  • Page 5: Function

    M4200 - User manual Function The Alarm Monitor M4200 provides the possibility of monitoring 8 individual processes. All inputs will accept any combination of NO or NC contacts. It is possible to programme each input, e.g. to activate the siren relay, the two alarm relays or the four open collector outputs.
  • Page 6: Installation Instructions

    M4200 - User manual Installation instructions This section contains information about how to install the alarm monitor. Single unit Figure 2 shows the default connection of the input and output terminals on the alarm monitor. Input terminals 1 - 8 are connected to +REF OUT (positive supply) via potential free contacts.
  • Page 7: Multiple Units

    M4200 - User manual Multiple units Figure 3 shows the default connection of the input and output terminals on two M4200 units. Input terminals 1 - 8 are connected to +REF OUT (positive supply) on one of the units via potential free contacts.
  • Page 8: Relay Outputs

    M4200 - User manual Relay outputs The alarm monitor has 3 output relays; all of them can be activated by any of the 8 alarm inputs. The relays can work as de-energized or energized, when the power is on the alarm monitor. The alarm monitor is delivered with all output relays operating in normally de-energized mode.
  • Page 9: Normally Energized

    M4200 - User manual Normally energized Figure 5 shows the connection of the output terminals when the relay is programmed to be normally energized. It is possible to programme each of the output relays to operate individually as normally energized. This means that the relay changes position from terminal 33 to terminal 35 (siren relay) when the power is switched on.
  • Page 10: Load Capacity

    M4200 - User manual Load capacity The output relays are able to manage any kind of resistive load. The load capacity depends on whether AC or DC voltage is connected to the relay. Below is listed the maximum load capacity for AC and DC voltage respectively: Max.
  • Page 11: Open Collector Outputs

    M4200 - User manual Open collector outputs The alarm monitor has 4 open collector outputs; all of them can be activated by any of the 8 alarm inputs. These outputs are able to work as energized or de- energized, similar to the output relays. This section contains information about the 2 principles and how to use them.

  • Page 13: Cable Monitoring

    M4200 - User manual Cable monitoring Cable monitoring provides extra security to the alarm system. Cable faults are indicated with short flashing pulses on the corresponding alarm channels. Cable fault indications will be overridden by activation of input alarms and indicated with normal alarm flash or steady light indication.
