4208SN - Installation and Setup Guide Dated 3/09

ADEMCO 4208SN

V-Plex Eight Zone Expander


Installation and Setup Guide
FEATURES
The ADEMCO 4208SN is a V-Plex
®
eight zone expander for use with
Resideo controls that support serial number V-Plex
(polling loop)
devices. Characteristics of this device include:

•

Can be optionally powered from the control panel a
ux. power
supply to reduce the amount of current draw from th
e polling loop.
•

Uniquely identifies 8 EOLR supervised zones (all z
ones use 10k
resistors, supplied).
•

Each zone is identified by a unique serial number,
which is
assigned via on-board DIP Switches.
•

Detects faults on all zones within 400ms of occurr
ence. Loops A
& B can be programmed for fast (10ms) response.
•

Provides cover tamper protection, which may be ena
bled or
disabled via on-board DIP Switches.

MOUNTING
!

1.
Power
should
be
disconnected
before
proceeding.

2.
Be sure to mount the 4208SN before making any
wire connections.



When mounted remotely, tamper protection is require
d. Holes on the
back of the module’s housing permit it to be mounte
d horizontally or
vertically. Wires can exit from the side or the br
eakout on the back of
the housing. To enable tamper protection, set DIP
Switch 8 to OFF
and attach the tamper magnet (provided) (Figure 1)
to the module
inside cover. Be sure to enable the expansion zone
tamper option at
the control (program field *24 = 0). If the module
’s cover is removed,
the magnet attached to the cover (positioned near t
he reed switch) will
cause a tamper signal to be sent to the control for
every active zone on
the 4208SN module. When the installation is comple
te, install the
cover and affix the Serial Number and Zone Assignme
nt Tables to the
inside cover of the control.

When mounted inside the cabinet with the control, t
he 4208SN should
be mounted horizontally and does not need tamper pr
otection,
provided the cabinet is supervised. Insert two scr
ews into the raised
metal tabs leaving the heads app. 1/8” exposed, the
n hang the
4208SN using the two slots on the back.
1. INSERT BOTTOM TABS FIRST.
2. ENGAGE TOP WITH CLIP.

For CE installations, ADEMCO N6361 EMI
suppression bead is required. Refer to the N6361
installation guide for wire routing instructions.


Polling loop and protection loop wires can be broug
ht in either through
the back or front of the unit by removing the knock
outs. Use 22 gauge
twisted pair wire for polling loop connections. Al
l protection loops use
10k EOL resistors (included). A maximum resistance
of 300 ohms is
allowed on protection loops (excluding EOLR). See
Figure 2 for all
connections. Keep in mind that connections to the
polling loop are
always required, while aux. power connections are o
ptional.

For UL commercial and household fire installations,
no more than one wire per terminal may be
connected.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
The DIP Switches are used to assign serial numbers
to loops A
through H. You can assign the serial number of any
module loop to
any of the control panel’s expansion zones. You do
not lose zone
numbers if you do not use all eight module loops.
To select serial
numbers for loops A through H, follow the steps bel
ow using Figure 3
and Tables 1 through 4 for DIP Switch settings:
1.
Select fast/slow response for loops A and B using D
IP Switch 1:
Fast = OFF (10msec) Slow = ON (400msec). Do not se
lect fast
response for a zone dedicated for Fire usage
.

2.
Select Serial Number Assignment Table containing th
e desired
group of 8 serial numbers (Tables 1 through 4) usin
g DIP switches
6 and 7.
3.
Select the group of 8 serial numbers using DIP swit
ches 2, 3, 4,
and 5. See the Table selected in step 2 for serial
number
assignments. If using more than one 4208SN be sure
to set each
one to a different group setting.
4.
Select the Tamper Protection setting using DIP Swit
ch 8: Tamper
Disabled = ON Tamper Enabled = OFF. Tamper will re
port for
every active zone on the 4208SN module.

PANEL PROGRAMMING
When the 4208SN is used as a zone expander, each of
the module
loops that will be used must be assigned to one of
the control panel’s
expansion zones. To accomplish this, assign a modu
le loop’s serial
number to a control panel’s expansion zone using pr
ocedures
contained in the control panel’s installation instr
uctions. Expansion
zones must be programmed as INPUT TYPE “6”
−
SL (Serial Number
V-Plex Loop Device), which will enable the control
panel to accept the
serial number. Module loops can be programmed in a
ny order and can
be assigned to any legitimate control panel expansi
on zone.


!

If enrolling a serial number by faulting its
associated loop, be sure that other V-Plex
loop
dev
ices are not activated, as they may interfere
with the device being enrolled.

When prompted to “enroll” the serial number for a p
articular zone, you
may enter the serial number for the associated modu
le loop manually
through the keypad, through the V-Link downloader,
or by momentarily
.faulting (shorting) and restoring the terminals of
the associated
module loop twice when prompted by the keypad. If
entering a serial
number manually through the keypad, enter the seria
l number and
press “*” to advance to the next prompt, which will
ask you for the loop
number. Enter a “1” for the loop number for each s
erial number
entered.
If enrolling or entering a serial number, and the m
essage “Duplicate of
Zone XX” is displayed, another device with that sam
e serial number is
aready in the system. In that case, use a differen
t serial number group
setting on the 4208SN.
If desired, peel the label corresponding to the ser
ial number
assignment table used from the sheet of labels supp
lied, and apply it to
the outside of the case cover or next to the module
for future
reference.


VERIFICATION OF PROGRAMMING
To verify proper 4208SN wiring and programming, fau
lt each of the
module loops that are used and verify that the cont
rol panel displays
the correct zone number on the keypad.
