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.

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?

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

Klaxon and Texecom merged...

Use the original link wire connect back on T & A ?

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)

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.

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.

Eh?

So no tamper switches work in sounder This way?
