An extended serial communication cable must not exceed 20 meters. Alarm panels can be connected to terminal block J, J and J shown in Figure The labelling of the individual terminals corresponds to the labelling in TTC. In order to prepare the cable for mounting, start by removing 12 cm. Figure 28 Preparation of cable for alarm panels Make sure the cable screen is proper folded around the cable isolation before mounting. Start by fastening the cable firmly in the cable relief bracket of the TTC before mounting the individual wires.

Then cut each wire 1. Remove 5 mm. An example is shown in Figure B or newer, refer to the label on the side of the top cover. Figure 30 Location of connector J The cable used should be shielded twisted pair 2x2x0. The total length of the cable from termination to termination should not exceed meters and the length from TTC to either end of the cable should not exceed meter. The cable screen should only be connected at the TTC. Please note, that J only accepts wires with a cross section of up to 0.

The individual units can be connected to the string using short stubs with a maximum length of 5m as shown in Figure A setup as shown in Figure 31 can be made using commercially available DeviceNet cable components. For more information on this solution please refer to Appendix D. Another kind of wiring is the one shown in Figure There are two pins for each signal in the DSUB9 connectors, thus soldering of each wire in the cable can be performed in a robust manner, provided the cable is not too thick.

Pin 6 are internally connected to pin 5 via a termination resistor of Make sure the cable shield is firmly connected to TTC using the cable relief brackets. Make sure, that the twisted pairs are actually twisted all the way to the terminal strip.

In case one of the APs are located less than 50 meters from the interconnection box, a setup as shown in Figure 33 can be used in order to save an extra power supply unit. In the following sections the interface to the E Message Terminal is described. The power input connector is a standard 15 pin SubD male connector, located on the rear panel of the TTE and the pin assignments are as indicated in Table The wire color codes are as given in Table The communication parameters are factory programmed to: COM1, speed Baud, 8 databits, no parity, 1 stopbit.

Alternatively these settings may be customer defined. The pin assignment for the two communication ports are identical. The printer port connector is located on the rear panel. TTE Keyboard does normally not require any separate grounding.

Figure 36 illustrates the dimension of the panel cut-out and position of mounting holes when mounting the TTE Message Terminal in a console. Figure 36 Mounting holes for TTE Figure 37 illustrates the position of the mounting holes for the mounting bracket. In case TTA and TTE are turned off, the Transceiver will hold the incoming messages in the internal memory for at approximately 48 hours for later Hard Coping.

The enclosed standard cable allows the printer to be located up to 1. A special low impedance cable is available for printer locations up to 20 meters from the Message Terminal.

The printer connector is located on the rear panel. The interface conforms to a standard Centronics type interface. A mounting plate is supplied with the TTA Hard Copy Printer, for horizontally oriented secured mounting see section 4.

This enables the printer to signal an advanced warning of a paper low condition, when the paper roll is almost empty. The printer continues to work, and "Printer almost out of paper" message is displayed by the message terminal.

When a "Printer almost out of paper" condition occur the audio alarm will sound and the fault indication on any connected alarm panel will be switched on - these indications continues until the paper roll is replaced. If the printer is set off-line using the "select" button or powered off using the power switch, the audio alarm and the fault indication in the alarm panels will be switched on.

The DIP switch can be accessed by removing the switch cover from the back of the printer. A distress alert can be initiated by pressing the Distress button for five seconds. The outline and dimensions for a flush mounted AP are shown in Figure Panel Mounting Bracket. Figure 44 Outline and dimensions - flush mount The drilling template is shown in Figure 45 and the 3 dimensional assembly drawing is shown in Figure Connect a grounding wire between the ships structure and AP by using the dedicated grounding point found on the rear panel of the alarm panel.

The grounding wire should have a cross section of at least 0. The pin-out is shown in Table For further information concerning wiring of the communication interface, please refer to section 4. The connector marked Power is used for: 1 Connecting power to the internal electronics of the alarm panel the isolated RS interface is powered through connector Inm-C.

As up to four APs can be connected to the same cable, they need to have their own unique address in the rang The pin-out of the Power connector is shown in Table Table 13 Pinout of "Power" connector on AP 4. Connect 24VDC between Power pin 6 negative and pin 7 positive. Do not connect the shield of the power supply cable at the alarm panel. It should be connected to ground at the source only. With full activity the maximum current will be around 36mA 24VDC.

Note 1: The unit is internally protected against reverse polarity. Subsequent APs need to get the address pins strapped according to Table Normally there is no need to access the RS service interface, but in case its necessary, the easiest method is to make a cable adapter as shown in Figure Pressing and holding the Test button will make all light indicators and the alarm button flash.

Pressing any other button while holding the Test button, will sound the buzzer enabling verification of the buttons and the audible indicator. Figure 48 System detected, unit ready.

A Distress Alert can be initiated by pressing the Distress button for five seconds. Included in the box is a Distress Relay, which makes it possible to control an external alarm panel. The function of the relay can be selected by setting two internal jumpers according to the specifications in Table 18 TTC Technical Specifications.

In case jumper W1 is set to enable the Distress Relay, it will be activated upon reception of a SafetyNet Message with distress priority. The light intensity of the green power indicator can be adjusted by a knob below it. C onsole mounting hole A Screw : holes for w mounting, 4 all B Screw : holes for console mounting, 4.
