Network Cabling
• The network cabling to keypads and expanders should be via a standard 4 core stranded, tinned annealed copper cable –
BS4737:2015 Type 2 – 7/0.2 refers.
• In certain circumstances it maybe be necessary to use a screened copper alarm cable. If used, the screen must be connected to
earth only at the control panel.
• When connecting remote keypads and expanders to the network – use ‘Daisy Chain’, ‘Star’ configuration, or both wiring options,
for connection to the panel.
• In order to maintain voltage on network cables, the cores used for power can be doubled. NEVER double up the cores used for the
network data.
• The network cables must only be used for the network. Spare cores should not be used for other devices such as extension speakers.
• The use of Cat5 cables for the network is not permissible for new installations. However, in the event of a panel replacement –
where Cat5 cable has been used for the network of the redundant system, it can be utilised but must be documented - (UK ONLY)
* Where CAT5 cable is used – the Transmit and Receive data cables must be from separate pairs – ‘use one, lose one’.
DO NOT use the same pair for T and R.
• The usage of low grade TCCA (Tinned Copper Clad Aluminium) cable can have a detrimental effect on the operation of the system
and the cable distances specified in the Installation manual.
Connecting Devices to the Network
CABLE DISTANCES
• Before connecting keypads, zone expanders and output modules, isolate ALL The table below shows maximum cable runs when one
power from the control panel (AC Mains & Battery). keypad or expander is installed using standard 7/0.2
alarm cable with various loads:
• The networks are made up of four terminals incorporating power and data. To
ensure correct operation, all four terminals on the device must be connected to
the corresponding terminals on the control panel, or previous device.
In certain circumstances it may be necessary to use pull up resistors. Constant network errors, devices dropping of off networks, or
the use of poor quality cable can all be helped by utilising resistors to "pull" the network up. making sure that errors in data flow are
minimised. The diagram below details the type and placement of the resistors.

The reading obtained should be almost identical to the
previous reading.
A difference of more than 1.2VAC means an Earth fault may
exist.

iD Technology allowed the engineer to daisy chain his
iD Technology detection devices together, on one or two loops, by
introducing into each device, what is referred to as a
‘biscuit’. This small device goes into each detector and
identifies it for the panel to see. It may be the 6 th device
on the loop that goes active, but the information travels
all the way back through the loop and other devices and
the panel will report it as Zone 6 – active.
Designed for use with the Premier Elite proximity tags. The Premier External
iProx Coil allows the user to disarm the alarm system externally.
The unit can also function as a single door access controller, by using it as a
stand alone module with the Premier Elite iProx.

Factors Affecting Wireless Signals
Because wireless signals travel through the atmosphere, they are susceptible to different types of interference
than standard wired networks.
Interference Types
Wireless interference is an important consideration when you’re planning a wireless network. Interference is
unfortunately inevitable, but the trick is to minimise the levels of interference.
The following are some factors that cause interference:
• Physical Objects
Trees, masonry, buildings, and other physical structures are some of the most common sources of interference.
The density of the materials used in a building’s construction determines the number of walls the RF signal can pass
through and still maintain adequate coverage. Concrete and steel walls are particularly difficult for a signal to pass through.
These structures will weaken or at times completely prevent wireless signals.
• Electrical Interference
Electrical interference comes from devices such as computers, refrigerators, fans, lighting fixtures, or any other
motorised devices. The impact that electrical interference has on the signal depends on the proximity of the
electrical device to the wireless access point. Advances in wireless technologies and in electrical devices have reduced
the impact that these types of devices have on wireless transmissions.
• Environmental factors
Weather conditions can have a huge impact on wireless signal integrity. Lightning, for example, can cause
electrical interference, and fog can weaken signals as they pass through.
NOTE:
METAL and
WIRELESS
doesn’t mix!
• Always avoid fixing wireless devices
directly onto metal surfaces.
If a Premier Elite 32XP-W expander is on the system we have the problem of having to show 32 pieces of information on the bottom
line of the keypad display. Unfortunately, the bottom line of the keypad only has 16 spaces for this.
So that we can show the information for all 32 devices, we put the devices into pairs.
If the expander is addressed as Exp 1 on the system the wireless zones will be Zones 9 through to Zone 40. Therefore, the first pair
is Zone 9 and Zone 10.
If the display on the keypad is as below, we can work out how many devices Zone 9 can communicate with and, if we want to, which
devices they are?
The simple equation is:-
Zone 009 PIR
an E (even numbered device in a pair) or an O (odd numbered device in the pair) = 1 device
EBOBBEOBBOEEBO_E A B (both devices in the pair) = 2 devices
Therefore: Zone 9 can communicate with 22 of the 32 devices
WIRELESS – DETECTOR FEATURES
RICOCHET DEVICE MODE – ‘SLEEP’ MODES
NOTE: Sleep modes are automatically assigned to the device as they are learned to the system
ALWAYS AWAKE
• This mode should only be used on devices which are required to signal at all times. This is the default sleep setting for:-
• Impaq Door Contact-W, Impaq Shock Plus-W, Premier Elite Micro Door Contacts-W, Premier Elite Micro Shock-W
HYBRID
• Hybrid mode is used to control the reporting functions for devices. When in the mode devices are asleep when the system is set, and are woken up by the control
panel at the point of arming. When the system is disarmed the devices will be put back to sleep. This default sleep setting is for:-
• Premier Elite DT-W
AUTO
• When in Auto Mode, devices will sleep for 3 minutes after transmitting a signal. They need 3 minutes with NO movement. This is the default sleep setting for:-
• Premier Elite XT-W, Premier Elite QD-W, Premier Compact PW-W, Premier Compact-W, Premier Compact QD-W, Premier External TD-W,
Premier360QD-W
DEVICE SPECIFIC
• This device mode is used for devices with particular operating requirements. Warning devices and safety devices would use a Device Specific mode, which
should not be altered. This default sleep setting is for:-
• Premier Elite Odyssey 1 to 5 External Sounder-W, Premier Elite Odyssey 5Ci-W Internal Sounder, Premier Elite OH-W, Premier Elite CO-W,
