…always there
Important:
THE ALARM SYSTEM MUST BE TOTALLY POWERED DOWN (SWITCH OFF
MAINS AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY) BEFORE INSTALLATION CAN
COMMENCE.
For certain alarm panels, the 3GSTU-PLI can be directly mounted using the
"Plug-in" connections available. Locate it on the two 8-way connectors on the
control panel circuit board. Take care to align the pins to the sockets on the
board correctly: if they are out of alignment, damage may occur.
For other alarm panels and installations where “Plug-in” connections are not
available, the unit can be wired “stand-alone”. Fix the STU to the inside of the
control panel using the adhesive mounting pads provided after ensuring that the
control panel and STU base are free from dust or grease.
Care must be taken when connecting wires to the terminal blocks TB1,2,3,4 and
TB5. The small screws can be easily damaged by over-tightening. Wiring
connected to terminal blocks should be kept as short as possible to reduce the
likelihood of radio frequency (RF) pickup.
Connecting the Telephone Line and Earth
The TNV circuit cover of the STU should not be removed whilst the unit is
connected to the PSTN or Private Wire network.
Remove the TNV circuit cover from the STU.
Use two core telephone cable (type: 1/0.5 mm CW1308) that is not yet
connected to the PSTN or Private Wire (PW) network. Strip back the insulation
so that 5 mm of wire conductor is exposed. Position the cable in the plastic base
as shown on page 12. Connect one core to the terminal marked A and the other
to the terminal marked B.
Strip back an earth cable (green/yellow, core area greater than 1mm²) so that
5mm of wire is exposed. Position the cable in the plastic base as shown on page
12 and connect it to the terminal marked
