Wiring A Phone Line To The Panel; Full Line Seizure - GE Euro Simon Installation Instructions Manual

The total resistance of the wire loop must not exceed 3 ohms. This allows you to use up to 61 meters
of 2-conductor, .64 mm diameter stranded wire.
Connect hardwire reed switches to the panel using a 47k resistor as shown in Figure 7. The resistor
must be connected at the last switch in the circuit.

Wiring a Phone Line to the Panel

You can connect a phone line to the panel for systems monitored by a central monitoring sta-
tion and/or systems that notify users by voice event notification.
Basically, there are two methods for connecting the panel to a phone line; full line seizure and
no line seizure.

Full Line Seizure

This method requires that the panel be wired ahead (or in front) of all other phones, answering
machines, computers, or any other devices on the phone line. This allows the panel to take over
(seize) the phone line, even if another device on the line is in use.
An RJ-31X (CA-38A) jack should be installed when wiring for full line seizure. This lets the
user quickly and easily disconnect the panel from the phone line in case the panel disables the
phone line due to a malfunction.

Full Line Seizure Wiring with an RJ-31X
1. Run a 4-conductor cable from the TELCO block to the RJ-31X (A in Figure 8).
2. Connect the 4-conductor cable wires to the RJ-31X (B in Figure 8).
3. Disconnect the TIP (+) and RING (-) premises phone jack wires from the TELCO block
and splice them to the 4-conductor cable Black and White (or Yellow) wires (C in Figure
8). Use weatherproof wire connectors for these splices.
4. Connect the 4-conductor cable Green wire to the TELCO block TIP (+) post and connect
the Red wire to the TELCO block RING (-) post (D in Figure 8).
5. Connect the phone cord included with the panel to the RJ-31X and the panel LINE IN jack
(E in Figure 8)
