RELAY OUTPUTS & POWERLINE CARRIER DEVICES

General Information

The VISTA-40 supports up to 8 relay outputs. These outputs may consist of relay

 

outputs from the 4204 output relay module (4 relay outputs per module) or X-10

 

device outputs. Outputs can be activated and deactivated by predetermined

 

events such as turning on lights in the event of an alarm condition and/or closing

 

a fire door in the event of a fire alarm condition. Refer to ÒRelay ProgrammingÓ in

 

Section 4 of PART 2. PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES for instructions on

 

programming relay options.

 

There are many different uses for relays, some of which are shown at the end of

 

this section.

4204 Relay Module

The 4204 Relay Module has 4 form C (normally open and normally closed

 

contacts) relays. Each relay can be used independently for different functions.

 

The 4204 is wired to the control's keypad terminals 6-9. Use standard 4-

 

conductor twisted cable (for long wire runs) or the connector supplied with the

 

4204. Each 4204 should be home run back to the panel. The maximum wire run

 

length from the panel to the 4204 must not exceed:

Wire Gauge

Maximum Length

#22

125

feet

#20

200

feet

#18

300

feet

#16

500

feet

The 4204's DIP switch must be set for a device address and that address must be enabled in the control's Device Programming mode.

Program the output relays using the control's *93 Menu Mode. Refer to ÒRelay ProgrammingÓ in Section 4 of PART 2. PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES for details.

4300 Transformer & When using X-10 devices, the 4300 transformer must be used instead of the XÐ10 Devices 1361 transformer shown on the Summary of Connections diagram. The 4300 provides AC power to the panel and relays signals from the panel through the

premises AC wiring to X-10 devices.

Run a 6-conductor cable between the 4300 interface and the panel. Splice this cable to a 4142TR cable as shown in the diagram below. Note that the white and yellow wires of the 4142TR must be spliced together.

X-10 devices plug into standard AC outlets and can be used to perform various functions. Be sure to set the proper house and unit IDs when using X-10 devices.

UL NOTE: X-10 devices and the 4300 are not UL Listed for fire or burglary functions and are intended only for home automation.
