INTRODUCTION
This installation guide is intended as an aid to installing the Model 17A00 Expansion Enclosure.
The Model 17A00 Expansion Enclosure adds additional zone inputs and voltage outputs to an OmniPro
or OmniPro II automation controller. The installer should thoroughly review and understand the
Owner's Manual for the applicable system, which contains important information regarding proper
configuration of the controller for use with the Model 17A00 Expansion Enclosure.
This manual assumes that the installer has a basic understanding of installing a security system.
In Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) Listed Installations, failure to install the control unit and accessories
in accordance with UL Requirements, is a violation of the Listing Mark.
GENERAL
The Model 17A00 Expansion Enclosure is a self-contained unit that adds 16 zone inputs and 16 voltage
outputs to the controller. It contains its own power supply and battery backup, and it may be located up
to 1000 feet from the controller. It connects to the controller using a single two-conductor cable.
Each of the zone inputs may be used as a burglary zone, a fire zone, a temperature zone, or an auxiliary
input. Each zone may also be used for connection of a Model 1101 Programmable Energy Saver
Module (PESM).
The Expansion Enclosure provides 16 general-purpose voltage outputs. These voltage outputs can be
used to operate 12VDC relays or other low-voltage switching applications.
The built-in supervised power supply provides power for the internal circuitry and for auxiliary devices
connected to the Expansion Enclosure (Auxiliary 12VDC, Switched 12VDC, and Outputs 1-16).
INSTALLATION
The Expansion Enclosure should be located in an area that is protected from weather, temperature
extremes, and burglars. It should be mounted securely using screws and wall anchors, as appropriate.
An unswitched AC power outlet should be located nearby for the power transformer. The Expansion
Enclosure may be mounted up to 1000 feet from the controller.
POWER SUPPLY CONFIGURATION
In the normal power supply configuration, a wall-mount 24VAC 40VA transformer and 12V 7Ah
battery are used. This configuration provides both Aux12VDC and Sw12VDC power
that is backed-up by the batteries.
