Advanced Setup

Adding and Removing I/O From Your System

z Adding I/O Modules to Your System Normally, your Series 1000EX dialer comes

from the factory with the exact I/O modules for your application pre-installed. The
modular design of the Series 1000EX allows you to easily add I/O capability to your
dialer without removing it from its location. The following procedure describes how
to add an I/O point to the dialer. A list of the different types of I/O modules available
from the factory, as well as field wiring diagrams, is included in the Appendix.

1. Turn OFF power to dialer.
2. Insert the new module into an unused I/O slot (see I/O address map in Appendix)

of the Series 1000EX Dialer.

3. Screw in the new module and Turn ON power to Dialer.
4. Configure the new I/O module’s type.
5. Record a voice message for the new I/O channel.
6. Configure the spoken status report format for the I/O channel.
7. Configure the telephone list to call during alarm.
8. Configure the delay for the I/O channel.
9. Set up the alarm configuration (i.e., Call-on-Alarm, LATCHED, etc.)
10. For analog inputs enter low and/or high alarm setpoints.

After finishing configuration of the new I/O module, turn off power to the dialer, wait
a few seconds, then turn on again. The POWER/FAULT LED of the Series 1000EX
should be flickering at a 95% duty cycle indicating that the new configuration data
has been stored securely in nonvolatile memory. Refer to Chapter 3, Configuration
section for more information on configuring I/O modules.


z Removing an Unused I/O Module If an I/O module is no longer to be used,

simply configure its type as SPARE, using the command ‘**cc200*’, where cc =
channel index of module to be removed. I/O modules configured as SPARE are
ignored by the dialer. Turn power OFF to the dialer before physically removing the
module.
