Hills Reliance 128 / NX16 Terminal Descriptions
| Terminal | Description |
| EARTH | Earth / Ground.
To comply with ACA S009 & AS/NZS3000:2000. Connect to the 16.5V AC plug pack earth wire. |
| AC | AC input. Connect a 16.5V, 25 VA, 40 VA or 50 VA approved transformer. |
| BELL + & BELL – | Built in siren driver, if used as a siren output (default), the speaker rating should be 15 Watt at 8 or 16 Ohm, or 30/40 Watt at 4, 8, or 16 Ohm, 250mA maximum load.
If voltage output is selected in Feature 22 – Segment 2 – Option 1, this output becomes voltage output, 12 VDC, 1 Amp maximum load. Note: A 3.3K resistor may be required across the bell terminals when a 12 VDC siren is used. If no resistor is used, you may experience voltage leakage into the siren that will cause these devices to output a small signal. |
| KP DATA | Connect the to the KP data terminal on the code pads and the expanders (usually blue or green wire). Maximum total wire run is 800 metres using 14/020 cable. These numbers are for one code pad at the end of the wire. When connecting more than one code pad to the system bus wire, a higher gauge wire will be required, or there will be a reduction in maximum wire distance. Maximum 32 devices. |
| KP COM | Connect to the Common terminal on the code pads and the expanders (usually the black wire). |
| KP POS | Connect to the Positive terminal on the code pads and the expanders (usually the red wire). The KP POS and AUX PWR + terminals are limited to 1 Amp total current when added together. |
| SMOKE+ | Smoke detector power 12VDC, 500mA maximum. |
| COM | Connect negative wire of powered devices such as motion detectors and smoke detectors. |
| AUX PWR+ | Connect positive wire of all powered devices except smoke detectors and code pads. This terminal and KP POS are limited to 1 Amp total current when added together. |
| ZONE 8 | Connect to one side of zone 8 loop. Connect the other side to a COM terminal. Open or short causes alarm. Zone 8 may be used for a two-wire smoke detector using a 680 E.O.L. resistor. See Feature 22. |
| COM | Common (-) terminal for zones 7 & 8. (See the wiring diagram for examples) |
| ZONE 7 –
ZONE 1 |
Connect to one side of zone loop. Connect the other side to a COM terminal. Open or short causes alarm. Only zone 8 can be a two-wire smoke zone. (See the wiring diagram for examples) |
| AUX RELAY OUT 1-2 | Relays one and two switch a 12 volts output on their N/C and N/O terminals. This means that you connect the positive lead of your device to these terminals, and connect the negative lead to a COM terminal. Ensure your device does not exceed the ratings of these relays, max 400 mA per output, max 800 mA total output. |
| AUX OUT 3-4 | Auxiliary outputs 3 and 4 (in addition to 1 & 2) are located on a pin header J7, see wiring diagram for details. |
| Battery Leads | Connect black (-) and red (+) leads to a 12VDC sealed lead acid rechargeable battery. Do not connect to a dry cell battery. |

| AUX OUT 4
(or Zone 7 /Smoke +) |
Alternatively this output can be programmed in Feature 22 as Zone 7 two-wire smoke detector. Use a 680 E.O.L. resistor with the two-wire smoke detector. Current is limited to 250mA when output is negative and 250 microamps maximum when output is positive. |
| Note: The 2-wire smoke loop cannot be enabled if Zone Doubling is used. | |
