8 Channel Conventional Zone Module (S792) Information Guide Circuit Activation Circuit activation should be achieved with the use of trigger resistors. This enables the panel to report a trouble in the event of a short circuit in the wiring. When trigger resistors are not used, Short Circuit Activation must be enabled in the panel programming.
8 Channel Conventional Zone Module (S792) Information Guide NOTE Each trigger resistor must be in the same enclosure (or a close-nippled enclosure) as its normally-open volt- free contact. Testing the Installation 1. Confirm communication from the panel via the LED status indicators. LED indicators provide functional and diagnostic information as shown below.
8 Channel Conventional Zone Module (S792) Information Guide CONFIGURATION The 8 Channel Conventional Zone Panel Module can be configured via LE2 or the Panel GUI. The following instructions detail configuration via LE2. NOTE The panel module must be added to the configuration via Loop Explorer 2 or an Autolearn on the panel.
