General Information
The Model 12584-002 I/O Control Module is designed to monitor contact closure devices connected to its
input, and to turn devices on or off that are connected to its output. It operates as a slave device reporting
to a syste m ma ster controller via a seri al data line conn e c tion. The ma ster c ontr oller is programmed to
recognize the I/O Control Module and process the data information received from it.
Typically, the system master controller is a
computer or a GAI-Tronics Model 10959
Series Audio Messenger Interface (AMI). In
special applications, the system master
control ler can be another I/O Control Mo dule
that is reprogrammed with custom software.
In general, the Model 12584-002 I/O Control
Module provides the following features:
Digital Inpu t Monitori ng
The I/O Control Module can monitor up to 32
voltage-free contact inputs. The contacts can
be normally open or closed. Additionally, they
can be momentary or maintained type
activation. The programming of the system
master controller defines how each input is activated. Each input is individually programmed for the type
of activation switch and the resulting event.
Analo g Inpu t Monit oring
The I/O Control Module monitors up to eight analog voltage inputs from 0 to +5 V dc. Each input is
individually programmed to activate on a pre-programmed voltage threshold level.
Figure 1. Model 12584-002 I/O Control Module
OTE: This feature is not available when an AMI is acting as the master controller device.

Outpu t Control
The module provides up to 32 open collector control outputs for activating devices such as relays,
indicators, or other on/off devices. The outputs can be active high (off) or active low (on). Additionally,
they can be momentary (pulsed) or maintained type activation. The programming of the system master
controller defines how the outputs are activated. Each output is individually programmed to activate
during a cert ain system event.
Accessory D evice to the GAI-Tronic s AMI
There ar e two ways the devic e can be u se d with the AMI:
• Input/output exte nsion module - This application provides 32 additional switch inputs to the AMI
that can be programmed for alarm activation, alarm reset, muting, or telephone interface control
switches.
• Serial dat a alarm control - This application allows the system master controller to activate and reset
alarms on the AMI from a remote location without using contact closure inputs wired directly to the
AMI.
Each allocation requires a unique data connection to the AMI. Refer to the Installation section for wiring
diagrams.
Data Line Selecti on and Settings
The Model 12584-002 I/O Control Module supports both RS485 and RS232 data connections. The
RJ232 connection is accessed from a male DB-9 connector. There are two different RS485 data
connections. RS485 #1 is accessed from terminal block TB1 and TB2, and RS485 #2 is accessed on an
RJ45 receptacle .
• Data connecti o n to system master controller must be ma d e using either the RS4 8 5 #1 da ta connection
OR the RS232 data connection. Both cannot be used simultaneously.
A 3-position jumper (J6) selects either RS232 or RS485 #1 data communication.
- Shor t pins 1 and 2 to sel e c t RS485 data on TB2.
- Short pins 2 and 3 to select RS232 data on DB9 connector.
RS485 #1 data connection is made to terminal blocks TB1 and TB2. Refer to Table 7 and Table 8 in
the Installation section of this manual for data line connection details.
RS232 data connection is made to the male DB-9 connector. A null-modem cable should be used for
connection to the master controlling device.
• The RJ45 receptacle connection is used exclusively for serial data control of the AMI as mentioned
above. Refer to Table 9 in the Installation section of this manual for data line connection details. Do
not use this data connection for the system master controller.
After selecting the data line type, there are several other switches on the I/O Control Module that must be
set to the proper data format to communicate with the controlling device. Each switch is labeled on the
module case. The following sections describe each switch in detail.

Address S witches S1 a nd S2
S1 an S2 are hexadecimal switches that are used to set the I/O Controller’s address. If the system
contains more than one I/O Controller, each device must be set with a different address. The device’s
addressing should be set in se quential ord er sta rting with address 01. Swit ch S2 sets the first digit a nd
switch S1 sets the second digit.
Example:
Address 01: S2 = 0, S1 = 1
Address 02: S2 = 0, S1 = 2
Address 03: S2 = 0, S1 = 3
OTE: After changing the board address, the RESET button must be momentarily depressed for the new
N
address to take effect.
DIP Switch S4
An 8-p osition DIP switch S 4 sets various data par amete rs and operation paramet ers of the I/O c ontr oller.
The following tables indicate each switch position and the corresponding settings/functions.
DIP switch S4 positions 1-3 set the serial data line baud rate as follows:

TB10 and TB9 - Digital Output Connections
The TB10 and TB9 connectors each provide 16 digital (common ground) output connections designed to
drive externally-mounted relays or other indicating circuits. Each output can sink up to 100 mA of
current. External circuitry (relays, indicators, etc.) must be powered from an external power supply of the
same voltage used to power the I/O Control Module (12 to 24 V dc). The ground (or dc common)
terminals of the external power supply must be tied to TB4 (-).

TB5, TB6, TB7, and T B8 - Digital I nput Conne ctions
The TB5, TB6, TB7 and TB8 connectors each provide connections for eight contact closure inputs.
Switches or relay contact closures are used to activate the inputs. The input contacts may be any
comb inati on of mo me ntary (pulsed) swit ches and ma intained (latch e d) switches . They can be e ither N .O.
or N.C. dry contacts rated at 5 mA minimum.
N
OTE: For the inputs to operate reliably, the cable loop resistance connecting the relay/switch contact
closures cannot exceed 200 ohms. For example, using No. 24 AWG cable, the maximum cable length for
connection of the relay/switch contact closures cannot exceed 1,500 feet. Refer to the terminal block
assignment charts and Figure 3 below.

TB11 - Anal og Input Co nnections
TB11 is used for monitor sensors or dc voltage. An industry standard for sensors is to produce a 4 to 20
milliamp (mA) output to represent a range from no signal to full scale signal, with 0 mA being an
indication of an error condition. A 250-ohm resistor will produce a 1 to 5 V dc signal when 4 to 20 mA
flows through it resulting in a signal that can be connected directly to the input, assuming it is not greater
than 5 V dc. For voltages greater than 5 V, a resistor voltage divider network must be installed to reduce
the voltage level present on the input.
