The CA-64 PP expander (referred to as the subpanel) is a device designed to
interface with the CA-64 alarm control panel. It makes possible extension of the alarm
system by eight zones and eight outputs (4 relay outputs and 4 OC type outputs).
Features of the zones and functional characteristics of the outputs are identical as
those of the main board of the alarm control panel.
NO and NC type detectors can be connected to the expander inputs. The zones can
be configured to work with a single parameter (EOL resistor) and with a double parameter (2EOL -
the circuit closed with a 2.2kΩ
the circuit closed with two 1.1kΩ
resistors). Each of the zones can be individually programmed and assigned one of
a few dozen types of response to violation. Furthermore, every zone can be
individually programmed with possible selection of one of a few dozen types of output
signals.
The module is fitted with a built-in impulse power supply unit of 2.2A capacity. It also
has a short-circuit protection of the supply output as well as battery charging and
testing circuits with disconnection of discharged battery.

- module supply 17...24V AC
The ACterminals serve to connect the secondary winding wires of the mains
transformer. The alternating supply voltage
can be 17...24V high. The minimum value
of input voltage with the transformer loaded to themaximum by the module is 16V
(AC).
The set of switches situated on the board is intended for setting up the individual
expander address.
Ten light-emitting diodes (LED) are provided on the board:
OUT1- Eight LEDs situated close to the relays indicate the status of individual
-OUT8 expander outputs.
D9 The LED situated next to the addressing switches indicates the process of
communication between the control panel and the expander. During normal
work of the module the LED blinks with changing frequency.
D10The LED situated close to the pins designated as J28 is on when the module
is testing the battery status as well as when discharged battery is being
charged.
During testing, the processor reduces the power supply voltage, and the
consumers are supplied from the battery. The testing takes place every
4 minutes and lasts less than 20 seconds.
The J28pins are used to set up the battery charging current:
350mA - pins shorted,
700mA - pins open.
Two leads (red and black) are used to connect the battery.
The RESET pins are used in production process and should not be shorted.
The TMP input is intended for connecting the expander housing anti-tampering
contact, and, if not used, it should be shorted to ground.
The ACterminals are used to connect the secondary winding wires of the mains
transformer. The alternating supply voltage can have a value of 17...24V.
Also other electric energy consumers (e.g. detectors, modules with no power supply,
alarms) may be connected to the expander power supply unit. However, be careful not
to cause an overload. It is advisable to prepare the power supply load balance. The
total of current inputs for all consumers and battery charging current is not to exceed
the capacity of power supply unit.

OUTPUT TYPES
(
The expander has two types of outputs. The outputs 1-4 are relay outputs while those
numbered 5-8 are OC type outputs.
RELAY OUTPUT
The output controls the status of the relay situated on the expander board. With this
type of output the Cn, NCn and NOn terminals are galvanically isolated from electrical
circuits of the expander. When the output status LED is on, the Cn terminal is shorted
to the NCn terminal, whereas the NOn terminal is isolated. Consequently, when the
LED is off, the Cn terminal is shorted to the NOn terminal, and the NCn terminal is
isolated.
The output structure is shown in the diagram below. Position of the contacts of the
relay presented in the figure refers to the condition
when the LED is off.

OCTYPE OUTPUT (collector open)
The output intended for connecting the voltage controlled equipment (e.g.: radio
messaging, signaling devices with own power supply). Direct connection to a load
output (e.g. a relay) is possible provided such a load will not enforce a current flow in
excess of 50mA through the output transistor. When the LED indicating the output
status is on, the Cn output terminal is shorted to ground, and when the LED is off, the
Cn terminal is isolated. The output structure and the ways of connecting a load
are presented in the diagram

INSTALLATION
The CA-64 PP (zones and outputs) expander with power supply may be installed in
a CA-64 OBU-EXB housing (with 50W transformer and place for 17Ah battery), which
makes it possible to install any expander with power supply as well as an additional
zones expander without power supply. Begin installation of the housing with
placement of distance pins inside.
EXPANDER CONNECTION AND POWER SUPPLY ACTIVATION
The expander power supply unit should work being permanently connected to 230V
AC mains supply. Therefore, before you commence on the cabling work, make
yourself familiar with the electrical system of the site. Choose a circuit that is always
live to power the module. The circuit should be protected with a suitable fuse.
CAUTION ! Before connecting the power supply unit to the circuit, from which it is to be
supplied, switch off voltage in that circuit.
Prior to the commencement of connecting the module to the existing alarm system,
turn off power supply of the whole system.
The first-time expander activation is preferably to be done without battery connected.
The expander power supply is provided with safeguards, which make it possible to
avoid damages to alarm system components resulting from installation faults.
1. Secure the expander board on the distance pins installed in the housing.
2. Connect the bus leads (the first bus: CK1, DT1, COM; the second bus: CK2, DT2,
COM - as designated on the control panel main board) to the terminals CLK, DAT
and COM. Up to 32 modules of various types can be connected to one bus. There
can be 6 outputs expanders installed in the system (the total - and maximum number of outputs is 64) and 6 zones expanders, unless the LCD keypad zones
are used the total - and maximum - number of zones is 64). For details concerning
the cable connections, see the CA-64 alarm control panel manual ”System Description and Installation”.
3. Using the switches set up the expander address.
The address is to be set up by means of the switches 1 to 5. Status of the other
switches (6, 7, 8) is irrelevant. To determine the expander address, summarize the
numbers corresponding to the switches set in position ON, according to the table:
Five switches allow addresses to be assigned to 32 expanders (Numbers from 0
to 31).
Addresses of expanders connected to one bus may not be repeated, while the
sequence of addressing is optional.
4. Connect the leads of the controlled equipment.
5. Connect the leads of the housing anti-tampering contact to the TMP. Where two
expanders are installed in the housing, the TMP input of one of them is to be
shorted to ground, and the contact leads are to be connected to the TMP input of
the other expander.
6. Connect the consumers power supply leads to terminals +12V and COM on
expander board.
7. Connect the 230V alternating voltage leads to the transformer terminals marked
"AC 230V".
8. Connect the output voltage wires of the transformer winding to the "AC" terminals
on the control panel main board. Do not connect two expanders with power supply
to one transformer.
9. Connect the wire of the electric shock protection circuit to the terminal block
provided next to the transformer and marked with the ground symbol .
CAUTION! As the expander module has no switch enabling disconnection of the
mains supply, it is important that you inform the owner or user of the
equipment, how to disconnect it from the mains (e.g. by showing him the
fuse which protects the expander supply circuit).
10. Using the J28 jumper, set up the battery charging current (350mA or 700mA).
11. Switch on the expander 230VAC power supply. Measure the voltage on battery
cables, making sure it has the correct value of approx. 13.7V, and check that all
consumers are properly powered.
12. Switch off the module power supply and connect the battery. The module will not
become active on connecting the battery alone. The processor enables the
module power supply to be switched over to battery operation after about 12
seconds of steady-state voltage at the AC terminals (as from 230V AC mains
switching-on).
NOTE: If the battery voltage drops below 11V, the module will signal battery
malfunction to the control panel, and when the voltage drops to abt. 9.5V,
the battery will be disconnected.
When all the connections are completed and checked for correctness, you can
proceed to activating the expander zones and outputs.

MODULE ACTIVATION
NOTE:In systems having expansion modules with their own power supply, it is
recommended to start the panel first, and then the other components of the
system.
1. Switch on power supply of the alarm system and the expander
on and flash with steady light).
2. Call the function “Expander identification” (ÁService mode; ÁStructure;
ÁHardware) from the keypad. The D10 LED control should start blinking. After
completion of the identification, all the new zones and outputs are programmed to
the factory defaults, the detector type being set to zero (no detector) and the output
type also set to zero (not used).
3. Using the DLOAD64 program, set the zones and outputs parameters.
4. End the service mode operation, saving data in the FLASH memory.
NOTE: In the process of identification, the control panel is saving in the modules
memory a special (16-bit) number, which serves to check the modules
presence in the system. Replacement of the expander with another (even
one having the same address set up on the switches) without a new
identification will trigger an alarm (module tamper - verification error).
(the D10 LED will go
NUMERATION OF ZONES AND OUTPUTS
The identification function automatically sets up numeration of zones and outputs in
the system. The numbers 1-16 belong to the main board zones and outputs. Further
numbers are assigned to the first bus expanders (from the lowest to the highest
expander address), and then to the second bus expanders. Separate numeration is
set for zones and outputs, besides, numbers 49-64 may be assigned to LCD keypads.
This should be borne in mind when installing new expanders in the system. If the
subpanel address is lower than the address of an expander previously installed in the
system, or where a subpanel is added to the first bus, and there is already another
expander connected to the second bus, the identification function - according to the
principle described above - will shift the numeration of zones or outputs between the
expanders. The subpanel will take over the zone / output numbers of the previously
installed expander, which, in turn, will be given the numbers of new zones /outputs
added to the system. If this is the case, the previously assigned expander zones
/outputs can be restored by means of the DLOAD64 program. To do so, call the
function ”Advanced settings” (ÁStructure; ÁHardware).
