SW-1070 Main Panel Circuit Board Layout

SW-1070 main panel circuit board layout showing terminal strips, zone inputs, serial ports, Point ID Bus connections, antennas, mains entry, and all labeled components

Image Description

The SW-1070 main panel circuit board layout diagram viewed from above. The board is shown as a green PCB inside a grey enclosure, with the following labeled components organized by region:

Top terminal strip (left to right):

  • EXT BELL — External bell output with four vertically-labeled sub-terminals: TAMP (Tamper), SABB (Self-Activating Bell Box), RETN (Return), HOLD (Hold-Off).
  • INT BELL — Internal bell output (+ and - terminals).
  • STROBE — Strobe output (+ and - terminals).
  • OUTPUTS — Programmable outputs with terminals labeled +, 2, 1.
  • Aux 12V — Auxiliary 12V supply with + and - terminals.
  • REMOTE RKP/EXP — Remote Keypad / Expander bus with terminals labeled +, -, A, B.

Left-side callout labels (top to bottom, describing the top terminal strip groupings):

  • Bell Hold-Off — refers to the HOLD terminal on the EXT BELL group.
  • High-Current Outputs — refers to the EXT BELL, INT BELL, and STROBE outputs.
  • Tamper Return — refers to the TAMP and RETN terminals on the EXT BELL group.
  • Programmable Outputs — refers to the OUTPUTS terminals (+ 2 1).
  • Auxiliary 12V supply — refers to the Aux 12V (+ -) terminals.
  • Remote Keypad (RKP) bus — refers to the REMOTE RKP/EXP (+ - A B) terminals.

Left side (zone inputs):

  • Z1 through Z10 — Zone inputs arranged vertically along the left edge of the board. Each zone has two pairs of terminals: Alarm and Tamper. Zones are numbered 1 to 10 from top to bottom. A label at the bottom reads: "Zone Inputs (Alarm and Tamper) from 1 to 10."

Centre-left (connectors, top to bottom):

  • Serial Port 1 — First serial port connector.
  • Point ID Bus (x4) — Four Point ID Bus connection headers arranged vertically.
  • Connection to Power Supply — Connector for the panel's power supply unit.
  • Connection for Digi-Modem — Connector for the digital modem module.

Centre-right and right side (top to bottom):

  • Z8, Z9, Z10 — Additional zone input labels on the right side of the zone input area.
  • Antennas — Two RF antennas located in the upper-right area of the board with a note: "for best RF performance keep wiring away from antennas."
  • Tamper Switch — Board tamper switch.
  • Status LED — Status indicator LED.
  • Radio LED — Radio activity indicator LED.
  • Factory Default — Factory default reset button/jumper.
  • Serial Port 2 — Second serial port connector.
  • JP1 — Jumper JP1.
  • J3 — Connector J3.
  • J4 — Connector J4.
  • USB Port — USB port connector located at the bottom-right of the board.

Right side (Mains Entry area, outside the board in the enclosure):

  • Mains Entry label with: Live, Neutral, Earth connections.
  • Cord Grip — Cable strain relief.
  • Mains Fuse: 3.15A/250Vac Anti-surge (T) — Mains fuse rating.
  • Protective Cover for Fuse Spur — Protective cover over the fuse spur area.

Safety warnings (right side, marked with yellow hazard triangle symbols):

  • Warning 1: "Isolate mains before commencing any maintenance on this unit. The SW-1070 does not include a disconnect device to isolate the mains supply. Please ensure there is such a device fitted externally."
  • Warning 2: "After wiring mains, place protective cover on fuse the spur."

Top Terminal Strip

The top edge of the main panel board contains the following terminal groups, from left to right:

Terminal GroupTerminalsDescription
EXT BELLTAMP, SABB, RETN, HOLDExternal bell output with Tamper, Self-Activating Bell Box, Return, and Hold-Off sub-terminals
INT BELL+, -Internal bell output (high-current)
STROBE+, -Strobe output (high-current)
OUTPUTS+, 2, 1Programmable outputs
Aux 12V+, -Auxiliary 12V DC supply
REMOTE RKP/EXP+, -, A, BRemote Keypad / Expander data bus

Zone Inputs

Zones Z1 through Z10 are arranged vertically along the left side of the board. Each zone provides both Alarm and Tamper terminal pairs, numbered 1 to 10.

Useful Tips

  • For ease of installation you may remove lid by pulling out the black plastic hinges.
  • Always replace the mains fuse with the rating indicated.
  • Always ensure that a good earth is connected to the unit. This is required to ensure compliance with the EMC and LVD directives.
  • Isolate cables connected to panel from high voltage cables.

Mains Entry

The mains entry area is located on the right side of the enclosure, outside the main circuit board.

Safety Warnings

danger

Isolate mains before commencing any maintenance on this unit. The SW-1070 does not include a disconnect device to isolate the mains supply. Please ensure there is such a device fitted externally.

warning

After wiring mains, place protective cover on fuse the spur.
