LINKS Answer
When using the LINKS 1000 cellular communicator, any main
board zone may be configured for LINKS Answer.
A zone configured for LINKS Answer allows downloading to be
performed in the event of phone line failure. When the LINKS
receives a phone call, it will activate the RING terminal on the
LINKS circuit board. The zone programmed as LINKS Answer
always requires a single EOL resistor (5600Ω).
The LINKS Answer zone must be wired according to the
accompanying diagram.
The LINKS Answer zone is only required for
downloading to the panel via the LINKS.
Keypad zones cannot be used for LINKS Supervi-
sory or LINKS Answer.
2.12 Keypad Zones
Keypads with zone inputs can be connected to devices such as
door contacts. This saves you from running wires back to the
control panel for every device.
To install the keypad, open the keypad plastic by removing the
screw at the bottom of the unit. Locate the five terminals on the
keypad circuit board. Connect the four Keybus wires from the
control panel: the red wire to R, the black to B, the yellow to Y
and the green to G.
To connect the zone, run one wire to the Z terminal and the other
to B. For powered devices, use red and black to supply power
to the device. Run the red wire to the R (positive) terminal and
the black wire to the B (negative) terminal.
When using end of line supervision, connect the zone according
to one of the configurations outlined in Section 2.8 “Zone
Wiring.” End of line resistors must be placed on the device
end of the loop, not at the keypad.
Keypad zones do not support DEOL resistors.
Assigning Keypad Zones
When using keypad zone inputs, each input used must be
assigned a zone number in Installer’s Programming.
First, ensure that you have enrolled all installed keypads into the
desired slots. (See Section 2.5 “Keypad Enrollment.”)
Next, enter programming section [020] to assign the zones.
There are eight programming locations in this section, one for
each keypad slot. Enter a 2-digit zone number for each of the
keypad zones. This number must be entered in the location
corresponding to the keypad to which each zone is connected.
Keypad zones 1-6 will replace zone terminals Z1-
Z6 on the control panel.
Once the keypad zones are assigned, you must
also program zone definitions and zone attributes.
