7/50D Plus or 7/50D Controller Chapter 3: Installation 33
Connecting Central Alarms to the Network
Make sure that all previous installation steps have been done first before starting this task.
First, determine where the best location for central alarms should be, and install the
alarm module(s) there. You’ll use two yellow patch cords to connect.
To connect an alarm module to the network:
1. Attach one connector of the first yellow patch cord to the terminal on the alarm
module. Tighten the cord grip ring until snug.
2. Attach the other connector to the upper right terminal of the ArmorBlock. Tighten
the cord grip ring until snug.
