use shielded cable. The drain wire for the shielded cable must have
continuity from the earth ground terminal on the panel to the end of the wire run. If continuity is not maintained,
the shielded cable may aggravate potential noise problems rather than eliminate them.
Connecting the drain wire to ground at any place other than the earth ground terminal may also produce
problems. If you cut the drain wire to install devices, be certain to splice it together. Carefully solder and tape all
splices.

3.5.2 Closing the Installer Switch
Closing the Installer Switch disables the panel (see Figure 3). System reporting is disabled and the system
cannot be armed. A system trouble shows at all keypads.
Opening the Installer Switch from the closed position resets the panel. The panel resets all its timers, counters,
indexes, and buffers. Any points that restore after a reset is performed do not generate restoral reports.
Leaving the Installer Switch in the closed position allows you to power up the panel and charge the battery as
you install the detection devices and Command Centers.

3.6 Finishing the Installation
3.6.1 Earth Ground and Installer Switch
First, make the earth ground connection and close the Installer Switch if you have not already done so.
To reduce the occurrence of false alarms upon toggling of the Installer Switch, the panel ignores all point faults
while the devices stabilize during the setup process. The panel’s startup process takes approximately 60
seconds to complete, and it occurs at power-up and when the panel resets (Installer Switch OPEN). See
Sections 3.6.7, Power Up, and 13.3.10, Exiting the Installer’s Menu, for more information. During this period, a
screen showing the panel model number (D6412 or D4412), firmware revision number and a “Please Wait...”
message appears for approximately 10 seconds.
D6412 Rev X.XX
Please Wait...
3.6.2 Charge the Battery as You Finish
Connect the battery and then the transformer so that the panel can charge the battery as you finish the
installation. See Section 4.0, Power Supply, for instructions.
Self Diagnostics at Power Up and Reset: The system performs a series of self diagnostic tests of its
hardware, software, and program at power up and at reset. They take about 60 seconds to complete. Command
centers may display ‘System Fault’ and sound during the power up and reset interval.
If the panel fails any of the tests, a system trouble message appears at the Command Centers.
Touch the Earth Ground Terminal first: To discharge any static charge you may be carrying, always touch the
panel’s earth ground terminal before beginning work on the panel.
3.6.3 Install and Wire Detection Devices
Install and wire detection devices and Command Centers at their locations throughout the premises.
Do not make the connections at the panel end of the wiring yet.
Section 7.0, On-Board Sensor Loops, contains instructions for wiring the on-board point locations to detection
devices. Section 11.0, Arming Devices, contains instructions for wiring the Command Centers.
Instructions for wiring the off-board point locations are found in the instructions packaged with the point
expansion devices.

D6412/D4412
3.6.4 Install Modules
1. Power Down First: Power down the unit by unplugging the transformer and disconnecting the battery.
Radionics recommends that you power down the unit when installing modules, or when making wiring
connections to the panel.
2. Install and wire any modules required for your installation as described in the module’s installation
instructions.
Instructions for the DX2010 Point Expansion Module and the DX3010 Output Expansion Module are included in
this manual.
See Section 8.0, Off-board Sensor Loops, for DX2010 instructions. See Section 10.0, Off-Board Outputs for
DX3010 instructions.
3.6.5 Make the Telephone Connections
If you are connecting the panel to a ground start phone system, you need to install a D133/D134 Relay. See
Section 6.0, Telephone Connections, for complete instructions.
3.6.6 Connect the On-Board Points and Command Centers
Connect the on-board points and Command Center wiring to the system. See Section 7.0, On-Board Sensor
Loops, and Section 11.0, Arming Devices, for instructions.
3.6.7 Power Up
Reconnect the battery and then plug in the transformer.
Leave the Installer Switch in the CLOSED position for now (see Figure 3). The following sequence of events
occurs:
1. “System Fault” appears on the Text Command Center(s) and all Command Centers emit a single tone for
approximately 10 seconds.
2. A screen showing the panel model number (D6412 or D4412), firmware revision number and a “Please
Wait...” message appears for approximately 10 seconds.
D6412 Rev X.XX
Please Wait...
3. “Trouble! Press Cmd 4 to View” appears. Press [Cmd] + [4] key. A new message appears: Date/Time lost!
Press 5 to set.” Press the [5] key to enter the Date/Time window and set accordingly.
To reduce the occurrence of false alarms upon panel power-up (or restoration of power after a complete
loss of primary and secondary power), the panel ignores all point faults for approximately 60 seconds while
the devices stabilize. This process is part of the panel’s start-up process, and it occurs at power-up. This
60-second period begins when the “Please Wait...” screen appears.
The “Trouble! Press Cmd 4 to View” message reappears, indicating that the Installer Switch is closed. To
return the system to normal (disarmed, no fault/trouble conditions), open the Installer Switch (unless you
are ready to program the panel).
3.7 Programming the Panel
If you have not created a program for the panel, review the D6412/D4412 Program Entry Guide (P/N: 45351).
Check to be certain you have all the required accessory modules installed for the features you want to use. The
Installer Switch must be in the closed position to program the panel from a keypad.
You can enter your custom program at a text keypad, or send it to the panel from the Remote Account Manager
(RAM IV). There is a connector provided on the panel for quick connection of an ‘installers’ keypad to the
system for programming. See Section 13.0, Installer’s Keypad and Installer Mode, for complete instructions for
the installer keypad.
After you finish programming, move the Installer Switch to the open position (see Figure 3). If it is programmed
for reporting, the panel transmits a reboot report to the receiver when you move the Installer Switch to the open
position.

3.8 Check for Fire Alarm Verification
You must check the Alarm Verification Box in the lower left corner of the label if you programmed Point 1 for Fire
with Verification. See Point Index in the D6412/D4412 Program Entry Guide (P/N: 45351). See Section 14.0,
Installation Label, for the location of the Alarm Verification Box on each installation label.
3.9 Testing the System
After finishing the installation and programming of the panel, make a complete functional test of the system. Test
the panel and all devices for proper operation. Test after you first program the panel and after any subsequent
programming session.
Walk Test: Use the walk test (Cmd 44) or the point test available in the Installer Mode (see Section 13.0,
Installer’s Keypad and Installer Mode) to perform a complete test of the panel.
If you test a device, and the panel does not respond, there may be a problem with the device, the wiring, a
module setting, or the programming for the point.
Clear after test: To clear the event memory and report buffer, momentarily close the Installer Switch. Events
stored in the panel’s event log are not cleared.
4.0 Power Supply
4.1 Primary Power
4.1.1 Primary (AC) Power Circuit
A 18 VAC, 22 VA internally fused transformer (Radionics model CX4010) is the primary power source. The AC
power circuit provides 700 mA of rectified AC power. The panel reserves 100 mA of this power for internal
operations leaving 600 mA for powered devices.
Transient suppressors and spark gaps protect the circuit from power surges. This protection relies on the
panel’s earth ground connection. Make sure you connect the earth ground terminal to a proper ground. See
Section 3.5.1, Connecting Earth Ground.
AC Power Failure
The system indicates an AC power failure when the power at the terminals marked ‘18 VAC’ is interrupted.
Power must be missing for 120 seconds before the panel acknowledges the failure. Power must be maintained
at those terminals for 120 seconds before the panel acknowledges the restoral of power.
4.1.2 Installing the Transformer
CAUTION
Shorting the terminals for prolonged periods of time may cause permanent damage. Connect the
transformer to the panel terminals before plugging it into the power source.
IMPORTANT
Radionics recommends that you always connect the battery first and then plug in the transformer. See
Section 4.2.2, Installing the Battery, for more information.
Use 18 AWG (1.2 mm) (minimum) wire to connect the transformer to the panel. Wire length should be kept as
short as possible. Maximum length is 50 ft. (15.2 m).
AC wiring can induce both noise and low level voltage into adjacent wiring. Route phone and sensor loop wiring
away from any AC conductors, including the transformer wire. Route data wiring away from AC and phone
wiring.
Only plug the transformer into an unswitched, 120 VAC, 60 Hz power outlet. Secure the transformer to the outlet
with the screw provided.
4.2 Secondary Power
4.2.1 Secondary (DC) Power
A 12V, 7 Ah sealed lead-acid rechargeable battery (D126) supplies secondary power for auxiliary and alarm
outputs, and powers the system during interruptions in primary (AC) power.
Lead Acid Batteries ONLY: The charging circuit is calibrated for lead-acid batteries. Do not use gel-cell or
nicad batteries.
Larger Battery Increases Back-up Time: To increase battery back-up time, connect a 12V, 18 Ah battery.
