Can I mix Heat Detectors and 2 wire smokes with a sounder when using a D132A Smoke Detector Polarity Reversing Module?
Solution
No. When a Heat detector goes into alarm it puts a short on the input zone to indicate the alarm. The D132A uses Aux power from the panel when the polarity reversal takes place and since a heat detector does not reset when polarity is reversed, it would put a direct short on the Aux power of the panel. Consequently everything connected to the same Aux power terminals would not function.

When programming the D279 keypad point index on the 7000/9000, G, GV2, & GV3 series panels, how should the type and response be programmed?
Solution
Program a type 7 for D279 (O/C Non-Priority): The D279 provides point arming and disarming independent of the area arm state. A non-priority D279 point arm state does not affect the area arm state. Point Response must be programmed 1. Program type 8 for D279 (O/C Priority): The D279 provides point arming and disarming independent of the area arm state. A priority D279 point must be armed before an area can be armed. Program Point Response as 2.

How far can the D9131A be installed remoted from the control panel?
Solution
The D9131A can be installed a maximum of 1000 ft. (305m) from the panel using 22 AWG solid copper wire.
How to determine the max distance the DX2010 can be remote located from the control panel.
This distance is determined by whether or not the DX2010 is supplying auxiliary power to devices. The DX2010 has the capacity to provide 12 VDC at up to 100 mA from the Aux Output terminals to power external devices such as motion detectors.

Issue
Trouble connecting to the D4412 with RPS / RAM IV using the DX4010i.
What dip switches need to be set to make the DX4010i connect to the panel?
What type of cable is needed between the DX4010i and the Laptop or PC?
Solution
RAMIV / RPS needs to be revision 3.6 or higher.
Set the address 0 (Installer's mode) Dip Switches 6 and 8 in the off postion on the DX4010i.
Use a NULL cable to connect the DX4010i to the Laptop or PC.
For remote programming connection, use the RJ-16 to molex connector to the Aux / Data header.
Lock the Installer or Reset Pin on the panel.
In the RSP/ RAMIV Connection screen change the connection type from MODEM to ENHANCED DIRECT, then click connect.
*If connected to a D4412 panel and the address is set wrong on the DX4010i then a message of "INVALID RAM PASSCODE" may be generated.
Can the D125B be Used to Power 2 Wire Smokes on the D7112?
Yes, see technogram number (73-06116-000-C) 1993 (attached). Listings and Approvals Underwriters Laboratories lists the D7112 ControVCommunicator as a Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) for: NFPA 71 Central Station, NFPA 72 Chapter 6 Local, NFPA 72 Chapter 8 Remote Station, NFPA 74 Household Fire Warning. The D7112 also has the following Approvals: CSFM and NYC-MEA (formerly NYC-BSA).
Overview
The Bosch Security Systems D221 Answering Machine Disconnect Module allows you to remotely disconnect an answering machine that shares a phone line with a Bosch Security Systems control panel. When the answering machine disconnects the phone line is available to the control/communicator for remote programming (RPS) functions. A Touch-tone® telephone at the RAM site is required to perform the disconnect procedure. The D221 can be installed with an existing modular telephone jack or be a replacement for an RJ-11 jack.
Issue
What activates the module to disconnect the answering machine?
Solution
From a touch tone phone call the phone line, let the answering machine answer the line. The # key or the 8 key will activate the module.
1) module white jumper cut = # key
2) module black jumper cut = 8 key
**Note: The RAM session is not affected when the D221 restores the phone line to the answering machine. Some answering machines record tones generated during the RAM session. If the D221 Module is used with an integrated telephone/ answering machine device, pressing the activation key ([#] or [8]) during normal use may activate the D221 and disconnect the device for 3 to 5 minutes.
