D7212GV3 | Operation and Installation Guide | 2.0 Lightning Strikes
.
2.0 Lightning Strikes
The control panel is designed to significantly reduce
electromagnetic interference and malfunction
generally caused by lightning.
2.1 Effects
Any electronic system can be struck directly by
lightning or be adversely affected by a lightning strike
near the system. When lightning strikes, several
things happen:
•An electromagnetic wave spreads from the point
of the strike inducing high voltages in nearby
conductors.
•The voltage changes substantially on electrical
grounds near the lightning strike.
•High voltages are induced upon anything directly
struck by lightning.
Symptoms of installations that lightning might strike or
affect are Missing Trouble, Missing Alarm, or Point
Bus Trouble events. Occasionally, Reboot and
Watchdog events might be sent because the control
panel tried to reset itself.
Electronic systems, including control panels, cannot
be completely immune to direct or indirect lightning
strikes; however, some proven installation practices
might greatly reduce the risk of undesirable affects.
2.2 Precautions during Installation
To minimize the risk of undesirable effects from
lightning strikes on high risk installations that use a
point-bus technology:
• Do not run wiring outside the building.
• If you must install the unit in a metal building,
keep the wiring at least 2 ft away from external
metal surfaces.
•Earth ground the unit correctly. Do not use an
electrical ground or telephone ground.
•Avoid running wires near telephone, data, or
power lines inside a building. Historical evidence
shows that locating control panel wiring at least 2
ft away from telephone, data, or power lines is
successful at minimizing lightning damage. When
your data lines must cross the path of AC or other
wiring, cross the lines perpendicularly.

3.3 Features in the D7212GV3
3.3.1 SDI Molex Connector
Use the SDI Molex Connector to easily connect an
SDI device with the SDI bus. Possible applications
include:
•Connecting a DX4010i to program the control
panel with Remote Programming Software
(RPS) at the premises
•Connecting a keypad to test the control panel.
Do not connect the D5200 Programmer to
the SDI Molex connector.
3.3.2 Tip and Ring Posts
The tip and ring posts allow connecting a phone or
buttset for the purpose of troubleshooting
communications between the control panel and the
central station. This connection allows monitoring of
the dial tone, handshaking tones from the receiver,
and communications signals.
3.3.3 Telephone Line Sniff
The D7212GV3 Control Panel monitors the phone line
for the programmed supervision interval before
indicating a phone line trouble.
3.3.4 Points
The Bosch Security Systems, Inc. D7212GV3 Control
Panel provides up to 40 points of protection. Point
programming parameters determine the control
panel’s response to open and shorted conditions on
the sensor loop for the point. Several options allow
individual point programming to custom-fit the
protection to the installation.
Points 1 to 8 are located on the circuit board (onboard points). They are standard sensor loops. The
remaining off-board points are POPIT points using
D8128D OctoPOPITs, D8125 POPEX Modules and
D9127 POPITs, or the ISW-D8125CW-V2
Commercial Wireless Interface Module. MUX devices
can also be used with the D8125MUX.
Control panel firmware v8.11 or later
does not support the D5200.
UL requires that the DX4010i be used for
programming only.
Any points programmed as fire
supervisory points are latching.
3.3.5 Areas and Accounts
The system supports up to four separate areas. You
can assign all points to a single area or distribute
them over as many as four areas.
The control panel is armed and disarmed by area,
and several areas can be armed and disarmed with
one menu function. A passcode can also be assigned
an authority level that allows a user to arm an area
from a remote keypad in another area. Assigning
each area its own account number creates four
separate accounts in one control panel. Assigning the
same account number to different areas groups them
together in a single account.
Area options include exit tone and delay, separate fire
and burglary outputs, and multiple opening and
closing windows. Area type can be used to create
area interdependencies for arming purposes.
3.3.6 Digital Communicator
The control panel uses a built-in digital communicator
to send reports to the receiver. The control panel
sends reports in either the Modem IIIa
2
ANSI-SIA
Contact ID format. All software versions for the D6600
can be used with the control panel.
The control panel connects to an RJ31X or RJ38X
jack for telephone line seizure. Connecting to the
RJ31X complies with FCC regulations for using the
public telephone network. The control panel can be
programmed to direct reports to four separate
telephone numbers.
The system can route groups of Event Reports to four
different destinations. Each report group can be
programmed to send reports to one or more
destinations. Primary and backup reporting paths can
be programmed for each destination and each report
group. A custom option allows specification of
individual Event Reports to be sent.
3.3.7 Keypads
Up to 32 unsupervised keypads can be connected to
the system. The available power, number of
supervised keypads, and number of areas covered
affect the total number of keypads that can be
connected.
The system can supervise up to eight keypads. The
control panel sends a Serial Device Trouble Report,
SDI FAILURE in the Modem IIIa
2
format or
Expansion Module Failure (333) in Contact ID format,
if it loses communication with a supervised keypad.
More than 8 keypads can be added, but the system
can only supervise up to 8 keypads. Table 4 on
page 12 shows the compatible keypads with the
D7212GV3 Control Panel. Refer to Keypad in the
D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808)
for complete details on programming keypad options.

3.3.8 Keyswitch
Maintained or momentary closure devices such as
keyswitches allow any of the four available areas to
be armed or disarmed. Point programming
determines the loop responses and which area a
keyswitch controls.
3.3.9 Event Memory
The control panel retains point alarm and trouble
events in memory for each area. A D1255 (any
model) or a D1260 (any model) can be used to view
event memory by using COMMAND 40. The control
panel clears the previous events for an area from the
event memory when the area is armed.
3.3.10 Event Log
The system stores 800 events from all areas in its
event log. For example, the system adds at least two
Points 1 to 8 can be used for non-powered fireinitiating devices such as heat detectors, four-wire
smoke detectors, and pull stations. A D125B Powered
Loop Interface or a D129 Dual Class A Interface
Module is not required when connecting the nonpowered fire-initiating devices to Points 1 to 8.
3.3.13 Conettix Functions
The D6600 Conettix System supports data network
communications. Conettix allows the D6600 Receiver
to connect to various network technologies including
Ethernet and GPRS (General Packet Radio System).
Connecting to a data network is possible using the
COM4 or COM1 connection from the D6600 Receiver
to the D6680 Network Adapter. Control panels can
send reports through telephone lines, Ethernet,
Token-Ring or GPRS networks to the D6600 receiver
at the central station. Once events are received, they
can then be issued to automation software or a
network printer through a local area network (LAN) or
wide area network (WAN).
Sending events to the central station over a LAN or
WAN requires a network interface module (NIM), such
as the DX4020. Sending events over GPRS requires
a special NIM, the ITS-DX4020-G.
3.3.14 Programming
Use the Remote Programming Software (RPS) to
program the D7212GV3 Control Panel.
Refer to the D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide
(P/N: F01U170808) for programming options.
items to the log each time an area is armed or
disarmed, the open (or close) event that also contains
the previous arming state.
All events can be stored even if the control panel
does not send a report for them. The log can be
viewed at a keypad, printed locally using the D9131A
Parallel Printer Interface Module and a parallel printer,
or uploaded using Remote Programming Software
(RPS).
For a list of the log events, refer to the appendix in the
user’s guide for the keypad.
3.3.11 Ground Fault Detection
The Earth Ground Terminal on the control panels is
electrically isolated from all other terminals to allow
the D7212GV3 to detect ground fault conditions. A

Service Walk Test instructions.
Clear after Test: To clear the event memory and
report buffer, momentarily close the reset pin. Events
stored in the control panel’s event log are not cleared.
4.10 Service Walk Test
The Service Walk Test differs from the standard Walk
Test. In the standard Walk Test, POPITs whose
switches are set for a point number not programmed
in the control panel do not appear in the test. In the
Service Walk Test, POPITs whose switches are set
for a point number that is not programmed in the
control panel do appear in the test.
The Service Walk Test allows the installer to walk test
all points from a control-panel-wide keypad,
regardless of the point index type.
A Service Walk Test can also be initiated by accountwide or area-wide keypads but test only those points
that are within the scope of the keypad that initiated
the function. The Service Walk Test does not test
points in armed areas.
Only Walk Test Start and Walk Test End
are reported to the central station.
The D9131A can be configured for local
printing. Refer to the D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808).
During a Service Walk Test, the summary
alarm and summary fire remain off, because
there are no Fire or Burg alarm conditions
to summarize. The P# Relay Response
Type feature operates as programmed.

5.0 Power Supply
5.1 Primary Power Terminals 1 and 2
5.1.1 Primary (AC) Power Circuit
The primary source is a 16.5 VAC, 40 VA, internallyfused transformer (Bosch Security Systems, Inc.
Model D1640). The control panel draws 200 mA when
idle and 500 mA when in an alarm state. The total
available auxiliary current is 1.4 A.
Transient suppressors and spark gaps protect the
circuit from power surges. This protection relies on
the ground connection at Terminal 10. Ensure that
you connect Terminal 10 to a proper ground. Refer to
Section4.5 Connecting Earth Ground on page 15.
AC Power Fail
The system indicates an AC power failure when
Terminals 1 and 2 do not have power. The AC Fail
Time parameter sets the number of minutes or
seconds without AC power before the control panel
acknowledges the failure and the number of minutes
or seconds after the power returns before the control
panel acknowledges restored power. Refer to the
D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808)
for additional information about AC Fail Time.

Systems: Use the D8004 Transformer Enclosure for
the D1640 Transformer in fire and combined
fire/burglary applications.
5.2 Secondary Power Terminals
5.2.1 Secondary (DC) Power
A 12 V, 7 Ah (up to 14 Ah) sealed lead-acid
rechargeable battery supplies secondary power for
auxiliary and alarm outputs, and powers the system
during interruptions in primary (AC) power.
Extra Batteries Increase Back-up Time
To increase battery back-up time, connect a second
12 V battery of equal capacity in parallel to the first
battery. Use a D122 Dual Battery Harness to ensure
proper and safe connection. Refer to the Standby
Battery and Curent Rating Chart in the D7212GV3
Approved Applications Compliance Guide
(P/N: F01U143080).
D1218 Battery
The D1218 is a 12 V, 17.2 or 18 Ah battery for use in
applications requiring extended battery standby time.
Up to two D1218 batteries can be connected when
used with a D122 Dual Battery Harness.
Check with the Authority Having
Jurisdiction (AHJ) about mounting
transformers on specific circuits.
Warning - Use Lead Acid Batteries Only:
The charging circuit is calibrated for leadacid batteries. Do not use gel-cell or nicad
batteries.
Caution: When connecting two D1218
Batteries to the control panel, both must have
the same capacity (use two 17.2 Ah batteries
or two 18 Ah batteries).
When using two D1218 batteries, use a
separate enclosure, a D122L Dual Battery
Harness, and long leads.
Always connect the battery first and then
plug in the transformer.
3.Connect the battery. Refer to Section 5.2.2
Installing the Battery on page 21.

5.2.2 Installing the Battery
1. Place the battery upright in the base of the
enclosure.
2. Locate the red and black leads supplied in the
literature pack.
3. Connect the black battery lead to Terminal 4, and
then to the negative (-) side of the battery.
4. Connect the red battery lead to Terminal 5, and
then to the positive (+) side of the battery.
Warning: High current arcs are possible. The
positive (red) battery lead and Terminal 5 can
create high current arcs if shorted to other
terminals or the enclosure. Use caution when
working with the positive lead and Terminal 5.
Always disconnect the positive (red) lead
from the battery before removing it from
Terminal 5.
Caution: The battery terminals and wire are
not power limited. A 6.4 mm (0.250 in.)
space must be maintained between the
battery terminals, battery wiring, and all other
wiring. Battery wiring cannot share the same
conduit, conduit fittings, or conduit knockouts with other wiring.
Figure 6: Battery Terminals
1 - Battery terminals. Terminal 5 is non-power
limiting.
5.2.3 Replacing the Battery
Replace batteries every 3 to 5 years under normal
use. Record the date of installation directly on the
battery.
Caution: Exceeding the maximum output
ratings or installing the transformer in an
outlet that is routinely switched off causes
heavy discharges. Routine heavy discharges
can lead to premature battery failure.
D8132 Boost Battery Backup: Adding a D8132
Battery Charger Module supports additional batteries
of up to 27 Ah capacity, if required.
The control panel plus any connected D8132 Modules
and auxiliary power supplies must be on the same AC
circuit to discharge evenly if AC power fails. The
number of D8132 Modules is determined by the
number of available outlets on the same circuit. Refer
to the Standby Battery and Current Rating Chart in
the D7212GV3 Approved Applications Compliance Guide (P/N: F01U143080) for battery standby time
calculations.
In applications where the supervision of two
batteries is required by the AHJ, use a D113
Battery Supervision Module.
5.2.4 Battery Supervision
When battery voltage drops to 13.8 VDC, the yellow
Charging Status LED lights. When the battery voltage
drops to 12.0 VDC to 11.8 VDC, the red Low Battery
LED lights, and the keypad or keypads display SERVC LOW BATT. The control panel (if programmed for
power supervision) sends a BATTERY LOW report in
the Modem IIIa
2
communication format. It sends a
Low System Battery (302) report in the Contact ID
format.
If the battery is missing or shorted, the red Low
Battery LED flashes at the same rate as the green
Operation Monitor LED. If the control panel is
programmed for power supervision, it sends a
BATTERY MISSING report in the Modem IIIa
2
communication format, or Control Panel Battery
Missing (311) report in the Contact ID format.
When battery voltage returns to 13.7 VDC, the Low
Battery LED turns off and the keypad or keypads
clear the SERVC LOW BATT message. If the control
panel is programmed for power supervision, it sends
a BATTERY RESTORAL report in the Modem IIIa

6.3 Continuous Power Output
Terminals 3, 8, and 32
The continuous current draw for powered devices
connected to Terminals 3, 8, 24, and 32, and the
accessory connector must not exceed 1.4 A. Devices
powered from these outputs must operate at 12.0
VDC Nominal.
Power Restricted for Fire and Combined Fire and
Burglary Systems: Use the Fire System Power
Formula to calculate the current available for fire and
combined fire and burglary systems (refer to Section
6.4 Programmable Power Output Terminals 6, 7, and
8).
6.4 Programmable Power Output
Terminals 6, 7, and 8
6.4.1 Programming
The power outputs at Terminals 6, 7, and 8 are
programmed as Relays A, B, and C. All relays are
programmed in the Relays section.
Relays are assigned a relay type, (Fire Bell, for
example) when they are assigned to an area. Relays
can be assigned to one or more areas.
The Bosch Security Systems, Inc. defaults set Relay
A (Terminal 6) as a Steady Alarm Bell output, Relay B
(Terminal 7) as a Pulsed Fire Bell output, and Relay C
(Terminal 8) as a Verification or Reset output for
smoke detectors. The D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808) contains complete
instructions for programming relays. Refer to Sections
6.4.2 Terminals 6 and 7, 6.4.3 Fire System Power
Formula, and 6.4.4 Terminal 8 on page 25 for
descriptions of the functions of each terminal.
Refer to the Bell Parameters section of the program to
set the Fire Bell, Alarm Bell output responses for
relays. Four annunciation patterns are available:
Steady, Pulsed, California Standard, and Temporal
Code 3.

Voltage Output at Terminals 6, 7, and 8
If Terminals 6, 7, and 8 do not provide the expected
output, check:
•Programming for Relays A, B, and C in the relays
section of the program.
•Bell Parameters section of the program to confirm
that the Alarm and Fire Bell responses are
programmed for the expected duration and
pattern.
•Point Assignments section to confirm that each
point is programmed for the expected local
response.
6.4.2 Terminals 6 and 7
When activated, Terminals 6 (Relay A) and 7 (Relay
B), provide positive (+) 12.0 VDC Nominal power
output. Use the power at Terminals 6 and 7 to power
bells, siren drivers, piezoelectric fire sounders,
electronic horns, or other devices.
Programming determines the format of the output and
the conditions that activate it. One self-resetting circuit
breaker protects Terminals 6, 7, and 8 against shorts.
Available Power
The system combines the 1.4 A of primary power
produced by the power supply with the secondary
power source (the battery) to produce a total of 2.0 A
of alarm power at 12.0 VDC Nominal. Terminals 6
and 7 share the available alarm power.
Power Restricted for Fire and Combined Fire and
Burglary Systems: Fire systems are prohibited from
using the battery for determining alarm power. Use
the fire system power formula that follows to calculate
the current available for fire and combined fire and
burglary systems.
6.4.3 Fire System Power Formula
To calculate the current available at Terminals 6 and
7 for fire and combined fire and burglary systems:
1. Add together the current draws for all devices
connected to Terminals 3, 8, 24, and 32, and the
accessory connector. This is the total current
required for the normal standby condition (NSC).
2. The current available for NSC is 1.4 A. Subtract
the NSC current required calculated in Step 1
from the NSC current available, 1.4 A. The
difference is the alarm current available for
Terminals 6 and 7.
In formula format:
=
1.4 A − NSC current required
(Step 1)
Refer to the D7212GV3 Approved Applications
Compliance Guide (P/N: F01U143080) for module or
accessory current requirements.
Alarm current
available
6.4.4 Terminal 8
Terminal 8 provides continuous positive (+) 12.0 VDC
Nominal power. Relay C interrupts the power at
Terminal 8 when activated. Use Terminal 8 to power
smoke detectors or other devices that are reset by
interrupting power. One self-resetting circuit breaker
protects Terminals 6, 7, and 8 against shorts.
Verification/Reset Relay
The default program sets Relay C (Terminal 8) as a
verification and reset relay. Refer to Relay
Parameters and Point Assignments in the D7212GV3
Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808) for
instructions on programming verification/reset relays
and points.
Performing a sensor reset at a keypad produces a
five-sec relay activation of verification/reset relays.
The control panel ignores verification and ressettable
points during the five sec.
7.0 Telephone Connections

7.5 Phone LED (Red)
The red Phone LED illuminates when the control
panel seizes the telephone line and remains
illuminated until the control panel returns the
telephone line. Refer to Figure 9 on page 26 for the
location of the red LED.
7.6 Operation Monitor LED (Green)
The green Operation Monitor LED indicates the
operation of the central processing unit (CPU). When
the CPU is operating normally, the LED flashes 0.5
sec on, 0.5 sec off.
This green LED also serves as a ring indicator. The
LED is located on the lower right side (Figure 9 on
page 26). When there is ring voltage on the telephone
line (the telephone is ringing), the green LED flashes
at a faster rate for the duration of each ring. Ring
voltage must reach a minimum of 45 VAC before the
system detects it.
7.7 Dialing Format
The system can be programmed to use dual tone
multi-frequency (DTMF) or pulse dialing. Refer to
Phone Parameters in the D7212GV3 Program Entry
Guide (P/N: F01U170808).
7.8 Telephone Line Monitor
The control panel has a built-in telephone line monitor
that tests the telephone line for voltage and current.
If the control panel senses trouble, it starts a
programmable telephone line trouble timer, which
continues to run as long as the monitor detects
trouble. It resets to zero when the control panel
senses a normal line. If the timer reaches the delay
time in the Phone Supervision program item, it begins
a telephone line trouble response. Programming
determines what the response is. For programming
information, refer to Phone Parameters in the
D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808).
Any time the control panel uses the telephone line to
make a call or is on-line with the remote programming
software (RPS), it stops monitoring the telephone line
during this process. When the telephone line on the
control panel is no longer in use, it begins to monitor
the telephone line again.
Bad Line Might Test OK: The telephone line monitor
uses voltage levels to test the status of the telephone
line. In some instances, a given telephone line might
be out of service without affecting the voltage on the
line. The telephone line monitor cannot recognize this
trouble condition.
7.9 Called Party Disconnect
Telephone companies provide “called party
disconnect” to allow the called party to terminate a
call. The called party must go on hook (hang up) for a
fixed interval before a dial tone is available for a new
call. This interval varies with telephone company
equipment. Control panel firmware allows for “called
party disconnect” by adding a 35-sec, “on hook”
interval to the dial tone detect function. If the control
panel does not detect a dial tone in seven sec, it puts
the telephone line on hook for 35 sec to activate
“called party disconnect,” goes off hook, and begins a
seven-second dial tone detect. If no dial tone is
detected, the control panel dials the number anyway.
Each time the number is dialed, the control panel
records this as an attempt.
7.10 Communication Failure
After two attempts to reach the receiver over the
phone line, the control panel generates and sends a
COMM TROUBLE PH # event. If a backup route is
used, the event that triggered the telephone call to the
central station follows the COMM TROUBLE PH #
event.
After ten unsuccessful attempts to reach the receiver,
the control panel enters communication failure. The
control panel clears any reports queued for the failed
route and a COMM FAIL # event is generated and
display at the keypads. A trouble sounder can be
programmed to annunciate at the keypads.
One hour after the COMM FAIL # is generated, the
control panel attempts to send a restoration event. If a
communication failure still occurs, the keypad trouble
sounds again.
Enhanced Communication
The D7212GV3 Control Panel can send events over
the SDI Bus to a DX4020 Network Interface Module
(NIM). For more information on the enhanced
communications capabilities, refer to AUXPARAM in
the D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide
(P/N: F01U170808).

8.1 Terminals 11 to 22 Description
The control panel provides eight on-board points.
Each point functions independently and does not
interfere with the operation of the others. The control
panel monitors the sensor loops for normal, shorted,
or open conditions between an input terminal (11, 13,
14, 16, 17, 19, 20, or 22) and any of the point
common terminals (12, 15, 18, and 21). Programming
for the point determines how the control panel
responds to those conditions. Refer to the D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808) for point
programming options. The control panel also monitors
the sensor loops for ground fault conditions if S4 is
latched (ground fault detect enabled).
8.2 Point Sensor Loops
When wiring the on-board points (Figure 10), install
a 1 kΩ resistor at the far end of the sensor loop to
provide a reference for supervision. Dry-contact
resistance for the wire length and contacts, minus the
end-of-line (EOL) resistor, must not exceed 100 Ω.
8.3 Point Parameters
The condition of on-board Points 1 to 8 is determined
by measuring the voltage across the point input
terminal and one of the common terminals. The
sensor loops must be connected and the 1 kΩ EOL
resistor in place.
Table 8: Point Parameters
Loop Voltage Range

8.4 Point Response Time
The control panel scans on-board and off-board point
sensor loops every 300 ms. The Debounce program
item in the Point Assignment section of the software
determines point response time by setting the number
of times the control panel scans a point before
generating an alarm.
The debounce count can range from 2 to 15;
therefore, point response time ranges from 600 ms to
4.5 sec. The Bosch Security Systems, Inc. default for
debounce count is 2.
Increasing debounce might cause missed
alarms. If you increase the debounce count,
detection devices can enter alarm and reset
Use a debounce count of 2 for all points except for
Interior Follower points. Program Interior Follower
points as 3.

9.1.5 D7212GV3 Responses to Missing Point
Conditions
The D7212GV3 responds to missing point conditions
based on the point’s programming and the armed
state of the point’s area. For example, if an interior
motion detector point is missing during a disarmed
state, a Missing Trouble event is generated; however,
if the point is missing while the area is Master Armed,
a Missing Alarm event is generated. Non-fire, 24-hour
points always generate a Missing Alarm event,
whereas Fire points always generate a Missing Fire
Trouble event.
9.2 D8125, D9127 POPIT Modules
D9127 POPITs use the D8125 POPEX Module to
report to the control panel. Points 9 to 40 connect to
the POPEX Module. The control panel annunciates
activity only for each POPIT, not for each detection
device connected to the sensor loop.
Both D9127 module enclosures are made of UL
Listed fire resistant material. D9127T Modules contain
tamper switches. D9127U Modules include
untampered covers. Unless the module is mounted in
a tampered enclosure, UL requires D9127T Modules

Address Switches
The switches on the D8128D OctoPOPIT set point
assignments and line termination. These switches are
easier to set before mounting the D8128D in the
3
enclosure.
Switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 assign the OctoPOPIT sensor
loops to point numbers on the control panel. Table 13
shows the OctoPOPIT switch settings for point
assignments.

Point DIP Switches
Each point connected to the D8128D is enabled by
closing the respective DIP switch, or disabled by
opening the DIP switch. For example, to disable a
device connected to the P3 Terminal (Point 3), move
DIP switch number 3 to the OPEN position.
Use the point DIP switches to disable conflicting
points, such as when a D9210B Access Control
Module must be assigned to a point that falls within
the range of the D8128D OctoPOPIT. In this example,
a D9210B is assigned to Point 20. On the same
system, a D8128D OctoPOPIT is assigned to Points
17 through 24. Moving the DIP switch for Point 4 to
the OFF position would effectively disable Point 20,
allowing normal operation of the D9210B and the
OctoPOPIT.
Terminate each OctoPOPIT sensor loop with a 1 kΩ
EOL resistor. Attach a resistor even if you do not
enable the loop.
9.4.5 Mounting OctoPOPITs
The D8128D OctoPOPIT Module can be installed in
the enclosure with the control panel using standard
four-conductor 0.8 mm (22 AWG) wire, or in a
separate enclosure (Model D8103, D8103A, or
D8109) up to 61 m (200 ft) from the control panel
using shielded (recommended) standard fourconductor
0.8 mm (22 AWG) wire. If using the D125B or D129,
refer to the Specifications section of the D8128D Installation Guide (P/N: F01U070537) for cabling
requirements.
For UL Listed systems, mount the D8128D in a
tamper-proof enclosure. To install OctoPOPITs in the
control panel’s enclosure, complete the following
procedure. Use the D137 Mounting Bracket to install
OctoPOPITs in enclosures with no module-mounting
locations available.
1. Align the OctoPOPIT module using any of the
four mounting locations in the enclosure. Refer to
Figure 2 on page 14.
2. Use the screws provided with the module to
secure it in the enclosure.
9.4.6 Wiring OctoPOPITs
Warning: Disconnect all power to the
control panel before beginning any work
with the internal components. Serious injury
could result from electrical shock.
1. Power down the control panel:
a. Disconnect the positive (red) battery lead at
the battery.
b. Unplug the transformer.
A D8128D OctoPOPIT can be installed up
to 61 m (200 ft) from the control panel.
2. Connect the D8128D to the control panel, using
either of the following methods:
•Wire the D8128D to the terminal strip on the
side of the POPEX Module (refer to Using the Terminal Strip on page 39), or
•Connect the D8128D using the Molex
connectors (P1 and P2). Refer to Using Molex Connectors on page 41.

Using Molex Connectors
Each D8128D Module is supplied with a 30 cm (12 in.) female-to-female Molex cable assembly.
P1 and P2 are Molex connectors that parallel the COM, IN, OUT, and +12.0 VDC terminals on the terminal
strip. In installations with multiple D8128Ds, use these connectors (as opposed to terminals) with the supplied
cable; however, when connecting D8128D Modules directly to the control panel, the terminal strip is easier to
use.
The Molex connectors provided are "keyed" (Molex plug can only fit in one direction). Ensure the connector is
attached correctly: the red wire is on the bottom of P1 (or P2) and the black wire is on the top.
When connecting multiple D8128Ds to a control panel, you can connect the control panel terminals to P1 or the
COM, IN, OUT, and +12V terminals on the first D8128D. Then connect P2 of the first D8128D to P1 of the
second D8128D and so on (Figure 17).

Only the resistance on the loop limits the number of
normally-open or normally-closed detection devices
each sensor loop can supervise. Resistance on each
sensor loop must be less than 100 Ω with the
detection devices connected.
Certain UL and NFPA applications can limit the
number of detection devices. Consult the appropriate
UL or NFPA standards.
The OctoPOPIT detects open, short, closed, normal,
and grounded circuit conditions on its sensor loops
and sends the conditions to the control panel. Each
sensor loop is assigned a point number and sends
signals to the control panel separately.
Use twisted-pair wire for the OctoPOPIT sensor loops
to avoid EMI problems. Run wires away from the
premises telephone and AC wiring. If you suspect a
noisy environment, use shielded cable.
The OctoPOPIT has two rows of terminal numbers. In
the row nearest to the terminal blocks, the positive
outputs for the sensor loops are labeled P1 to P8.
Sensor loop outputs P1 and P2, P3 and P4, P5 and
P6, and P7 and P8 share common terminals. The
common terminals for each pair are labeled COM.
Terminate each OctoPOPIT sensor loop with a 1 kΩ
EOL resistor. Attach a resistor even if you do not
enable the loop. The OctoPOPIT includes a D105BL
resistor for each sensor loop. Refer to Figure 18.

sensor loop. Relays can be programmed to activate
arming status LEDs for keyswitch arming stations.
Refer to Relays in the D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808)
11.4.2 Programming
Refer to Point Assignments in the D7212GV3
Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808) for the
correct programming for points used for keyswitches.
11.4.3 Installation
For maintained switches, connect the EOL resistor for
the point at the keyswitch so that the switch opens the
circuit when it operates. A short on the circuit
produces an alarm if the area is armed and a trouble
if it is disarmed. Refer to Figure 21.
For momentary keyswitches, connect the EOL
resistor at the keyswitch point so that when the
keyswitch operates, it shorts the resistor. An open on
the circuit causes an alarm if the area is armed and a
trouble if it is disarmed. Refer to Figure 21.
11.4.4 Operation
Maintained Contact
If the point to which the keyswitch is connected is
programmed for a maintained contact, an open on the
arming circuit arms the area. All faulted points are
force armed, regardless of the entry in the FA Bypass
Max program item. Returning the circuit to normal
disarms the area. Refer to Area Parameters and Point Assignments in the D7212 Program Entry Guide
(P/N: F01U170808)
Momentary Contact
If the point to which the keyswitch is connected is
programmed for a momentary contact, shorting the
arming circuit toggles the area’s arming state between
armed and disarmed. All faulted points are force
armed, regardless of the entry in the FA Bypass Max
program item. Refer to Point Assignments in the
D7212GV3 Program Entry Guide (P/N: F01U170808).
Silencing the Bell
To silence the bell (stop Alarm Bell output) if the
system is armed, position the keyswitch to disarm the
area. If the area is disarmed, turn the keyswitch once
to start the arming process. Turning the keyswitch a
second time stops the arming process and silences
the bell.
