Security Panel Lamp Starter Kit
Easily Connect Simply Automated Lighting to Any Alarm Panel with Low Voltage or Contact
Output Capability. (PN: DKIT-03SP) includes 2 Lamp Modules and 1 I/O Module with 3 inputs/2
outputs.
Getting Started
Section 1: Very Important Pre-Installation Notes
•The security panel will need one or more low voltage or contact closure outputs to
interface with the I/O Module.
•Your home should be no more than 2500 square feet and have only one breaker panel.
A phase coupler is required in some home installations. See Section 5 for more
information.
•Not intended for use in multi-dwelling (condo, apartment, duplex) units.
Section 2: Installation of the Lamp Modules and I/O Module
Section 2.a. Installation of the Lamp Modules
Locate 2 lamps you would like to turn ON/OFF. Plug a lamp module into a wall outlet, then plug-
in a lamp into the socket on the bottom of the lamp module. Turn the lamp ON using the lamp’s
ON/OFF switch. Repeat this process for second lamp module. You're done with the installation
process! Please refer to the User Guide or see http://simply-automated.com/documents/452-
0112-0201_RevC_UML-E-W_UserGuide_090512.pdf.

Important note: each lamp module has a specific device ID #. You can find the device ID # on
the box the lamp module came packaged in and also on the back of each lamp module. One
lamp module has device ID #14 and the other has device ID #15. This is important information, it
relates to operation with the Input/Output Module and Pocket Programmer (sold separately).
Section 2.b. Installation of the I/O Module
Locate a 110 VAC power receptacle in (or near) the alarm panel and plug-in the I/O Module. The
I/O Module has 3 pre-configured inputs (3 low voltage 4-5VAC/DC or 2 contact closure) to turn
on/off the 2 lamp modules. Refer to User Guide in box the I/O Module came packaged in or see
http://simply-automated.com/documents/452-0003-0001_RevE_UMI_UserGuide_090512.pdf.
The discrete low voltage or contact closure trigger outputs of the security panel need to be
connected to the proper terminals of the I/O Module.
Input 1: Low Voltage (only), terminals 6 and 7
Turns on/off first lamp module (#14)
Input 2: Contact, terminals 9 and 10
OR
Input 2: Low Voltage, terminals 8 and 9
Turns blinking on/off for all lamp modules
Input 3: Contact, terminals 15 and 16
OR
Input 3: Low Voltage, terminals 14 and 15
Turns on/off all lamp modules
Note: Low voltage inputs are differential (i.e.
positive or negative polarity does not matter).
Pre-Configured Input 1: Low voltage input. Turns on first lamp module (#14) when trigger is
enabled. Turns off first lamp module when trigger is disabled. Used for delay entry/exit (lights on
for entry, off for exit), arm/disarm acknowledgement, door strike or motion sensor interface.
Installer needs to program security panel for each trigger interface. Low voltage wires (provide 0
Volt ‘off‘ or 4-5 Volt ‘on’ trigger) from security panel connect to input terminals 6/7 of the I/O
Module.
Pre-Configured Input 2: Low voltage or contact closure input. Turns on both lights and flashes
when triggered is enabled. Turns off lights and stops flashing lamp modules when trigger is
disabled. Used for fire, intrusion or panic alarms. Installer needs to program security panel for
alarm type and trigger. Low voltage wires (provide 0 Volt ‘off’ or 4-5 Volt ‘on’ trigger) from
security panel connect to input terminals 8/9, or contact closure wires (provide open – ‘off’ or
closed – ‘on’ trigger) connect to input terminals 9/10 of the I/O module.
Pre-Configured Input 3: Low voltage or contact closure input. Turns on both lights when trigger is
enabled. Turns off both lights when trigger is disabled. Used for fire, intrusion or panic alarms.
Installer needs to program security panel for alarm type and trigger. Low voltage wires (provide 0
Volt ‘off’ or 4-5 Volt ‘on’ trigger) from security panel connect to input terminals 14/15, or contact
closure wires (provide open – ‘off’ or closed – ‘on’ trigger) connect to input terminals 15/16 of the
I/O Module.

Testing the I/O Module and 2 lamp modules:
•Input 1: Apply a low voltage source (i.e., 9V DC battery) to input terminals 6/7 of the I/O
Module to turn on first lamp module (#14). Disconnect battery to turn off lamp module.
•Input 2: Apply a low voltage source (i.e., 9V DC battery) to input terminals 8/9 of the I/O
Module to flash both lamp modules. For contact closure, apply input (i.e., short circuit with
#18 wire) to input terminals 9/10 of the I/O Module. Remove low voltage source, or contact
closure source to turn off both lamp modules.
•Input 3: Apply a low voltage source (i.e., 9V DC battery) to input terminals 14/15 of the I/O
Module to turn on both lamp modules. For contact closure, apply input (e.g. short circuit with
#18 wire) to input terminals 15/16 of the I/O Module. Remove the low-voltage or contact
closure source to turn off both lamp modules.
Important Note: You will hear a soft buzz when the I/O Module is transmitting a signal to the
lamp modules. If you hear a buzz, but one or both of the lamp modules do not turn on/off, the
lamp's switch may be in the off position. Go to the lamp and turn on using the lamp's on/off
switch. If the lamp module still does not turn on/off, see Section 5, Phase Coupler.
Section 3: Adding Additional Dimmers and Lamp Modules
Simply Automated Pre-Configured SimplySmart
TM
Series offers simple-n-easy expansion
capability. Add up to two additional dimmers or lamp modules to the Security Panel Lamp
Module Starter Kit. Fully compatible accessories will interface with the I/O Module and your
security panel out of the box! Each accessory dimmer or lamp module added will automatically
blink on/off when input 2 of the I/O Module is triggered by the security panel, will go on/off when
input 3 is triggered.

Section 5: Using the Pocket Programmer (sold separately)
If you plan to do multiple installations, we highly recommend you purchase a
Pocket Programmer (Model # UPP-20). The Pocket Programmer is a very
powerful and simple tool for the dealer or installer.
1. Network ID. Each device in the pre-configured series has the same network
ID (250). The Pocket Programmer can be used to change the network ID in the
pre-configured series to provide a unique ID for each installation, an important
security feature. This will also prevent potential 'cross-chatter' with a neighbor’s
lighting system.
2. Links. Each input has a defined link. Input 1 has been assigned link 66
(on/off for one device), Input 2 has been assigned link 65 (blinking on/off for all devices), Input 3
has been assigned link 64 (on/off for all devices). All pre-configured accessory dimmers and
lamp modules will automatically work with Inputs 2 and 3.
3. Testing Signal Strength and Noise. In some cases, there may be noise (interference) issues
on the powerline from other electrical devices in the home that might interfere with the operation
of the lighting system. You can quickly test for any noise on your system by doing a noise check.
4. Computer Interface Module. The Pocket Programmer can be used as a computer interface
module with your PC using a serial connection. With UPStart software (available at
http://www.simply-automated.com/products/sa_upstart.htm), you have a powerful tool for custom
installations.
To learn more about the Pocket Programmer and how it can be used go to http://www.simply-
automated.com/products/sa_UPP.htm
Section 6: In Case of a Problem
Phone: [phone] Ext..138 Monday-Friday 8AM-5PM (Pacific Time) for assistance.
Phase Coupler: If you have tested the lamp modules, they work, but the I/O Module does not
turn on all the lamp modules, the circuits in your home may be out of phase. All homes have a
220V feed to the main panel box, where the 220V is separated into 110V in two phases, an A and
B. You will need to install a phase coupler, see http://simply-
automated.com/products/sa_zpc.htm for more details.
