Chapter 1:

Product overview

This security system can be used as a fire warning system, an intrusion alarm system, an emergency notification system, or any combination of the three. The system (Figure 1) has three types of components:

• Self-contained control panel

• Devices that report to the panel

• Devices that respond to commands from the panel

Figure 1: Simon XT TableTop Control Panel system

Note: The universal, lamp, and appliance modules require a special transformer.

The self-contained panel provides 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 reporting.

You can program the panel onsite from the keypad or remotely using Enterprise Downloader software. See Chapter 4 “Programming” on page 31 for complete onsite programming instructions.

Chapter 1:

Device

Description

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.

X10 module

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)

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.

Smoke sensor (TX6010-01)

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. Emergency planning on page 15 and the instructions packaged with the smoke sensor for complete placement information.

System components

The system can monitor up to 40 sensors and may use any of the devices listed in Table 1

Table 1: Supported devices

Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual 3

Chapter 1:

Device

Description

Carbon monoxide (CO) alarm (60652-95)

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 (keychain touchpad) 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 keyfobs 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.

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 nonmedical emergency.

Simon XT Table Top Touchpad (80924-3-XT -TT)

The 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 nonmedical emergency.

Water-resistant personal help button (60-906-95)

The water-resistant personal help button is a wireless device used for activating police 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.

Planning the installation

This section describes system capabilities to help you get familiar with your system. The planning sheets contain tables that let you record the hardware and programming configuration of your system. Complete all of the information ahead of time to help prepare for system installation. Refer to Sensor names on page 64 for sensor name segments listed alphabetically and by index number.

Control panel location

Locate the panel where alarm sounds can be heard and where the panel will be easily accessible for operation. Do not install the panel near a window or door where it can be reached easily by an intruder.

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 Table 3 below, Recommended sensor groups and Table 4 on page 9, Sensor group characteristics to determine the appropriate sensor type for the sensors you will be adding. Use Table 5 on page 11, Sensor assignments/locations to document the planned sensor information. You will need to understand the application for each sensor. For example, keyfobs are typically programmed as sensor group 01 (portable panic) and 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 the following arming levels:

• Level 0 - Sub-disarm.

• Level 1 - Disarm.

• Level 2 - Arm doors and windows.

• Level 3 - Arm motion sensors.

• Level 4 - Arm doors/windows and motion sensors.

Cross-zoning

Cross-zoning (two-trip) refers to two different group 18 sensors that must be tripped within two minutes of each other to report an alarm to the central station. Figure 2 shows the path of a person walking from the kitchen to the living room. When the person is detected walking through the kitchen, the motion sensor in the kitchen is tripped, sounding a local alarm. If motion is detected by the living room motion sensor within two minutes, an alarm report will be sent to the central station.

Chapter 3:

Panel connections

The panel has three screw terminals, two telephone connections, and a 9 VAC plug (Figure 3).

Figure 3: Simon XT TableTop Control Panel terminal connections

Hardwired device terminals

The screw terminals connect sirens, and/or hardwired detectors. Program sensors and devices before you install them. Follow the instructions in

Sensors on page 35 to add the sensors to panel memory.

HW1 I/O, HW2 In, and HW1&2 DC Out terminals

The HW1 I/O terminal is dual purpose and can be used for either siren or hardwired contact connections. The HW2 In terminal is an input only.

Interior sirens

From the factory, the HW1 I/O terminal input is set up for interior siren operation (status and alarm sounds). HW1&2 DC Out provides the positive (+) voltage.

22 Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual

Chapter 3:

Note: The total current available from HW1&2 DC Out is 250 mA at up to 120°F (49°C).

With Hardwired Siren Supervision turned on, sirens connected to HW1 I/O are supervised and require a 4.7 kohm resistor in the circuit. If this terminal is not used, turn Hardwired Siren Supervision off.

LD105 hardwired interior siren

You must always wire interior sirens with a resistor in the circuit. For circuit supervision which allows the panel to detect if the siren wire is cut (open), you must turn on Hardwired Siren Supervision. (See Table 21 on page 42).

Note: Do not install the resistor at the panel terminals. This does not provide supervision of the wire.

Connect the LD105 hardwired interior siren (13-374) to the panel using a 4.7 kohm resistor (included with the siren) as shown in Figure 4. The resistor must be connected across the siren wires as close to the siren as possible.

Figure 4: Hardwired interior siren with supervision

Hardwired contacts

To set up HW1 I/O and/or HW2 In for hardwired contacts, make the required connections as described below, then proceed to Programming overview on page 26 to add (learn) them into panel memory.

You can connect hardwired reed switches (normally closed loop only) to HW1 I/O, if not being used for a hardwired siren, and/or HW2 In.

Connect only normally closed (NC) reed switches to HW1 I/O and/or HW2 In. 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 ft. (61 m) of two-conductor, 22-gauge stranded wire.

Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual 23

Chapter 3:

Connect hardwired reed switches to the panel using a 47 kohm resistor (not a 4.7 kohm resistor) as shown in Figure 5. 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 5: Connecting normally closed hardwired reed switches

Telephone connections

You can connect a phone line to the panel for systems monitored by a central monitoring station or systems that notify users by a voice event notification.

DSL (digital subscriber line) allows the use of multiple devices on a single phone line simultaneously. For DSL environments, connect the panel line-in jack to an available phone jack on the premises. You might also need an inline filter to ensure panel reporting is successful.

Note: Avoid connecting the panel to a standard phone (voice) line in this manner. Other devices in use at the same time the panel is using the line can prevent reports from going through.

Full line seizure

Full line seizure allows the panel to take over (seize) the phone line, even if another device on the line is in use. This method requires that the panel be wired before all other phones, answering machines, computers, or other devices on the phone line.

Use the RJ31X (CA-38A) jack 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.

To wire a full line seizure with an RJ31X, see Figure 6 on page 21 and do the following:

1. Run a four-conductor cable from the premises Telco block to the RJ31X.

24 Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual

Chapter 3:

2. Connect the four-conductor cable wires to the RJ31X.

3. Disconnect the green and red premises phone jack wires from the Telco block

and splice them to the four-conductor cable black and white (or yellow) wires.

Use weatherproof wire connectors for these splices.

4. Connect the four-conductor cable green and red wires to the Telco block TIP

(+) and red to RING (–) posts.

5. Connect the phone cord included with the panel to the RJ31X and the panel

LINE jack.

Figure 6: Full line seizure wiring with RJ31X

If a single phone is all that exists on the premises, full line seizure can be accomplished without an RJ31X.

To wire a single phone, see Figure 7 and do the following:

1. Disconnect the phone from the premises phone jack and plug it into the panel

PHONE jack. This jack is disconnected automatically whenever the panel

reports.

Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual 25

Chapter 3:

2. Connect the included phone cord to the panel LINE jack and the premises phone jack.

Note: If customers add phones or other phone devices to another phone jack, full line seizure no longer exists. Inform them 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 RJ31X.

Figure 7: Full line seizure wiring with single landline phone

Power transformer connection

Connect the power transformer to the panel AC connector as shown in Figure 8.

26 Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual

Chapter 3:

Figure 8: Transformer connections

Note: Do not plug in the transformer at this time

Powering up the panel

When applying power to the panel, first connect the backup battery, then plug in the AC power transformer. This sequence prevents a battery fault condition.

Maximum battery charge current is 45 mA. It may take up to 24 hours for a new battery to fully charge.

Backup battery

To connect the backup battery (6 VDC, 1.2 Ah), do the following:

1. Pull up on the tabs at the bottom of the battery compartment cover (Figure 3 on page 18) to lift off the cover.

2. Remove the white plastic covers on the battery terminals.

3. Connect the red battery lead to the red battery terminal (+) and the black battery lead to the black battery terminal (-).

4. Place the battery in the battery compartment and replace the battery compartment cover by aligning the tabs at the top of the cover first, then snapping the bottom of the cover down.

Caution: Do not connect the battery until you are ready to power up the panel.

Simon XT TableTop Control Panel Installation Manual 27

Chapter 3:

Applying AC power

To apply AC power, do the following:

1. Make sure the outlet is not controlled by a switch or that it is not part of a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI).

2. Remove the center screw from the outlet cover plate and hold the cover plate in place.

WARNING: Use extreme caution when securing the transformer to a metal outlet

cover. You could receive a serious shock if a metal cover drops down onto the prongs of the plug.

3. Plug the transformer into the lower receptacle of the outlet so that the hole in the transformer tab lines up with the outlet cover screw hole.

4. Insert the cover plate screw through the transformer tab and the outlet cover plate. Tighten the screw.

X10 modules

To install lamp and appliance modules, do the following:

1. Set the unit code dial to a unit number between 1 and 8.

2. Set the housecode for the installation.

3. Plug the module into a wall outlet.

4. Plug the lamp/appliance into the module

Caution: Do not plug in appliances or lamps with 300-watt or larger bulbs into

Description

Autoarm

Determines how long the system protests (announces open/failed sensors) when attempting to arm with open/failed sensors, before bypassing these sensors and automatically arming the rest of the system.

The panel protests an arming attempt when it has not received a restore (close) signal from sensors learned into restore-specific sensors groups. Sensors learned into group 26 (fire) cannot be bypassed.

When this option is on, the panel announces all open/failed sensors repeatedly for 4 minutes, then automatically bypasses the open sensors and arms the rest of the system. If a sensor is opened during the exit delay and then left open, the panel will go into alarm after the exit delay has expired.

This option must be on for Unvacated premises and Exit extension to work correctly.

When this option is off, the panel displays all open/failed sensors once, then automatically bypasses the open sensors and arms the rest of the system after the exit delay has expired. If other sensors are opened during the exit delay, they will also be bypassed if left open.

Note: If group 13 (instant perimeter) sensors are opened during the exit delay, the panel goes into immediate alarm.

Exit extend

Determines whether the panel restarts the exit delay time if the user enters the armed premises during the initial exit delay period (on), or not (off). Turning on this feature allows users to reenter during the exit delay period, without disarming and then rearming the system. Turning off this feature requires the user to disarm and rearm the system.

Autoarm must be on for this option to work.

Secure arming

Off

Determines whether an access code is required when arming the system (on) or not (off). This option does not affect keyfob arm/disarm operation.

No arm on low battery

Off

Determines whether the system protests arming if a low CPU battery condition exists (on) or not (off).

Quick exit

Off

Determines whether pressing Disarm when the system is armed activates the exit delay time to allow exit and reentry without disarming the system (on) or not (off).

This feature is useful if the user wants to step outside briefly and return, such as to get the paper. If the system is armed and the user presses Disarm, the panel announces Exit time is on and sounds exit delay beeps. This allows a designated entry/exit door to be open for up to 2 minutes without causing alarm. When the door is closed, the beeps stop and the door is armed again.

Determines when the panel answers a remote phone access or Enterprise call. Depending on whether an answering machine exists at the panel location, offsite access to the panel can be done with a series of phone calls or just one. For offsite access where an answering machine does not exist, the user or Enterprise operator simply calls the panel location once and listens for 10 rings. The panel should answer after the tenth ring.

For offsite access where an answering machine exists, the user or Enterprise operator must perform the following steps:

• Call the panel location.

• Let the phone ring once, then hang up.

• Wait at least 10 seconds but not more than 40, then call the

panel location again. The panel should answer on the first ring.

Dial delay

30 seconds

Determines whether the panel delays dialing programmed phone numbers before sending reports (on).

If Opening (disarming) Reports is on, the panel does not delay dialing if the system is disarmed before the delay time expires. The panel dials immediately for both the alarm and opening report.

Regardless of this option setting, the panel always dials immediately for fire alarms, AC power failure and low battery reports.

Call wait code

Off

The call waiting code is dialed by the panel before a phone number to disable call waiting. Verify that the end-user has call waiting with his phone service provider before changing this option from its default.

Caution: Changing this option from its default without call waiting

3. Interior sirens sound transmission beeps, and the display identifies the tripped sensor and the number of RF packets received. Each beep represents one RF packet. Count the number of beeps and refer to Table 29 below for minimum requirements. After the beeps, the panel displays Sn # Packets=XX Name (where XX equals the number of RF packets and Name equals the sensor name). The system will continue to prompt for sensors that have not yet been tested. When all sensors have been tested, the panel will display Sn test complete press Status.

Note: If a sensor does not meet the minimum transmission beep requirements, see If a sensor fails the sensor test

4. Press Status. The panel displays Sensor test OK. If you press Status and the panel has not heard from all sensors, the panel will

display Sn test fail or aborted.

If a sensor fails the sensor test

If sirens do not beep when a sensor is tripped, use an RF Sniffer (60-401) test tool to verify that the sensor is transmitting. Constant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate a runaway (faulty) sensor. Replace the sensor.

If possible, locate sensors within 100 feet (30 meters) of the panel. While a sensor may have a range of 500 feet (152 meters) or more out in the open, the environment at the installation site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. A change in sensor location may help overcome adverse wireless conditions and can be accomplished by the following:

• Reposition the sensor.

• Relocate the sensor.

• If necessary, replace the sensor.

To reposition a sensor, do the following:

1. Rotate the sensor and test for improved sensor communication at 90 and 180 degrees from the original position.

2. If poor communication persists, relocate the sensor.

To relocate a sensor, do the following:

1. Test the sensor a few inches from the original position.

2. Increase the distance from the original position and retest until an acceptable location is found.

3. Mount the sensor in the new location.

4. If no location is acceptable, replace the sensor.

To replace a sensor, do the following:

1. Test a known good sensor at the same location.

2. If the transmission beeps remain below the minimum level, avoid mounting a sensor at that location.
