7.13 ALC-H16 Hardwire Loop Controller Module
The ALC-H16 Hardwire Loop Controller module provides an interface in order to add 16
conventional adder boards. This board may be mounted over the main chassis of the FX-2000
Fire Alarm Panel or on any chassis which supports adder boards. Refer to page Module Mounting
Locations View #2 on page 24 for mounting applications. Mount the module using four #6 screws
and (if necessary) four 1 1/2" spacers.
Power The power is supplied to the board via cable from the main chassis board
or from the previous loop controller module into the P1 power in connector.
Connect the P2 power out connector to the next loop controller module or
other adder module. Two power cables are supplied with the module.
RS-485 The RS-485 cable comes attached at P3 and is either connected to the
main chassis board or connected from the previous loop controller module
or other adder board. If the next loop controller module is used, connect the
RS-485 out at P4 to the next loop controller module; if it is not used, leave
without connection.
Jumpers A jumper is provided at JW2 for normal operation. To reset the board, leave
the jumper at JW2 and momentarily short the pins at position JW1.
BDM Port This connection is for factory use only.
