Terminal Descriptions
(For US Market Only)
AC - Supervised, the PC5204 requires a 16.5V/37VA or 16V/40VA trans-
former. Connect the primary of the transformer to an unswitched AC
source (maximum current draw is 0.5A) and connect the secondary of the
transformer (US market only) to these terminals.
AUX+ - This terminal is used to provide power for devices & modules.
Please refer to Table 1 for maximum ratings.
Connect the positive lead of powered devices to AUX and the negative to
the proper output terminal (O1 to O4).
TAM - This can be used to tamper the cabinet in which the PC5204 is
mounted. Connect a normally closed (NC) switch across TAM and BLK. If
the tamper is not being used connect a piece of wire across TAM and BLK
to remove the trouble condition.
Keybus- The 4-wire Keybus connection is used by the panel to communi-
cate with the module. Connect the RED, BLK, YEL & GRN terminals to the
RED, BLK, YEL & GRN Keybus terminals on the PC50X0 control panel.
O1 to O4 - Wire the positive lead of the device
to the AUX terminal and the negative lead to
the required output terminal O1 to O4).
IMPORTANT NOTE:

FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Digital Security Con-
trols could void your authority to use this equipment.
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed
and used properly, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions,
may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested
and found to comply with the limits for Class B device in accordance with the
specifications in Subpart "B" of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference in any residential instal-
lation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a par-
ticular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to television or
radio reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
-
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
+
following measures:
• Re-orient the receiving antenna
• Relocate the alarm control with respect to the receiver
• Move the alarm control away from the receiver
• Connect the alarm control into a different outlet so that alarm control and
receiver are on different circuits.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/televi-
sion technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the following
booklet prepared by the FCC useful: "How to Identify and Resolve Radio/Tele-
vision Interference Problems". This booklet is available from the U.S. Govern-
ment Printing Office, Washington D.C. 20402, Stock # 004-000-00345-4.
