Communications

Each of the i-on range of control units provide sockets for a single plug-on communication
module. For the i-on40 and i-onEX range the available modules are:
i-dig02 A PSTN module that allows the control unit to report alarm information using standard
protocols such as Fast Format, SIA and Contact ID. This module also allows remote
maintenance over the PSTN and sending SMS messages.
i-sd02 A speech dialler and public switched telephone network (PSTN) module that
allows the control unit to send recorded speech messages and also report
alarm information using standard protocols such as Fast Format, SIA and
Contact ID. This module also allows remote maintenance over the PSTN and
sending SMS messages.
i-gsm02 A GSM module that allows speech messaging, alarm reporting and SMS text
messaging over the GSM mobile phone network.
For the i-on16 the i-sd01 provides a speech dialler and public switched telephone network
(PSTN) module with the same features as the i-sd02.
To ensure that the i-on16, i-on30EX, i-on40, i-on50EX and i-on160EX comply with
EN50131 you must fit a suitable communicator to meet the Security Grade required.
The i-on30EXD and i-on50EXD also have built-in digital communicators. Note that the
communicators are disabled if you fit any of the above plug-on modules.

Programming the System

As an installer you can program the system in any of three separate ways:
a) From the keypad.

The EXP-R10 radio expander provides 10 zones for radio detectors.
The EXP-R30 provides 30 zones for radio detectors on an i-on160EX
or i-on50EX. When fitted to an i-on30EX the EXP-R30 provides 20
zones. In addition each radio expander provides channels for: two
radio keypads, two external radio sounders and two Wireless
Accessory Modules (WAMs) (Note that the i-on30EX supports only
one WAM.). Each radio expander also provides wired connections for
a Loudspeaker. The maximum number of expanders, detectors,
keypads and WAMs depends on control unit type, see page 9.
Note: The total number of radio detectors that can be handled by an
i-onEX control unit depends partly on the density of radio
transmitters within a given volume. If there are more than 30
transmitters within 10 meters radius of an expander then some
mutual jamming may occur. Please read "Guidance Notes For
Radio Alarm System" available from www.coopersecurity.co.uk.
The EXP-PSU remote power supply provides extra power and more
space for standby batteries for larger alarm systems. The EXP-PSU
also provides connections for either 10 FSL zones, or five 4-wire CCL
zones, or ten 2-wire CCL zones, plus a loudspeaker and four wired
programmable outputs.
The EXP-PSU connects to the system bus, and communicates with
the control unit in the same way as a wired expander.
