INTRODUCTION
The Vigilante®II is a multipurpose panel mounted alarm annunciator. It
has 8 field selectable alarm sequences, including all common ISA
sequences. The alarm channels accept normally open, normally closed,
NPN open collector transistor, and logic level inputs. Three front panel
pushbuttons are used during sequence operation to silence the horn,
acknowledge the first out alarm, and reset cleared channels as required
by the sequences.
The Vigilante II has two SPDT relays that can be used for additional
external alarm indication, additional audible devices, or for process
control.
The isolated 24 VDC power supply available on 85-265 VAC models
can be used to power additional devices and external indicators.

QUICK SETUP GUIDE
The following overview details how to set up the annunciator for most
common uses.
Sequence Selection
The two most common sequences are ISA A and ISA F2A. Select the
sequence using the four-position switch on the rear of the unit above the
signal connector. For complete sequence details, see page 31.
ISA
A
ISA F2
A
NO/NC Inputs
Each input can be set for normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC)
contacts. Each input channel is programmed individually. The default
setting is for all inputs to be NO.
To set inputs to NC:
1. Press and hold ACK and RESET for 3 seconds until all LEDs
cycle.
2. Press ACK within 3 seconds of release. All LEDs will blink. If
ACK is not pressed within 3 seconds the unit will return to run
mode.
3. Press ACK again within 3 seconds of release. If ACK is not
pressed within 3 seconds the unit will return to run mode.
The LED for the channel being programmed will display brightly on or
off. All other channel indication LEDs will be at low intensity to indicate
programming mode.
4. Press the RESET pushbutton to turn LED 1 off for a NO input,
or on for a NC input for channel 1.
5. Press ACK to accept the input type and program channel 2.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all input channels.
7. Press and hold ACK for five seconds to return to normal
operation with the programmed input types.

Basic Connections
All connections are made to removable screw terminal connectors
located at the rear of the instrument. For complete connection
details, see page 13.
!
Use copper wire with 60°C or 60/75°C insulation for all
line voltage connections. Observe all safety regulations.
Electrical wiring should be performed in accordance with
all applicable national, state, and local codes to prevent
damage to the instrument and ensure personnel safety.
Connector Labeling
The connectors label, affixed to the instrument, shows the location of all
connectors available with requested configuration. See Figure 2, page
13. Power Connections
Power connections are made to a two-terminal connector labeled
POWER. The instrument will operate regardless of DC polarity
connection. The + and - symbols are only a suggested wiring convention.
Signal Connections
Input signal connections are made to a 14-terminal connector at
terminals labeled INPUT CHANNELS. The COM (common) terminal is
the return for all input channels.
Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) Switches
All channels are initially set for normally open contacts. Each contact is
wired across an input channel and common.
Relays and 24 V Output Connections
Relay connections are made to a six-terminal connector labeled
RELAY1, RELAY2. The COM (common) terminals of the relays should
not be confused with the COM (common) terminal of the signal
connector. The 24 VDC output is available at the connector labeled 24V
OUT, next to the relays connector.
Additional Information
For additional setup and wiring information, please see the complete
details further in this manual.

INSTALLATION
There is no need to remove the instrument from its case to
complete the installation, wiring, and setup.
Unpacking
Remove the instrument from box. Inspect the packaging and
contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier.
If any part is missing or the unit malfunctions, please contact
your supplier or the factory for assistance.
Panel Mounting
Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN vertical panel cutout – 1.772" x 3.622”
(45 mm x 92 mm). Refer to Figure 1 for more details.
Clearance: allow at least 4" (102 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off
the two screws so that there is ¼" (6.4 mm) or less through the
bracket. Slide the bracket toward the front of the case and remove).
Insert the unit into the panel cutout.
Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel.
To achieve a proper seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws
evenly until the front is snug to the panel along its short side. DO
NOT OVER TIGHTEN, as the rear of the panel may be damaged.

Switching Inductive Loads
The use of suppressors (snubbers) is strongly recommended when switching
inductive loads to prevent disrupting the microprocessor’s operation. The
suppressors also prolong the life of the relay contacts. Suppression can be
obtained with resistor-capacitor (RC) networks assembled by the user or
purchased as complete assemblies. Refer to the following circuits for RC network

Notes:
1. Use capacitors rated for 250 VAC.
2. RC networks may affect load release time of solenoid loads. Check to
confirm proper operation.

SETUP AND PROGRAMMING
Overview
There are no jumpers involved in the setup process of the annunciator.
The sequence selector switch, located on the rear of the annunciator
above the signal connector must be set accordingly for annunciator
sequence desired.
Normally open or normally closed input setup, relay fail-safe, and
additional sequence options are programmed with the front panel
pushbuttons.
After power and signal connections have been completed and verified,
and the sequence selector switch has been set appropriately, apply
power to the annunciator.

Full Function Test
Press and hold SILENCE and ACK for 5 seconds to perform a function
test. This tests the sequence operation and hardware by simulating
alarm inputs that are cleared in the normal sequence progression.
During the function test, all channels enter a simulated alarm state for 3
seconds. All LEDs, pushbuttons, relays, and the audible alarm will
follow the selected sequence as if the simulated alarm inputs were real.
After 3 seconds, the alarms may be cleared as normal for the selected
sequence.
Multiple Unit First-Out Indication
If multiple Vigilante II annunciators are connected for multiple unit
shared first-out indication (see page 17), only one input from all
connected devices will display as a first-out alarm.
Each individual annunciator will acknowledge and reset the channels on
that unit using the pushbuttons on that unit, and independent of all other
connected units. Only the unit displaying the first-out will sound the
audible alarm.
It is recommended that all connected units be set for the same first-out
sequence.
