The IMS-4000 Node is housed in a 9.6"w x 1.75"h x 7"d enclosure, which is 1 EIA rack-mount space high.
front panel layout
The front panel contains connections for eight sensor inputs, microphone input, Ethernet port, serial port, and power LED.

sensor inpUTs
The sensor inputs are designed to interface with IMS-4000 series sensors (See Chapter 7). The use of RJ-45 jacks for sensor
inputs allows the use of existing structured cabling to connect remote sensors.
MiCrophone
The Node unit comes with a built-in microphone. Directly below the built-in mic is a separate jack for connecting an
optional condenser microphone to sense audible alarms, such as smoke detectors.
When an external microphone is connected, the internal microphone is disabled.
rJ-45 10/100base-T eTherneT porT
This jack is for connecting to your network so that the IMS-4000 Node can communicate with the IMS-4000 Host and ping
selected network servers and/or services. Two LEDs indicate Link Status (left) and Receive Date status (right).
serial porT
The RS-232 serial port is used to configure network settings. The port is DB9 male DTE and operates at 9600 baud, no par-
ity, and 1 stop bit. A DB9 female–female null modem cable is required to configure network settings.
on/off swiTCh
The on/off switch connects main power and battery power to the system. In the event that main power fails, the backup bat-
tery system will automatically power the system.
rear panel
The rear panel is where the main power cord exits the unit. A 120VAC/60Hz to 8VAC adapter provides main power to the
unit.
