The essential purpose of any sale or contract for sale of any of the products listed in the POTTER catalog or price list is the furnishing of that product. It is expressly understood that in furnishing said product, POTTER does not agree to insure the Purchaser against any losses the Purchaser may incur, even if resulting from the malfunction of said product.
The System must be used with an appropriate UL listed control unit. The standard EVD-2 system consists of a model EVD-M controller and a model EVD-R remote pickup. FEATURES •...
When the number of valid signals matches the setting on the rotary switch, the EVD-M signals an alarm. This feature can be useful for installing an EVD-2 system where some noise is normal. The accumulator is only active when the rotary switch setting is NOT zero.
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 EVD-R REMOTE PICKUP The EVD-R remote pickup detects attack vibrations with the same vibration sensing components as the internal pickup on the EVD-M controller. The EVD-R amplifies and transmits these vibrations to the EVD-M controller.

EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 RECOMMENDED WIRING Figure 4 shows the recommended wiring for an EVD-2 system with two additional EVD-R remote pickups. (All wiring should be as specified in Table 1 or with UL listed equivalents.) Cable clamp knockout locations are shaded.
Verify proper installation of the end of line resistors. Refer to Figures 2b and 4 for systems with remote pickups. Wire control unit connections and apply 12 VDC to the EVD-2 system. Refer to Figure 5a. See Figure 5b & 5c for 4 or 6 wire installation wiring.
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 RECOMMENDED CONTROL PANEL WIRING WITH SAFE DETECTOR ZONE AND 24 HOUR ALARM ZONE (High security B cable and connections to 24 hr zone as shown are required for UL safe compatible installations)
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENTS Adjust the EVD-M’s internal pickup sensitivity control, RV1, to 1/2 scale (12 o’clock position). Refer to Figure 1 for adjustment location. If remote pickups are installed, adjust the EVD-M’s remote pickup network sensitivity control, RV2, to the minimum setting listed in Table 2.
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 TESTING Applying a magnet to the side of the EVD-M controller, (see Figure 1), actuates a magnetic switch and generates a test signal. Similarly, applying a magnet to the side of an EVD-R remote pickup , (see Figure 3), actuates a magnetic switch and causes the EVD-R to transmit a test signal to the EVD-M controller.
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 RECOMMENDED DETECTOR LOCATIONS Single Detector Applications All safe applications must have at least an EVD-M or an EVD-R on the body of the Figure 6. safe. When only one detector is required...
(if safe has double doors). In some single detector applications, the EVD-2 system may be used to protect multiple safes via a combination of an EVD-M and multiple EVD-R remote pickups. For applications with a larger distance than that shown in Table 5, consult Potter’s technical support for assistance.
In those cases, contact Potter’s technical support for assistance. Table 6 lists some common safe dimensions and their maximum linear distances when detectors are installed in recommended locations.
EVD-2 • 5401042 • REV L • 03/05 TYPICAL UL COMPLETE SAFE INSTALLATIONS 1. Install in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories’ standard UL 681. 2. Install EVD-M and EVD-R detectors in recommended locations at recommended spacings. 3. Install UL listed, high security contacts on the exterior of the safe or UL listed, ordinary use contacts on the inside of the safe.
