consumption limits, you can connect a local 12 VDC power supply to the AXlink connector.
Preparing Captive Wires
You will need a wire stripper and a
1.Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.
2.Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring diagrams in this section.
3.Turn the
Note: Do not over-torque the screw. Doing so can bend the seating pin.
Checking IR Data Status
Locate the red IR Data LED on the front of the unit (FIG. 1). Point the system's AMX transmitter towards the sensor and press a button. The IR Data LED lights when the unit receives data.
If the IR Data LED does not light:
•Verify that the transmit LED on the transmitter lights when you press a button.
•Check the wiring to the unit.
•Verify that the transmitter frequency is properly configured.
Checking AXlink Status
The AXlink LED lights to indicate AXlink power/data status as follows:
• 1 blink per second Indicates power is active and AXlink communication is working.

If you install the unit farther from the Central Controller than recommended in this table, connect an external 12 VDC power supply, as shown in FIG. 7.
Connection and Wiring
Wiring the AXR-IRSM+ AXlink
Install the AXlink data/power bus wiring as shown in FIG. 6.
• | 2 blinks per second | Indicates the devices specified in the Master program do not match the |
|
| devices found. |
• 3 blinks per second | Indicates AXlink communication error. | |
• | Full On | Indicates the following conditions: |
|
| • There is no AXlink control or activity, but power is On. |
|
| • The Axcess program is not loaded. |
If the LED is On and not flashing, disconnect the AXlink connector and recheck all AXlink connections. Then, reconnect the AXlink connector to the panel and verify the LED is flashing once per second.
