ADEMCO 269R/270R
Holdup Switch
INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The ADEMCO 269R/270R Holdup Switch (Figure 1) is a finger-
operated switch for activating the holdup signal at the control
and/or any other security application. The 269R adds a protective
steel cover. The Holdup Switch is typically mounted under a
counter for inconspicuous operation. The device comes standard as
a latching type switch that is easily converted to a non-latching
type.
If the switch is used as a latching type switch, the supplied reset
key is used to reset the device. Additional reset keys may be
obtained separately by ordering ADEMCO part number K4563.
PROGRAMMING
For Honeywell controls, program the unit like any other zone,
according to the control’s installation and setup guide. Enter the
following information when prompted for in zone programming:
“ZONE TYPE” = “06”
“INPUT TYPE” = “01”
For other manufacture controls, refer to the controls instructions
for specific programming instructions.
MOUNTING
Refer to the steps and figures that follow for typical mounting
installation. If required, convert the latching device to a non-
latching device as shown in figure 2.
1. Run the wiring from the control panel to the device, through
the opening in the case back as shown in Figure 3.
2. Wire the device for a normally closed or a normally open loop
with no EOL resistor or for a normally-closed or a normally
open loop with an EOL resistor as shown in figure 3, detail A
and B, respectively. Where Form C wiring is required,
providing full supervision of the loop refer to figure 3, detail C.
3. Secure the cover to the case with two screws (No. 6 x 7/8) as
shown in figure 1. Note the cover screws are noticeably
shorter than the mounting screws. Be sure to use the correct
holes. The holes opposite these are used to secure the device to
the counter.
IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the case do not
over tighten the cover screws.
4. Peel the backing from the double stick tape strips on the back
of the device and position the device in its mounting location.
IMPORTANT: The double stick tape is provided to
temporarily hold the assembly in place while drilling
the pilot holes. The device must be permanently
mounted with the screws supplied.
5. Using the case as a drill template, drill a 1/16” diameter pilot
hole at the two case mounting holes (Figure 1).
6. Secure the assembled case with the protective cover (if
required) to the counter with two screws (No. 6 x 1-3/4)
supplied. (Figure 4).
