OPERATION
Operational of BOWS is controlled by the programmable configuration held within the T-Gen2. On leaving the factory the
T-Gen2 is programmed with the BOWS configuration.
This sets up the T-Gen2 with the Grade 3 User Interface, the ALARM input to trigger AS 4428.16 evacuate tones and
message, the AIE input as an EXT PSU Fault (wired from the PSU), AUDIO IN 1 as always enabled background music,
and GP1 as an input to activate AUDIO IN 2 on demand (e.g., to enable an external all-area paging microphone).
SmartConfig will be required to program a specific configuration if, for example, 100V Switching Modules are added,
extra input functionality is wanted, area paging is required, or a Slave T-Gen2 is added.
Further details for configuring/wiring the T-Gen2 are contained in LT0667, and in the SmartConfig on-line help file for
preparing a custom configuration for the T-Gen2.

LT0676 Issue 1.00 6 December 2017 Page 4 of 8
Figure 3 –18U Cabinet Cable Knockouts
To prevent water entering the cabinets, seal unused knockouts and any top cable entries. Where possible, use bottom
cable entry with cables going down 100 mm below the cabinet before rising.
Mains Wiring
The BOWS needs to be supplied with a current-limited mains feed (e.g., via a circuit breaker) direct from a main
switchboard (refer AS 3000).
The General Purpose Outlet (GPO) must be wired by a suitably qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT: The factory-fitted earth loom under the GPO mounting block must be wired to the earth terminal of the
GPO in order to correctly earth the BOWS cabinet.
Battery Wiring
The 8U cabinet has space for a pair of 12V 17Ah batteries, the 18U cabinet has space for a pair of 12V 75Ah batteries.
The BOWS panels are supplied with a red battery lead for joining the neg(-) terminal on the 1st battery to the pos(+) on
the 2nd battery, and the screws, washers and nuts required for attaching the leads to the batteries.
Figure 4 - Battery Wiring
Factory Wiring
The PSU 24V output is wired to the T-Gen2 +24V terminals and the PSU Charger Flt- signal is wired to the A/I/E- input.
The default BOWS configuration for T-Gen2 sets the A/I/E- input as External PSU Fault, allowing a PSU fault to signal
via the T-Gen2.
The User Interface and microphone are connected to the T-Gen2 QBus connector J32 and PA MIC Connector J9
respectively.
T-Gen2 Field Wiring
Refer to the T-Gen2 Installation and Operating Instructions (LT0667) included with the BOWS for details on connecting

100V Switching Module Field Wiring
Refer to the 100V Switching Module Installation Instructions (LT0668) for details on fitting and wiring this optional
module.
100V Splitter Module Field Wiring
Refer to the 100V Splitter Module Installation Instructions (LT0671) for details on fitting and wiring this optional module.
Expansion T-Gen2
Fit the expansion T-Gen2 as per the instructions in LT0667. Connect 24V from the master T-Gen2 to the expansion
T-Gen2 module, using red/black power wires.
Using the supplied RJ45 cable, connect the master T-Gen2 QBus OUT connector (J28) to the expansion T-Gen2 QBus
IN connector (J27).
Configure the expansion T-Gen2 with the Slave configuration and address 1 (refer to LT0667 for instructions).
Re-configure the master T-Gen2 to include a Slave T-Gen at address 1 using SmartConfig.
Paging
The BOWS can be configured for area paging using FP1117 100V Switching Modules and the Paging buttons on the
User Interface, or an external paging console. Refer to the T-Gen2 Installation & Wiring Instructions LT0667 for details.
PSU Rating
The BOWS is supplied with a 5A (FP1136) or 10A (FP1137) maximum current PSU. This limits the load that can be
connected to the T-Gen2 units, as AS 1670.1:2015 requires the PSU to be able to supply the full alarm load without any
batteries connected.
Figure 5 shows the 100V load that can be connected to the FP1136 BOWS with 1 and 2 T-Gen 60 units and varying
strobe currents.
Basically the FP1136 PSU can support:
1 x T-Gen 60 @ 60W load with up to 2A strobe load.
2 x T-Gen 60 @ 50W load each with no strobe load, decreasing to a combined 20W load with a total of 4A
strobe load.

LT0676 Issue 1.00 6 December 2017 Page 6 of 8
Figure 6 shows the 100V load that can be connected to the FP1137 BOWS with 1 and 2 T-Gen 120 units and varying
strobe currents.
Basically the FP1137 10A PSU will support:
1 x T-Gen 120 @ 120W load with up to 2A strobe current
2 x T-Gen 120 @ 100W load each with no strobe current, decreasing to a combined 120W load with a total
strobe current of 4A.
Figure 6 –FP1137 T-Gen2 100V Load vs Strobe Current
Battery Capacity
For simplicity the required battery capacity has been calculated as follows.

24 AHr
This provides 24 hour standby operation with the T-Gen2 in the audio-enabled state, plus 30 minutes in alarm at the full
load supported by that BOWS unit. There is reserve capacity to power one 100V Switching or 100V Splitter Module as
well.
