AC Power and Backup Battery
The system is powered by a 9VAC, 25VA Plug-in Transformer, ADEMCO K10145X10 (K10145CN in
Canada). Refer to the wiring table below for wire gauge and length.
Use only the provided ADEMCO K10145X10
or K10145CN Transformer.
Distance from Transformer
to Control
Wire Gauge
Up to 75 feet #20
75 to 150 feet #18
150 to 300 feet #16
Wiring to the AC Transformer must not exceed 300 feet using 16-gauge wire. The voltage reading
between terminals 15 and 16 of the control must not fall below 9.00VAC.
Do not plug the transformer into the AC outlet until after all wiring connections have been made.
Backup battery
In the event of an AC power loss, the system is supported by a long life backup battery that is supervised for
connection and for low voltage conditions. If the battery is missing, or a low battery condition is detected, a
“low battery” message is displayed and a report is sent to the central station. In addition, the system will beep
once every 45 seconds to audibly indicate a low battery condition (press any key to stop the beeping).
