ETC Echo Lockout Station User Manual

ETC Installation Guide

The Lockout station is designed for use with any
EchoConnect-enabled system including Echo Zone
Controllers, Echo Relay Panels, Sensor3 and Unison DRd
with Echo ACP.

Unison® Echo Lockout Station

Overview

Echo Lockout station enables security for stations within a space, preventing
unwanted control-activation from all stations within the space while the keyed
lockout is enabled.

Prepare for Installation

Echo Lockout stations ship with station electronics, faceplate, termination kit,
(2) keys, and installation hardware. The station may be installed into a standard
back box (provided by others) or surface mounted back box (sold separately
and available from ETC).

Lockout stations connect to the EchoConnect station communication bus.
EchoConnect is a bidirectional protocol that uses one pair of wires (data+ and
data-) for both data and power. ETC recommends using Belden 8471 (or
approved equal) Class II wire. The total combined length of an EchoConnect
wire run may not exceed 1,640 feet (500m).

Note:

All control wiring should be installed and terminated by a qualified
installer and should follow standard wiring installation practices.

Leave approximately 10 inches (254mm) of wiring in the back box
for connection and to allow slack for future service needs.

Note:

ETC requires that all stations be grounded. Pull an additional
14 AWG (1.5mm2) wire for grounding when control wires are not
installed in grounded metal conduit.

Environmental

Echo™ Lockout Station

Installation

Installation should follow all local codes and standard electrical practices. The
back box (provided by others) should be installed level and square for best
results. Ensure that the back box is clean and free of obstructions and that all
wiring is installed correctly and in accordance with local codes.

Lockout stations ship with a termination kit for use with Belden 8471 (or
equivalent wire) and contains a power pigtail, a ground wire pigtail, spacers,
and all required wire termination connectors for installation.

Note:

When using Category5 (or equivalent) cable on the EchoConnect
communication bus, please note the following:

- Not all topologies are supported using Cat5; careful planning is
required to ensure the proper termination kits are available and
the wire is pulled appropriately.

- Cat5 wiring may be terminated using an EchoConnect Cat5
Station Termination Kit and must be installed using a bus
topology. Refer to the installation guide that is provided with the
Cat5 Station Termination Kit (7186A1207) for information to
terminate Cat5 wiring.

Assign the Station Address and Space

Echo Lockout station includes a set of rotary switches that determine space
assignment and station address.
