RUI Wiring (4100U)

Overview	The TIC must be connected to the host panel via RUI cabling. This section explains how
	to wire the two together, and how to set up a system with multiple transponders connected
	to the same host panel.
Wiring
	RUI cabling can be accomplished either through Class A or Class B wiring.
Configurations

Figure 4-4. The

Ferrite Bead

Class A wiring allows transponder cabinets to communicate with the FACP even in the event of an open circuit somewhere in the loop. Class A wiring requires that two wires are routed from the CPU motherboard to each TIC, and then back again to the CPU motherboard.

Class B wiring allows “T” tapping, and therefore requires less wiring distance per installation than Class A. Additionally, Class B wiring does not require end-of-line resistors, because each TIC communicates directly to the CPU.

Note: Use supplied ferrite beads with TICs. Loop wires once through the supplied ferrite bead(s) as shown in Figure 4-4.

The illustration below shows both types of wiring.

•Wire size must be

between 18 AWG (0.8231 mm2) and 12 AWG (3.309 mm2).

•Maximum wiring distance: 2,500 feet (762 m).

•Maximum “T” tapping length:

10,000 feet (3,048 m).

•Maintain correct polarity on terminal connections.

•Do not loop wires under terminals.
