DESCRIPTION The ListenIn is an optional unit that when added to the Advantage plus Base Module gives the system the ability to support sixteen additional audio verification sensors (Advantage AudioSensors or Advantage GlassBreaks). The Advantage plus Base Module can interface and control up to eight ListenIn Modules. Location information is not stored for ListenIn module sensors. UL Listing for this module covers device compatibility as an accessory only. The audio verification performance of this module has not been investigated by UL. INSTALLATION LISTENIN MODULE OPTIONS NOTE: The following details only those options required to install the ListenIn Module hardware. See the "SONICS Database Management Manual" (P/N 09820426) for complete options programming procedures. 1. In the SONICS Modify-ASOP-Equipment screen, select the ListenIn Module and enter the number of ListenIn Modules installed. 2. In the Modify-ASOP-Audio-Detector/Preamp screen, specify "LIM" as the audio module type, then enter ListenIn Module number (1-8). This number MUST match the address set on the module during installation. CALCULATING BATTERY STANDBY Before installation you must add the ListenIn Module's Normal Standby and Alarm current (30 mA), and both the normal and alarm current drawn by all connected Advantage AudioSensors (5 mA each), and Advantage GlassBreaks (12 mA Standby, 26 mA Alarm) to the power source's standby battery calculations. To properly calculate the backup battery capacity you MUST evaluate the Normal Standby and the Alarm current required by the connected devices. Calculate the connected devices' Ampere-Hour requirements using the following factors: · the total standby load · hours of required standby operation · the required duration of alarm signaling (normally 4 minutes for residential fire, 15 minutes for commercial burglary). NOTE: See the "Advantage plus Installation Instructions" (P/N 09820450) for complete details. CABINET AND MODULE INSTALLATION CAUTION! DO NOT INSTALL THE POWERSOURCE WHERE THE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW 0°F OR RISES ABOVE 122°F. UL HAS NOT EVALUATED OPERATION BELOW 32° F Unless the ListenIn Module is powered from a remote power supply, mount the enclosure next to a standard 120VAC outlet to simplify AC wiring. See Figure 1 for the possible cabinet layout and do the following: 1. Match the holes in each optional module with the holes in the rear of the chassis. Install the required number of standoffs by pressing them in from the back of the cabinet. 2. Using the cabinet as a guide, mark the top two mounting hole locations on the mounting surface. 3. Mount the top screws and place the cabinet keyholes on the screws. Tighten the top screws and secure the cabinet with the bottom screws. 4. Mount the ListenIn Module on the nylon standoffs installed in step #1. 5. Mount any additional modules inside the cabinet on the nylon standoffs installed in step #1. 1 Downloaded from - http://www.guardianalarms.net SYSTEM GROUNDING 90228 REV SAM LISTENIN 90231 NOTE: All Advantage plus modules isolate earth ground from signal ground. This is done to meet UL requirements, and allows all modules to share the same signal ground when there may be a large difference in potential between earth grounds. Earth ground must remain isolated from signal ground. ListenIn Module S/N: Earth Ground Wiring SmartAudio Module APS12V1A-S Battery WARNING! IF USING THE 115 VAC, 43 VA OPEN FRAME TRANSFORMER DO NOT CONNECT AN EXTERNAL EARTH GROUND TO THE CHASSIS EARTH GROUND STUD. THE ELECTRICAL GROUND AT THE OPEN FRAME TRANSFORMER ACTS AS THE EARTH GROUND IN THIS CHASSIS. NOTE: Always install Earth Ground wiring per Article 250 of the National Electrical Code. Connect one end of a heavy gauge wire (12 gauge solid recommended) to a known good earth ground. Keep the distance from the earth ground as short as possible, with no sharp bends. Strip the other end of the earth ground wire and crimp it into the lug supplied in the installation kit. Secure the lug, along with the ListenIn Module Earth Ground lead to the chassis stud located on the left side of the chassis. Tighten the screw, ensuring all wires make a good connection. NOTE: Also connect the Earth Ground leads of all other optional modules installed inside the chassis to the chassis earth ground stud. The earth ground provides the modules protection against static electrical shocks and high power surges. It also provides a convenient earth ground connection for additional lightning protection. Base Module ListenIn Module APS12V1A-S Battery Battery Bonding Signal Grounds The signal ground of all interconnected modules must always be bonded together. Bonding the signal grounds of interconnected modules greatly reduces communication problems and lightning damage. The bonding conductor should follow the data bus (RS-485) wherever it goes. You can accomplish this using a spare wire inside an interconnecting cable, the cable's drain wire, or a shield of the individually twisted pair, individually shielded RS-485 data cable. Signal ground connections are found at J1 pins 1 an 2 and labeled "GND" on the ListenIn Module (this is NOT Earth Ground). If using a cable shield for bonding, terminate the shield to a short length of insulated 22 AWG wire before punching down to a GND pin on J1. NOTE: See each module's installation instructions for the appropriate bonding connections.

Figure 1. Advantage plus Enclosure Layout Audio signals from sensors connected to ListenIn Modules are sent to the Base Module over the audio bus using a twisted, individually shielded, wire pair. Each ListenIn Module provides an audio input (labeled IN AU) connection and a separate audio output (labeled OUT AU) connection. Signals on the output pair of a ListenIn Module include any audio from selected ListenIn Module audio sensor inputs, and any audio signals coming into the ListenIn Module on its audio input connection. The incoming audio could be from another ListenIn Module or SmartAudio Module on the audio bus. 2 Audio out to Base Module or next SmartAudio or ListenIn Module. Data to next RS-485 device.

Advantage plus ListenIn Module Installation Diagram The only acceptable method for data bus and audio bus wiring uses two cables having two individually twisted pairs, each pair individually shielded. One cable for the RS-485 and power, and the other for the audio bus. We DO NOT recommend running both the audio bus and the data bus inside the same cable. Doing so can result in the RS-485 data being audible in the audio. Use the data bus cable's drain wire for a bonding conductor (see "Bonding Signal Grounds" earlier in these instructions). NOTE: RS-485 cable runs of less than 30 feet should not require individually twisted pair cable. ListenIn Power Supervision (J1 pins 4 and 6) If being powered from an Advantage PowerSource, you may wire and option the ListenIn Module to monitor the power supply. NOTE: UL Certificated systems require that the ACLOSS and LOWBAT lines be in the same room and less than 30 feet from the unit they are connected to. Connect the PowerSource's ACLOSS output (J2 pin 3) to ListenIn Module J1 pin 6 (labeled NAC). This connection monitors the PowerSource for AC power loss, which the LCD keypad immediately displays. Connect the PowerSource's LOWBAT output (J2 pin 4) to ListenIn Module J1 pin 4 (labeled LBT). This connection monitors the PowerSource for a low battery condition. ListenIn Jack J1 ListenIn Power (J1 pins 1 and 12) Connect ListenIn Module power at J1 pin 11 or 12 for +12 VDC, and J1 pin 1 or 2 for power supply GND. This power can be obtained from the Base Module or from an optional Advantage PowerSource (P/N APS12V1A-S). ListenIn Tamper Input (J1 pins 7 and 8) If a tamper switch is used on the enclosure (for remote applications) or using the Advantage AudioSensor and GlassBreak tamper switches, connect the two tamper switch wires to ListenIn Module J1, pins 7 and 8. 3 Audio IN/OUT (J1 Pins 9-10 and J2 Pins 1-2) IMPORTANT! YOU MUST USE INDIVIDUALLY TWISTED PAIR SHIELDED CABLES FOR AUDIO AND RS-485 DATA. RUNNING DATA AND AUDIO IN THE SAME CABLE CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS DATA NOISE IN THE AUDIO SIGNAL. The ListenIn Module sends it's audio signal to the Base Module on the ListenIn Module's OUT AU pair (J2 pins 1 and 2). This connection goes to the IN AU pair (J1 pins 9 and 19) on the next ListenIn Module (or SmartAudio Module) in the Base Module direction, or to an AU+ and AU- pair on the Base Module. IN AU and OUT AU connections cannot be paralleled! Serious audio degradation will result. Use the following guidelines when running cables for an RS-485 communication link: · Never exceed 2,000 feet from the Base Module · Always use 22 AWG, individually twisted pair, individually shielded cable. (See Note below) · Always observe the proper polarity when making connections (e.g., DAT+ to DAT+ and DAT- to DAT-). · Always verify the proper RS-485 address jumper settings on each module or device. · Always use the cable's drain wire, one of the cable's spare wires, or a shield to bond the signal grounds (NOT earth grounds) of the interfacing modules. NOTE 1: RS-485 cable runs of less than 30 feet should not require individually twisted pair cable. Although RS-485 is commonly considered a two-wire differential communication, it is imperative that the signal grounds of the interfacing modules be bonded together. This common signal ground provides an overall reference level, eliminating most RS-485 communications problems. When running RS-485 cables to several modules or devices you can use both daisy chain and star configurations (see Figure 3). ListenIn Jack J2 Address Jumpers (J1 pins 6 through 11) Set the ListenIn Module's data bus address by jumping pin pairs on Panduit connector J2. They are labeled 1 (J2-7 and J2-8), 2 (J2-5 and J2-6), and 4 (J2-3 and J2-4). Refer to the Advantage plus options and jumper the ListenIn Module's address using Table 1 as your guide. Table 1.

Each ListenIn Module must have a unique address on the RS-485 bus. Always assign module addresses in a logical, consecutive order. Since Advantage plus uses a different message address for each module type, different module types can share addresses. In fact, assigning a common address to a node (remote physical chassis) can help simplify wiring and later servicing. NOTE: ListenIn Modules and SmartAudio Modules use the same message type, and therefore CANNOT have the same RS-485 address. For example, if a remote chassis contains an Expansion Module and a ListenIn Module, you can assign both the Expansion and ListenIn Modules as Module #1. In system diagrams and information you could refer to this entire remote chassis as node #1.

Typical RS-485 Cable Configurations AUDIOSENSOR PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS Listenback audio is useless if the operator cannot distinguish the sounds of a burglary from the ambient noise at the account. Therefore, always examine the facility to find the best AudioSensor locations. General AudioSensor placement rules are: 1. Mount AudioSensors on solid, non-vibrating surfaces. 2. The AudioSensor should always face toward the protected area and as much as possible, away from ambient noise sources. 3. Mount the AudioSensor as close as possible to the area being covered. 4. Mount AudioSensors high enough to avoid blockage, damage and tampering, but give more thought to sound factors. The ideal mounting height is 8 to 10 feet from the floor. Never exceed 13 feet unless special circumstances require such height. 5. Mount AudioSensors at least one foot away from corners and ceiling to wall junctions. DATA (J2 Pins 9 through 12) ListenIn Module J2 pins 9 through 12 are the RS-485 communication port connections. The RS-485 communications port gives Advantage plus its flexibility and expandability. The Base Module's RS-485 communication port can interface and control the following optional modules and devices: · any combination of up to sixteen LCD plus and LED plus keypads · eight alarm loop Expansion Modules · any combination of up to eight SmartAudio Modules and/ or ListenIn Modules · one Wireless Module · seven Access Modules 4 ListenIn Module AudioSensor Wiring Connect all audio sensors to ListenIn Module jacks J3 through J6, labeled AS1 through AS16. Audio sensors can include Advantage AudioSensors and Advantage GlassBreaks (see Figure 2). The ListenIn Module provides listen back and audio verification, not detection. The ListenIn Module provides +12 volts to the audio sensor's "V" pin only when audio is enabled by a loop alarm. Detection initiating devices like GlassBreak detectors therefore require special wiring. GlassBreak detectors require a continuous +12 volts when monitoring for breaking glass. This requires connecting the GlassBreak's +12 volt pin to the ListenIn Module's uninterrupted +12 volt source (J1-11 or J1-12) . An alternate method includes connecting the +12 volts as described above, and also connecting the GlassBreak's ground lead to a Base Panel auxiliary output. Option the Base auxiliary output active when the GlassBreak's associated zone is active. This sinks current from the GlassBreak only when it's zone is enabled. The ListenIn Module AudioSensor inputs can be assigned to any one of eight zones. If using Advantage GlassBreaks, use an Expansion Module or Base Module alarm loop to monitor the GlassBreak's alarm contacts. Each ListenIn Module AudioSensor input is labeled as follows: · V = +12 VDC · A = Audio · G = Ground Power, ground, and audio wiring is identical for all AudioSensors. When wiring AudioSensors to the ListenIn Module we suggest using a color code of Black (ground), Green (audio), and Red (+12VDC). Figure 2 shows examples of wiring using the standard (BLK, GRN, RED) color code. LISTENIN MODULE TEST PROCEDURES · · · On an LCD plus keypad connected to the Base Module, a "*" status command shows if any module is down. Listen to incoming and outgoing audio at the ListenIn Module IN AU and OUT AU pins on jacks J1 and J2. Listen to all incoming live audio at the Base Module's LAUD pin by connecting a handset between the LAUD pin (J7 pin 9) and GND (J7 pin 6). The audio at this pin includes audio from all SmartAudio and ListenIn Modules, as well as the audio from any AudioSensors connected to the Base Module.
