Telephone Wiring

For telephone entry and programming, the AE1000Plus connects to a standard telephone line.

Important Telephone Wiring Tips

•DO NOT ROUTE TELEPHONE AND AC WIRING INSIDE THE SAME CONDUIT. Route all telephone wires inside a dedicated conduit that is at least six inches away from any AC line wiring.

•All telephone wiring must be made on the “building” side of the telephone company’s demarcation device (the terminal block where the telephone line connects to the building).

•If any security system or personal alert system at the installation is connected to the telephone line, be sure that it is connected to the line ahead of the AE1000Plus using a RJ-31X or RJ-38X interface.

•Use only high-quality telephone wire. All telephone wire should be twisted-pair with a minimum size of 24 AWG.

Typical Telephone Wiring

1A. If using the AE1000Plus modular connector for the telephone connection, connect a double-ended modular cable between the

TERMINALS

EARTH TIP RING

TO THE INCOMING DEDICATED TELEPHONE LINE

JACK

CONNECT TELEPHONE LINE TO TERMINALS OR TELEPHONE JACK

AE1000Plus PHONE jack and the modular telephone jack wired to the installation’s telephone line.

1B. If using the AE1000Plus terminal block for the telephone connection, before connecting the telephone line, check the polarity of the wires with a DC voltmeter. Connect the negative wire (usually green) to the RING terminal. Connect the positive wire (usually red) to the TIP terminal.

NOTE: THE EARTH TERMINAL CAN BE USED TO CONNECT TO THE TELEPHONE GROUND

Optional Radio Antenna

If wireless transmitters are going to be used in the system a remote antenna must be installed to provide reception for the AE1000Plus.

A basic antenna kit is supplied with the AE1000Plus. The kit contains a whip antenna, connector, and a 36” length of coax cable. The antenna connector should be mounted on a metal surface using a 3/8” hole.

Two other models of antennas are compatible with the AE1000Plus. The Model EXA-1000 is a non-directional antenna. The Model EXA-2000 is a directional antenna used in installations where transmitted signals are desired to be received only in a particular direction.

✦NOTE: Up to 50 feet of type RG-59 coax can be used to connect the antenna to the AE1000Plus. Keep the coax as short as possible.

1.Install the antenna. (See installation instructions if using the EXA-1000 or EXA-2000.)

2.Connect the antenna coax cable to the antenna and route the cable to the AE1000Plus.

3.Connect the cable to the AE1000Plus ANTENNA connector.

Receiver Range Control

The AE1000Plus has a RECEIVER RANGE adjustment knob. In some installations, it may be necessary to reduce the effective radio range of the receiver to limit the distance that transmitters can be used. Reducing the radio’s sensitivity may also help in installations where unwanted interference is overpowering signals from transmitters.

1.After the installation and system programming is complete, adjust the RECEIVER RANGE knob to suit the installation. Test transmitters from typical locations that they will be used. Set the radio range so the receiver can activate from transmitters from about 25% more distance than required.
