Assigning Zones to Zone Expanders

The main panel contains zones 1 to 8. Additional zone expanders may be added to increase the number
of zones on the system. Each zone expander consists of two groups of 4 zones and each group must be
configured to assign the specific zones to the expander. This is done by setting the jumpers located on
the expander to the proper settings.
Before a zone expander will work properly the jumpers must be set so the panel can determine the
correct zone assignment .
You cannot change the zone assignment of the PC5720 module. PC5720 zones are always assigned to
system zones 09-16. Refer to the PC5720 Installation Manual for more information.
The following are the jumper settings for different zone assignments:
J1, J2 and J3 set system zone assignments for expander zones 1-4
J4, J5 and J6 set system zone assignments for expander zones 5-8
The following are diagrams of the PC5108 and PC5700 zone expander modules and where the jumper
switches are located. Refer to the Installation Instructions of each module for more information.
There are two sets of jumpers, one set for the first 4 zones of the expander and one set for the other 4 zones .
In these two diagrams the jumpers settings shown indicate the first group of four zones of the expander
will be zones 9 to 12 and the second group of 4 zones will be 13 to 16. A group of zones can be disabled
if they are not required for the installation.
In the above diagram the jumpers settings shown indicate the first group of four zones of the expander
will be zones 9 to 12 and the second group of 4 zones will be 13 to 16.
