EVO Control Panel 1
1 Introduction
The Digiplex EVO is a security and access control system with 8 on-board
zone inputs (16 with zone doubling) that is expandable to 48 or 192 zones
via the 4-wire combus. The EVO control panel features up to 999 users, 8
partitions, 32 doors and can support up to 254 modules in any combination.
The Digiplex EVO system provides the highest level of protection for banks,
high-security military and government sites, luxurious residential homes
and any place where maximum security is essential. These systems are
designed to be easy to use, and the modular concept of these systems
provides installers with labour-saving features that make expanding,
installing and servicing these systems quick and convenient.
Expand the EVO system by adding plug-and-play expansion modules
anywhere and in any combination on the 4-wire combus. Modules are
connected to the combus at the most convenient location and then their
zone inputs are assigned to the desired zone and partition. Also, only a
module’s used inputs are assigned to zones in the system. Keyswitches,
remote controls and unused module inputs do not use up zones. Once
installed, all combus modules, including motion detectors, can be
programmed remotely via a keypad or the WinLoad upload/download
software.
EVO also supports 32 virtual zones in addition to its security zones and
access control doors. Virtual zones can be used to automate PGM
activations without occupying a security zone and without affecting the
system’s security functions. The EVO system is a logical solution to every
installer’s security, access control and home automation installation needs.

2 Reference & Installation Manual
2 Installation
2.1 Recommended Installation Procedure
1. Connect a small group of modules, including a keypad. See Figure 3
on page 3 for connection information.
2. Connect the battery and AC power. Enter section [4000] (see section
13.20 on page 31). Only the Clock Loss trouble and/or Bell Absent
trouble should appear. Verify the connection if a module does not
appear in section [4000], or if a module trouble occurs.
3. Disconnect AC power and the battery, follow steps 2, 3 and 4 for other
modules.
4. If modules were removed, enter [4005](see section 13.18 on page
31).
5. Connect an LCD keypad at various points from the control panel and
use the keypad’s built-in voltmeter.
2.2 Location & Mounting
Select a site that is not accessible to intruders and leave at least 2" around
the box to allow proper ventilation and heat dissipation. The site should be
dry and close to an AC, ground and telephone line connection.
2.3 Earth Ground
Connect the ground connector to the enclosure and cold water pipe or
grounding rod as per local electrical codes.
2.4 AC Power
Use a 16.5Vac (50/60Hz) transformer with a minimum 20VA rating. For
increased power use a 40VA rating. For UL Listed systems, use model
#BE156240CAA. For CSA listed systems, use model #BE116240AAA. Do
not use any switch-controlled outlets to power the transformer.
Do not connect the transformer or the backup battery until all wiring is completed.
When powering up the EVO control panel, the panel will begin a module scan.
2.5 Backup Battery
Connect a 12Vdc 7Ah rechargeable acid/lead or gel cell backup battery
(YUASA model #NP7-12 recommended). Verify the polarity, as reversed
connections will blow the battery fuse. For details on how to set the Battery
Charge Current to either 350mA or 850mA, see section 13.6 on page 30.
2.5.1 Battery Test
The control panel conducts a dynamic battery test under load every 60
seconds. If the battery is disconnected, if its capacity is too low or if the
battery voltage drops to 10.5 volts or less when there is no AC, the “Battery
Trouble” message will appear in the Trouble Display. At 8.5 volts, the panel
shuts down and all outputs close.
2.6 Auxiliary Power Terminals
The auxiliary power supply can power accessories in the security system. A
fuseless circuit protects the auxiliary output against overload and shuts it
down if the current exceeds 1.1A. Auxiliary power will resume once the
overload condition has restored. Press and hold the AUX button for two
seconds to turn AUX power on and off.
2.7 Bell/Siren Output
The bell output supplies 12Vdc upon alarm and can support one 30-watt or
two 20-watt sirens. The bell output will automatically shut down if the
current exceeds 3A. If the load on the BELL terminals returns to normal
(3A), the control panel will re-instate power to the BELL terminals. Please
verify correct polarity.
For connection of self-contained bell/siren, see Figure 3 on page 3.
When the bell output is not used, the “Bell Absent” message appears in the
Trouble Display. To avoid this, connect a 1k
 resistor across the bell output. UL
Note: The keypads must be programmed to beep with all troubles.
2.8 Programmable Outputs
PGM1 to PGM4 are 100mA (max.) solid-
state relays with +/- trigger. PGM5 is a 5A/
28Vdc N.O./ N.C. relay output. They can be
set at either normally open or normally
closed. If the current draw on PGM1 to
PGM4 is to exceed the current output, we
recommend using a relay as shown in
Figure 1.
2.9 Keyswitch Connections
Connect the keyswitches to the keypad,
control panel, or Zone Expansion Module's
hardwired input terminals as shown in
Figure 2.
2.10 Access Control Connections
For all access control explanations and
connection drawings, refer to Access Control:

Bell/Siren
The sum of the current
drawn from the BELL and
AUX must be limited to
2.0A. Exceeding this limit will
overload the panel power supply
and lead to complete system
shutdown.
PLEASE NOTE: When powering up the EVO control panel, the panel will begin a module scan to verify if all the modules
connected to the panel are operational. The scanning process will take between 30 seconds and 3 minutes to complete
depending on the number of modules connected to the control panel. The module scan is complete when the LCD
keypad begins to show the partition status. Only after the module scan is complete will the control panel be fully
operational.
Connection for Self-Contained Bell/Siren
40VA transformer strongly recommended
The combus supports a maximum of 127 (EVO48)
or 254 (EVO192) modules. Although external power
supplies can be used to provide power to modules
connected far from the control panel, the total
distance of all runs of wire combined cannot
exceed 914m (3000ft). For example, if ten runs of
wire measuring 305m (1000ft) each are connected
to the control panel, the total distance would be
3048m (10, 000ft), which exceeds the system's
capacity.
Before adding any module to the control panel
make sure you shutdown the AUX output by
pressing and holding the AUX button for 3
seconds.

2.11 Calculating Power Requirements
1. Using Table 1, calculate the total number of milliamps (mA) required by each device, module, and accessory in the system. Please take into account
devices connected to the control panel’s PGM outputs. Since the BELL output has its own power supply, do not include the sirens connected to it in the
calculation.
2. If Grand Total is less than 700mA, go to step 3. If the value is greater, an external power supply is required (see Figure 5 on page 5) to provide the
additional power needed. Proceed with step 3 and refer to the example in Figure 4 on page 5.
3. Due to the degradation of a power signal over long distances, EACH length or run of wire in the system can support only a specific number of milliamps
(mA). Using Table 2, determine how many milliamps each length of wire can support. Please note that the total number of milliamps (mA) can never
surpass 700mA.

Figure 4: Sample Power Requirement Calculations
Do not use the same transformer for the control panel and the external power
supplies. Do not install modules more than 914m (3000ft) from the control panel.
2.12 Keypad Zone Connections
Every keypad, except Grafica, has one hardwire input terminal.
Even with the ATZ feature enabled in the control panel, only one device can be
connected to the keypad’s hardwired input terminal. Tamper is not recognized on
keypad zones. The keypad zone follows the control panel’s EOL definition.
The keypad communicates the status of the zone to the control panel via
the combus. The detection device is connected as shown in Figure 3 on
page 3.
Figure 5: External Power Supply Connections
2.13 Addressable Zone Connections
The control panel includes eight hardwired input terminals for use with
traditional hardwired (non-combus) door contacts, smoke detectors and/or
motion detectors.
The control panel also supports hardwire zone expansion modules. Figure
6shows single zone (ATZ disabled) hardwire input terminal connections
recognized by the Digiplex EVO system. For UL listed installations, use
EOL resistor part #2011002000.

Figure 6: Single Zone Input Connections 2.14 Double Zone Connections
Enabling the ATZ feature (see section 4.3) allows you to install two
detection devices per input terminal. Connect the devices as shown in
Figure 7. For UL listed Burglary System installations only, use EOL resistor
part #2011002000.
Figure 7: Double Zone Connections
2.15 Combus Connections
The 4-wire combus can support 127 (EVO48) or 254 (EVO192) modules.
Use star and/or daisy chain configuration. The total length of wire cannot
exceed 914m (3000ft).
Before connecting a module to the combus, remove AC and battery power from the
control panel.
2.15.1 Connecting the Combus in Noisy Environments
When installing the combus wires in proximity to high electrical
interferences or across separate buildings, use shielded cables:
Within the Same Building: Strip the outer jacket at one end of the
shielded cable to expose the shield and connect the shield to the control
panel ground (not the dialer ground), while leaving the shield at the other
end of the cable open (floating).

Across Separate Buildings: Strip the outer jacket at one end of the
shielded cable to expose the shield. In the same building as the control
panel, connect the exposed shield to any earth ground available, while
leaving the shield at the other end of the cable open (floating). The same
configuration applies for any subsequent building.
2.16 Fire Circuits
Assign the smoke detectors connected to the control panel or zone
expansion input terminals to a zone and define the zone's parameters as a
Fire Zone (see section 4.4.12 and section 4.4.13 on page 11).
2.16.1 Smoke Detector Installation (2-Wire)*
PGM1 can be defined as a 2-wire
smoke detector input (see section 12.6
on page 29). Connect the 2-wire smoke
detectors as shown in Figure 8. If a line
short occurs or the smoke detector
activates, whether the system is armed
or disarmed, the control panel will
generate an alarm. If the line is open,
the “Zone Fault” trouble indication
appears in the Trouble Display and the
report code is sent to the monitoring
station, if programmed.
*UL Note: Not to be used with UL Listed systems.
2.16.2 ESL CleanMe® Installation
Connect ESL smoke detectors like the standard smoke detectors. Avoid
connecting more than 20 ESL smoke detectors. When an CleanMe signal
is sent, the control panel will generate a Zone Fault trouble and may
transmit the Fire Loop report code to the monitoring station. The trouble will
be cleared if there is no CleanMe signal for 255 seconds. If an alarm
occurs, the trouble will be cleared until it is detected again.
2.16.3 Smoke Detector Installation (4-Wire)
Recommended: System Sensor model
2112/24D smoke detectors. Connect the
4-wire smoke detectors and a relay as
shown in Figure 9. To comply with UL955,
install the 4-wire smoke detectors with 18
gauge wire. If power is interrupted, the
relay causes the control panel to transmit
the Fire Loop Trouble report programmed
in section [2906].
To reset (unlatch), connect the smoke
detector’s negative (-) to a PGM. Then
program the PGM with the “Smoke
Detector Power Reset” activation event
(see section 12.1 on page 29; Event
Group #067, start # 004, end # 004) to
interrupt power to the smoke detector for
four seconds when the [CLEAR]and
[ENTER] keys are pressed and held for two
seconds.
If ATZ is enabled (see section 4.3 on page 10), do not use the extra input (doubled
zone).
Figure 10: Telephone Line Connection Examples
2.17 Telephone Line Connections
The telephone lines can be connected directly to the control panel or
through a CA38A or RJ31 as shown in Figure 10.
UL Note: Installer must verify line seizure after every installation
For TBR-21 compliance, please note the following:
1. The EVO can be connected to the telephone network via an RJ-11
connector.
2. The Maximum Dialing Attempts cannot exceed 15 attempts (page 25).
2.18 Built-in RTC
The RTC will save the EVO’s internal clock when both the AC and battery
power have been lost. The RTC uses a 3V lithium battery (CR2032) with a
battery life of 11 years. Change the battery as shown below:
Figure 11: Changing the RTC’s Battery
Reprogram the control panel’s clock after changing the battery.
Danger of explosion exists if the lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only
with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used
batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

16 Reference & Installation Manual
7 Arming and Disarming Options
7.1 Arming Follows Partition
(default = disabled) A partition can be set to follow the arming and
disarming status of one or more partitions.
7.2 Trouble Latch
SECTION [3033]: OPTION [6]
With the Trouble Latch feature disabled, when a trouble occurs and is
corrected, the trouble is automatically cleared and no longer displayed.
With the Trouble Latch feature enabled, the trouble will remain displayed
until it is manually cleared by the user. To clear the trouble, the user must
enter the trouble display and then exit the trouble display. For LCD and
LED keypads, press [CLEAR]to exit. For Grafica keypads, press the left
action key (Back) to exit.
Only troubles that have been corrected can be cleared. If a
trouble has not been corrected, it will continue to be displayed
even if the user tries to clear the trouble by using the method
described above.
7.3 Restrict Arming on Supervision Loss
SECTION [3034]: OPTION [4]
(default = disabled) When enabled, arming is restricted if a supervision
loss signal from the Magellan Wireless System MG-RTX3 is received.
7.4 Restrict Arming on Tamper
SECTION [3034]: OPTION [8]
(default = disabled) When enabled, the control panel prevents arming if it
detects a tamper on a zone or module (see section 8.5 on page 19).
Partitions will not arm until the Installer Code is entered and the tamper
trouble conditions are corrected.
7.5 Restrict Arming on AC Failure
SECTION [3035]: OPTION [1]
(default = disabled) When enabled, the control panel prevent arming if it
detects a loss of AC power.
7.6 Restrict Arming on Battery Failure
SECTION [3035]: OPTION [2]
(default = disabled) When enabled, the control panel prevents arming if it
detects a battery loss or if the battery voltage is less than 10.5V.
7.7 Restrict Arming on Bell or Auxiliary Failure
SECTION [3035]: OPTION [3]
(default = disabled) When enabled, the control panel prevents arming if:
• the bell or siren is disconnected
• the Bell Output has exceeded its current limits
• the Auxiliary Outputs have exceeded their current limits
7.8 Restrict Arming on TLM Failure
SECTION [3035]: OPTION [4]
(default = disabled) When enabled, the control panel can prevent arming if
it is unable to access the telephone line.
7.9 Restrict Arming on Module Troubles
SECTION [3035]: OPTION [5]
(default = disabled) When is enabled, the control panel uses the same
Restrict Arming options for the modules connected to the combus.
7.10 Timed Auto-Arming
(default = disabled) The control panel arms the selected partition every day
at the time set (see section 7.10.1). A 60-second Exit Delay (default value)
triggers before the partition arms. It can be cancelled or postponed by
entering a valid access code. If zones are open, the control panel arms the
partition and considers all open zones as temporarily bypassed (except
24hr. zones). The control panel transmits the Auto-Arming report code
programmed in section [3910]. The control panel will transmit the Late to
Close report code programmed in section [3912]. Enable option [1] in the
desired section:
7.10.1 Auto-Arm Timer
Enter the time when the partition should arm in the desired section:
7.10.2 Postpone Auto-Arming
(default = 000) It is possible to postpone auto-arming for a preset amount of
time by entering a valid user code during the exit delay. The delay is set by
entering a number between 001 and 255 in the appropriate section. That
number represents for how many increments of 15 minutes the arming will
be postponed.
7.11 No Movement Auto-Arming
(default = disabled) If no movement occurs in a partition for the specified
period, the control panel will automatically arm that partition. The Auto-
Arming Option determines the arming method (see section 7.12). The
control panel will transmit the No Movement report code programmed in
section [3913] upon arming. The control panel will always transmit the Late
to Close report code [3912]. Enable option [2] in the desired section:
7.11.1 No Movement Timer
(default = 000) Select the section corresponding to the desired partition and
program the time without movement necessary before the control panel will
arm and/or send the No Movement report code. If No Movement Auto-
Arming is disabled, the control panel can still send the No Movement report
code. Enter the time period (001 to 255 x 5 minutes, 000 = disabled) when
the partition should arm in the desired section:
7.11.2 No Movement Schedule
It is possible to program the No-movement arming option for each partition
to follow a schedule. These schedules, which function like access
schedules, will ensure that No-Movement arming only occurs during these
specified periods and not at any moment when there is no movement.
