The VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Unit is an array of 4
Sub-Rack Remote Box Models and can be mounted on a 19"
Sub-Rack.
Note: It cannot operate without a fully loaded sub-rack.
Once unboxed, please ensure the Relay plugs are plugged
in on the rear side of the device as shown to avoid any static
charges while handling.
Note: Connections are made following the legend shown in
Figure 2 Socket Locations.
The 19" Sub-Rack can be stacked in a vertical array using
Din Rails or server rack mounts system.
• Ensure the assembled VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack
Remote Unit mount holes align with the 19" server
rack / Din Rail mount holes, position for continuous
repetition stack with minimum gap i.e. 1U hole
position.

1. The VESDA-E Sub-Rack Remote Box (A) is rested on the base metal platform of the 19" Sub-Rack
(C) provided.
2. Match the locater pin (D) shown on th 19" Sub-Rack (B) to the slot feature (i) provided on the
VESDA-E Sub-Rack Remote Box (A) and slide-in gently.
3. Push the VESDA-E Sub-Rack Remote Box (A) gently till the rear standoff (E) bottoms to the 19"
2.77 W Sub-Rack (B) inside rear face (F).
4. Secure each VESDA-E Sub-Rack Remote Box (A) from the rear side of 19" Sub-Rack (B) using four
screws (G) provided.

Provided is a scenario where less than 4 units of Sub-Rack Remote Boxes are used, then the
subsequent empty slots in 19" Sub-Rack should be installed with a VEK-0 blank box to bridge the
VESDAnet communication.
Warning: Make sure that there are Jumper card PCB installed (i) to all VEK-0 Sub-Rack Blank Box
Position, otherwise the device will raise open loop fault.
Avertissement : Assurez-vous qu'un circuit imprimé de carte de couplage est installé (i) à tous les
emplacements de boîtier vide de casier VEK-0. Dans le cas contraire, l'appareil
déclenchera un défaut de boucle ouverte.

The VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Unit provides rear access for Power, VESDAnet, Relays and
Ethernet connections while the backplane interconnects the power and VESDAnet connections between
various VESDA-E Sub-Rack Remote Box models stacked/assembled in a 19" Sub-Rack.
Power:
• The VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Unit can be powered with an external 24 VDC Power Supply
(compliant with local codes and standards) / VESDA-E detector via designated PWR IN socket at
rear side.
Note: The VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Unit will not operate if the power supply polarity is
reversed.
• Use the designated PWR OUT socket to connect up to three VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Units
in a daisy chained manner for vertical stack mounting to the PWR IN socket on each subsequent
VESDA-E 19" Sub-Rack Remote Unit connected from the same power supply.
Connection to VESDAnet:
• The VESDAnet A & B connector at the rear side is used for loop-in/loop-out connection as below.
