introduction
The IMS-4862 Smoke Detector Sensor is designed to connect to the IMS-4000 Host or Node and monitor for smoke in
indoor environments. The electrical connection between the sensor and IMS-4000 is made via the attached RJ-45 patch
cable. The sensor may be secured to a wall or ceiling (hardware not included).
Cabling
The Smoke Detector Sensor comes with an attached 7' cable with an RJ-45 plug on the end. If the sensor is close to the IMS-
4000 Host or Node, you can plug the sensor directly to an IMS environmental input. If the cable is too short you can use the
included RJ-45 adaptor and a longer patch cable to extend the length. For applications where the sensor may be far from the
IMS unit, you may utilize your existing network wiring infrastructure. For example, the sensor may be installed in another
room or another floor. Connect the sensor to your structured wiring network via an RJ-45 jack. At the other end, connect a
patch cable from your structured wiring patch panel directly to the Host or Node environment input.
Caution: The IMS sensors are not TCP/IP devices and therefore should not be connected directly to any wiring
infrastructure that is connected to network equipment such as a hub, router, or switch. Sensors use RJ-45 plugs
and cables similar to those used with Ethernet devices.
Mounting
The sensor may be mounted directly against a wall or ceiling (hardware not included).
Configuration
All IMS Solution sensors are auto-configured when you plug them into the Host or Node. When a new sensor is plugged
into the Host or Node, the configuration is set to the factory default via the Sensor Template. If you have modified these
templates, the configuration will be set to the modified configuration. When a sensor is removed, or the connection is dis-
rupted, the configuration data remains intact but the sensor will go into trouble status and generate a trouble alarm. When
the sensor is plugged in again, or the connection is re-established, configuration data remains unchanged and the sensor
returns to normal operating condition.
The smoke alarm is a latching alarm device. To reset the smoke alarm, momentarily disconnect the cable from the front
panel of the IMS Host or Node and then reconnect it.
Caution: Removing a sensor for less than 60 seconds does not produce a trouble alarm. Removing or
unplugging a sensor for more than 60 seconds or plugging in a different sensor at any time will cause a trouble
alarm.
