This article explains the proper address selection when connecting the B450 to a Bosch Intrusion Panel. This information is needed to determine which address to select based on panel type, panel firmware revision and if Remote Programming Software will use the B450 to connect to the panel.   Step-by-step guide   Note the sticker on the front of the B450 which indicates switch positions for selecting an SDI2, SDI or Option Bus address (see figure 1).   Figure 1 Sticker with address configurations B8512G, B9512G and B-Series types: The B450 is not required when the cellular communicator will be installed in the Mod-1 (lower) plug-in slot. Use the B450 in applications where signal strength is weak at the panel location. Install the B450 in a remote location with stronger signal strength and connect to SDI2. Follow the instructions below for GV4 panel types connecting to SDI2. GV4 Panel Types: SDI2: Only 1 network communicator is allowed on a single address. Use address 1 or 2 as needed to avoid conflicting with another network communicator on the same address. Connections with Remote Programming Software are available on either address 1 or 2. GV4 or GV3 using SDI: Only 1 network communicator is allowed on a single address. Use address 88 or 92 as needed to avoid conflicting with another network communicator on the same address. When used as sole communicator or as back-up communicator to Phone line, use address 4 for SDI address 88. When used as back-up communicator to Ethernet (B426) use address 5 for SDI address 92, unless the B450 will be used for RPS connections (see note 4 below). Note that SDI address 88 is required for connecting to Remote Programming Software (Ethernet is preferred when allowed). GV2 v7.06+ Panel Types (SDI only): Use address 4 for SDI address 88.

The B8512 or B9512 supervises keypads even when disabled Related Products B8512 B9512 B915 B920 B921C B925F  B926F B930 B942    Overview   Issue The B8512 or B9512 supervises keypads even when Supervision=NO   Solution    If the keypad Type is set to an SDI type keypad (see below) the supervision setting can be configured YES or NO.  When the keypad Type is set to one of the SDI2 type keypads the supervision Yes/No setting is ignored and the keypad is supervised.   SDI2 devices are always supervised by design regardless of the supervision setting.   SDI Keypads  SDI2 Keypads  D1255 VFD Keypad (SDI)  B915  D125xRB Keypad (SDI)  B920  D126x LCD Keypad (SDI)  B921C    B925F    B926F    B930    B942 Notes SDI2 devices that are the same type of device must use different addresses. SDI2 devices that are not the same type can be configured to the same address.  For example: The B915, B92x, B930 or B942 are all same device types (keypads) and must use different addresses. The B920, B208 and B520 are all different device types and can all use the same address.
