A 2081 Remote Plate - Redback A 4565B Operating Manual

3.2 A 2081 Remote Plate

The A 2081 wall plate provides a remote means of triggering the Alert, Evacuation and Bell tones and the cancel function.
Connection is made to the A 4565B via a minimum of 8 wires, if the ground connections of the Alert,Evac and Bell 24V
outputs and the Alert/Evac/Chime and cancel switch grounds are linked together (see Fig 3.2B).
(It is possible to use Cat5/6 cable for this purpose). Remote triggering is only available when the A 4565B is in "Auto"
mode which is selected by the key switch on the front of the A 4565B. If light duty cable is used for the wiring (such as
Cat5 cable), the plate can be located up to 30m away from the main unit. This can be increased to 100m away using
heavier guage cable, which reduces the voltage drop across this distance and ensures the switch LED's illuminate. The
Alert/Evac/Chime/Cancel switches on the A 2081 wall plate are connected to the corresponding contacts on the rear of
the A 4565B. While the Alert,Evac and Bell LEDs on the wall plate are connected to the Alert,Evac and Bell 24V outputs of
the A 4565B. The cancel LED is not connected.

If the Alert,Evac and Chime switches on the A 2081 are pressed
when the A 4565B main unit is in "Manual" OR "Isolate" mode,
nothing will happen. If the Alert, Evac and Bell switches are
pressed on the A 4565B while in "Manual" mode the Alert, Evac
and Chime switches on the A 2081B wall plate will illuminate.
