12V Auxiliary Supply Outputs (12V and S12V)

12V and GND supply 12V to devices which require power e.g.

movement detectors. The S12V terminal provides 12V to external

devices which require resetting when activated, e.g. smoke detectors.

The S12V supply is switched off for 5 seconds whenever the system is

disarmed. Total continuous current from these and the Output 12V

terminals should not exceed 1 Amp. These terminals are current limited

by resettable fuses.

Arming Response

There is now an Arming response (Location 1850) which allows shock

detectors to be reset during the exiting procedure instead of at the

point that the system is Disarmed (which can reset the detector before

the culprit has been identified). You can feed such detectors via a relay

which is normally closed and pulse the output feeding the relay using a

pulsed output responses (eg. 130,20,8 = pulse OP8 for 1 second),via

the Arming Response in Location 1850.

False Alarm on Disarming

This may be caused by connecting PIRs or Keypads to the S12V output

instead of the 12V terminals. S12V and 12V share the same terminal

block. S12V is meant for detectors which need to be reset on

disarming, and is switched off for 5 seconds when the system is

disarmed. PIRs programmed as 24 hour zones which have their supply

connected to S12V will activate when disarmed. Also Keypads which are

powered from S12V will report ”Communication Failure”.

(( Do not feed PIRs set as 24 hour zones from the S12V supply.

(( For UL installations, the total current from Alarm output

terminals, outputs and 12v terminals should not exceed 500
