5.11 Isolated RS232 Interface PCB
The ID2000 Series Isolated RS232 Interface PCB
(PN: 124-300) enables connection of the ID2000 Series
Fire Control Panel to an external printer, terminal or third-
party-protocol station. The Isolated RS232 Interface PCB
is located adjacent to and at the left-hand side of the Base
PCB. The PCB is secured in position using one metal spacer
and SEM screw and three nylon spacers all provided with
the Isolated RS232 Interface PCB kit (PN: 020-478).
CAUTION:
This RS232 port is intended for connection to
external equipment such as a printer, terminal
or 3rd party protocol equipment. All such
equipment must be suitably protected against
electric shock. Voltages on the interconnections
must not exceed 42V peak or 60V dc under
normal or single fault conditions.
To fit the Isolated RS232 Interface PCB follow the
instructions below. Only one Isolated RS232 Interface PCB
is supported.
Before starting, make sure you have a PC back-up
of the panel’s current configuration data.
Ensure you take appropriate anti-static precautions
before undertaking this procedure.
With the front cover moulding(s) removed and power
disconnected, proceed as follows:
1
Using a suitable-sized coin, release the two quarter-
turn fasteners (A) located at the left-hand side of the
main chassis front door (B). Open the door to gain
access to the main chassis’ PCB enclosure (C)
containing the Base PCB (D).
2
Fit the metal spacer (E) through the Base PCB to the
top left fixing position of either PCB mounting location
(F). Tighten down fully using a 5.5mm Hex socket tool.
3
Fit the three supplied nylon snap-top spacers (G)
through the Base PCB by pushing them firmly into
place until they snap into position.
4
Observing anti-static precautions, remove the RS232
Interface PCB from its packaging. If, after inspection,
no damage has occurred in transit and with it correctly
orientated, carefully offer the PCB to the three snap-
top spacers. Take care when doing this to avoid
damaging the PCB. Working in a clockwise direction,
carefully push the PCB onto the snap-top spacers
(positions H) until the PCB is secure.
5
Use the M3 x 8mm SEM screw (I) to secure the Isolated
RS232 Interface PCB to the metal spacer (position J).
6
Make the necessary wiring connections to the Isolated
RS232 Interface PCB - see details below.
7
If no other PCBs require fitting, close and secure the
main chassis front door, re-connect mains power and
the batteries and replace the front cover moulding(s).
8
To replace the Isolated RS232 Interface PCB, first
reverse the above procedure, steps 4 to 7, and then
fit the replacement Isolated RS232 Interface PCB
using steps 4 to 7.
