reader inputs have been doubled as local bus devices – readers (local bus RAS) with
addresses from 1 to 4.
3.2.2 ATS1290 addressable sensor DGP
The ATS1290 addressable sensor DGP uses the PointID
®
interface for communications.
It is a serial, bi-directional, open–topology interface. Its range is limited only by the load of
the devices connected to the bus. The bus can have either two or four wires, depending
on the power supply assumptions for the devices.
A supplement for the DGP is a set of sensors and other addressable devices, listed in
Table 3-10. These are popular PIR sensors, also equipped with anti-masking capabilities,
and a set of universal devices for use with standard alarm equipment.
Using the addressable device technology enables:
• Shortening of the installation time;
• Decreasing the cost and complexity of the wiring;
• Simplifying extensions for existing systems and projects.
Connecting advanced sensors, equipped with anti-masking, Walk-Test capabilities, or the
control of LEDs, often requires cables with 6 or more wires. Besides, each sensor needs
to be connected via a separate, cable, and should be properly installed. Often the wiring
loom consists of tens of cables many wires each. Adding new elements often requires
laying out a cable from the nearest expansion to the detector. The addressable device
system is free from such limitations. Only one cable is necessary, laid out from sensor to
sensor, DGP to connection box etc. in an arbitrary fashion. The cable can also be the
same one that provides the system bus signal, and adding a new sensor consists of only
connecting it to the nearest existing device.

3.2.2.1 Wiring.
There are two ways to design a Point ID
®
bus, depending on the power supply of devices
connected to it:
• Power supplied directly form bus – two wire bus;
• Power supplied form an external source – 4-wire bus.
Although there are no limitations as to the type of wires used for the bus, it is necessary
to use wires with the lowest possible resistance and capacity to achieve the maximum
bus length – 1500m. Drawing 3-15 shows several possible bus topologies used during
testing.
