aritech 2X-A-LB Addressable 2 Loop Board
Installation Sheet
Description
The 2X-A-LB Loop Board provides two additional loops (LOOP3 and LOOP4) and four additional supervised outputs (OUT5, OUT6, OUT7, and OUT8) to compatible 2X-A control panels.
Caution: The 2X-A-LB Loop Board is only compatible for installation in 2X-A control panels.
Installation
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death from electrocution, disconnect the control panel from the mains power supply and batteries before installing this product.
Recommended cable
Use 0.13 to 3.31 mm² (12 to 26 AWG) shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable.
Use the earth studs in the control panel cabinet for termination.
See your control panel installation manual for more information on cable and
wiring recommendations.
To install the expansion board:
-
Install the loop board into slot 2 of the control panel chassis, as shown in Figure 1. Push firmly to ensure a good connection. Secure the board with the screws provided.
-
Connect loops and configurable outputs as shown in Figure 2.
Loop earth connection: Connect one side to the earth studs in the control panel cabinet (not to the loop earth terminal on the expansion board). The other side can be left floating.
Output connection: If an output is not used, install an end-of-line resistor across the unused terminals (refer to the Specifications table, configurable outputs) to avoid an open circuit fault on the output. -
Restore power and add the device to the control panel configuration (see the control panel installation manual for further details).
-
Configure loops, outputs, and all connected devices. Check loop installations using a loop load calculator.
See your control panel installation manual for detailed information on loop and configurable output wiring and configuration.
Maintenance
Basic maintenance consists of a yearly inspection. Do not modify internal wiring or circuitry.
