Fire Zone
Zones 7 and 8 may be programmed as fire zones. This will automatically exclude the availability of the zone
from programs and normal security applications.

Figure 8. Fire Zones
The fire zone detects fires all the time and will operate whether the system is Set or Unset. A fire will cause a
distinctive internal sounder tone. The external sounders will pulse on and off at 2 second intervals and all RKP
indicators will flash the affected zone.

PA Circuit
It is recommended that no more than 10 normally closed type personal attack button may be wired in series
and then connected to the PA circuit.
Operational in Unset and Set, the PA circuit will cause a full alarm condition when activated. PA is
indicated on the control panel or RKP.
PA buttons may be fitted near the front door or in a bedroom.

Extension Speaker
Extension speakers may be connected to the loudspeaker terminals to produce high volume alarm tones and
low volume entry / exit / fault tones.
Up to two 16 ohm extension speakers may be wired across the speaker terminals. Mounted in convenient
positions within the installation the extension speakers will reproduce all of the alarm tones generated by the
control panel.
A control marked VOLUME may be used to adjust the low volume entry/exit tones to suit environmental
conditions.Figure 10. Extension Speaker Wiring

External Siren (Bell Box) Output
The external siren (bell box) is usually installed in a high position from where the siren could be seen and
heard.
Terminal TADB are for connection to the external siren. These terminals provide a power/hold-off supply,
sounder trigger and tamper circuit to protect the external siren housing.
Figure 11. External Bell-box Wiring
The terminals are summarised as follows:
T = Negative (-Ve) tamper return
A = Negative (-Ve) supply (0V)
D = Positive (+Ve) supply (12V)
B = Negative (-Ve) Sounder trigger
For ease of installation, the Optima/Accenta control panels and Reson8 external sirens and modules use the
same markings.
Where a discrete external siren is used, it should be connected to terminals D and B. Terminals T and A are
then used for tamper protection for the housing.

13V Supply Output
The 13V output is to power detectors which require a voltage supply (PIR detectors etc). The supply is
present at all times and may be used to supply a total load of 350mA.
Set
The output marked SET is used with latching detectors. The output becomes positive on correct Set of the
system and is removed by entry of a valid user code.

Remote Signalling Input and Outputs
NOTE:These outputs are not applicable to the Optima compact panel.
These terminals have been provided for connection to remote signalling equipment such as a digital communi-
cator, or speech dialler.
13V 0V:  These terminals provide a 13V supply for the communicator up to a total load of 200mA.
OUTPUTS (J3): These outputs are programmed as active low output. They are held at 13V and fall to 0V
when active, it can source or sink 10mA.
These outputs would normally be connected directly to the input channels of wire in type communicators.
Alternatively each output can be used to drive a relay (coil resistance > 1200 Ohms ) connected between the
output terminal and the 13V supply terminal. The relay will energise when the output port operates. It is
recommended that a back EMF protection diode is used in parallel with the relay coil.
FIRE: The fire output operates when the fire zone is triggered.
PA: The PA output operates when a PA alarm is triggered or a duress code is used.
INT: The intruder output is operated when an intruder condition is triggered whilst the system is set.
SET: The Set output operates whenever the system becomes set and is used to indicate opening and closing.
ABORT: Operates if the panel is unset within 90 seconds of the alarm condition starting. It is cleared when
the panel is reset by the user or engineer.Figure 13. Panel communicator

Important Notes
1. Each output has been configured as active low.
2. Where the communicator is powered from an external source, not the panel and the outputs are being
used without relays, the panel and external power supply will require a common negative supply rail.
3. If the communicator is not fitted inside the panel and abort is being used, care should be taken to ensure
that the abort connection cannot be damaged or severed as this could cause the ARC to incorrectly
filter an alarm signal.
4. It is very important that communicating systems are fully tested and that all signals are correctly received
at the ARC when the system is installed and serviced.
Filtering of Intruder alarms
The exact method of filtering should be decided according to the security services / keyholder requirements
and ARC  procedures.
In general, the panels offer the following methods that could be used to filter an alarm.
Set/Unset A Set or Unset signal which is received by the ARC at around the same time as an intruder signal
can be used to filter the alarm.
Abort Output The abort output operates whenever a user code is entered to switch off an intruder alarm
condition. When an abort signal is received by ARC at or around the same time as an intruder signal, the alarm
can be filtered.
Restore of the Intruder Output The intruder alarm output is restored to 12V whenever a user code is
entered to switch off an intruder alarm condition. Where an intruder alarm is shortly followed by a restore at
the ARC, this can be used to filter the alarm.

Mains Connection
The mains power should be connected using 3-core cable of not less than 1 mm sq. from a fused spur to the
mains connector inside the control panel. The 2 A fused spur must be located close to the control panel.
NOTE:The mains supply must be connected by a technically competent person and according to current
IEE regulations.

CAUTION: To avoid the risk of electrical shock you must always totally isolate the mains
supply before opening the control panel cover(s).
Mains Input fuse rating: 125 mA, 250 V type T (anti-surge) and of a type approved to IEC 127 part 2
sheet III.
On connecting the mains supply to the panel the power indicator is lit.

Testing the System
Complete the wiring of the system and then:
„Fully test the system and ensure it is fault free.
„Fully program the system.
„Fill in the installation log at the back of the manual and retain if for future reference.
„Finally explain the operation of the system to the end user. The User Guide is attached to the centre of
this manual. Detach the User Guide and leave it with the user.

First Power Up
NOTE:For Optima compact, fit the top cover on to the base and connect the speaker wires.
1 Check that the factory fitted links are connected to terminals PA, TAMP and T-A.
2 Fit the battery wires to the battery terminals (BATT).
3 On connecting the battery, the system will go into an alarm condition with an audible alarm indication.
After entry of a valid user code, there is a Tamper indication.
4 Fit the cover to hold down the tamper spring at the bottom centre of the board.Figure 15. Battery Connection
