ADS 1200
Audio, data and contact closure multiplexers for fiber-optic links
USER MANUAL
1. General description
ADS 1200 systems offer combined full duplex
transmission of data, audio and contact closure
signals, all independent, over one or two multimode or
single-mode optical fibers (TRA/TRB or TRX
respectively, see figures 1a, 1b). For technical
specifications, consult section 5.
Two 4-wire audio channels and two contact closure
channels are available on the topmost pair of modular
connectors (port 1 and port 2). The data section
comprises two RS-485/RS-422 (Manchester and
biphase compatible) and two RS-232 channels, on the
two lower modular connectors.
Internal dip switches control the configuration (2/4
wiring and type; default is 4-wire RS-485) of the RS-
4xx interfaces. If necessary, the RS-485 interfaces can
be adapted to use biasing; by default, the data
interfaces are transparent. By removing a jumper and
output rewiring, port D1 can be used for digital
current loop. Audio input impedance is jumper
selectable. The contact closure outputs are potential-
free and open on synchronisation failure.
LEDs indicate power and local as well as remote sync
status (see section 2), and also monitor data I/O.
The 7TE modules will slot into the backplanes of
TKH Security’s MC 10 or MC 11 power supply
cabinets. Stand-alone models (/SA option, see
supplementary manual) needs an external 12 Vdc
power supply.

3. Configuration and installation
3a) Configuration
Interface selection and configuration are performed
using switches and jumpers on the circuit boards of
the ADS 1200 units. To access these elements, each
unit must be opened by taking out the two front
panel Phillips head screws indicated in figure 1 and
partially sliding out the circuit board (shown in
figure 2).
An ADS 1200 data board has two 8-fold (S1, S2)
and one 4-fold (S3) dip switch blocks. The first
switch of each block and the ON positions are also
indicated in figure 2.
The jumper-pin groups A and B control audio input
impedance of A1 and A2, respectively; jumper C
regulates the current loop impedance of one of the
RS-485 data outputs (see below).
Data interface selection: the 4 dip switches in bank
S3 determine the RS-4xx interface type available
on ports D1 and D3 as per table 2.

TRB, one-fiber), and TRX (right, two-fibers)

Table 2. Choosing RS-485 interface types
using dip switch bank S3
Two-wire RS-485 mode uses the input terminals for
I/O. In older ADS/VAD units, for two-wire mode the
+ in and + out needed to be combined, as well as - in
and - out; old and new units can be used together with
the old-style cable layout.
Current loop output: The RS-485 output impedance
of port D1 can be made suitable for digital 20 mA
current loop ('TTY') applications by pulling a 2-pin
jumper (C2-3) from the board, thus inserting a resistor
into the non-inverting data line. The jumper may be
put on pins C1-2 to save it. Current loop I/O should
use only non-inverting lines and signal ground (see
figure 3); the interface type should be set to RS-485
(4-w). Input signal voltage on A-GND (IN+-GND)
should be at least 4V.
RS-485 line biasing: In most cases, the RS-485 data
interface works with the default settings. If, however,
data line biasing is called for by other equipment
connected to the ADS 1200, biasing impedances may
need to be applied and dwell times set. With the other
dip switches configured for RS-485 mode, the
eightfold switch banks S1 (for interface D1) and S2
(for interface D3) on the ADS 1200 circuit boards
(figure 2) control attachment of two bias impedance
resistors to both input and inverting input (table 3
below).

8 ON

Table 3. Choosing bias resistances, dwell times and line
termination for interfaces D1 and D3
Note that the 'soft zero' biasing adaptation method
used ties the inverting ('negative') input to the
higher voltage, while the biasing resistor of the
normal input is tied to signal ground. This provides
a well-defined bus state when no driver is active.
The first three dip switches of the banks S1 and S2
on the circuit boards (figure 3) are used to
configure the tristate-sensing/dwell timing of
interface D1 and D3, respectively, if biasing of
RS-485 lines is used, to help indicate the
conclusion of transmission (table 3). Dwell time is
approximately 10*bit length or slightly longer.

*) default, hardware tri-state detect (1V differential sense,
not to be used together with line-biasing)
**) logic high in the data directly drives the output enable
(i.e. no delay). This setting is especially suitable for
very low data rates.
Table 4. Dip switch settings for unbiased and biased
RS-485 interfacing. Settings 1-7 all need bias resistors
to define zero.
Depending on the actual data rate, switches 1-3 of
block S1 and S2 should then be set as per table 4
(read the notes below). Default is all three switches
off, i.e. hardware tristate sensing.
Notes on dwell times:
- When in doubt about which of two dwell times to
select, use the longer of the two.
- Settings 1-7 only work if the lines are biased to a
‘soft zero’.
- The serial receiver dwell timing circuitry (re)starts
a timer on the rising edges of input data from the
copper side, at the same time sending an output

enable signal to the serial data transmitter on the other
side of the optical link. When the timer is allowed to
run out (no more rising edges, meaning no more data),
this output will get no enable signals anymore and will
go into tristate, freeing up its line.
- Different dwell times may be used within the system.
Mixing hardware-tristate-detect onone side and dwell-
time on the other side is also feasible.
- The setting of tristate/dwell time in a unit does affect
the data fed into that unit, i.e. the way data is output at
the remote unit.
RS-485 line termination: Line termination impedance
of interfaces D1 and D3 may be set to low (120 )
using dip switch 6 of bank S1 and S2, respectively
(table 3). Default is high impedance.
Audio port impedance: Audio input impedance in the
ADS 1200 can be set by moving jumpers A (for audio
interface A1) and/or B (for interface A2) on the upper
circuit board (fig. 2). A jumper on pins 1-2 selects
high impedance for that port (default); shorting pins 2
and 3 lowers the audio input impedance to 600 Ohms.
3b) Installation
Provide the units with power and connect appropriate
cabling (twisted pair for long electrical links).
Through-connecting the signal ground lines is
recommended. If SYNC problems occur after
powering up, check the optical link first.
4. Connector pin assignments
The electrical port pin assignments (table 5) are
such that similar ports of different units may be
connected back to back with reversed cable
(RS-232 interfaces excepted). See figure 5 for the
