1 Overview alarm transmission device TAS-Link III
1.1 Introduction
Thank you for choosing the alarm transmission device TAS-Link III. The TAS-Link III is based on the assembly
group TLW 1+. Thanks to its intelligent modular setup the TAS-Link III transmission device (TD) can be put to-
gether/modified for every purpose of application individually.
By applying numerous path modules the transmission paths can be enhanced with the GPRS, UMTS,GSM,PSTN
or ISDN path if necessary. Additionally, an own DSL modem with emergency power supply is available for the IP
path.
On top of that, 3 extension modules are available which are able to expand the functionality arbitrarily. Here it can
be selected between a fire alarm module (XBT 1), for the activation of TF/MDL main fire detectors or directly to the
fire alarm centre, a line extension module (XKT 1), for the activation of 8 additional inputs and2 outputs,and arelay
module (XRT 1). All in all it is possible to apply up to 15 extension modules per TD in arbitrary combinations.
1.2 Transmission paths/modules/modes/protocols
Currently, the TAS-Link III supports the transmission paths, transmission modes and protocols displayed in the

1.5 Housing
The alarm transmission device TAS-Link III can be used, as you already got to know insection1.1,veryflexiblydue
to its modular setup. So the requirements concerning housings, power supply units and batteries are correspond-
ingly diverse.
1.5.1 System housing
All hardware components are located in system housings.Depending on the equipment asmallerora biggerhous-
ing is necessary. Standard housings are the G4 and the G4+ housings. As standard, the basic assembly group
TLW1+ incl.path and extension modules as well as the power supply unit and thebatteryarelocated inthe housing
(except G2).

3.2 Mains connection
3.2.1 General important advice
Please read the following important advice carefully before starting with the assembly works:
The mains connection must only be made by electrically certified and trained personnel!
All assembly works have to be executed without operating and battery voltage!
Discharge yourself before the beginning of the assembly works by touching earthed metal parts to avoid
damages at semiconductor devices by electrostatic discharge (ESD)!
All power supply units may only be connected with a protective conductor connection (PE)!
The mains cable has to be secured at the terminal clamps by a strain relief!
All in the system housing incoming reporting cables have to be earthed via the housing!
Disconnect device : a disconnect device including a 5A protection should be installed in the electricalcabi-
net in order to disconnect the equipment from the mains supply (e.g. for maintenance purpose…). Please
note that this disconnect device should have a contact separation of at least 3mm,andprovide with differn-
tiel protection of 30mA.
3.2.2 Power supply unit C-Tec NT 560-12/E
Installation cable
For a correct installation of the 230 V AC mains cable the sheated cable types NYM-J 3x1,5 or 2,5 have to be
used.

4.4 Inputs on basic assembly group
Short circuit line (contact)
Here a report is triggered by opening the short circuit line.
10kΩ /2k7Ω
This means that a report is triggered by a change of resistance of +/- 40%. Hereby a 10kΩ/2k7Ω resistor has to be
inserted at the assignment at the detector.
Sabotage monitored
Idle state 10 kΩ +/-40%;
Triggering state 2k7 Ω +/-40%;
Sabotage state all resistance values out of the defined area.
Advice!
All the reporting cables incoming in the system housing have to be earthed via the housing.

19
4.5 Switching outputs on the basic assembly group
4.5.1 OUT1/2
These switching outputs serve for the switching of a signal e.g. as a remote effect signal or as switching function at
the line release. The outputs are potential-free with optocouplers. Here the polarity has to be considered!
4.5.2 SUM
The sum fault port is potential-free with bidirectional optocouplers. In the idle state it is connected through. I fit is
released, e.g. by a voltage malfunction, path malfunction etc. (can be configured) it is opened.
4.5.3 Negative acknowledgement
4.5.3.1.1 Negative
This output is closed in idle state (≤1kΩ). If a report cannot be transmitted for a period of time of 240 seconds, the
output is opened for ≥1 second (≥500kΩ). The acknowledgment output is potential-free with optocouplers.
4.5.3.1.2 Positive
This output is closed in idle state. The output „negative acknowledgement can display the function „positive ac-
knowledgement if configured. If a report is transmitted, the output is opened for ca. 1 second.
ATTENTION!
Do not charge the potential-free optorelays with more than 100mA at 30V.
