Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the
following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Radiation Exposure Statement
The product comply with the FCC portable RF exposure limit set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and are safe for intended operation as described in
this manual. The further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product
can be kept as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower
output power if such function is available.
Industry Canada statement
This device complies with ISED’s licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Radiation Exposure Statement
The product comply with the Canada portable RF exposure limit set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and are safe for intended operation as described in
this manual. The further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product
can be kept as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower
output power if such function is available.
Overview
What’s in the box
- 1 BP41 Alarm Panel
- 1 Wall mount plate
- 1 T10 Security torx screwdriver
- 1 Flat head screwdriver
- 12 Cable zip ties
- 4 Mounting screws and wall anchors 32 1kΩ EOL resistors
- 1 AC Power cable
What you’ll need
- A working wired Internet connection over Ethernet
- A smartphone or laptop
- A #2 Phillips screwdriver or power drill with a #2 Phillips driver bit
- 5/16 inch (7.9mm) drill bit for wall anchors
- 5/32 inch (4mm) drill bit for pilot holes
- A Cat5 or Cat6 Ethernet cable
Mounting
To remove the wall mount, unscrew the two security orx screws from the inside.
Once the security screws are fully removed, slide the wall mount down and away
from the main enclosure.
Drill four 5/16” Ø holes into the wall.
Insert the drywall anchors into the holes. Fasten the mount plate onto the
wall by installing the mounting screws into the wall anchors.
Drill four 5/32” Ø holes into the wall. Fasten the mount plate onto the wall
by installing the mounting screws into the pilot holes.
Wiring
Current Limiting Resistor
If a powered peripheral has inrush current over 10A, an in-line current
limiting power resistor of 10Ω should be used to ensure peripheral does not
exceed max power draw, which may disrupt normal operation.
Max Line Resistance
The maximum line resistance for input wire runs should be less than 100Ω,
exclusive of end-of-line supervision resistors.
Max Power
For programmable 12V Outputs A and B: 1A max per output. For 12V AUX terminals
2A max combined.
End-of-Line Resistor (EOLR) Supervision
EOLR supervision of inputs is optional on the BP41, and resistors do not need
to be installed for normal operation. The panel does support single EOLR and
double EOLR supervision modes. The supervision mode for each input can be
configured in Command. 1KΩ resistors may be used for both single and double
EOL supervision.
Battery Backup
Battery should be sized to provide at least 4 hours of operation. The BP41
consumes 350mA with no sensors connected.
AC Field Wiring
If AC power is brought in via conduit, cut and splice wire going from AC inlet
to PSU.
Wiring Diagram
Input
Line resistance should be less than 100Ω exclusive of EOL resistor.
12V AUX
Maximum current draw across all 6
12V AUX outputs must not exceed 2A.
12V Programmable Output
Examples below are illustrative.
Any 12V alarm signaling devices can be used with either output.
Connect
Connect the BP41 to your network using either of the Ethernet ports located at
the bottom of the controller. If you are adding an additional BP41 unit to
your system, you can connect BP41s by Ethernet.
Connect the BP41 power supply into your standard power outlet (120 VAC).
