The DSC PCL-422 is a remote mounting module that is compatible with the DSC PowerSeries Neo alternative alarm communicators. The PCL-422 module helps with mounting the PowerSeries Neo alarm communicator outside the alarm controller cabinet.
Two PCL-422 modules are required, one mounted in the alarm controller cabinet and one in a remote cabinet with the alternate communicator. The PCL-422 may be installed in the same metallic cabinet as the alarm controller/power supply (PC5003C). Internal and/or external wiring for the PCL-422 must be routed, supported, clamped or secured in a manner that reduces the likelihood of (a) excessive strain on wire and terminal connections, (b) loosening of terminal connections, and (c) damage of conductor insulation.
When installing ensure the remote mounted PCL-422 is installed on the left wall of the enclosure, to allow room for the battery. And, remember to ensure correct orientation of the PCLink cable. When the PCL-422 is remotely installed with a HSM2204/2300, use the power supply tamper input to protect the cabinet. If an additional power supply is not being used, a zone programmed as 24 hour non-latching tamper or 24 hour latching can be used to protect the cabinet. A HSM2300/2204 power supply module is required if the RS-422 cable used exceeds 50 feet. Use the power supply’s tamper input to protect the cabinet, or use a panel zone input defined as 24 Hr latching or 24 Hr non-latching tamper zone type.
