1. INTRODUCTION
. INTRODUCTION. INTRODUCTION
. INTRODUCTION
The MCT-100 S is a fully supervised, 2-input, magnetic contact
transmitter, designed for electronic security applications. Both
inputs can be set to operate with a normally closed (N.C.) loop, or
with an end-of-line (E.O.L.) loop in which both N.C. and N.O.
sensors can be used. An on-board programming DIP switch
allows the installer to disable input No. 1 (IN1) in applications
where only a single input is needed.
Each input has an individual 24-bit ID which identifies it to the
target receiver as if it were a separate transmitter.
Each ID is randomly selected in the factory from 16 million possible
code combinations. Compatible receivers can "learn" specific IDs
and respond only to them.
Disturbing an input loop of the MCT-100 S initiates transmission of
the specific input's ID followed by various status and mode
designators.
Alarm information and other data are thus forwarded to the alarm
control panel or to the head-end computer, depending on the type
of system in which the MCT-100 S is used. Since messages
transmitted by the MCT-100 S might collide with messages
transmitted by other SpiderAlert® transmitters, a "smart"
anti-collision transmission sequence is used.
The MCT-100 S is protected by a tamper switch, activated when
the cover is removed. Once the tamper switch contacts open, a
message will be transmitted from input 1 with the “tamper alert”
marker ON. If the installer disables input 1, the tamper situation
will be automatically reported by input 2 instead.
A periodic supervision message, distinguished by a specific
marker, is transmitted automatically from input 1 only (if enabled)
or from input 2 only (if input 1 is disabled) once in 60 minutes.
The receiver is thus informed, at regular intervals, of the
MCT-100 S active participation in the system. An indicator LED
lights during transmission whenever alarm or tamper events are
reported.
The LED does not light while a
supervision message is being
transmitted. Operating power is
obtained from an on-board 3.6 V
Lithium Thionyl-Chloride battery. A
weak battery will cause a "low
battery" designator to be added to
any message transmitted. Figure 1. General View
The Usage of Visonetix MCT-100 S and the Visonic MCT-100
MCT-100 S is designed for use in SpiderAlert networks. The
Visonic PowerCode version of the MCT-100 S is the MCT-100.
In applications that integrate SCP-552 R (wireless control panel)
and SR-500 (RF receiver), the usage of MCT-100 S and
MCT-100 must be as shown in figure 2.

3.1 Mounting
Remove the screw from the front cover (Fig. 4) and separate the
front cover from the base.
The plastic cap shown is supplied separately in a small nylon bag
- keep it for later use. Mount the base equipped with the printed
circuit board in the selected location, using the mounting and
wiring knockouts shown in Fig. 3.
3.2 Wiring
Route the wires through a wiring knockout in the base. If an input
is defined as a Normally Closed (N.C.) type (SW-1 or SW-2 are
set to OFF), series connected normally closed sensor contacts
must be used exclusively.
If an input is defined as an E.O.L. type, Normally Closed (N.C.)
as well as Normally Open (N.O.) sensor contacts can be used.
* SCP-552 R can receive signals from MCT-100 and from MCT-100 S.
In systems that include SCP-552R and SR-500, the SCP must
“learn” the MCT-100 and not the MCT-100 S, to prevent redundant
alarms at the PC. If SR-500 is not used, SCP-552 R can “learn”
either of the two units.
