Sensor Microphone Connections
Sensor Microphone Wiring
• The ANS501 requires connection of at least one sensor microphone for operation. To allow for better ambient noise
sensing of large areas, up to 4 sensor microphones can be connected to a single ANS501.
• All microphones are wired in parallel matching the polarity markings on the sensor mic with the marking of the two
MIC terminals on the ANS501.
• Wire runs between the control unit and microphones consist of two-conductor cable and can reach 2,000 feet
(with 20AWG wire) with no appreciable loss of signal strength.
Wiring Multiple Microphones
Physical connections can be made using either Home Runs back to the ANS501 from each sensor mic or by daisy-
chaining sensor mics, depending on the installation. The maximum total wire length from any sensor mic to the ANS501
must be kept below 2000 ft.
