Installation

Before You Begin

Be sure the actual work is performed by experienced personnel, licensed to carry out
security system installations and capable of implementing all applicable requirements
of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA-70 and NFPA-74), as well as any
federal, state, and local codes – along with any safety guidelines and regulations
which might apply.

Mounting the Control Panel

1. Mount the ORBIT-14’s metal cabinet at a protected dry location, near a source of
unswitched AC Power, a good ground, and access to telephone service. Use the
proper hardware (e.g., anchors, toggle bolts), as required, to insure a suitable
mounting.

2. Thread all electrical wiring through a convenient hole in the metal cabinet. To
prevent potential damage, be sure that live AC power is NOT present and that the
Standby Battery is NOT connected. (Refer to page 8). Your wiring may include
any and all of the following:

• Connections to Hardwired Zones

• Connections to devices requiring Uninterrupted Auxiliary Power (e.g., PIRs,

Glass Break Detectors)

• Connections to Smoke Detectors requiring Reset table Power

• Connections to any External Sounders

3. Have a Standby Battery ready (typically 12 VDC, 7 AH), but do not connect it at
this time.

4. If using a Key-switch, use a momentary key-switch. The receiver (if used) must
give a pulse output and not on/off.

Safety Warnings

• When the panel is powered, mains voltage is present on the main PCB. To

prevent risk of electric shock, disconnect all power (AC transformer and battery)
and phone cord before servicing. On no account should mains power be
connected to the PCB other than the main terminal block.

• For AC mains connection, a readily accessible disconnect device shall be

incorporated in the building installation wiring.

• For continued protection against risk of fire, replace fuses only with fuses of

the same type and rating

• There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect battery type.

Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. (The control panel is
designed to work with a 12 volt, 7 Amp-hour sealed lead battery as a back up for
the primary power supply.)

Installation Manual

7

• Do not short the terminals of the transformer together. This causes the internal

fuse to blow. The transformer must be connected to a 230 VAC 24-hour outlet,
which must be controlled by an approved over-current protection device.

• The control is designed with reverse polarity protection on the battery charging

circuit; however, prolonged improper connection of the battery to the control
panel results in damage. Power should remain disconnected until all connections
have been made and checked for accuracy.

Wiring the Main Panel

Connecting to Ground (Earth)

Connect the metal box and the door of the metal box to mains earth (ground), as
shown in the diagrams below. Refer also to What Makes a Good Ground, page 9.

IMPORTANT:

Connecting to ground must be performed according to the applicable local or national electrical
codes.

8

Installation Manual

Grounding the Metal Box

What Makes a Good Ground?

Grounding provides a degree of protection against lightning and induced transients
for any piece of electronic equipment that may, due to lightning or static discharge,
experience permanent or general malfunctions. The ideal ground is considered to be
a unified earth ground in which an 8-foot copper-clad rod, located close to the existing
power and telephone ground rods, is sunk several feet into the earth. Appropriate
hardware and clamps are then used to electrically connect each of these rods
together and then to the ground terminal of the device to be protected.

Installation Manual

9

It may be possible to use an existing electrical ground on the premises if one is close
enough to the Main Panel. Ideally, that ground can be obtained at the metal service
panel where the incoming electrical power originates. When connecting the ground
wire, use a solid 14-gauge wire [or larger (numerically lower) size] connected
between the ORBIT-14’s GND terminal and an acceptable electrical ground
connection. Keep this wire as short as possible and do not run it in conduit, coil it,
bend it sharply, or run it alongside other wiring. If you must bend it or change its
direction, it should have a radius of at least 8 inches at the point from which it is bent.
If in doubt, you may want to enlist the help of a licensed electrician.

Telephone Line Connection

These lines are typically derived from an installed RJ31X jack.
To connect telephone lines:

1. Connect the incoming telephone line to the Main Panel's LINE terminals.

2. Connect any telephone on the premises to the SET terminals.

Connecting AC Power

Connect the 230V AC to the mains fuse input terminal block (via 16.5VAC 40VA
transformer) and fasten the AC cord to the metal box using adjustable clamps.

NOTES:

DO NOT apply main power at this time.
Be sure to connect the live wire of the AC power through the AC fuse.
Do not plug in the transformer at this time.

Zone Connections

Connect each zone to the appropriate zone terminal and its related COM terminal.
Each pair of zones shares a COM terminal.

The following diagram illustrates the various possible zone connections:

10

Installation Manual

NOTES:

For zones defined as EOL, use 2.21 KΩ resistors (supplied).
By default all zones are defined as EOL termination.

The Double End Of Line (DOEL) configuration allows a detector tamper switch, if
violated, to register a tamper condition at the panel without the need for a separate
connection to a designated tamper zone.

Only zones 1-6 can be defined as DEOL. Zones 9-14 are not valid in this
configuration.

Double Zone Wiring

Zone doubling is used to connect two separate zones on one input. Use the following
diagram for appropriate connection. The tamper alarm will be the same for both of the
zones.

NOTES:

The location of the resistors is crucial. Any change in the resistors' location will adversely affect
the correct zone identification. Zones 1-6 must be applied with the 3.32KΩ resistor. Zones 9-14
must be applied with the 2.21 KΩ and 5.62 KΩ resistors.

Zones 7 and 8 cannot be defined as double zone termination.

Installation Manual

11

Wiring Auxiliary Devices

Use the Auxiliary Power AUX (+) COM (-) terminals to power PIRs, glass-break
detectors (4-wire types), smoke detectors, audio switches, photoelectric systems
and/or any device that requires a 12V DC power supply.

NOTES:

The total power from the AUX terminals should not exceed 600mA.

To connect a 4-wire smoke detector or devices that require resetting after an alarm condition,
connect the Auxiliary power AUX and UO terminals (refer to page 8 for smoke detector wiring).
Remember to define the UO as Switched Auxiliary (refer to page 31).

In addition, when connecting a 4-wire smoke detector observe the wiring guidelines of the local
requirements applicable to smoke detectors.

To prevent a possible drop in voltage due to current requirements and distances involved,
make sure to use the appropriate wire gauge.

If the auxiliary outputs are overloaded (exceed 600mA) and are shut down, you must
disconnect all loads from the outputs for a period of at least 10 seconds before you reconnect
any load to the auxiliary outputs.

Bell Tamper

The bell tamper is a tamper input that is terminated by an EOL resistor (2.21 KΩ). If
the line is cut or shorted, the alarm is turned on.

Connect the bell tamper to the BELL TMP and COM terminals on the main panel.

Box Tamper

The box tamper is a tamper input (NC - normally closed) for the metal box, which
protects both sides of the box. This means that if the box is opened or removed from
the wall, the tamper opens and turns on the alarm.

Connect the box tamper to the BOX TMP and COM terminals on the main panel.

NOTE:

For Bell and Box tamper supervision, connect the tamper switches before applying the main
power to the system.

12

Installation Manual

Utility Output Connections

The ORBIT-14 main panel includes three Utility Outputs on board: 1 relay 3Amps, 1
500mA transistor and 1 open collector 70 mA transistor which can be used for
switching an external device on or off or reset a “latched” smoke detector(s). Once
the Utility Output (UO) is activated the device will be connected between AUX (+12V)
and ground (0V).

Wiring the external Utility Outputs:

UO1: Refer to the J4 connector instructions, described below.

UO2-UO6: Connect the positive connection of the device to AUX (+) and the negative
connection to the UO's (-) terminals.

NOTES:

When activated the Utility Output is switched to the Negative Polarity.

When the UO is used to reset a “latched” smoke detector(s), the 12V power to the smoke
detector is supplied via the UO (see page 8). The UO should be defined as AUX switch (see
page 31).

Connecting the Utility Output Expansion Module

If more than three UOs are required, a Utility Output Expansion module is available.
The UOs on the expansion module comprise four relays; three relays that allow
maximum current of 500 MA each, and one relay that allows maximum current of 3A.

When the Utility Output Expansion Module is employed, UO3 on the Main Board (the
UO3/ECL terminal) is no longer available. UO1 on the Utility Output expansion
module becomes UO3 in the system.

To connect the Utility Output expansion module, connect the terminals as follows:

Connecting the J4 Connector

The J4 connector (jumper) determines the UO1 connection (behaviour), which is
normally used for an external siren connection, as follows:

• Positive (POS): When the J4

connector is placed on POS, the
C terminal on UO1 receives

13.8V.

• Negative (NEG): When the J4

connector is placed on NEG, the
C terminal on UO1 receives
COM.

• Single pin: If the J4 connector is

placed only on 1 pin, the UO1
acts as a dry contact.

14

Installation Manual

Keypad Connection

The ORBIT-14 can support up to five keypads. Each keypad consists of five wires
and three terminal blocks (for the connection of zones 7 and 8).

NOTE:

The three terminal blocks are not applicable in a 6-LED keypad.

1. Connect four wires (Red, Black, Yellow, Green) from the keypad to the

appropriate terminals on the main panel, according to the wire colours.

2. Each keypad has an additional white wire for the connection of a panic button. To

connect the panic button, use the white wire as (+) and the black wire as (-).

NOTE:

The maximum distance between the panic button and the keypad is 30 meters.

3. Connecting zones 7 and 8: Zones 7 and 8, which are located on the keypads

(except for the 6-LED keypad), are end-of-line supervised. If more than one
keypad is connected to the system and zones 7 or 8 are used, the same zones in
the other keypads must be shorted. Each zone can be used only once, in one of
the keypads.

NOTE:

The short of a parallel zone must be done before powering the system.

Connecting the J3 SIG IN Connector (Signal in Voice
Mail)

The J3 SIG IN voice connector enables the transfer of audio data between the Voice
module and the phone line. For further instruction on the voice module, refer to the
“Voice Module” documentation supplied with the product.

Installer Programming

The Keypad

The ORBIT-14 can support up to five keypads, with a choice of four styles (LCD, 6­LED, 8-LED and 14-LED types), from which virtually all features may be accessed. In
addition to the functions it provides for the user, each of the keypads can be used by
an installer to program the system parameters.

An attempt to enter an incorrect series of keystrokes will result in three error beeps.

All program location values (data) are displayed by zone indicators on the keypad’s
LEDs.

Restoring Factory Defaults to the ORBIT-14

1. Your ORBIT-14 and at least one LED Keypad should already be wired together
and/or physically installed.

2. Remove all power from the Printed Circuit.

3. Place the ORBIT-14’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper over both corresponding pins.
(Refer to page 8).

4. Reapply power (AC and/or Standby Battery) to the PC Board.

5. After a short beep is heard, remove the J1 jumper. The ORBIT-14’s default
settings are now restored.

6. Check that the POWER LED is flashing. Depending on the state of the system,
the READY LED and the Zone LEDs may or may not be lit.

Introduction to Programming

First, check that the panel’s J1 (DEFAULT) jumper is NOT covering both pins on the
PC Board.

The ORBIT-14 stores information in 168 programming locations. The data stored in
any location is represented by numbers and/or letters. Some locations require just
one digit, while most require two. Others may require several more digits (e.g. those
used to store phone numbers and account numbers).

It is not necessary to enter data into all categories. Many locations have been factory­programmed with default parameters.

NOTE:

Power can be removed from the ORBIT-14, as its memory does not require a source of power
to retain its information.

Viewing the Contents of a Location

It is often necessary to check the data stored in a memory
location to ensure that it is correct. If improper data is found, it
must be corrected in order to obtain the desired system response.
The data in a location can either be a number (from 0-9) or a
letter (from A-F), taking advantage of the hexadecimal numbering
system. For our purposes, the characters A through F will be
referred to as hexadecimal digits.

Whenever the Installer Programming mode is active, the first four
Zone LEDs on the keypad (1-4) are used to reveal each digit in a
selected location. By adding up the values assigned to the lit
LEDs, the contents of any

Locations Whose Contents Occupy More Than One Digit

When a location contains more than one digit, they cannot be viewed simultaneously.
As soon as a location is accessed, the first digit is displayed automatically. Additional
digits (if they exist) can be displayed by pressing the following keys on the LED
keypads.:

Used to display the next digit in a location containing at least two
digits. For example, if 5-6-7-8 is stored in a location, the “5” is
displayed first; when you press , the “6” will be displayed.
Continue this process to display the entire contents of the chosen
location. Error beeps will be emitted if you attempt to display non­existent digits.

Used to move backwards among the digits stored in a location
containing at least two digits. Error beeps will be emitted if you
attempt to display non-existent digits.

Audible Tones and Error Beeps

To confirm an operation, a single, long beep will be heard. However, any improper
use of the keypad resulting in an error or an unacceptable response will produce
three rapid beeps. If heard, repeat the operation or exit the programming mode and

detection systems. A violation of such a zone will always cause an instant intrusion
alarm, regardless of the system’s armed/disarmed state.

Installation Manual

Locations: 017-030 Zone 1-14: (1st Digit): Zone Type

Day Zone

Usually assigned to an infrequently used door, such as an emergency door or a
movable skylight. Used to alert the system user if a violation occurs during the
disarmed period (trouble by day; burglary at night), as follows:

• With the system armed (either AWAY or Group), the zone acts as an instant zone.

2

A violation of this zone after the system is armed or during the Exit Delay time period
causes an immediate intrusion alarm.

• With the system disarmed, a violation of this zone attempts to alert the user by
causing the POWER LEDs on all keypads to flash rapidly. This directs the user to
view the system's TROUBLE indications.

Instant (Intrusion)

Usually intended for non-exit/entry doors, window protection, shock detection, and

3

motion detectors. Causes an immediate intrusion alarm if violated when the system is
armed or during the Exit Delay time period (Only in IMQ definition).

Exit /Entry Delay

4

If violated, a zone with this designation will not cause an intrusion alarm during the
Entry and Exit Delay periods.

Exit (OPEN)/Entry

Such a zone behaves as described above in Entry/Exit Delay, except that if faulted at
the time the system is armed, it will be bypassed and NOT prevents system arming.

5

To avoid an intrusion alarm, however, the zone must be secured before the expiration
of the Exit Delay period (Location 11).

Entry Follower

Usually assigned to motion detectors and to interior doors protecting the area
between the entry door and the keypad.

6

This zone will cause an immediate intrusion alarm when violated unless an Entry/Exit
zone was violated first. In such a case, an Entry Follower zone(s) will remain
bypassed until the end of the Entry Delay period.

Fire Zone

Intended for smoke or other types of fire detectors. If violated, will cause an immediate

7

fire alarm. A short in the zone wiring will cause a fire alarm. A fault in the wiring to the
zone will cause a Fire Trouble (fire LED blinks). A fire zone cannot be disabled or
bypassed.

Panic Zone

8

Used for external panic buttons and wireless panic transmitters. If violated an
immediate panic alarm will be announced.

Pulsed Key-switch Zone - Instant

If desired an external SPST spring - loaded, normally open, momentary type key

9

switch can be added for system arming and disarming. The key switch permits an
instant arm and disarming of the system after tripping.

Pulsed Key-switch Zone - Delayed

A

This zone behaves similar to the Pulsed Key-switch Zone - Instant, described
above, except that an exit delay will follow the arming of the system.

Latch-Key-switch Zone – Instant: If desired for system arming/disarming, connect

B

an external SPST latching type (non-momentary) key-switch to any zone terminals,
given this designation.

Utility Outputs: Locations 046-051

The ORBIT-14 main panel includes three Utility Outputs (1 3Amps relay, 1 500 mA
transistor and 1 open collector 70 mA transistor). These outputs help operate external
devices in response to a number of system activities related to alarms, zones, any
general system event or the actions of a particular user. A total of six Utility Outputs
are available when the utility module expansion module is connected. You can
choose the event that will trigger a selected Utility Output (UO), as well as the manner
in which the output will be applied.

NOTE:

In order to use the Utility Output Expansion you need to define the module in location 059

Installation Manual

Digit Event and Result

AUX POWER Switch (Fire)

Until triggered, UO is normally activated and is designed to be a part of the circuit
supplying power to the smoke detector(s); see page 8.

After a Fire Alarm is disarmed, it may be necessary to reset any smoke detector(s),
which may be “latched” in alarm. A “latched” smoke detector will cause the

2A

keyboard’s Fire LED to remain lit, even though the panel may be disarmed. To reset
a Smoke Detector, a “UO” used in this manner must be momentarily deactivated.
This action is performed by the user, who must enter [*]+[2]+[User Code]+[X],
where [X] refers to the UO number in the circuit providing Smoke Detector power. If
this is not done, it will be impossible to arm the panel. Please advise your customer
of this contingency, as stated in the ORBIT-14’s User's Manual.

Answering Machine
Override

Yes: The Answering Machine

Override is enabled, as
follows:

The Upload/Download
software at the alarm company
calls the account. The software
hangs up after one ring by the
U/D operator.

Within one minute, the
software calls again. The
ORBIT-14 is programmed to
pick up this second call on the
first ring, thus bypassing any
interaction with the answering
machine.

NOTE:

This feature is used to prevent
interference from an answering
machine with remote
Upload/Download operations.

No: The Answering Machine
Override is disabled, and
communication takes place in
the standard manner.

Follow Me Enable

Yes: Enables Follow Me

communication.

In addition to reporting to the
Central Station, the ORBIT-14
has a Follow-Me feature, in
which a standard phone call is
made to a designated phone
number, reporting a system
event. The Follow Me can
convey a series of tones
representing an alarm; it can
send numeric or alphanumeric
data to a page to display a
specific event; or it can send
pre-recorded voice messages
using the voice module.

No: Disables Follow Me
communication.

NOTE:

If both MS phones and FM
phones are defined, the system
will first call the MS phones and
then the FM phones.

Rokonet Limited Warranty

Rokonet Electronics, Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates ("Seller") warrants its
products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use
for 12 months from the date of production. Because Seller does not install or
connect the product and because the product may be used in conjunction with
products not manufactured by the Seller, Seller cannot guarantee the
performance of the security system which uses this product. Seller's obligation
and liability under this warranty is expressly limited to repairing and replacing, at
Seller's option, within a reasonable time after the date of delivery, any product not
meeting the specifications. Seller makes no other warranty, expressed or implied,
and makes no warranty of merchantability or of fitness for any particular purpose.

In no case shall seller be liable for any consequential or incidental damages for
breach of this or any other warranty, expressed or implied, or upon any other
basis of liability whatsoever.

Seller's obligation under this warranty shall not include any transportation charges
or costs of installation or any liability for direct, indirect, or consequential damages
or delay.

Seller does not represent that its product may not be compromised or
circumvented; that the product will prevent any persona; injury or property loss by
burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; or that the product will in all cases provide
adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a properly installed and
maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of burglary, robbery or fire without
warning, but is not insurance or a guaranty that such will not occur or that there
will be no personal injury or property loss as a result.

Consequently seller shall have no liability for any personal injury, property
damage or loss based on a claim that the product fails to give warning. However,
if seller is held liable, whether directly or indirectly, for any loss or damage arising
from under this limited warranty or otherwise, regardless of cause or origin,
sellers maximum liability shall not exceed the purchase price of the product,
which shall be complete and exclusive remedy against seller.

No employee or representative of Seller is authorized to change this warranty in
any way or grant any other warranty.

WARNING: This product should be tested at least once a week.
