Connecting Cables - PTI Falcon Installation And Operation Manual

Connecting Cables

The PTI Falcon requires several connecting
cables for proper operation. Figure Four
illustrates the power cord for the PTI Falcon.
When installation is complete and you are
ready to turn on the system, the female end
of the power cord will plug into the power
outlet on the back of the PTI Falcon and the
male end will plug into a 120 VAC 60Hz
outlet. WARNING: TO AVOID SHOCK
HAZARD, NEVER PLUG THE MALE END
OF THE POWER CORD INTO A WALL
OUTLET WITH
EXPOSED!
Figure Five
If you have purchased a printer for the PTI
Falcon, it will come with a printer cable
similar to the one illustrated in Figure Six.
The printer cable has a twenty five pin male
connector on each end. One end plugs into
the printer connector on the back of the base
unit, and the other end plugs into the printer.
This cable is reversible, so direction is not
important.
THE FEMALE END
Figure Four
All of the remote keypads and other devices
communicate with the PTI Falcon through
the remote patch cord. This cord consists of
a 9 pin male connector which plugs into the
corner connector on the PTI Falcon. A three
position terminal block is on the other end. It
is on this terminal block that the field wiring
from the remote devices will terminate.
Systems with PTI door alarms will have a
second three position terminal block on the
end of this cable which provides the relay
contacts to trigger the alarm siren.
