TAM: Used to tamper the cabinet in which the PC5108 is mounted. Connect a normally closed (NC) switch across TAM and BLK. If the tamper is not being used connect a piece of wire across TAM and BLK to remove the trouble condition.
There is a built-in tamper switch on the expander module located in the top left corner of the circuit board. If the cabinet in which the PC5108 is mounted has the hardware required to depress this tamper switch, do not connect anything to the TAM terminal.
VAUX- Used to provide power for devices. Maximum current draw is not to exceed l 00 mA. Connect the positive lead of powered devices to VAUX and the negative to BLK or any COM terminal.
KEYBUS – The 4-wire Keybus connection is used by the panel to communicate with the module. Connect the RED, BLK, YEL and GRN terminals to the KEYBUS terminals on the PCl 616, PCl 832, PCl 864, PC50l 0, PC5015 & PC5020 main control.
Zl to ZS – Wire the zones according to the description found in the control panel Installation Manual.
