SD Advanced
The SD Advanced supports 20 normally open/closed tamper proof alarm inputs, or one Global 
keyswitch input with camera specic inputs congurable as entry/exit alarms. The alarms support 
tamper proof detection using 1k in line and 5K end of line resistance. The unit detects short circuit, 
open circuit and contact closure. This functionality is part of the advanced alarms supported on 
NetVu Connected products and includes features required for Central Monitoring. It is compatible 
with the British Standard BS8418.

End Of Line Circuitry
The following describes the EOL tamper alarms circuitry needed when EOL has been congured. 
There should be two resistive values within the tamper alarm circuitry. These must be located inside 
the alarm device (furthest point from the unit).
The alarm state could be Normally Open or Normally closed however the tamper states are the 
same for both settings.
Open, the resistive value is 6.8K ohms (1K + 5.6K).
Closed, the resistive value is 1K ohms, as the circuit does not see the 5.6K ohm resistor.
Open Circuit Tamper, the resistive value is innity as the circuit has been cut and 
therefore is ‘open’.
Short Circuit Tamper, the resistive value is 0 Ohms.
