Using Permaconn for Keyswitch on Zone on older Solution panels

Modified on Fri, 19 Jan, 2024 at 11:57 AM

Our older Solution panels used 12V Common for our zones


An Permaconn output will provide an GND when it switches


When used on our older panels you need to interface an12VDC relay to have the keyswitch work correctly


You will need to refer to the Quick Reference or Installation Manual for the specific panel to ensure you setup correct Zone type and Keyswitch function correctly.


When a zone is used as an Keyswitch the Zone Option 1 setting becomes the keyswitch option


This must be set otherwise Keyswitch will not operate as expected/ required.
