Notices
FCC Part 15 Information to the User
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by GE Interlogix can void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Part 15 Class B
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the affected equipment and the panel receiver to separate outlets, on different branch circuits.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
ACTA Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. Located on this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration num-
ber and the ringer equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company.
FCC Part 68 Registration No. B4ZUSA-25644-AL-E
The REN is used to determine the maximum number of devices that may be connected to your telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in
devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of all device RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of
devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the
REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal
point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and require-
ments as adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compliant modular
jack that is also compliant. See the Installation Instructions for details.
Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment
(telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do so, alarm dialing equipment must be connected to a properly
installed RJ31X jack that is electrically in series and ahead of all other equipment attached to the same telephone line. Proper installation is depicted in the fol-
lowing diagram. If you have any questions concerning these instructions, consult your local telephone company or a qualified installer about installing an RJ31X
jack and alarm dialing equipment for you.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, you will be notified in
advance. When advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. You will be
given advance notice in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact the company that installed the equipment for service and/or repair information. The telephone com-
pany may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs

upon dialing the central station/pager number. The panel can also be programmed to check the
phone line voltage automatically.
Supervised Wireless Siren
Supervised Wireless Sirens plug into any standard electrical outlet and produce status and alarm
sounds. The panel sends signals to the siren through the Power Line Carrier Card and Line Car-
rier Power Transformer, through the AC electrical wiring.
The siren has a built-in transmitter that is used for supervising with the panel. With the siren
transmitter learned into panel memory (panels with receivers), the siren can notify the panel if it
is unplugged, stops receiving panel signals, or has a low backup battery.

Determine the Panel Location
Before permanently mounting the panel, determine panel location using the following guidelines:
• Centrally locate the panel with relation to detection devices whenever possible, to help
reduce wire run lengths and labor.
• Locate the panel where the temperature will not exceed 120°F (49°C) or fall below 32°F
(0°C).
• Avoid running wires parallel with electrical wiring or fixtures such as fluorescent lighting, to
prevent wire runs from picking up electrical noise.
• Mount the panel at a comfortable working height (about 45 to 55 inches from the floor to the
bottom of the panel, as shown in Figure 1).
Figure 1. Determining Panel Location
• Leave space to the left and right of the panel for wiring, phone jack, and mounting optional
modules.
• For wireless panels or hardwire panels that include a SuperBus 2000 RF Receiver, allow at
least 9 inches above the panel cabinet for antennas.
• Allow at least 24 inches in front of the panel to open the panel door.
Total System Power and Wire Length Guidelines
Power
The panel can supply up to 1 amp (1,000 mA) when powered by the 24 VAC, 30 VA transformer
or up to 2 amps (2,000 mA) when powered by the 24 VAC, 50 VA transformer for system
devices.
Wire Length
The total system wire length allowed can vary depending on devices powered by the panel, the
wire length between devices and the panel, and the combined wire length of all devices.

Note
The panel comes with fac-
tory programmed onboard
hardwire zones. Install
2k-ohm, end of line (EOL)
resistors on all unused fac-
tory programmed onboard
hardwire zones. If you don’t
want to install EOL resistors,
delete any unused zones
from memory. See Table 8
for onboard hardwire zone
factory programming.
Connecting Detection Devices to Panel Zone Inputs
Zone inputs 1 through 8 are supervised using included 2k-ohm, end-of-line resistors at the last
device on each circuit. All eight zones accept either normally open (N/O) or normally closed (N/
C) detection devices.
Connecting Intrusion Detection Devices
Figure 9 shows the typical wiring for N/C and N/O door/window intrusion detection and the typ-
ical wiring for a Detection Systems model DS922 (part no. 13-082) motion detector. The mini-
mum available panel voltage for hardwired PIR motion detectors is 8.5 VDC (9.5 VDC for UL
listed installations).
Note
When using 2-wire smoke detectors on zone 8, the Two-Wire Smoke setting (in program mode) must be
turned on before entering the LEARN SENSORS menu. See ONBOARD OPTIONS—INPUTS in the section

Figure 10. Connecting 2 and 4-Wire Smoke Detectors to the Panel
Connecting 4-Wire Smoke Detectors
Zone input 8 can be used with 4-wire smoke detectors that latch and remain in the alarm state
until power is removed, then restored to the detector. The panel provides this power interruption
from terminal 23 (2-wire smoke power +), provided that zone 8 is learned into sensor group 26
(fire).
Note
Zone 8 must be learned into
sensor group 26 (fire) for
connected smoke detectors
to reset after canceling a fire
alarm.
Table 5 describes the minimum available panel power. Use only 4-wire smoke detectors that
operate at these power limits. Connect up to five Sentrol (ESL) model 449AT (part no. 13-360)
smoke detectors to panel power and zone 8 input as shown in Figure 10.
Use only the 2-wire smoke detector models described above. Alarm signals from other
detectors may not be processed correctly if the panel has lost AC power and is operating
only from the backup battery.

Output 1
Onboard output 1 (OUT 1—terminal 9) is an open-collector (switched path-to-ground), program-
mable output that can handle a maximum of 200 mA current sink. The default setting (01614)
activates the output 15 seconds after a police or fire alarm condition occurs. This allows you to
connect a piezo siren without changing the output configuration number in programming. This
output is typically used for exterior siren application.
Output 2
Onboard output 2 (OUT 2—terminal 10) is an open-collector (switched path-to-ground), pro-
grammable output that can handle a maximum of 200 mA current sink. The default setting
(01710) activates the output for status and alarm tones, allowing for a piezo siren connection
without changing the output configuration number. It is typically used for interior siren applica-
tion.
For more information on output configuration numbers, see “Onboard Options Menu”.
Note
Piezo siren connections to
terminal 10 require a 2k
resistor that can be located
at the panel, since it does
not supervise the circuit. If
using an external power
supply instead of panel ter-
minal 4, the supply voltage
must be limited to 9.5 VDC
maximum and the negative
