  • Page 11: Product Overview

    Product overview Alliance is a scalable access control platform integrated with a intrusion alarm package. The Alliance control panels use a modular RS-485 data bus to provide continuous polling of remote arming stations (RAS) and data control panels (DGP). These devices extend the system’s security and access control functions. AL-4017.
  • Page 12: Installation

    Alliance AL-4017/AL-4617 Control Panel Installation Manual Installation To install the control panel, do the following: 1. Mount the enclosure. A suitable location should include easy access for wiring, good lighting, suitable access to power and earth ground, and ample space to work. The mounting surface should be flat and dry.
  • Page 13 2. Install the standoffs. Before the board can be installed, you must configure the appropriate standoffs. Use male/female standoffs where threaded holes are aligned with the mounting holes on the board and use clip-in standoffs where square holes are aligned with the mounting holes (Figure 2) Figure 2.
  • Page 14 Alliance AL-4017/AL-4617 Control Panel Installation Manual 6. Slide the board’s terminal blocks together as shown in Figure 3 and mount them to the board. Figure 3. Terminal block assembly 7. Use four 6/32 x 1/4 in. screws with internal star washers to mount the board (Figure 4) in the enclosure (Figure 2 on page 3).

    LEDs Figure 4 on page 4 shows the following LEDs located on the board: L1. Flashes slowly when the panel is operating (the microprocessor is running). RX (Comms). Yellow LED flashes when remote units (RAS and DGP devices) are replying to polling. TX (Comms).
  • Page 16: Wiring

    Alliance AL-4017/AL-4617 Control Panel Installation Manual Wiring Keep all panel wiring well away from other wiring. Avoid parallel wire runs with other wires. Where parallel wire are unavoidable, keep wires a minimum of 2 in. (5 cm) apart or in EMT. We recommend that you wire Alliance system components that use direct wire transformers into a dedicated circuit breaker and you plug those that use plug-in transformers into an unswitched outlet.
  • Page 17: System Bus Connections

    System bus connections Connect DGP devices to the system bus to provide extra zones and remote arming stations (RAS) to the control panel. Remote devices can be up to 5,000 ft. (1.5 km) from an Alliance system control panel. DGP and RAS devices must be connected via a twisted-pair, shielded data cable from the system bus connection.

    Alliance AL-4017/AL-4617 Control Panel Installation Manual Auxiliary power supply connections In systems where expansion module power is not supplied by the main control panel or an AC-powered DGP with auxiliary outputs, you must use a UL listed power supply suitable for burglar alarm applications, such as the Altonix-AL300ULX.
  • Page 19: Nonpower/Power-Limited Wiring

    Nonpower/power-limited wiring Keep nonpower-limited wiring away (1/4 in. minimum) from power-limited wiring (Figure 8). Disconnect the AC power via a dedicated circuit breaker before servicing.
