Installation Instructions
for the
DS7460i Dual Zone Input Module
1.0 Description
The DS7460i is a Dual Zone Input Module designed to operate with
compatible multiplex systems. It provides two supervised input zones
for connection of conventional normally open or normally closed
contacts. Each DS7460i occupies two multiplex zone addresses on
the system and can monitor up to two separate zones. The DS7460i
connects to the DS7430 or DS7436 Multiplex Expansion Modules or
the D8125MUX Multiplex Expansion Module.
For additional information about installing the DS7460i, refer to the
D9412GV2/D7412GV2 Approved Applications Compliance Guide
(P/N: F01U003639).
2.0 Specifications

When used in a fire alarm system, NFPA 72 prohibits this
product from sharing a communication bus with non-fire
devices.
3.0 Programming
Consult the intended control panel's installation guide for multiplex
zone (point) programming information.
Each DS7460i will require two multiplex addresses.
Program the control panel (or D8125MUX) as described in the control
panel's reference guide.
Disconnect power to the panel before running wires to
connect the DS7460i.
After any programming or hardware change, do a
functional test of the system as required by local codes.
Remove the cover of the DS7460i. Press in and up with your thumb
and nail directly above the lip of the DS7460i (see Figure 1).
Figure 1: Removing the Cover
Remove the DS7460i circuit board from the base. Press the circuit
board retainer tab and pull the circuit board up and out of the base
(see Figure 2).

• Route the wiring through the wire entrance of the DS7460i base.
• Mount the DS7460i base to the mounting surface using the
supplied screws.
• Return the DS7460i circuit board to the base.

4.0 Installation
These Installation Instructions assume the control panel is installed
and in proper working condition.
The control panel (or D8125MUX) must be programmed
and the DS7460i address switches must be set for the
DS7460i to operate.
The input zones are power limited and supervised.
When used in fire applications, Normally Open contacts
must be used on the input zones.
Connect wiring to the DS7460i as shown in Figures 4-6.
Protection zones are designed to monitor Normally Open or Normally
Closed dry contacts. They are supervised using 47 kilohm end-ofline resistors.

Zone 1 may be used as a magnetic contact by mounting
a magnet in conjunction with the reed switch and removing
the EOL resistor for Zone 1. Zone 1 may not be used as a
magnetic contact and used to monitor other contacts at
the same time.
It may be desirable to cut the reed switch from the DS7460i circuit
board if it is not being used. This will eliminate possible tampering
to override Zone 1 operation.
For fire installations, order Multiplex Fire Zone EOL P/N: 28010 in the
quantity needed.

6.0 Switch Settings
Set the address switch settings before connecting the DS7460i to the
multiplex bus.
No two DS7460i Dual Zone modules may be set to the
same address. Having two or more units set to the same
address may prevent fault detection or cause multiplex
bus failure.
