669 Digital Communicator Alarm Control panel
Instruction Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION:

The 669 (llB” Version) Digital Communicator transmits coded messages over the telephone system to the Ademco 660 Digital Receiver located at a central monitor- i ng stat ion. Special leased I ines are not required. The 669 complies with FCC Rules, Part 68. I’ts FCC Registration isC398U-62859-AL-R and its Ringer Equivalence is 0.08.
The 669 consists of a covered circuit board chassis (WS669) and a steel cabinet with locked cover (No. 205). When the communicator is ordered as a WS669, the same covered circuit board is provided, but without a cabinet. It may be installed in the cabinet of the No. 4080 Alarm LogiCenter, in an alarm processing center (such as No. 1023, 1024, BClO26 or BC10281, in a No. 205 Cabinet obtained separately or in any other suitable enclosure, such as a No. 204 Cabinet.
The 669 may be powered by a low cost 6V. dry battery (Ademco Nos. 460 or 866) or a rechargeable 6V. DC filtered power supply (Ademco Recharge-A-Packs Nos. 96, 97, 492, 493, 497 or the power supply, for example, of a No. 1023, 1024, BC1026 or BCl028 P.Iarm Processing Center). The 89 pack may not be used. It may be triggered from an alarm control or other equipment that has a 6 to l2V. DC output (battery or filtered full wave rectified required for Channel 01, by normally open dry contacts, or, by the addition of a resistor, normally closed dry contacts.
The 669 has 4 sending channels plus a “test” channel. These can be used for a var i ety of purposes . For example, Channel A might be used to transmit a fire message, Channel B to send a burglar alarm message, Channel C to transmit a “pan i c” or hold-up message and Channel D (or any of the other channels) to moni tor other functions such as freezers, oil burners, building temperature, machine operations, etc. The test channel’s distinctive message is sent whenever the system is tested, or it may be used for special messages such as abort, restore or opening and closing signals (see “Additional Features and Information” start ing on page 2). The test channel may also be used as a fourth monitoring channel.

OPERATION:

When a channel is triggered, the 669 pauses momentarily while it automatically disconnects all local handsets from the line (automatic line seizure) thereby “hang i ng up ” the line if it was in use. Then (within two seconds) the 669 “picks up” the I ine and proceeds as fol lows:
Note:
Channels A and B have built-in optional triggering delays of approximately 30 seconds to prevent unwanted transmission of short duration “alarm” conditions due to testing or accidental tt-i.pping of the, local alarm system. If the triggering signal is removed before the delay elapses no transmission will take place. At the insta,ller’s option, the delay may be eliminated in one or both channels by cutting the appropriate jumper(s) provided on the PC board. (See Diagram I).

1. First, the 669 checks for dial tone on the telephone line. Jf dial tone is detected, the 669 immediately and automatically dials the preprogrammed telephone number of the central monitoring station. Any number of characters, from one to eleven, may be programmed.
   The probability of immediate dial tone detection is high, but if a.diai tone is not detected within several seconds, the 669 will dial anyway, on the assumption that the connection may be’good even though the dial tone is not clear. :

2. When connection is made’with the central monitoring receiver, .a “handshake” tone (acknowledgment) is sent over the telephone lines by the Receiver to the 669. This “handshake” confirms, to the 669, that connection has been camp I eted to the receiver.
   If “handshake” is not received (see “Extended A&now ledge Wait Opt ion” on page 5) the communicator wi’fl disconnect Itself from the telephone line. After waiting long enough to disconnect any incoming calls which might interfere with dialing (“anti-jam”, which only works in “Called Party” control exchanges), the 669 will reconnect to the telephone line, and again check for dial tone and dial as described in Step I. If necessary, the 669 will make up to a total of IO attempts to reach the central monitoring station as described later, in Step 4.

3. Upon receipt of the “handshake” tone, the 669 will start transmitting its message. In less than 5 seconds, the message, consisting of a 3 digit customer identification number, and a I digit alarm identification number (burglary, fire, panic, freezer temperature, etc.) is sent. Since faulty phone lines can distort the numbers, the’669 sends the message up to 4 times whi le the receiver compares each message with the one before it. As soon as the Receiver detects 2 successive identical messages, it considers the transmission “valid” and sends a “kiss-off” code,. (shutdown) to the Communicator.
   If the 669 does not receive the “kiss-off” code by the time it has sent its message four times, it hangs up and dials again. Up to a tota I of IO attempts will be made to reach the central monitoring station. See Step 4.

4. In the event that either the “handshake” or the “kiss-off” is not received, the Communicator hariqs’up and tries again. If necessary, the 669 wi I I make up to a total of IO attempts to reach the central monitoring station. ( See “Alternate Telephone No.” below. 1 If after IO attempts the Communicator has not made contact and received the ffkiss-offff signal, it wi II shut down and stop dialing. (See “Unl imited Attempt Option” on page 5.1

4 hAessage ShutdOwn OptiOn: To permit transmission to less sophisticated receivers manufactured by others which do not have the “kiss-off” (message validation and shutdown) capability, the 669 can be changed so that once “handshake’ has been received, the unit will simply send 4 messages and then shut down without wait- ing for “kiss-off”. This change is easily made by cutting a Jumper resistor (J I) on the 669’s PC board. (See Diagram I. 1

ADDITIONAL FEATURES AND INFORMATIV:

Line Sbiture: Line seizure is a built-in feature of the 669. This feature will automatically disconnect all telephones in the protected premises whenever the 669 is gctivated. This permits the 669 to send its emergency message without risk of interruption. Surge Arrestors are incorporated to protect the Comnun i- cator from voltage surges on the telephone line caused by lightning, phone line testing and other transients.
Alternate Telephone Number: At the insta I ler’s option, the 669 may ,be programed to call a second telephone number if tfigO f i rst two attempts to reach the receiver.
CAUTION: Push programming jumper connectors stra lght onto appropriate posts. If connectors are angled or if excessiv e pressure Is applfed they may loosen. If this occurs, tighten z refullv wlth lona nose pliers.

Diagram 1: TERMINALS, POSTS, JUMPERS, AND LEADS
are unsuccessf u I. any single The alternate number may differ from the primary number by digit. If an alternate number if programmed, two attempts will be made using the primary number, two using the alternate number, two using the primary, etc.

Abort: At the installer’s option, Channels A and B of the 669 can be wired in either the abort or non-abort mode simply by positioning leads on the printed circuit board. See Diagram I. (Channels C and D are non-abort only.1
In the abort mode, if the alarm system triggering the 669 is reset prior to “hand- shake”, the message is cancelled and no transmission will occur. If the alarm system is reset after “handshake” but before “kiss-off” has occurred, a code 9 wil I be transmitted to the monitoring station, instead of the alarm code. In this instance the 669 will not redial, whether or not “kiss-off” is subsequently received. (See Note re CHANNEL B ABORT SIGNAL on P. 16 for option which permits code 9 to be sent if signal is removed prior to handshake.)
In the non-abort mode, once the 669 is activated, the message cannot be canceljed.
Restore Signal : A restore signal indicates to the central monitoring station that the alarm
system or the premises has been reset after an alarm has been transmitted. The programming of this feature is optional, is only available on Channel 8, and can easily be programmed by positioning a jumper on the printed circuit board. At the installer’s option, the restore code can be changed from its normal code 9 to a code 7 by cutting a jumper resistor (J4) on the 669’s PC board. (See Diagram I. 1
Test; The special test channel of the .669 is used to check the operation of the entire transmission and receiving system. When activated from a No. 664 Test Button, the Communicator performs al I its normal dialing and message transmission routines except it sends a special code 9 to indicate to the monitoring station that a test is being performed. During testing, an LED indicator on the Test Button will light. If the normal sequence of dialing, “handshake” and “kiss-off” occurs, the LED on the No. 664 will go out indicating that a successful test has occurred; (See page 17).
Opening andClosing Signals: One way that these signals may be transmitted is by using the Test capability of the 669. Using the 664 Test Button, the subscri.ber may manually signal the central monitoring station at a predetermined opening and/or closing time each day. The central monitoring station can then monitor the exact entry and exit of personnel. An alarm identification code 9 will normally be displayed along with the 3 digit customer identification. For an automatic alternative to depressing the Test Button, an open circuit magnetic switch on the entrance door, connected across terminals 4 and 5 of the 669, will activate both the opening and closing signals. Note : CONTACT ACTION SHOULD BE MOMENTARY ONLY. A switch should be used to disable this contact during the day.
Opening/Closing signals can also be sent by using Channel B of the 669 in conjunction with its restore signal capability. A voltage (or contact closure) keyed to the arming of the alarm control unit can be used to trigger Channel B to transmit its programmed code as a “closing signal”. Removal of the voltage (or opening of contacts) upon disarming will cause a code 9 (or 7, if chosen) “opening (restore) signal” to be sent. Note: The No. 688 Opening/Closing Switching Module can provide this capabilityfor alarm processing centers such as the Nos. 1022, 1024, 1026, 1028. The No. 1023 Alarm Processing Center has this opening/closing signal capability bui It-in.
Low Battery Detection: An important feature of the 669 is low battery detection. When- ever the battery voltage to the 669 drops to 4V, and the unit is called upon to trans- mit a test, abort, or restore signal, the usual code 9 will instead be sent as a code 8., signifying low battery. Note: If a code 7 restore signal has been selected, the code 7 signal will not changewith low battery. If dry cells are used, frequent periodic testing is advised. When a low batt&ry test code 8 is transmitted, the dry battery
should be replaced.
Low Battery Shutdown: If the battery voltage to the 669 drops to a point where reliable transmission cannot take place, the Communicator shuts down completely.
Unlimited Attempt Option: At the time of installation, the IO attempt shutdown feature may be disable by cutting a jumper resistor on the 669’s PC board (J2 shown in Diagram – I I. The 669 will then, when activated, continue to try to reach the central monitoring station until “kiss-off” is received or (if “abort” has been selected for the triggering channel) until the alarm condition at its input terminals has been removed.
Extended Acknowledge WaitOptiOrl: In some geographical areas there sti I I exist some ,slow speed telephone switching systems. To assist the 669 in getting through to the receiver, the time that the 669 waits to receive a “handshake” on each cal I (acknow- ledge wait time) may, at the installer’s option be increased from its normal 25 seconds (approximate) to approximately 60 seconds. This is accomplished by cutting a jumper resistor (J3) on the 669’s PC board. (.See Diagram I. 1
“Hold” Feature: The 669 will function with Ademco receivers that are used with No. 671 Digital Call Directors to provide multiple telephone line capability. It can automatically detect the special “hold” signal that wil I be sent when the receiver is busy processing another call. When the receiver is ready, the 669 on “hoI d” wi I I be siqnal led to proceed with its normal transmission. If the 669 is not taken off “hold;’ within approximately one minute, it will hang up and dial again.

MOUNTING:

If the Communicator was ordered as a No. 669, a cabi net (No. 205) will accompany the chassis. Mount the cabinet in its desired location and install the communicator chassis in the cabinet, using the upper set of grooves prov ded at the side edges of the cab i net. Secure the chassis with a sheet metal screw through the upper hole in the cabinet’s right hand edge.
If ordered as a No. WS669, no cabinet will be provided. The chassis may be installed in the cabinet of a No. 4080 Alarm LogiCenter or No. 1023, 1024, BC1026 or BC1028 Alarm Processing Center, in a No. 205-Cabinet obtained separately, or elsewhere as requ i red.
Current models of the Nos. 1023, 1024, BC1026 and BC1028 are provided with extra mounting grooves and hole at the sides of their cabinets to accommodate the comnunicator chassis. In addition, a small hole is provided in the top of these cabinets to enable the communicator chassis to be mounted vertically behind the alarm processing center’s chassis after programming. (See Diagram 2.1 Note: In cabinets without mounting grooves, the communicator chassis may be Gred in place with double sided tape.

PROGRAMMING:

The 669 is easily programmed by placing programming jumpers on appropriate posts on the printed circuit board. The programming jumpers will be found in a package accompanying the 669. Different colors are provided for easier identification when programming the 669.
The programming areas are located at the lower right hand corner of the PC board. (See Diagram I.) The Main Programming Area is used for programming the central monitoring station’s telephone number, the subscriber identification number and Channel A and B alarm codes only. A separate area is used for programming only the Channel C alarm code and is described on page IO. Channel D has a fixed alarm code “6”, preset at the factory.

.Diagram 2: INSTALLATION OF COMMUNICATOR CHASSIS IN ALARM PROCESSING CENTER. 1 eg: No. 1024, 6 C 1026, BC 1028)
Main Programming Area: (See Diagrams I and 3.) The’.telephone number for the central monitoring station, the subscriber identification number and Channel A and B alarm codes are programmed by interconnecting the row of I6 sets of lettered PAIRED posts and the row of numbered DIGIT posts. Each set of PAIRED posts consists of a CHAR- ACTER post and a DIGIT EXTENDER post. ALTERNATE NUMBER POSTS are provided for optional programming of an alternate telephone number.

used, it must be connected to the SKIP post with a programming jumper. Other- wise, it will be connected to the appropriate DIGIT post, as described later. There is a three second delay, after the prefix digit is dialed, before the remaining characters are dialed (to accommodate PBX System d i a I i ng requi rements.
A,B,C| For AREA CODE, when.required. If not used, these posts must be connected with jumpers for SKIP, as described in the EXAMPLES given later.
D-K| For programming the TELEPHONE NUMBER of the central monitoring station. For numbers with fewer than seven digits, leave unused post(s) at right and program them as SKIP(s) . See EXAMPLES qi ven I ater.

(This diagram may be used to chart programming during actual installation.
See examples described in text and Diagrams 4, 5 and 6.1

different account numbers can be programmed. Al I three digits must. be programmed. For subscriber identification numbers lower than 100, program W or W and X as “0” (zero). Examp I e: Program “98” as “098”, program “8” as “008”. Do not use SKIP.
CH A, CH B| For programming the ALARM CODE numbers for Channels A and 8.

Both Channels must be programmed. If Channel A or B is not.to be used, its character post must be programmed with a “0” (zero). Do not leave CH A or CH B unprogrammed and do not use SKIP, orFurious communicator operation may result if-l-he unused channel is inadvertently tripped.
Whe,n two or more alarms are present simu I taneous I y, the. numerically lowest alarm code always takes priority over the higher. For example, if an alarm code 2 is tripped on Channel A and a code i’is tripped on Channel B the lower code I will take priority and send its message. It is recommended, therefore, that codes be assigned as f0.l lows:

1. Fire
2. Hold-up (Panic)
3. Burglary 4 through
4. As required
5. Preset at factory for Channel D alarm code.
6. Reserve for Channel B “Restore” code if jumper J4 is cut as explained on page 16. . 8,9: Preset at factory and reserved for “Abort”, “Test” and “Restore”. Norma I I y, 9 is transmitted. If low battery cond’ition exists, a code 8 is transmitted. 0: Unused channel A and/or 8.

described later.

Progra&ming is accomplished by connecting each CHARACTER post either to an appropriate DIGIT>post or DIGIT EXTENDER post. When a DIGIT post is already occupied and that same digit Is needed for another CHARACTER post, connection should be made to the DIGIT EXTENDER post paired with a CHARACTER post that is already programmed to that digit.
All of the following CHARACTER posts must be programmed: I f hot needed, PREFIX, AREA CODE AND/OR TELEPHONE NUMBER posts P, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J and/or K must be programmed as “SKIP”. SUBSCRIBER IDENTIFICATION AND ALARM CODE posts W, X,y, CH A, CH B must use digits (I to 9, or 0).
An ALTERNATE TELEPHONE NUMBER may be programmed, i f desi red. It may differ from the primary number in any single character position (for example: 123-6666 and 123-6646). Attempts to reach the central monitoring station will th,en alternate in, pairs between the primary number and the alternate number. In programming, the ALTERNATE NUMBER posts L, M and N must be used in conjunction with the DIGIT and CHARACTER posts:
L: Connect to the numerical value  (I through 0) of the character in the primary telephone number.
M: Connect to the numerical value (I through 0) of the character in the alternate telephone number.
N: Connect to the CHARACTER post of the digit to be changed.

Diagram 4: PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE MNO Alternate Number)
Note that the DIGIT EMENDER post associated with the CHARACTER post in thi s case shou I d not be used. Instead, extender posts have been provided at L and M.
Programming is best explained further by giving two examples. See EXAMPLES I and 2 and Diagrams 4 and 5.

EXAMPLE 2: PROGRAMMING WITH ALTERNATE TELEPHONE NUMBER
In the example shown in Diagram 5 the following procedure was followed to accomplish the programming of:

Prefix: Since none is required, CHARACTER post “P” is connected to DIGIT post “SKIP” with a programming jumper.
Area Code: ‘Since none is required, but DIGIT post “SKIP” is already used, CHARACTER post “A” is connected to DIG IT EXTENDER post “P”. Similarly, “B” is connected to “A” and “C” is connected to “B” in order to extend “SKIP” to a I I of these posts.
Telephone Numbers: CHARACTER posts I’D”, “El’, “F” and “G” are connected to DIGIT posts “I”, “2”, “3” and “6” respect i ve I y. CHARACTER post “H” i.s connected to DIG IT EXTENDER post G to obta i n “6”. CHARACTER post “J” is connected to SWITCHED CHARACTER post “N” since “J” is the character position with primary and alternate digits. CHARACTER post “L” is connected to DIGIT EXTENDER post “H” to obtain “6” for the primary digit. CHARACTER POST “M” obtains its “4” for the alternate digit directly from DIGIT post “4”. CHARACTER post “K” obtains its “6” from DIG IT EXTENDER post “L”.
Subscriber ldentif ication: The “0” for CHARACTER post “W” i s obta i ned from DIGIT post “0”. The “2” for post “Xl’ is obtained from DIG IT EXTENDER post “El’. The “4” for post “Y” is obtained from DIGIT EXTENDER post “M”.

Note : Diagram 3 may be used to chart the programming for the actual installation to be made.

ChanrcelC Programming Area:
The alarm code for Channel C is programmed,in a separate area on the communicator’s circuit board. See Di agrams I , 3 and 6. Posts for selection of codes I through 3 are provided. Caution: Do not use posts in the Channel C Area to program any part of the Main Programming Area, and vice versa.
The code for Channel C should be selected similarly to the guidelines for Channels A and B given above, on page 8. As stated, the&g, the lowest alarm code takes priority

Diagram 5: PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE 2: (With Alternate Number)
if two or more alarms occur simultaneously. Code 6 is preset at the factory for Channel D. Code 7 shou I d norma I I y be reserved for Channe I B Restore Code use if desi red and Code 8 should be reserved for the communicator’s low battery condition signal.
Code 9 is preset at the factory for “Abort”, “Test” and/or “Restore” messages. Since Channel C is a non-abort, non-restore channel, it .is often used for panic or emergency a I arm.
To program Channel C, connect a programming jumper between the CH C (Channel C),Post and the desired numbered C CODE Post (from the row of numbered posts just above the CH C Post). Diagram 5 shows Channel C programmed to Code 2.
Note: If Channel C is not used, do NOT program the CH C post and do NOT use “SKIP” (unlike the Main Programming Area, which includes Channels A and 8, where all characters must be programmed either with a numerical value or a “SKIP”). Unused posts in the ‘*C” programming area may NOT be used to obtai n dioit values for the main programming area. They are for Channel C use only.

Diagram 6 PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE, CHANNEL C

TRIGGERING CONNECTIONS:

Triggering Delays:
Channels A and 6 have built-in optional triggering delays of approximately 30 seconds (when triggered from a 6V. DC source) to prevent unwanted transmission of short duration “alarm” conditions due to testing or accidental tripping of the local alarm system. If the triggering signal is removed before the delay elapses, no transmission wil’l take place. Note: When triggered from a IZV. DC source, the delay will be approx- imately IO seZi?Js.
To eliminate triggering delays from Channel A and/or B, if desired, cut appropriate wire loop(s) as indicated on Diagram I, and below:

Triggering Methods (Channels A, 8, C):
Channels A, B and/or C can each be triggered independently in one of three ways:
I. By a 6-IZV. DC voltage input from a control instrument (Diagram 7). Th i s metho.d is used when the 669 is connected as a “slave” to an existing local alarm. The communicator should be connected to the local alarm control’s “bell” terminals as fol lows:
a. Connect the control’s positive (+I bell terminal to communicator terminal 9 (Channel A), terminal II (Channel B) or terminal I2 (Channel C).
b. Connect the control’s negative (-1 bell terminal to communicator terminal IO (Channel A or B), or terminal 4 (Channel C).

Diagram 7: TRIGGERING BY VOLTAGE INPUTtCHANNELS A, 6, Cl
2. By a normal ly open “dry” contact closure (Diagram In this mode, the channel 8). will trigger when it senses the closure of a normally open circuit.
a. Connect one lead from the normally open circuit to the positive (+I terminal of the 669’s power source.
b. Connect the other lead from the normally open circuit to 663 terminal 9 (Channel A), terminal II (Channel 8) or terminal I2 (Channel Cl.

Diagram 8: TRIGGERING BY DRY CdNTACT CLOSURE (CHANNELS A,B, C)
3. By the opening of a normally closed dry contact (Diaqram 9). Note: This method places a constant additional load of IOma, per channel Gused, on the 669’s power source.
a- Connect a 680 ohm, l/4 watt resistor (not supplied) between terminal 9 (Channel A), terminal II (Channel B) or terminal I2 (Channel C) and the positive (+I side of the 669’s power source.
b. Connect the normally closed contact between terminal 9 (Channel A), terminal II (Channel B) or terminal I2 (Channel C) and terminal 4.

Diagram 9: TRIGGERING BY DRY CONTACT OPENING (CHANNELS A, B, CI

Triggering Met hods (Channel D)
Channel D is a non-abort, non-restore channel with a fixed alarm code “6” and may be triggered in any one of three ways: I) 6-l2V. DC Voltage Input, 2) Dry Contact Closure or 3) Dry Contact Opening (see the diagrams below). A “Channel D Post” is located on the circuit board just to the left ‘kf the RED and BLACK flying leads (see diagram) and a YELLOW jumper width fema’le connector is supplied for easy connection.

Diagram 10: CHANNEL D TRIGGERI’NG METHODS
ABORT/ NON-ABORT CONNECTIONS (Channels A and B):
See Di agtam I and the “Abort” description on page 4. If the al.arm condition that has triggered Channel A or 6 is reset before the Communicator has sent its message, the message wi I I be cancel I ed (aborted) or allowed to go through (non-aborted) depending.upon which option the installer has selected. These options may be selected by placing the abort jumpers pro- vided at the right edge of the circuit board (YELLOW for Channel A, BLUE for Channel B) on the appropriate posts as indicated in the tabulation shown in Diagram I and as fol lows:
a. If the channel .triggerinq signal might be momentary, the abort jumper for that channel must be placed on its NON-ABORT Post to insure that messaaes will be sent (Channel’ A: YELLOW on PI, Channel 8: BLUE on PZ). Note: The channel’s triggering delay loop should also be cut if immediate lock-in of the triggering signal is desired.
b. If the channel triggering signal will be continuous and you DO NOT want messages to be aborted, place the abort jumper for that channel on its NON- ABORT Post (Channe I A: YELLOW on PI, Channel B: BLUE on P2).
c. If the channel triggering signal will be continuous and you DO want messages to be aborted if the alarm system is reset quickly, place the abort jumper for that channel on its ABORT Post (Channel A: YELLOW on P4, Channel B: BLUE on P5).
Note: In the ABORT mode, if the input signal is removed from’channel A or B (ifB is connected for “non-restore”) before the 669 receives the “handshake” (acknowledge signal) from the receiver, the Communicator will hang up (although not necessarily at the instant the input signal is removed) and not send any message at all. If the input signal is removed after “handshake”, but before tlkiss-off”, a code 9 message will be sent and the 669 will not redial, whether or not “ki ss-of f” i s subsequent I y rece.i ved. 173

CHANNEL B ABORT SIGNAL:

Applicable only to Channel B when programmed for RESTORE, WITH ABORT.
The (screw programmed) predecessor of this digital communicator had the following feature: If Channel B was programmed for RESTORE, WITH ABORT, and the triggering jnput was removed prior to receipt of the “handshake” (acknowledgment signal) from the central monitoring station, a code 9 would be tyansmitted.
This (jumper programmed) digital communicator is designed to provide true abort. If the input i s removed from Channe I B prior to “handshake”, no transmission will ordinarily take place; however, if the unit’s ORANGE flying lead is connected to Terminal 4 or Terminal IO on the PC board, Channel B operation similar to that of the earlier (screw programmed) units will be obtained, namely: a code 9 will be transmitted-if the triggering input is removed prior to “handshake”, even if restore code 7 has been selected.
In any event, Channels A or B of all models will, in the ABORT mode, send a code 9 (or 7, if chosenFif the-iggering input is removed,after “handshake” but before “kiss-off”.

RESTORE/NON-RESTORE CONNECTlONS(Channel B):
See Diagram I and “Restore Signa I” on page 4. Channel B can be connected to send a restore message automatically when the alarm condition is removed from the channel after the monitoring station has received the ful I alarm message.and “kiss-off” has taken place. Connection for “restore” may be made by placing the GREEN restore jumper pro- vided at the right edge of the circuit board on post P6. If no restore signa I is desired, place the jumper on post P3.
The normal code 9 restore signal can be changed.to’a di.stinctive code 7, if desired, by cutting JUMPER RESISTOR J4 at the right edge of the circuit board (code 9 will remain as the test/abort signal message. A code 9 restore signal will be transmitted as a code 8 if a low battery condition exists. If code 7 is selected, however, a low battery condition will not alter the code 7 restore signal. In any event, a low battery condition wi I I stil I be revealed by signals being transmitted as code 8 instead of code 9.

MISCELLANEOUS OPTIONS:

These options, discussed earlier, may be selected at the time of installation by cutting the appropriate jumper resistors on the 669’s PC board.

It is advisable to connect a No. 664 Digital Communicator Tester Ctest button with LED) to the 669 to enable the communicator’s operation to be tested periodically with the central monitoring station. Improper conditions (such as “low battery”) can thus be monitored.

No. 664 Digital Communicator Tester Connections:
The No. 664 may be mounted in any convenient location. Diaqram II shows how its three leads should be connected to the 669’s terminals (WHITE to .4, BLACK to 5, RED to 6).

Diagram 11: No.664 TESTER CONNECTIONS
Test Procedure:
After GROUND, TELEPHONE LINE and POWER connections have been completed (as described in the next three sections), operation of the 669 may be tested at any time with the central monitoring station by using the No. 664 Tester. The No. 664 contains a normally open momentary contact pushbutton switch and an LED indicator.

1. Push the button on the No. 664 momentarily. This will initiate the test function and cause the 669 to dial the receiver at the central monitorina station and send a code 9 test signal (or code 8 if a low battery condit?on exists);
2. The LED indicator on the No. 664 will be lit while the 669 is operating.
3. The LED will turn off when the 669 shuts off. Under normal conditions the LED will turn off within I minute. Transmission time for the test will be longer if the central monitoring station is busy or if telephone problems exist. If the LED is still on after 5 minutes the subscriber should check with the central monitoring station. 175

GROUND AND SURGE ARRESTOR CONNECTIONS:
The 669 contains surge arrestors to help protect the dialer circuits from voltage. surges on the telephone line. For proper protection, termina I 2 of the 669 must be connected to .a cold water pipe. ground. A GREEN 18” I ead wi i-h a “U” I ug at one end has been provided for this purpose.
IMPORTANT: The 3 leads from the surge arrestors must be connected to terminals I,. 2, 3 as shown in Diagram 12 (RED leads to I and 3, GREEN to 2).

Diagram 12: TELEPHONE LINE CONNECTIONS

TELEPHONE LINE CONNECTIONS

Connection of the 669 to the telephone line and local handsets (for automatic line seizure) should be made via an Ademco No. 620 Direct Connect Cord which plugs into a telephone company supplied jack (USOC No. RJ31X). See Diagram 12. Alternatively, if local regulations __ permit, termi na Is I and 3 may be connected directly to the telephone line and terminals 7 and 8 connected to local handsets in parallel (for automatic line seizure, if required).
Automatic line seizure is built into the 669. ‘This insures that the 669 will control the telephone line and that a handset off-hook will not prevent the completion of a call to the central monitoring station.

POWER CONNECTIONS:
Note: Before connecting power to the 669, inspect the PC board for any loose bits of wire or other foreign matter and recheck to insure that all connections are according to the instructions given so far. Furthermore, it is imperative that the following instructions concerning the VIOLET jumper be followed.

The 669 can be powered by:
a. Rechargeable 6V. DC Filtered Power Supply, such as the Ademco Nos. 96, 97 492, 493, 497 or the power supply of, for example, a No. 1023, 1024, BC!O26 or BC1028 Alarm Processing Center. The 669’s VIOLET jumper should be connected to the STORAGE post just to .-the right of the jumper. (See Diagrams I and 13.1
b. 6V. Dry Lantern Battery such as the Ademco No. 460 or 866. The VIOLET jumper should be connected to the Vcc2 Post. (See Diagrams I and 14.1
c. Rechargeable 4.8V. DC Battery Pack. The VIOLET jumper should be connected to the Vcc2 Post. (See Diagrams I and 14.1
IMPORTANT : No. 89 Energy Packs or other power sources supplyinq unfiltered or pulsating DC MUST NOT be used.

Connect power to the 669 as follows and as shown in Diagrams I3 and 14.

1. Connect the BLACK (.flying) lead from the PC board to the negative (-1 terminal of the power source.
2. Connect the RED (flying) lead to the positive terminal of the power source.
3. If a rechargeable power supply its plug-in is used, transformer should be installed in an outlet that is ON 24 hours a day.

ACCESSORIES:

Accessories that are available for use with the 669 include the following:
No. 659 Line Fault Monitor: Detects phone line outages (30 sec. delay) No. 674 Sel ect-A-Li ne: Permits calling out over two telephone lines.
