Programmable Utility Outputs
Supports additional 10 outputs (to the 4 on the main board)
4‐relay, 8‐transistor or 2 relay (WL expander or 3A power supply expander)
expansion output modules
Outputs operation follows system events, codes or scheduling programs
Output can follow up to 5 zone events (All/Any definition)
X‐10 Module: The LightSYS2 also supports the connection of an X‐10 Transmitter
module to its 4‐wire expansion bus. X‐10 technology converts the LightSYSʹs
programmable output events into a protocol understood by the transmitter module.
When triggered, this module generates activation and control signals along existing
AC premises wiring to the appropriate X‐10 receiver modules, placed and connected
within the premises to control lighting and appliances. X‐10 transmitter modules are
available for the LightSYS, supporting either 8‐ or 16‐premises receiver modules
Advanced Digital Voice Module
The Advanced Digital Voice module provides audible information about the status of your
LightSYS2 system and enables any remote, touch‐tone (DTMF) telephone to act as a keypad
for the system. The advanced digital voice module can be used in the following situations:
Upon event occurrence, such as alarm activation, the advanced digital voice module
informs you of a security situation, such as intrusion or fire, by calling you and
playing a pre‐recorded event announcement. You can then acknowledge the event
and remotely operate the system.
Remotely operating the system, which includes:
o
Partition arming and disarming
o
Zone bypassing
o
UO activation/deactivation
o
Changing follow‐me numbers
o
Performing listen and talk options
o
Recording opening messages or zone descriptors
3A or 1.5A Power Supply Expansion Module
Although the LightSYSʹs main panel provides 800mA of auxiliary power (500mA for Bell), the
use of a number of additional system modules and detectors will likely exceed this limitation.
As a result, the LightSYS2 supports the addition of up‐to‐4 remote switched power supplies
that each operate from AC power, connect to the bus and provide a total current capacity of 3
Amps.
The power supply modules have connections for powering auxiliary devices and triggering
bells, electronic sirens, or loudspeakers during an alarm. Each power supply expansion
module also supports its own standby battery and is supervised for the loss of AC, a low
battery condition, tamper input, the failure of its auxiliary output power, and the loss of
sounder loop integrity.
