Intruder
Alarm Control Panel - our 5-zone professional-standard controller
forms the heart of a security system compliant with British Standard BS4737.
Has exit/ entry delays, auto reset, bell shut off, walk test and many
other options. Separate bell module also described.
In the June
2001 issue (P.431) we published corrections as follows. Page 357 Fig 5:
unfortunately the main p.c.b. component layout shows some of the diodes
incorrectly annotated. They should be as follows: D5 becomes D22; D6 becomes
D11; D7 becomes D12; D8 becomes D6; D9 is ok; D10 becomes D8; D11 becomes
D10 and D12 becomes D5; D22 becomes D7. The circuit and components list
are correct. The author also adds that the battery for the extension bellunit
mayb e any voltage between 7.2V and 12V, rated approx 250mAh, Ni-cad or
sealed lead-acid.
