Orbit Manufacturing ORBIT-6 RP-206 Utility Outputs Locations, Location 19 Zone 6 Tamper Zone

Location: 18 Zone 5: (2nd Digit): Sound

Default: External Sounder (Pulses)

For fire zone the recommended (default) zone sound is “External sounder pulsed” However it is possible to change the zone sound and type to any of the ones provided in the previous list.

Location: 19 Zone 6: Tamper Zone

Zone 6 is reserved as a Tamper Zone. This zone can be programmed to any zone type (except Fire) including Tamper. If the zone was programmed as Tamper, in violation, a Tamper Code report will be sent and the Tamper LED on the keypad (marked as 6/Tmp) will light up.

UTILITY OUTPUTS: LOCATIONS 22-25

The ORBIT-6 supports one open collector Utility Output (derived between the UO/ECL and AUX terminals) which can be used for switching an external device on or off. Once the Utility Output is activated the device will be connected between AUX (+12V) and ground (0V). This connection is capable of switching light loads of no more than 70mA.

Note: When activated the utility output is switched to the Negative Polarity.

The “UO” can be also used to reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s). In that case the 12V power to the smoke detector will be supplied via the UO (see Figures 1A and 1B). The UO should be defined as AUX switch.

If the Utility Output Expansion Module is being used, the same information in Location 22 is applicable for the programming of UO2 (Location 23), UO3 (Location 24), and/or UO4 (Location 25). It is not necessary to program all of the available “UOs”, unless they’re used. Note that when the Utility Output Expansion Module is employed, the original Utility Output on the Main Board (the UO/ECL terminal) is no longer available.

Important: In order to use the Utility Output Expansion you have to define the module in Location 30.

22

If more than one “UO” output is necessary, a Utility Output Expansion Module is available. Its four “UOs” (U01, UO2, UO3, and UO4) replace the ORBIT-6’s single “on-board ”UO”. The “UOs” on the Utility Output Expansion Module are relay-based, and allow a maximum current of 500 mAs. Refer to Figures 1A and 1B (pages 32 and 33), for wiring instructions and additional information. The figure at the right, shows how a Utility Output on the “UO Expander” can be used to switch a table lamp on and off.

Because of the “UO’s” modest 70 mA current capability, it will be necessary to use an “intermediate” relay-whose physical contacts can switch far greater currents (limited by their contact rating). The figure at the left shows how such a relay can trigger a strobe light. If used in this manner, the “UO”cannot be used to reset a “latched” Smoke Detector(s).
