CHAPTER 4: OUTPUTS
Express II comes standard with one on-board relay output. The output capability may be
expanded up to 16 relay outputs.
HOW THE OUTPUTS WORK
Relay outputs are used to switch equipment on or off. The 16 expansion outputs can only be
operated manually; however, the on-board output may be programmed to operate in two ways:
Manual or Auto.
Manual—When configured as manual, the output may be turned on or off by the user. This may
be accomplished using the local keypad or via Touch-Tone
TM
phone.
Auto—The built-in output (Output Zero) is the only output with the “Auto” option available.
When this option is programmed, Output Zero will activate when alarm recognition occurs
(LED is blinking red) and will deactivate when the alarm has been acknowledged. (
Note: the
alarm condition may still exist.)
WIRING THE OUTPUTS
The standard on-board relay output, output #0, is located on the orange terminal strip to the far
right of the ON/OFF switch (see Figure 12).
Figure 12: Location of On-board Output relay
It is labeled “Output Relay.” It is a single-pole, single-throw, latching relay. See “Outputs”
section in Chapter Five for more information.
NOTE: All wiring should comply with section 17 of the UL requirements.
