6 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 1:
System components
The security system has three types of components: the control panel, devices
that report to the panel and devices that respond to commands from the panel
(Figure 1 below). (* Not investigated for use by UL.).
Figure 1: System components
Control panel
The control panel is the main processing unit for all system functions. It receives
and responds to signals from wireless sensors and wireless touchpads
throughout the premises. For monitored systems, the panel can be connected to
the premises phone line for central monitoring station, pager, and/or voice event
notification reporting.
Two panel models are available. One has an onboard 2-way voice microphone,
the other does not. The Interrogator 200 audio verification module can be added
to either panel.
Note: An optional Braille Kit (60-915) is available for visually impaired users.
User interface
When the panel cover is closed, the panel buttons operate the security system.
The user operates the panel by pressing panel buttons or by using a touchpad.
Refer to the User Manual for complete operation instructions.
When the panel cover is open, the buttons program the security system. The
panel can be programmed onsite by the installer or user, or from offsite using
Simon 3 Installation Manual 7
Chapter 1:
ToolBox® software. See the ToolBox manual and ToolBox online help for offsite
programming instructions.
ToolBox has not been investigated by UL and should not be used to program
panels in UL listed systems.
Panel tamper
If the panel cover is opened while the system is armed, an intrusion alarm
occurs. When the system status button is subsequently pressed, the panel says
System Access Alarm.
System devices
The system can monitor up to 24 sensors and may use any of the following:
Door/window sensor (60-670)
For intrusion protection, install Door/Window sensors on all ground-floor doors
and windows. At a minimum, install them in the following locations:
• All easily accessible exterior doors and windows.
• Interior doors leading into the garage.
• Doors to areas containing valuables such as cabinets and closets.
Indoor motion sensor (60-639)
Indoor motion sensors are ideal whenever it is not practical to install door/window
sensors on every opening. Identify areas where an intruder is likely to walk
through. Large areas in an open floor plan, downstairs family rooms, and
hallways are typical locations for indoor motion sensors. For installations with
pets, use the SAW Pet Immune PIR (60-807).
Outdoor motion sensor (60-639)
Use outdoor motion sensors to detect motion in a protected outdoor area.
Detected motion in this protected area can sound chimes or turn on outside
lights. Do not use outdoor motion sensors for intrusion protection.
Freeze sensor* (60-742)
Freeze sensors detect low temperature conditions which may indicate a furnace
failure. The sensor contains a bimetallic thermal switch connected to the built-in
transmitter. The sensor transmits an alarm signal to the panel when the
surrounding temperature drops to about 41°F (5°C). When the temperature rises
to 50°F (10°C), the sensor transmits a restore signal.
Water sensor* (60-744)
Water sensors detect a water leak/rising water. The detector is connected to the
sensor by an 8-foot (2.4-meter) cable. Water that reaches both detector contact
points activates the sensor, causing it to transmit an alarm signal.
8 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 1:
Smoke sensor (60-848-95)
Smoke sensors provide fire protection by causing an alarm to sound throughout
the house. You can add smoke sensors near sleeping areas and on every floor
of the house. Avoid areas that could have some smoke or exhaust such as attics,
kitchens, above fireplaces, dusty locations, garages, and areas with temperature
extremes. In these areas you may want to install Rate-of-Rise sensors to detect
extreme temperature changes. See “Emergency Planning” and the instructions
packaged with the smoke sensor for complete placement information.
Carbon monoxide (CO) alarm* (60-652-95)
The Learn Mode™ CO alarm alerts users to hazardous levels of carbon
monoxide gas. If dangerous concentrations of gas are present, the red indicator
light comes on, the internal siren goes off, and an alarm is transmitted to the
panel. The panel sounds its own alarm and reports to the central station.
Keyfob* (60-659)
The keyfob lets you turn the system on and off from right outside the home or
activate a panic alarm if there is an emergency. If you have X10 Lamp Modules,
you can use key-fobs to turn all system controlled lights on and off.
ELM (encrypted learn mode) keyfob* (60-832)
The ELM (Encrypted Learn Mode™) 2-button keyfob is an alkaline batterypowered, wireless touchpad that allows users to arm and disarm their system,
and activate a police or auxiliary panic alarm. Random encrypted signal
transmissions provide high security to help prevent signal copying.
Note: The ELM keyfob is only compatible with Simon® 3 panels version 3.3 and
later.
Remote handheld touchpad (60-671)
The remote handheld touchpad lets you turn the system on and off while in the
home, turn system controlled lights on and off (all or individual lights), or activate
a panic alarm if there is a non-medical emergency.
Dialog QS1500 touchtalk interactive keypad* (60-924-01-3)
The wall-mounted wireless Dialog QS1500 Touchtalk interactive keypad
combines a conventional Learn Mode™ touchpad with an RF receiver, speech
chip, and voice amplification circuit.
Dialog RF electronic thermostat* (60-909-95)
The Dialog RF Electronic Thermostat provides a money saving and convenient
way to monitor and control temperatures. The thermostat uses low and high
temperature limits to save energy. Temperature limits set on the thermostat
Simon 3 Installation Manual 9
Chapter 1:
determine when the heat or air conditioning turns on. There can be only one RF
Thermostat per system.
Water-resistant personal help button* (60-906-95)
The water-resistant personal help button is a wireless device used for activating
police, medical or auxiliary alarms through your system. When the help button is
pressed, the light mounted under the cover will blink and an alarm signal is
transmitted.
X10 modules*
When the panel is powered using the line carrier power transformer, the system
can work with any of the following modules:
• X10 lamp module (13-403)
• X10 appliance module (13-402)
• X10 power horn/remote siren module (13-398)
• X10 universal module (13-399)
Note: Use of X10 modules has not been investigated by UL.
Interrogator 200 audio verification module* (60-787)
The audio verification module (AVM) gives the central station operator the ability
to hear what’s happening at the premises during an alarm and to speak directly
to the system user. The operator can then determine how serious an alarm is,
find out what kind of help is needed, and dispatch the appropriate assistance.
Only one AVM may be installed per panel.
Ethernet interface module (60-938)
The Ethernet interface module is designed to provide an additional reporting
method for Simon panels. The module reports events to the
premisesconnect.com web site and up to two Osborne-Hoffman (OH2000E)
network receivers.
Premisesconnect.com is used by:
• Installers - to aid in installation and maintenance of security systems.
• Dealers - to simplify customer and account management.
• First responders - to identify where and how to respond.
• Customers - to receive event notifications and to control their security system.
Dialog™ telephone interface module (DTIM) (60-879-95R)
The DTIM is a battery operated communication link between the security system
control panel and the central monitoring station. The DTIM receives radio signals
from the panel, then uses the phone line to report security system events to the
central station.

Planning sensor types and locations
The first step to an easy and successful installation is to decide what areas or
items to protect, which lights or appliances to operate, and the best location for
the panel, touchpad, sensors, and sirens.
Metal objects, mirrors, and metallic wallpaper can block signals sent by the
wireless sensors. Make sure there are no metal objects in the way when
installing the system.
Use the planning tables in “System configuration” on page 90 to determine the
appropriate sensor type for the sensors you will be adding. You’ll need to
understand the application for each sensor. For example, keyfobs are typically
programmed as sensor group 01 (Portable panic), used to send an intrusion
alarm to a central monitoring station. This sensor type is instant intrusion, it does
not require restoral or supervisory communication with the panel and it is active
in 4 arming levels (disarm, arm doors & windows, arm motion sensors, and arm
doors/windows and motions sensors).

Chapter 1:
Control panel
Locate the panel where alarm sounds can be heard and is easily accessible for
operation. Do not install the panel near a window or door where it can be
reached easily by an intruder.
Remote handheld touchpad
Locate Remote Handheld Touchpads where they will be convenient and offer
quick access to the user.
QS1500 keypad
Locate QS1500 Keypads where they will be convenient and offer quick access to
the user. When mounted, they must be within 600 feet (183 meters) of the control
panel.
Keyfob
Keyfobs attach to the owner’s key ring or can be conveniently carried.
Dialog telephone interface module
Mount the DTIM within 100 feet (30 meters) of the panel, but no closer than 10
feet (3 meters) to another DTIM or the panel.
X10 modules
The system can control up to 8 individual unit numbers on Lamp, Wall switch,
Appliance, and Universal Modules.
House code and unit numbers
Each device (lamp, appliance, etc.) controlled by the panel must have an
identification setting. The modules use two dials to set identification codes: one
with letters A through P and one with numbers 1 through 16.
The lettered dial sets the house code, which enables the system to differentiate
this home from other homes in the area. Set all modules (except the remote
siren) and the panel to the same house code.
The numbered dial sets the unit number, which identifies and lets you control a
specific device. Each device must have a unique unit number (1-8) to be
individually controlled. For example, lights and appliances operated from a
Remote Handheld Touchpad or operated by a sensor; or lights programmed to
go on during the entry/exit delay or at scheduled times.
All Lamp Modules with the same house code will turn on or flash as a group
during an alarm or when operating the “Light” button on a key-fob.

Chapter 1:
X10 device
Settings
Lamp, appliance,
universal
Set all modules to the same house code (A to O) except the remote
sirens.
Note: When unit numbers 9-16 are used for lamp modules, they can only be
controlled by an all on or all off command. A lamp will flash to the arming level if
its unit number is set to 10. A lamp set to unit number 10 will flash once if the
panel is disarmed, twice if doors & windows are armed, etc. The remote siren
can be set to any unit number to hear alarm sounds. Set it to unit number 9 to
also hear arming level beeps, status beeps, and trouble beeps. Do not use a
lamp module to control appliances. Use an appliance module, since the wattage
rating on Lamp Modules is less than on Appliance Modules.
Manually controlling lights
Lights with even unit numbers (2, 4, 6, 8) can be controlled from either the panel,
Remote Handheld Touchpad or QS1500 Keypad. Lights with odd unit numbers
(1, 3, 5,7) can only be controlled from a Remote Handheld Touchpad or QS1500
Keypad.
To fill out the home control planning table, do the following:
1. Set the house code on all modules (except the remote siren) to the same
letter.
2. Set the Remote Siren house code to the next alphabetical letter. For example,
if you chose house code B in step 1 above, set the remote siren house code
to C.
3. Set the module unit numbers.
4. List the location of the lamp or appliance in the Location column.
5. Write the location of each lamp module on an adhesive note and label the
module.
6. Decide if the device should be activated by sensors, entry/exit delay time, or a
combination. An example of sensor activation is using a motion sensor to turn
on a light. Record the information in the appropriate columns.
Note: The house code instructions that come with the power-horn siren won’t
work with this panel. Follow the house code instructions given here.
Use Table 4 below and Table 5 on page 14 to help you plan X10 module
installations.
If you are using a universal module to operate a device, make sure to assign a
unique unit number to this module, choosing from 1 to 8.

connect sirens, hardwired contacts, and the AC power transformer.
Materials needed
• Pencil
• Phillips and flathead screwdrivers
Opening the panel cover and chassis
Tabs at the top of the panel secure and release the front cover and the chassis.
The plastic hinges on the panel bottom allow the cover and chassis to swing
down and out of the way (Figure 2 below).
Note: If Option 40 (trouble beeps) is on, the panel will sound six trouble beeps
every minute the panel cover is open.
Figure 2: Opening the cover
Mounting the panel
The panel must be securely mounted on a wall or on the optional Tabletop Base.
16 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 2:
Wall mounted panel
The panel must be securely mounted to the wall using the four screws supplied
to prevent accidental movement and to protect the consumer from the system
wiring and terminals.
To wall mount the panel, do the following:
1. Choose a panel location.
2. Run all necessary power, phone, siren, and hardwired contact wires to the
desired panel location.
3. Hold the panel against the wall and mark the mounting hole locations
(Figure 3 below) with a pencil.
4. Insert wall anchors into holes where studs are not present.
5. Install all screws and tighten gently.
When choosing the AC outlet location for the AC power transformer, make sure
the outlet is not controlled by a switch or that it is not part of a ground fault
interrupt circuit (GFIC).
Figure 3: Wall-mount mounting holes
Tabletop mounted panel
The tabletop base must be fitted to the back of the panel if the panel is to be
used on a table or bench.
To mount the panel using a tabletop base, do the following:
1. Select a suitable location near power and phone line.
Simon 3 Installation Manual 17
Chapter 2:
2. Run all necessary wires from the panel through the openings in the tabletop
base.
3. Place the panel back on the tabletop base until the top and bottom panel
mounting holes line up with the mounting holes on the tabletop base (Figure 4
below).
4. Secure the panel to the tabletop base with the screws provided.
5. Ensure the cables are neat and will not create a tripping hazard.
Note: A tabletop mounted application is only recommended when the panel
requires the power and telephone cable as the only hardwired connections. Use
the wall mounted position in all other applications.
Figure 4: Tabletop mounting holes
Connecting hardwired devices
The panel has seven screw terminals located on the upper-right corner of the
circuit board (see Figure 3 on page 15) for connecting AC power, sirens and/or
hardwired detectors.
Note: Program sensors and devices before you install them.
AC terminals
These terminals are used for connecting a Class II 9 VAC, 700 mA AC power
transformer. For systems with no X10 modules, use transformer part no. 22-109ITI. For systems with X10 modules, use transformer part no. 22-129-ITI.
All inputs and outputs are Class II power limited circuits.
18 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 2:
HWIN1, HWIN2, and DCOUT terminals
These terminals are dual purpose and can be used for either siren or hardwired
detector connections. Options 96 and 97 control how the output on HWIN1 and
HWIN2 will function.
Sirens
From the factory, these terminals are set up for siren operation with HWIN1
handling interior sirens (status and alarm sounds), HWIN2 handling exterior
sirens (alarm sounds only), and DCOUT providing the positive (+) voltage.
With Option 53: Hardwired Siren Supervision turned on, sirens connected to
HWIN1 and HWIN2 are supervised and require a 4.7 kohm resistor in the circuit.
If either of these terminals is not used with Option 53 on, you must connect a 4.7
kohm resistor between the unused terminal and DCOUT.
Note: The total current available from the DCOUT terminal is 250 mA (50 mA
with the Ethernet interface module installed) at up to 122°F (50°C).
Hardwired Detectors
To set up HWIN1 and/or HWIN2 for hardwired detectors, make the required
connections as described under “Wiring Hardwired Contacts,” then proceed to
Programming on page 17 to add (learn) them into panel memory.
Wiring interior sirens
Panel terminal HWIN1 can be used for connecting interior sirens and activates
for status and alarm sounds.
For circuit supervision, which allows the panel to detect if the siren wire is cut
(open), “Option 53: Hardwired siren supervision” on page 57 must be turned on
and interior sirens must be wired with a resistor in the circuit.
LD105 hardwired interior siren
Connect the LD105 hardwired interior siren (13-374) to the panel using a 4.7
kohm resistor (included with siren) as shown in Figure 5 on page 20. The resistor
must be connected across the siren wires as close to the siren as possible. Do
not install the resistor at the panel terminals. This does not provide supervision of
the wire.
Simon 3 Installation Manual 19
Chapter 2:
Figure 5: Hardwire interior siren with supervision
Note: If you are installing only an interior siren and no exterior siren and Option
53 is on, you must connect a 4.7 kohm resistor between the HWIN1 and DCOUT
terminals in addition to the resistor between HWIN2 and siren and Option 53 is
on, you must connect a 4.7 kohm resistor between the HWIN2 and DCOUT
terminals in addition to the resistor between HWIN1 and DCOUT.
Wiring exterior sirens
Panel terminal HWIN2 can be used for connecting exterior sirens and activates
when intrusion and fire alarms occur. Exterior sirens can be wired with or without
a resistor in the circuit for supervision. For circuit supervision which allows the
panel to detect if the siren wire is cut (open), “Option 53: Hardwired siren
supervision” on page 57 must be turned on.
Hardwired exterior siren with supervision
Connect the hardwired exterior siren (13-046) to the panel using a 4.7 kohm
resistor (included with siren) as shown in Figure 6 on page 21. The resistor must
be connected across the siren wires as close to the siren as possible. Do not
install the resistor at the panel terminals. This does not provide supervision of the
wire.
20 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 2:
Figure 6: Hardwire exterior siren with supervision
Note: If you are installing only an exterior siren and no interior siren and Option
53 is on, you must connect a 4.7 kohm resistor between the HWIN1 and DCOUT
terminals in addition to the resistor between HWIN2 and DCOUT shown in
Figure 6 above.
Hardwired exterior siren without supervision
With Option 53 turned off, connect the Hardwired Exterior Siren (13-046) to the
panel without a resistor as shown in Figure 7 below.
Figure 7: Hardwire exterior siren without supervision
Wiring hardwired contacts
You can connect hardwired reed switches (normally closed loop only) to HWIN1
and/or HWIN2, if either terminal is not being utilized for a hardwired siren. Other
types of hardwired detectors should not be used.
The total resistance of the wire loop must not exceed 3 ohms. This allows you to
use up to 200 feet (61 meters) of 2-conductor, 22-gauge stranded wire.
Simon 3 Installation Manual 21
Chapter 2:
Connect hardwired reed switches to the panel using a 47 kohm resistor as shown
in Figure 8 below. The resistor must be connected at the last switch in the circuit.
Do not install the resistor at the panel terminals. This does not provide
supervision of the wire.
Figure 8: Normally closed hardwire reed switches
Wiring a phone line to the panel
You can connect a phone line to the panel for systems monitored by a central
monitoring station and/or systems that notify users by a digital pager or voice
event notification.
Basically, there are two methods for connecting the panel to a phone line; full line
seizure and no line seizure.
Full line seizure
This method requires that the panel be wired ahead (or in front) of all other
phones, answering machines, computers, or other devices on the phone line.
This allows the panel to take over (seize) the phone line, even if another device
on the line is in use.
An RJ-31X (CA-38A) jack should be installed when wiring for full line seizure.
This lets the user quickly and easily disconnect the panel from the phone line in
case the panel disables the phone line due to a malfunction.
Note: For UL Listed systems, the RJ31X jack must be mounted within 5 feet
(1.5meters) of the panel.
22 Simon 3 Installation Manual
Chapter 2:
Full line seizure wiring with an RJ31X
For full-line seizure with an RJ31X, see Figure 9 on page 24 and do the
following:
1. Run a 4-conductor cable from the TELCO block to the RJ-31X (A).
2. Connect the 4-conductor cable wires to the RJ-31X (B).
3. Disconnect the Green and Red premises phone jack wires from the TELCO
block and splice them to the 4-conductor cable Black and White (or Yellow)
wires (C). Use weatherproof wire connectors for these splices.
4. Connect the 4-conductor cable Green and Red wires to the TELCO block TIP
(+)and Red to RING (-) posts (D).
5. Connect the phone cord included with the panel to the RJ31X and the panel
LINEIN jack (E).
Note: For UL listed systems, the RJ31X jack must be mounted within 5 ft. (1.5 m)
of the panel.
Full line seizure with one premises phone
If a single phone is all that exists on the premises, full line seizure can be
accomplished without an RJ-31X.
For full seizure with a premises phone, see Figure 9 on page 24 and do the
following:
1. Disconnect the phone from the premises phone jack and plug it into the panel
PHONE jack (A). This jack is disconnected automatically whenever the panel
reports.
2. Connect the phone cord included with the panel to the panel LINE IN jack and
the premises phone jack (B).
Note: If the customer ever adds a phone or other phone device to another phone
jack, full line seizure no longer exists. Inform the customer to contact you if they
want to add a phone or other device so that you can rewire for full line seizure by
adding an RJ-31X.
Simon 3 Installation Manual 23
Chapter 2:
Figure 9: Full line seizure wiring
No line seizure
This method is typically used where DSL (digital subscriber line) service exists.
DSL allows multiple devices on a single phone line to be used simultaneously.
Connecting the panel LINE IN jack to an available phone jack on the premises is
all that is required. An in-line filter may be required to ensure panel reporting is
successful. Connecting the panel to a standard phone (voice) line in this manner
should be avoided. Other devices in use at the same time the panel is using the
line can prevent reports from going through.
Note: For UL installations, installer needs to verify line seizure.
Wiring the power transformer
Connect the power transformer to the panel AC terminals as shown in Figure 10
on page 25.
Note: Do not plug in the transformer at this time
