D8128 COctoPOPIT combines
8 POPIT Points in one module.
D8125 Interface for
D8127POPITS
Points 9-71
Use D1255 Command Centers and/or
keyswitches to arm the D9112 by area. Each
panel can have up to 8 areas.Each area can
have its own account number or areas can be
grouped together with a common account number.
Points of protection are assigned to areas.
D128 module allows the
D9112 to monitor two
phone lines.
D9131 module connects
to a parallel printer to
print event log locally.
The Radionics D9112 Control/Communicator panel provides up to 134 separate points of
protection. Point programming parameters determine the panel’s response to open and
shorted conditions on the point’s sensor loop. Points are programmed individually with
several options to custom-fit the protection to your installation.
Points 1 to 8 are located on the D9112 circuit board (on-board points). They are standard
sensor loops. The remaining 126 off-board points are POPIT (Point of Protection InputTransponder) points. Each off-board point requires a POPIT module. D8127 POPIT
modules require the D8125 POPEX module. The D8128A OctoPOPIT module combines
eight POPITs in a single module and does not require the D8125 POPEX module.
The D9112 supports up to eight separate areas. You can assign all points to a single
area or spread them out over up to eight areas.
You arm and disarm the D9112 panel by area. You can arm and disarm several areas
with one menu function. You can also assign a passcode an authority level that allows a
user to arm an area from a remote command center in another area. Assigning each
area its own account number creates eight separate accounts in one D9112 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.
Communicator
The Radionics D9112 Control/Communicator panel uses a built-in digital communicator
to send reports to the receiver. The panel transmits reports in either the Modem II or
BFSK format. Your D6500 receiver's MPU and line cards must have software revision
6.00 (or greater) installed to accept Modem II reports from the D9112. Power your
receiver down and up to print the software revision numbers.
The D9112 connects to an RJ31X jack for phone line seizure. Connection to the RJ31X
complies with FCC regulations for using the public telephone network. You can program
the panel to direct reports to four separate phone numbers. Adding the D128 Dual Phone
Line Switcher module allows you to connect and supervise a second phone line.
D1255 Alpha III Command Center
The D1255 Alpha III Command Center offers complete system control and annunciation.
The D1255 features an illuminated keypad, a 16-character English language display, and
a built-in speaker that offers several distinct warning tones. Switches on the D1255
assign an address (1 to 8) to the command center. You assign addresses to areas in the
Command Center Assignments section of the program.
You can connect a maximum of 32 command centers to the D9112. The available power,
number of supervised command centers, and number of areas you intend to use, affect
the total number of command centers you can connect to the D9112.
The D9112 can supervise up to 8 command centers. The panel transmits a serial device
trouble report, SDI FAILURE in the Modem II format or TROUBLE ZN D in the BFSK
format, if it loses communication with a supervised command center. You can add more
command centers but only eight can be supervised. See Command Center in the D9112Program Entry Guide (74-06145-000) for complete details on command center options.
Keyswitch
You can arm and disarm any of the eight available areas with maintained or momentary
closure devices such as keyswitches. Keyswitches connect to points. Point programming
determines which area a keyswitch controls. See Options in the Point Index Parameters
module of the D9112 Program Entry Guide (74-06145-000).
The D9112 uses event memory to store events for each area. You can view the events
for an area at a D1255 Command Center assigned to the area. The D9112 panel clears
the events for an area from event memory and starts storing new events when you
master arm the area.
NCI
154
Event Log
The D9112 stores up to 500 events and event modifiers from all areas in it's event log.
Event modifiers add information about an event to the log. Some events are always
followed by a modifier. For example, the D9112 adds at least two items to the log each
time you arm or disarm an area, the open (or close) event and an event modifier showing
the previous arming state.
All events and their modifiers are stored even if the D9112 does not send a report for
them. You can view the log at a D1255 Command Center, print it locally using the
D9131 Parallel Printer Interface and a parallel printer, or upload it to a D5300 Remote
Account Manager II (RAM II).
See S- View Log in the Security System User's Guide (71-06141-000) for a complete
listing of log events and event modifiers.
EMI/Lightning Transient Protection
The D9112 maintains the Radionics high level of quality and field dependability. Its
design significantly reduces electromagnetic interference and malfunction generally
caused by lightning.

in this manual to
• D8103 Universal Enclosure (gray)
• D8109 Fire Enclosure (red)
• D8108A Attack Resistant Enclosure (gray)
Beginning the Installation
Mounting the Enclosure
Mount the enclosure in the desired location. Be certain to use all five mounting holes. See
Figure 2.
Run the necessary wiring throughout the premises and pull the wires into the enclosure.
EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) may cause problems: EMI may occur if you
install the D9112 system or run system wires near the following:
• Computer network system
• Electrical lines, fluorescent fixtures or telephone cabling
• Ham radio transmitter site
• Heavy machinery and motors
• High voltage electrical equipment or transformers
• PBX telephone system
• Public service (police, fire departments, etc.) using radio communications
• Radio station transmitter site, or other broadcast station equipment
• Welding shop
If you think that EMI may be a problem, use shielded cable. The drain wire for the
shielded cable must have continuity from terminal 10 on the D9112 to the end of the wire
run. If continuity is not maintained, the shielded cable may aggravate potential noise
problems rather than eliminate them.
Connecting the drain wire to ground at other than terminal 10 may also produce
problems. If you cut the drain wire to install devices be certain to splice it together. Solder
and tape all splices.
Installing the D9112 Assembly
1. Place the D9112 assembly over the inside back of the enclosure, aligning the large
rectangular openings of the mounting skirt with the mounting hooks of the enclosure.
Slide the D9112 down so it hangs on the hooks. See Figure 2.
2. Remove the tape from the #6x1/4" screw in the mounting tab on the D9112
assembly. The screw passes through the mounting tab and into the skirt mounting
hole in the enclosure. Tighten the screw to secure the D9112 assembly in the
enclosure.
3. Connect earth ground to the panel before making any other connections. See
Connecting Earth Ground below.
Connecting Earth GroundTerminal10
To help prevent damage from electrostatic charges or other transient electrical surges,
connect the D9112 to earth ground at terminal 10 before making any other connections.
A grounding rod or cold water pipe are recommended earth ground references.
Do not use telephone or electrical ground for the earth ground connection. Use 16
AWG wire when making the connection. Do not connect any other panel terminals to
earth ground.
Locking the Reset Pin disables the panel. See Figure 3. The D9112 ignores the command
centers and points while disabled. CALL FOR SERVICE appears in command center
displays while the pin is locked down.
Existing reports transmitted with Reset Pin locked down:
Any reports that are in the
panel’s report buffer when you lock down the Reset Pin, will be transmitted. However, no
new reports can be created with the pin locked down.
To prevent buffered reports from being transmitted, momentarily close the Reset Pin, wait
for the buzzer to stop sounding, and then lock the pin down to prevent new reports from
being generated.
Locking Reset Speeds Programming:
If you have supervised command centers or
other supervised devices connected to the Data Bus (terminals 30 and 31), locking the
Reset Pin will speed communication between the panel and the D5200.
On-board relays (terminals 6, 7, and 8) and off-board relays,
deactivate when the panel is reset. There is power at
terminal 8 when the relay is deactivated. Activation
interrupts power at that terminal. The relays remain
deactivated while the Reset Pin is
locked in the disable position.
You can program the panel while it
is locked in the disable position with
either the D5200 or D5300 (RAM II)
programmers. If you place the reset
pin in the disable position with one
or more areas disarmed, there must
be an entry in the
Answer Disarmed
program item to use RAM II.

in the
Figure 3: Reset Pin
D9112 Program Entry Guide
(74-06145-000).
Releasing the reset pin from the closed position resets the panel. The panel resets all its
timers, counters, indexes, and buffers.
Changes to some program parameters require a reset before they become
effective:
Radionics recommends that you reset the panel after changing program
parameters with the D5200 programmer. The D5300 (RAM II) programmer prompts you
for a "RESET BYE" when a program change requires that the panel be reset.
Lock the Reset Pin Now
Locking the pin in the disable position allows you to power up the panel and charge the
battery as you install the detection devices and command centers. Lock the pin down
now.
Earth ground and reset pin first: Make the earth ground connection to terminal 10 and
lock the reset pin in the closed position if you haven’t already done so.
Charge the Battery as You Finish
Connect the battery and then the transformer so that the panel can charge the battery as
you finish the installation. See the Power Supply section for instructions.
On-board Buzzer Sounds at Power Up and Reset: The D9112 performs a series of
self diagnostic tests of its hardware, software, and program at power up and at reset. The
buzzer on the D9112 sounds during the tests. They take about 10 seconds to complete.
If the panel fails any of the tests, the buzzer continues sounding and a system trouble
message appears at the command centers. See Self Diagnostics in the Trouble Shooting
section for a description of each system trouble message.
Touch Terminal 10 first: If the on-board buzzer sounds briefly when you touch the
panel, you're discharging any static charge you may be carrying to the panel. The panel
may generate WATCHDOG RESET and/or PARAM FAIL events. See the TroubleShooting section for a description of these events. Always touch terminal 10, the panel's
earth ground connection, before beginning work on the panel.
Install and Wire Detection Devices
Install and wire detection devices and command centers at their locations throughout the
premises. DO NOT make the connections at the panel end of the wiring yet.
The On-Board Points section of this manual contains instructions for wiring the on-board
points to detection devices. The Arming Devices section contains instructions for wiring
the command centers.
Instructions for wiring the off-board point POPIT sensor loops are found in the
instructions packaged with the POPIT modules.
Install Modules and Relays
1. Power Down First: Power down the D9112 by unplugging the transformer and
disconnecting the battery. Radionics recommends that you power down the D9112
when installing modules or relays, or when making wiring connections to the panel.
2. Install and wire any modules required for your installation as described in the
module’s installation instructions.
Instructions for the D8125 POPEX Module, the D8128A OctoPOPIT Module, the
D8129 OctoRelay Module, the D811 Arm Status Relay Module, and the D128 Dual
Phone Line Switcher appear in this manual.
See Off-board Points for D8125 and D8128A instructions. See Relays for D8129 and
D811 instructions. See Dual Line Transmitting in the Telephone Connections section
for instructions for the D128.
3. If you are using the power outputs at terminals 7 or 8, install a D136 relay in the
appropriate sockets. See Programmable Power Outputs in the Power Outputs
section for instructions.
4. If you are using a ground start phone system, insert a D136 relay in socket K6/J5 and
set the ground start pin in the ground start position. See Ground Start in the
See Telephone Connections. If you are connecting the D9112 to a ground start phone
system, you need to install D136 relay, see Install Modules and Relays on the previous
page.
Connect the On-Board Points and Command Centers
Connect the on-board point and command center wiring to the D9112. See the On-Board
Points and Arming Devices sections for instructions.
Power Up
Reconnect the battery and then plug in the transformer. Remember the buzzer sounds
for 10 seconds when you first power up the panel.
Leave the reset pin locked down for now.
Yellow Charging Status LED doesn’t go out: If the yellow charging status LED doesn’t
go out within 5 minutes of powering up the panel, the battery may be deeply discharged,
or you may have connected too many powered devices to the panel. Combined
continuous current draw for terminals 3, 8, 24, and 32, the Accessory Connector (J2),
and the Expansion Port (J4) cannot exceed 1.4A. See the Power Outputs section for
help.
Programming the Panel
If you haven’t created a program for the panel, review the D9112 Program Entry Guide
(74-06145-000). Check to be certain you have all the required accessory modules
installed for the features you want to use.
Use the D5200 Programmer or the RAM II remote programmer to load your custom
program into the panel.
Move the reset pin to the normal position. See Figure 3. The panel transmits reboot and
battery reports to the receiver.
Install the Point Chart Label
Radionics recommends you fill out the Point Chart Label (79-06660-000) provided in the
literature pack and install it inside the enclosure doors for all systems.
Point chart label required for fire systems with verification points: You must install
the point chart label for fire or combined fire/burglary systems using verification points.
Use the program record sheet to gather the information you need to fill out the point
chart. Install the label on the enclosure door as shown in figure 2. To avoid smearing your
entries on the chart, use the label's peel off backing to press the label in place.
After finishing the installation and programming of the panel, make a complete functional
test of the D9112 system. Test the panel and all devices for proper operation. Test after
you first program the panel and after any subsequent programming session.
Service Walk Test shows extra points: Use the service walk test at a panel wide
command center to perform a complete test of the panel. The service walk test function is
similar to the ordinary walk test function, with the additional ability to display points that
are not properly programmed.
If you test a POPIT with it’s switches set for a point with a blank point index and/or no
area assignment, it appears as an extra point during a Service Walk Test.
If you test a device, and the panel doesn’t respond, there may be a problem with the
device, the wiring, the POPIT ID setting, or the programming for the point. If you
incorrectly set the switches on a POPIT, you may create both a missing and extra point.
When you find a missing point, performing a service walk test for extra points may help
diagnose the problem.
See the Trouble Shooting Section of this manual for complete service walk test
instructions.
Clear after test: To clear the event memory and report buffer, momentarily close the
reset pin. Events stored in the panel's event log are not cleared.
A 16.5 VAC, 40 VA internally fused transformer (Radionics model D1640) is the primary
power source for the D9112. The AC power circuit provides 1.9 Amps of rectified AC
power. The panel reserves 500 mA of this power for internal operations leaving 1.4 Amps
for powered devices.
Transient suppressors and spark gaps protect the circuit from power surges. This
protection relies on the ground connection at terminal 10. Make sure you connect
terminal 10 to a proper ground. See Connecting Earth Ground in the Installation section.
AC Power Failure
The D9112 indicates an AC power failure when the power at terminals 1 and 2 is missing.
The AC Fail Time program item sets the number of seconds that AC must be missing
before the panel acknowledges the failure and the number of seconds after the power
returns before the panel acknowledges the restoral of power.
You can program AC Fail Time from 1 to 90 seconds. The Radionics default sets ACFail Time at 10 seconds.
Installing the Transformer
Do not short the terminals of the transformer: Shorting the terminals opens the
internal fuse causing permanent failure. Connect the transformer to terminals 1 and 2 of
the panel before plugging it into the power source.
Use 18 AWG (minimum) wire to connect the transformer to the panel. Wire length should
be kept as short as possible. Maximum length is 50 feet.
Connect the battery and then plug in the transformer: Radionics recommends that
you always connect the battery first and then plug in the transformer. Instructions for
Installing the Battery appear on the next page.
Only plug the transformer into an unswitched, 120 VAC, 60 Hz power outlet. Secure the
transformer to the outlet with the screw provided.
Nevershare the transformer with other equipment: Foreign grounds on the AC input
damage the D9112 power circuit.
AC wiring can induce both noise and low level voltage into adjacent wiring. Route phone
and sensor loop wiring away from any AC conductors, including the transformer wire.
Route data wiring away from AC and phone wiring.
D8004 Transformer Enclosure required for fire systems: Use the D8004 Transformer
Enclosure for the D1640 transformer in fire and combined fire/burglary applications.
A 12V, 7 Ah sealed lead-acid rechargeable battery (Radionics D126) supplies secondary
power for auxiliary and alarm outputs, and powers the system during interruptions in
primary (AC) power.
Lead Acid Batteries ONLY: The D9112 charging circuit is only calibrated for lead-acid
batteries. Do not use gel-cell or nicad batteries.
Extra Batteries Increase Back-up Time: To increase battery back-up time, connect a
second 12V, 7 Ah battery in parallel to the first battery to form a 12V, 14 Ah battery. Use
a D122 Dual Battery Harness to ensure proper and safe connection. You can use the
D8132 Battery Charger Module to connect two additional batteries for a total of four. See
the D9112 Standby Battery and Current Rating Chart in this manual for battery standby
time calculations.
Installing the Battery
Place the battery upright in the base of the enclosure. Locate the red and black leads
supplied in the literature pack. Connect the black battery lead to terminal 4, and then to
the negative (-) side of the battery. Connect the red battery lead to terminal 5, and then to
the positive (+) side of the battery.
Warning, High Current Arcs 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.
Replacement
Radionics recommends battery replacement every 3 to 5 years under normal use.
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 boosts battery backup: Adding a D8132 Battery Charger Module supports
additional batteries of up to 36 Ah capacity if required.
Warning: The transformers for the D9112 and any D8132 modules connected to it must
be powered from the same 120 VAC circuit. The D9112 supervises AC power by
monitoring the power from the transformer connected to terminals 1 and 2. It cannot
supervise the AC power for D8132 modules if their transformers are not plugged into the
same AC circuit as the transformer for the panel.
Battery Supervision
When the battery voltage drops to 13.8 VDC, the yellow Charging Status LED lights.
When the battery drops to 12.1 VDC the red Low Battery LED lights and the panel, if
programmed for power supervision, transmits a BATTERY LOW report in the Modem II
transmission format. It transmits a TROUBLE ZN 9 report in the BFSK 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 panel is programmed for power supervision, it
transmits a BATTERY MISSING report in the Modem II transmission format, or TROUBLEZN 9 report in the BFSK format.
When battery voltage returns to 13.7 VDC the Low Battery LED goes out. If the panel is
programmed for power supervision, it transmits a BATTERY RESTORAL report in the
Modem II transmission format or RESTORAL ZN 9 report in the BFSK format. At 13.9
VDC the Charging Status LED goes out.

find the actual current available for charging.
Load Shed Relay protects battery:
power to the security system. If the battery voltage falls below 10.2 volts during an AC
power loss, a “load shed” relay isolates the battery from the panel and disables the panel.
Load shed protects the battery from being damaged by deep discharge. When AC power
restores, the load shed relay resets and battery voltage is again available.
Reset or power down required for shorted battery:
battery is shorted, it uses the load shed relay to disconnect the battery. You must reset or
power down the panel after correcting the problem to reset the load shed relay and
reconnect the battery.
Reset the panel by momentarily placing the reset pin in the disable position. See Figure
3. The red Low Battery LED continues to flash until you reset the panel.

goes out when battery voltage reaches 13.7 VDC.
• Red LED flashing (same rate as green LED)
The red LED flashes with the green Operation Monitor LED when the battery is
missing or shorted.
Reset required for shorted battery:
battery remains disconnected and the red Low Battery LED continues to flash until you
reset the panel.
No missing battery with D192A
from recognizing a missing battery condition.
• Red and yellow LEDs flashing once per minute
The yellow and red LEDs flash once every minute when current draw for devices
connected to the power outputs exceeds 1.4 Amps and the battery is missing.
Three self-resetting thermal circuit breakers protect the panel from short circuits on both
the continuous and programmable power outputs. The circuit breakers are thermal rated
and open at 3 to 5 Amps. If the panel is programmed for power supervision and short is
sustained on one of the power outputs, the panel transmits a BATTERY LOW orBATTERY MISSING for Modem II, or TROUBLE ZN 9 for BFSK.
One thermal circuit breaker protects Terminal 3 - Auxiliary Power and Terminal 24 ZONEX Power and the Expansion Port (J4). A short on one disrupts the power to the
others.
One breaker protects Terminal 6 - Alarm Power Output, Terminal 7 - Alternate Alarm
Power Output, and Terminal 8 - Switched Auxiliary Power. A short on one of these
terminals disrupts the power to the other two.
One circuit breaker protects terminal 32 - Power +.

The power outputs at terminals 6, 7, and 8 are programmed as relays A, B, and C. All
relays are programmed in the
relay type, Fire Bell for example, when they are assigned to an area. Relays can be
assigned to one or more areas.
The Radionics defaults set relay A (terminal 6) as an Alarm Bell output, relay B (terminal
7) as a Fire Bell output, and relay C (terminal 8) as a Verification/Reset output. The

Optional Relays Required
Install an optional D136 plug-in relay into socket J1 to enable the output at terminal 7.
Install a D136 in socket J9 to enable the output at terminal 8. The relay sockets are under
the faceplate as shown in Figure 5.
Relay Installation
Power down the D9112 before
inserting the D136 relays. The plug-
M
in relays are shorter than the
sockets they plug into. See Figure
5. You can install them in either the
left or right end of the socket.

Don’t rely on relay labelling:
You shouldn’t rely on the labelling
to install D136 relays. Check for the
side with three pins. The three pins
go on the top side.
Incorrect insertion does not
damage the relay or the D9112,
however the related circuits do not
function properly.
Terminals 6 (relay A) and 7 (relay B), provide positive (+) 10.2 VDC to 13.9 VDC power
output when activated. Use the power at terminals 6 and 7 to power bells, siren drivers,
piezo 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 D9112 combines the 1.4A of primary power produced by the power supply with the
secondary power source (the battery) to produce a total of 2.0A of alarm power at 10.2 to
13.9 VDC. Terminals 6 and 7 share the available alarm power.

Use the
Fire System
Fire System Power Formula
To calculate the current available at terminals 6 and 7 for fire and combined fire/burglary
systems:
1. Add together the current draws for all devices connected to terminals 3, 8, 24, and
32, the Expansion Port (J4), and the Accessory Connect (J2). This total is the total
current required for the Normal Standby Condition (NSC).
2. The current available for Normal Standby Condition (NSC) for the D9112 is 1.4A.
Subtract the NSC current required calculated in step 1 from the NSC current
available, 1.4A. The difference is the Alarm Current available for terminals 6 and 7.
In formula format:
NSC current available – NSC current required = Alarm Current available
Terminal 8
Terminal 8 provides continuous positive (+) 10.2 VDC to 13.9 VDC 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 D9112 default program sets relay C (terminal 8) as a verification/reset relay. See the
Relay Parameters
(74-06145-000) for instructions on programming verification/reset relays and points.
Performing a CMD 47 at a command center produces a 5 second relay activation of
verification/reset relays. The panel ignores verification/reset points during the 5 seconds
of relay activation.
The Radionics D9112 Control/Communicator panel is registered with the Federal
Communication Commission under part 68, for connection to the public telephone system
using an RJ31X jack installed by your local phone company.
Do not connect registered equipment to party lines or coin-operated telephones. You
must notify the local telephone company and supply them with the following information
before connecting the panel to the telephone network.
•The particular line you are going to connect the panel to
•Make (Radionics), model (D9112), and serial number of the panel
Location
•FCC registration number and ringer equivalence for the panel (see
above)
To prevent jamming of signals, wire the RJ31X jack before the in-house phone system to
support line seizure. See Figure 6. Install the jack on the street side of the phone switch,
wired ahead of any PBX equipment. Line seizure provides for a temporary interruption of
normal phone usage while the communicator transmits data. After installation, confirm
that the panel seizes the line, acquires dial tone, reports correctly to the receiver, and
releases the phone line to the in-house phone system.
