3.2.2 LED Board
The LED Board has 10 LEDs which are each comprised of 3 RGB LEDs, 3 sub-LEDs per every 1 Multi-
color LED. The LED Board also has a small momentary switch, which is a push button; only Field Service
is expected to use this interface.
3.2.3 Speaker
NS40 features an audio speaker, which is distinctly different from a piezo type "buzzer". Read more about
the Speaker in section 4.6.
3.2.4 USB Devices
One (1) USB Bluetooth module (dongle) comes standard. However, NS40 does not come with WiFi dongle
pre-installed. So if WiFi is plannd, it’s necessary to upgrade the planned master.
NS40 does NOT support Cell Modem (due to the large size of the Cell Modem, there is no space for the
device to fit).
3.3 EAS Sensor (TR4300 board)
The TR4300 (CKP P/N 10053101) is a TX/RX transceiver we call "EAS Sensor" or
"TR4300 board."
The EAS Sensor gives rise to the EAS Detection System. To successfully detect real
alarm events and not trigger due to “phantoms,” the EAS Sensor has electronic tuning and
digital signal processing. RF tuning is outside the scope of this document.
There are no jumpers on the TR4300. Like earlier "Evolve" main boards, the TR4300 has
an FPGA (field programmable gate array) with processor and memory functions. Metal
Shields are equipped (separate shields for Rx and Tx circuit sections). Manufacturing
ensures tightness. With the NEO Controller, there are no pre-installed connectors. Field
Service is responsible for installing the cable assemblies in the correct ports.
The TR4300 board is mounted in a subassembly referred to as the "Cage" or sometimes
"Board Carrier" (also "PCBA" for PCB Assembly). The entire cage is the spare. See Table
4-2 for the spare or upgrade part numbers (SAP Material code).
