(Switched Aux. Power) should be used to supply power.
• A self resetting PTC protects this output.
5 & 6 Tamper Input
• The cabinet door must use a UL listed tamper switch to comply for UL certification.
• This input requires a Normally Closed contact.
• This input does not require an end of line resistor.
6 & 57 Ground Inputs
• Terminals 6 and 57 are Ground (-) inputs and may be used as the return side for powered devices, or for any
device that requires a ground reference.

• Use only a 12VDC lead acid. Use of any other battery type may cause damage.
• SMDC provides a continuous 13.6VDC to the panel under normal conditions.
• 11.45VDC, a low battery signal will be transmitted to the central station if programmed.
• 11.85VDC, the panel will transmit a battery restore code to the central station, if programmed.
• The panel will disconnect the battery 9.0 Vdc after loss of AC power
• The control panel will revert to the same operating condition once the AC power has returned.
• The SMDC control panel is protected by a self-resting PTC.

P2 Keypad Connector
• This input allows for a SMPC keypad to be easily attached to the control panel via Optex part number 5090-0194
cable assembly to program the control panel or to perform any task that would be simplified by having the keypad
attached directly to the control panel.
