kwano888 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Hi all, Need a little help and confirmation of the wiring connections to the Accenta G4 Panel and Sounder. The sounder is a Texecom Flashguard Minn-XW which I have to install internally due to conditions of placing external sounders on the Flat building. I originally had an Odyssey 3E which was working fine. The fault I am getting is 'Tamper Fault Lockout' on the LCD keypad. I have wired the Accenta G4 panel for the Sounder as follows : YELLOW connected to marked minus '-' on STROBE GREEN connected to ‘T’ BLACK connected to ‘A’ (12v) RED connected to ‘D’ (positive) WHITE connected to ‘B’ (negative) On the Sounder instructions it states : Panel : - Sounder 0v Strobe - connect to 1. STROBE 0V Sounder Trigger - connect to 2. TRIG - +12v Hold off supply - connect to 3. SUPPLY + 0v Hold off supply - connect to 4. SUPPLY - Tamper return - connect to 5. TAMPER R So I have wired the Sounder as follows : Panel : - Sounder 0v Strobe - connect to 1. STROBE - YELLOW 0V Sounder Trigger - connect to 2. TRIG - - WHITE +12v Hold off supply - connect to 3. SUPPLY + - RED 0v Hold off supply - connect to 4. SUPPLY - - BLACK Tamper return - connect to 5. TAMPER R - GREEN I have checked the tamper switch on the G4 is 'clicked' in and the Sounder tamper switch also looks fine. Everything was working fine on the originally Odyssey 3E Sounder so I just need confirmation if I have gone wrong somewhere on the wiring side or not. Pics attached. Thanks all in advance. Quote
al-yeti Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 If you loop the tamper on the panel does it clear? then reconnect wires at panel and loop at sounder end without sounder connected does it clear? Quote
antinode Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Not too clear on the photo, and I'm not familiar with the equipment, but it looks like you need to put a wire link between terminals 4 and 6 in the bell box. Quote Trade Member
datadiffusion Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Agreed, Terminal 6 must be Tamper Source Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
kwano888 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Posted May 20, 2015 Klaxon Klaxon and Texecom merged... If you loop the tamper on the panel does it clear? then reconnect wires at panel and loop at sounder end without sounder connected does it clear? Use the original link wire connect back on T & A ? Not too clear on the photo, and I'm not familiar with the equipment, but it looks like you need to put a wire link between terminals 4 and 6 in the bell box. Agreed, Terminal 6 must be Tamper Source The Sounder instructions state : 6. TAMPER S - This terminal is only used when connecting two units in series. (Note: remove series jumper when using tamper S input) Instructions here : http://www.klaxonsignals.com/images/Products/docs/datasheet/112.pdf Quote
al-yeti Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Yes if you link back does it all work fine on the panel and if wife up and link at bell ends does it clear the tamper? Meant wire up not wife up lol Quote
kwano888 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Posted May 20, 2015 Yes if you link back does it all work fine on the panel and if wife up and link at bell ends does it clear the tamper? Meant wire up not wife up lol OK, will try that tomorrow. Do you keep the wires in the panel whilst linking it or remove the green & black wires. Thanks. Quote
kwano888 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Posted May 21, 2015 All resolved now. Moved the Green wire to the Black on the Sounder so they are connected together and the fault clears. Thanks for everyones advice. Quote
al-yeti Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Eh? So no tamper switches work in sounder This way? Quote
