Product specifications

Note: There should be minimal wire slack at all connection points.
a) Strip approximately 1 inch (25 mm) of cable outer jacket to be terminated in terminal blocks. Then
strip approximately 0.25 inches (6 mm) of insulation off of each individual wire.
b) Refer to Wiring section and Tables 2A, 2B and 2C to make all connections to terminal blocks TB1
(power), TB2 (alarms), TB3 (relays/control signals) and TB4 (UTP video). On TB3, the COMMAND IN
+ (COMM IN +) and COMMAND IN - (COMM IN -) connections must be used for Simplex operation.
For Half Duplex operation, the additional signals RESPONSE OUT + (RESP OUT +) and
RESPONSE OUT - (RESP OUT -) must also be used. Insert each wire into its terminal block location
and tighten the screw.
c) Terminate the video (coaxial) cable with a BNC type male connector, if not done previously. Refer to
Wiring section for video connections for fiber-optic, twisted pair or ViconNet optional video
transmissions.
d) Terminate the 8-conductor alarm cable and the relay/control signals cable.
Skip step 6 for cable use with flexible conduit.
6. Loosen flipper screws and remove enclosure from ceiling. Slide cables back through fitting until terminal
blocks are flush with the bottom of enclosure, approximately 9 inches (229 mm). Tighten conduit fitting
and reinstall enclosure into ceiling by tightening flippers.
7. Install the terminal blocks TB1, TB2 and TB3 (and TB4) into the Customer Interface Board at the proper
block frames. Install the video BNC cable connector to the Customer Interface Board’s mating BNC
connector at location J1 (for standard coax installations); for UTP installations, connect twisted-pair video
wires to screw terminal TB4. See Wiring section for video connections for fiber-optic and ViconNet
versions. Swing up interface board to latch board into place. If interface board was completely removed,
be sure to reinstall it correctly, with the white connector near the wall of the enclosure. Dress cables up
over board to ensure there is no excess cable hanging past the board.
8. Configure the SurveyorVFT communication/protocol and address DIP switches on the main board at this
time. See Setting the DIP Switch section of this manual.
