Supervised Alarm Input Configuration and Wiring
Supervised mode activates an alarm if the current in a line falls outside a specified range. This
blocks an attempt to defeat the alarm system by cutting a wire or through bypassing or
shorting a section of the circuit.
If the whole system is in supervised mode, then all inputs (including unused inputs) must be
terminated with 10K resistors (not included).
• If you want the alarm contacts to be N.O., then wire the terminating resistor in parallel with
the alarm contacts.
• If you want N.C., then wire the resistor in series.
