Location: 18 Zone 5: (2 nd Digit): Sound Default: External Sounder (Pulses)
For fire zone the recommended (default) zone sound is “External sounder pulsed”
However it is possible to change the zone sound and type to any of the ones provided in the
previous list.
Location: 19 Zone 6: Tamper Zone
Zone 6 is reserved as a Tamper Zone. This zone can be programmed to any zone type (except
Fire) including Tamper. If the zone was programmed as Tamper, in violation, a Tamper Code
report will be sent and the Tamper LED on the keypad (marked as 6/Tmp) will light up.
UTILITY OUTPUTS: LOCATIONS 22-25
The ORBIT-6 supports one open collector Utility Output (derived between the UO/ECL and AUX
terminals) which can be used for switching an external device on or off. Once the Utility Output is
activated the device will be connected between AUX (+12V) and ground (0V). This connection is
capable of switching light loads of no more than 70mA.
Note: When activated the utility output is switched to the Negative Polarity.
The “UO” can be also used to reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s). In that case the 12V power to
the smoke detector will be supplied via the UO (see Figures 1A and 1B). The UO should be
defined as AUX switch.
If the Utility Output Expansion Module is being used, the same information in Location 22 is
applicable for the programming of UO2 (Location 23), UO3 (Location 24), and/or UO4 (Location
25). It is not necessary to program all of the available “UOs”, unless they’re used. Note that
when the Utility Output Expansion Module is employed, the original Utility Output on the Main
Board (the UO/ECL terminal) is no longer available.
Important: In order to use the Utility Output Expansion you have to define the module in
Location 30.
22
Because of the “UO’s” modest 70 mA
current capability, it will be necessary to
use an “intermediate” relay-whose
physical contacts can switch far greater
currents (limited by their contact rating).
The figure at the left shows how such a
relay can trigger a strobe light. If used in
this manner, the “UO”
cannot be used to
reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s).
If more than one “UO” output is necessary, a
Utility Output Expansion Module is available. Its
four “UOs” (U01, UO2, UO3, and UO4) replace
the ORBIT-6’s single “on-board ”UO”. The “UOs”
on the
Utility Output Expansion Module are
relay-based, and allow a maximum current of
500 mAs. Refer to Figures 1A and 1B (
pages 32
and 33), for wiring instructions and additional
information. The figure at the right, shows how a
Utility Output on the “UO Expander” can be used
to switch a table lamp on and off.
