Zone Wiring

Your SW-10270 Control Panel comes with a minimum of 10 hardwired zone inputs - Zone 1 to 10.

  • By default these are shipped as a non-EOL (end-of-line) input (or Dual EOL 4K7 inputs in the UK).
  • The other EOL options are Single EOL, Dual EOL 4K7 and Dual EOL 2K2. See the wiring diagrams below.
  • If you have already mapped a wireless detector on to Zone 1 it cannot be used as a hardwired input unless you remove that wireless device and map it on to another zone number instead.

Standard Non-EOL Wiring

Most commonly used within the industry

Standard Non-EOL wiring diagram

Image Description

Standard Non-EOL wiring diagram showing a green terminal block labelled ZONE 1 (bottom two terminals) and TAMPER 1 (top two terminals). Four wires connect from the terminal block to the detector(s): YELLOW wire from the top terminal to TAMPERS 1.. 10 (dashed line indicating loop through multiple tamper contacts); BLUE wire from the second terminal; BLACK wire from the third terminal to SENSORS 1.. 10 (dashed line indicating loop through multiple alarm contacts); RED wire from the bottom terminal. No end-of-line resistors are used.

Single End of Line Wiring

Usually for retrofit in a previous EOL system

Single End of Line wiring diagram

Image Description

Single End of Line wiring diagram showing a green terminal block labelled ZONE 1 (bottom two terminals) and TAMPER 1 (top two terminals). Four wires connect from the terminal block: YELLOW wire from the top terminal to TAMPERS 1.. 10 (dashed line); BLUE wire from the second terminal; BLACK wire from the third terminal to SENSORS 1.. 10 (dashed line); RED wire from the bottom terminal. A 4K7 resistor is connected across the end of the sensor loop (across SENSORS 1.. 10).

Dual End of Line Wiring 4K7

Single Detector (e.g. PIR with only 4-core cable)

Dual EOL 4K7 single detector wiring diagram

Image Description

Dual End of Line 4K7 wiring diagram for a single detector (e.g. PIR with only 4-core cable). A green terminal block labelled ZONE 1 (bottom two terminals) and TAMPER 1 (top two terminals). A 4K7 resistor bridges the two TAMPER 1 terminals (top of terminal block). RED wire from the ZONE 1 top terminal connects to the detector's ALARM contact. YELLOW wire from the ZONE 1 bottom terminal connects to the detector. A second 4K7 resistor is connected across the detector's ALARM contacts. The detector's TAMPER contact connects back to the terminal block.
