This equipment is intended only for use as a Security Alarm Control Panel. Adequate
ventilation away from heat and humidity must be provided. The unit must be fixed
securely to a non-flammable surface using suitable fixings.
All mains wiring must conform to the relevant current IEEE wiring regulations (or
appropriate international regulatory standards). See Mains Supply Connection section
within this manual for more detailed instructions.
All wiring must be protected from sharp or jagged edges.
All low voltage (alarm) wiring must be to the appropriate international regulatory
standards and comply to good wiring practice and should be routed away from the
mains cables.
Replacement fuses should be of the same type and rating conforming to IEC 127.
The GT490X Control Panel is fitted with resettable fuses. The areas protected are
Battery, Aux and Keypad. In the event of a fuse tripping or an input/ output not
working, remove the source of the load and check wiring for shorts. Check any added
devices for full functionality before any reconnection.
The maximum current draw from the unit for all output combinations must not exceed
1A.
Sounders, detectors and other auxiliary items, including the control panel and
keypad(s), should be included when calculating current drawn by the system.
Any damage caused through overloading the Control Panel Supply will not be covered
by the warranty.
We recommend that additional power supplies are used to supply detectors on long
cable runs.
The unit is intended for use with a suitable re-chargeable lead acid battery
permanently connected to the appropriate terminals.

1INTRODUCTION
The GT490X Control Panel is a microprocessor based unit that has been designed to
be suitable for all types of domestic and commercial installations. All zones are fully
programmable by the engineer.
On power up / reset, the Control Panel can be set to the old BS or EN2 (Grade 2)
operating standards.
systems before commencement of programming.
Upon completion of the installation the engineer may, if required, re-program several
factory set options so as to tailor the Control Panel to suit the requirements of the system.
The GT490X Control Panel uses 32 character LCD Remote Keypads for control of the
system via User Code(s) and programming of the system via an Engineer Code. The
Factory Default Codes are:
Default Master User Code5678
Default Engineer Code 1234
It is ESSENTIAL that a 4 6 YES NO reset is done to all new
The Engineer code may be ‘Locked’ into the system during engineer
programming and it should be noted that if the ‘Locked’ code is not known the
only way to have it returned to the factory default is to return the PCB to the
factory.
Option Formats. When an option cannot be changed the display will show a : rather
than the usual = sign. Pressing the No key is disregarded and the panel will react as
though the Yes key has been pressed (i.e. it will move onto the next option).

GT490X Engineer’s Reference Guide
2SYSTEM INSTALLATION - WIRING
Planning the Control Panel Location
Consideration in locating the fixing position of the Control Panel should be given to:
Access for the routing of cables for the system from detection devices,
sounders (internal and external), remote keypads, mains, etc.
The position of the underside retaining screw.
The fixing of a 3 amp fused spur with disconnection facility.
When fitting the RKP(s) consideration should be given to:
Operation of the keypad.
Readability of the display.
The Panel should be fixed to the wall using appropriate wall plugs and No.8 screws at
least 30mm long. Do not tighten the screws at this stage, wait until all your wiring is in
place.
Wiring Considerations
With the exception of the mains wiring all interconnections should be made with
multicore 7/.02 alarm cable.
Good wiring practice should be observed throughout the installation and the following
tips may prove useful.
Never run alarm cables parallel to mains cables, telephone cables or any
other cables that may be carrying inductive loads
Whenever you have to cross mains cables with alarm cables ensure that you
do so at 90°
Whenever possible wire the mains connection for the control panel back to
the consumer unit via a 3A fused spur with disconnection facility.
Never tap into ring main circuits that have fridges/freezers on them.
Never tap into lighting circuits that have fluorescent lighting units on them.

Mains Wiring - WARNING: Electricity can KILL
Before connecting the control panel ALWAYS disconnect the supply at the consumer
unit. A 230V a.c supply should be taken directly from the consumer unit. In order to
comply with the relevant current wiring regulations this should be via a 3 Amp fused
spur with disconnection facility. This must be carried out by a suitably qualified electrician. If you are in any doubt please contact your local electricity company for advice.
This control panel MUST be Earthed.

Where Anti-Mask detectors are used, one of the following wiring
modes may be used.
ELF1 wiring is used for detectors that have a
relay output (a pair of terminals) for Fault or
Mask.
The installer should check what output type
the detectors are, noting that all the dectectors
should be of the same type with regards to the
Fault / Mask output.

from the control panel.
Note: For information on how to wire for the various wiring modes please refer
to the wiring section within this manual.
If selecting 9 (EOL) follow steps 24 through to 26. If selecting 8+8 (EOL) jump to step
28.

Page 22
GT490X Engineer’s Reference Guide
Three wiring options are available under 9 (EOL):
Norm: Standard GardTec wiring configuration without Mask or Fault detection.
Note: Does not give any Fault or Masking detection and should only be used with Zone pairing.
ELF1:ELF1 wiring is used for detectors that have a relay output (a pair of terminals)
for Fault or Mask..
ELF2:ELF2 wiring is used for detectors that have a transistor output (a single
terminal) for Fault or Mask.
Note: We would recommend that either ELF1 Format or ELF2 Format (dependant on detector output type,
Relay or Transistor) is used. ELF1 or ELF2 wiring modes will allow for Alarm, Tamper, Fault and Masking to be
monitored from a single zone without the need for zone pairing.
Note: The installer should check what output type the detector are, noting that all the detectors should be of the
same type with regards to the Fault / Mask output.

Zone Pairing.
A zone is used to monitor Masking and Fault.
This is achieved by selecting Zone Pairing as on. Zone Pairing cannot be used in ELF1 or ELF2
wiring modes.
When using Zone Pairing each zone will have a corresponding paired zone that will be used for
Masking and Fault signals. This is done by using the Odd numbered zones for the normal alarm
detection and the Even numbered zones for Masking and Fault Detection. For example.

Programming Alarm Confirm
This section is used to program options that are relevant to BS8243. Before
programming these options please take time to read the following notes that will help in
your understanding of BS8243
All communications systems that require a Police URN will need to conform to
BS8243.
These notes intended as a guide only and should be read in conjunction with the
relevant standards relating to the alarm system giving particular attention to
EN50131-1and BS8243. These may be obtained from the British Standards Institute.
BS8243 options available are.
Confirm Time Window (default = 60)
This time window may be programmed between 1 and 120 minutes. To comply the
required time should be between 30 and 60 minutes.
Confirm on Entry (default = On)
This option may be programmed to On or Off. If Confirm on Entry = Off then confirmed
alarms to central station are disabled if the entry timer is started. If ACE or G-Tag is
used then it is permissible to set this option to On.
Sounder Mode (default = Unconfirmed)
This option controls the system speakers fitted, options are confirmed or un-confirmed.
If Sounder Trigger = Confirmed then internal sounder will only trigger with a confirmed
alarm.
If Sounder Trigger = Unconfirmed then internal sounders will trigger with un-confirmed
alarms.
This feature is not mandatory for BS8243
Reset Mode (default = Any)
Choose from Any or Normal.
If Unconfirm = Any then any code can be used to reset an un-confirmed alarm.
If Unconfirm = Normal then the programmed reset mode for alarm will still be required
i.e. if alarm reset has been programmed as engineer and Unconfirm reset is Normal
then an engineer reset will be required for Un-confirmed alarms.
Confirm Secondary Time Window (default = 60 minutes)
This time window may be programmed between 1 and 120 minutes we would suggest
a time between 30 and 60 minutes but should typically be the same time as the
confirm time window. This option affects zones that have been allocated as secondary
zones only. For functionality please refer to Secondary Zones Below.
Page 80
GT490X Engineer’s Reference Guide
ET (Exit Terminator) Mode (default = Set)
If ET Mode = Set then the exit terminator zone will terminate the exit procedure.
If ET Mode = Door Lock and the ET zone (door lock) is operated on entry then all
confirmed alarms will be disabled.
Bell Mode (default = Unconfirmed)
This option controls the bells fitted to the system, options are confirmed or unconfirmed.
If Bell Trigger = Confirmed then Bell will only trigger with a confirmed alarm.
If Bell Trigger = Unconfirmed then Bell will trigger with un-confirmed alarms.
This feature is not mandatory for BS8243
Strobe Mode (default = Unconfirmed)
This option controls the Strobe(s) fitted to the system, options are confirmed or unconfirmed.
If Strobe Trigger = Confirmed then Strobe will only trigger with a confirmed alarm.
If Strobe Trigger = Unconfirmed then Strobe will trigger with un-confirmed alarms.
This gives the ability to show to the keyholder from outside the premises that a
previously unconfirmed alarm has is now confirmed.
This feature is not mandatory for BS8243
Confirmed Start Delay (default = 000m)
May be programmed between 0 & 120 minutes (default 0).
If programmed to anything other than 0 the panel cannot send confirmed signals until
the time programmed has expired. This time starts when the system has set and will
prevent confirmed alarms being generated in situations when a person has been
accidentally locked in the building.
This feature is not mandatory for BS8243
Ace Low Battery (default = On)
Options are On or Off. This option allows for the use of new control panel boards with
V5.1 or later software to be used with earlier keypads. If older non BS8243 compliant
type keypads are used with V5.1 or later this option should programmed to Off. It is a
requirement of BS8243 that when using ACE Low Battery is reported to the end user if
the system is set using ACE.
See BS8243 Portable ACE used for setting and unsetting.
Page 81
GT490X Engineer’s Reference Guide
Secondary Zones
The Program Part / Test /Chime option has now been renamed to Program Zone
Attributes. Within this section you are able to allocate zones as Secondary Zones.
Secondary type zones would be used for detectors that may be deemed as having an
over sensitive nature, this will stop unwanted user call-outs. Zones that are entered as
Secondary will follow the chain of events below.
During a set period triggering a Secondary Zone will start the Secondary Time
Window. This will be logged but no further action is taken. If the second zone to alarm
during the same set period is also a Secondary Zone then it will be logged and the
Secondary Time Window will be restarted.
If the time set within the Secondary Time Window is still running and a zone that is not
allocated as a Secondary Zone is triggered the event will be logged an Alarm A (unconfirmed) and Alarm B (confirmed) will be transmitted.
This feature is not mandatory for BS8243.
Comms Restore
With Comms Restore turned on any outstanding alarm channels will be restored at the
end of the Confirm Time Window.
This feature is mandatory for BS8243
Perimeter Zones
Within the Program Zone Attribute section you are able to allocate zones as Perimeter.
Zones that are entered as Perimeter will follow the chain of events below.
When activated an unconfirmed alarm will be transmitted to the central station. An
output or digi channel may be programmed as perimeter (or if using Point ID a new
signal type of perimeter will be sent). This will allow central station to inform the
keyholder that an unconfirmed alarm has been received and is a perimeter type device
i.e window backdoor etc. etc. This feature is not mandatory for BS8243.
Scenarios Relating to BS8243.
Sounder / Bell Considerations
Please note careful consideration should be given when programming Confirm
Sounder and Confirm Bell Modes. If both are programmed for confirmed and any of the
above scenarios occur no local sounders will activate.
Page 82
GT490X Engineer’s Reference Guide
Other BS8243 Notes to Consider
When a system auto re-arms with a zone in fault condition The GardTec control panel
will omit the zone concerned. A signal should be sent to the central station indicating
that a detector(s) has (have) been isolated. To achieve this a Digi channel should be
programmed as Zone Exclude, this will automatically send the required signal as the
detector is omitted.
Output Option (Status)
This option has three operating modes and is intended to provide a visual indication of
the system status.
System SetOutput On for 10 seconds
System UnsetOutput On for 1s Output Off for 1s for a 10 second period
Confirmed Alarm Output On for 3 seconds Output Off for 1s until system reset.
It is envisaged that this status output would be fitted to an indicator (i.e. LED) that can
be seen from outside the premises.
