Analog Input Wiring
ControlKeeper® TouchScreen Logic Board
Digital switches do not wire directly to the ControlKeeper T
panel, but are wired to a CAN Bus network that connects to
the ControlKeeper T through a GDS-I device. Digital switch
devices should be networked together in a daisy-chain
configuration. No T-Taps/Stars should be used. The GDS-I
device should reside somewhere within the daisy-chain
switch network. Total daisy-chain network length should not
exceed 1000 feet.
The following instructions describe the GDS-I device
connection to the ControlKeeper T. Please refer to the Digital
Switch Installation Instructions for information on wiring the
Digital Switch Network to the Digital Switch Gateway.
1. Mount the GDS-I next to the ControlKeeper T panel.
A six foot phone style cable has been provided for
connection to the ControlKeeper T panel.
2. Run a length of the digital switch LC or Belden cabling
from the GDS-I location to the low voltage section of
the ControlKeeper T.
3. Connect the RED wire in the cable to the +V terminal
on the back of the GDS-I and to the ControlKeeper T at
one of the switch input +24 VDC terminals.
4. Connect the BLACK wire in the cable to the GND
terminal on the back of the GDS-I and to the
ControlKeeper T remote power connector GND
terminal.
5. Tape back or cap the blue and white wires and shield
wire for the cable. They will not be used for connection
between the GDS-I and lighting controller.
6. Locate the six foot phone style cable included in the
GDS-I box. Run this from the GDS-I into the low voltage
section of the ControlKeeper T enclosure plugging the
end with 9 pin head into the GDS-I. Plug the end the
RJ11 phone style plug into the ControlKeeper T.
7. Ensure that the local remote jumpers have been moved
to the local position (over pins 2&3) for both jumpers.
(J9 & J10) to enable 24 VDC to the low voltage switch
channels. See Figure 3 for location.

Analog Input Wiring
This section describes the wiring for analog input devices.
There are four analog input wiring terminals on the left side
of the ControlKeeper T to allow for wiring of the analog
input devices. Analog Input devices must have a 0-10 VDC
output for use with these channels. Please refer to the
documentation that came with your device for information
on proper placement and installation of the device. These
instructions describe the wiring of the device at the panel
end, assuming that the devices are analog photosensors
that have been purchased from Greengate. Please contact
technical support if you are using a device not purchased
from Greengate to verify compatibility and wiring to the
Greengate system.
1. Use 18 AWG twisted, unshielded wire for all low
voltage analog input device wiring.
2. Maximum length for analog input device wiring is
500 feet.
3. Wire the signal wire (yellow wire) to one of the
terminals labeled AN1, AN2, AN3 or AN4.
4. Wire the ground wire (black wire) to the corresponding
COM channel located below the Analog signal
channels.
5. Wire the +24V wire (red wire) to one of the switch
c24V pins to power the sensor.
6. Ensure that the local remote jumpers have been moved
to the local position (over pins 2 & 3) for both jumpers
(J9 & J10) to enable 24 VDC to the low voltage switch
channels. See Figure 4 for location.
7. Please see wiring detail in Figure 4 for details on
connections of a Greengate provided analog photocell
to the ControlKeeper T system.

Network Wiring Notes
The ControlKeeper T is designed to communicate with
other ControlKeeper network panels using a lighting control
RS-485 network for communications. This allows the panels
to share information back and forth as well as allows the
system to be programmed from one central location by a
computer with the optional Keeper Enterprise Software.
