BHS-i100 Installation and Programming Instructions
Mounting
1. Hold mounting plate level up to the wall where the
SS470 will be mounted and mark area for wires to run
through wall.
Figure 1
2. Make hole in wall. Run wires (18 gauge stranded
wire) from the mounting location of the SS470 to the
outlet where the Power Supply will be mounted.
3. Mount the SS470 mounting plate to the wall using #8
drywall screws.
4. Attach the wires to the power terminals of the SS470.
If the wire is color coded, note the attachment color
used for the positive terminal of the SS470. This
same color wire should connect to the positive
terminal of the Power Supply. The SS470 has a
protection circuit in case the wires are connected with
the wrong polarity. Later, when the Power Supply is
mounted, if the Siren-Strobe does not receive power
from the Power Supply, switch the polarity of the wire
connections on the Power Supply.
5. Snap the SS470 onto the back plate, by inserting the
tabs on the mounting plate into holes on the back of
the Siren-Strobe. If any pressure or difficulty is
encountered, do not apply force. Investigate the
routing of the wires and the alignment of the SS470
and the mounting plate and try again.
2.4.2 Wire the Power Supply
Note: You must be free of static electricity before handling the
Power Supply. Touch a bare metal surface or wear a grounding
strap to discharge yourself.
Use the Brinks BS450 Power Supply to provide power to the
Auxiliary Siren-strobe.
BS450 Specifications:
Input: 120V 60Hz
Output: 5VDC 850mA
1. Select an outlet on which to mount the Power Supply.
Choose an outlet that is close to the location where the
Keypad is mounted.
2. Find the circuit breaker or fuse controlling the outlet to
which the Power Supply will be mounted and disconnect
power to the outlet by turning the circuit breaker off or
removing the fuse.
3. Remove the center screw attaching the outlet cover to
the outlet.
4. Attach the wires to the Power Supply terminals, noting
the polarity of the wire colors (if any). The Power Supply
generates a polarity sensitive +5 volts DC. If the Keypad
does not receive power from the Power Supply, switch
the polarity of the wire connections on the Power Supply.
5. The Power Supply contains a tab that protrudes above
the Power Supply. The Power Supply must be mounted
so that the hole in the tab is aligned with the center screw
hole of the outlet cover. This may require changing the
vertical orientation of the Power Supply in order to find
the direction which permits the hole in the tab to align
with the center screw hole of the outlet cover.
6. Insert the outlet screw through both the tab and the
center screw hole of the outlet cover, and tighten. The tab
and the cover should be snug against the outlet, but not
so tight that it causes flexing or stress on either the tab or
the outlet cover.
Use the mounting
plate as a template
for making a hole for
running wires to the
power supply
7. Reconnect power to the outlet by turning the circuit
breaker on or replacing the fuse.
Note: Connect the transformer using 18 AWG or larger wire.
Wiring Diagram SK-WIR-002 for the BS450 Power Supply
The power supply is intended to be correctly orientated in a
vertical or floor mount position.
2.4.3 Install the Battery
NOTE
To avoid risk of shock or fire, install only InGrid
IG120 battery.
Install the InGrid IG120 rechargeable battery pack into the
Siren-Strobe and allow charging for at least 24 hours to ensure
that it is fully charged.
1. Connect the battery pack to the Siren-Strobe connector in
the battery compartment. Match the battery connector's
polarity to the Siren-Strobe polarity. Push the battery
pack connector and Siren-Strobe connector together until
they click into place.
2. Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling
on the battery wires.
3. Route the wires under the battery pack and place the
battery pack in the compartment
2.5 Install/Learn Auxiliary Sirens
Occasionally, one or more Auxiliary Sirens are needed. This
may occur if the layout of the home prevents the Keypad sirens
from adequately reaching all areas of the home or if residents
suffer from hearing loss. Up to four (4) Auxiliary Sirens may be
installed on a system. If an Auxiliary Siren is necessary, it
should be mounted in a location that will enable all occupants of
the household to hear the siren.
