The alarm node has 5 functions.
• 1- An alarm board with 4 alarm relays.
• 2- A PC watchdog with one watchdog relay.
The MT-Alarm node also serves as a base for three of the following optional
control module:
• 3-One Real Time Clock node (RTC) standard on a MT336B
• 4-One or more HVAC Scheduler
• 5-One or more Lighting Scheduler

In its simplest form, the purpose of the “alarm relay node” is to activate a relay
when an “alarm message” is received from an “alarm source” in the system.
When the “alarm source” is acknowledged, it sends a “return to normal” message
to the “alarm relay node” which deactivates the relay.
It is only used as a base and power source for the RTC and Scheduler node.

!" #

3.1 Power
The MT-Alarm node requires 16VAC to 24VAC. With a 32V centre tap (CT)
transformer, using one of the phases and the CT will give 16VAC. The alarm
node must not be powered with the full 32VAC. The MT-Alarm board with 3
control modules 950-3968 will require 10VA.

There are indicator leds for the 12V and the 5V. The 12V is used for the relays.
The 5V powers the on-board microprocessor as well as the plug-in modules. A
fault on the MT-Alarm board could affect all the plug-in modules.

3.2 Data
There are two data connectors. On a BUS topology you must bring the data into
the board with one connector and exit from the other.

3.3 EE Blank
There is a built-in EEBlank. Should the alarm node be corrupted during the
software download, and require “blanking”, short JP1 and reset the board. You
should see the service led blink rapidly for a few seconds. Wait until the service
led stop blinking. Remove the short and reset the board once more. Normal
operation should be reestablished. This is not applicable for the plug-in modules.
