Pyrotronics System 3 - How Do I Get It Going?

Hi,

I have a Cerberus Pyrotronics System 3 that was removed from my dad’s work. I have the CP-35 main control board as well as some other cards.

I want to get this panel going, but I have no idea even where to get started. What cards do I need? Do I need a transformer? What terminals and ports do what? Is a battery charger card required?

I have included some pictures of the unit. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

First of all, I would start here by reading the manuals that apply to your system and the cards you have http://firealarmresources.com/cerberus-pyrotronics-system-3/.

What other cards do you have?

You don’t need the BC module, but you need a PS-35, which will have a jumper you can jump over to “P1” on the CP-35, that will give it power.

Pins 2&5 and 8&11 on the top are your initiating zones, and pins 32&35 are for your NAC circuit.

I found this link to a CP-35 manual download.

Thanks for the manuals. Now I understand it a little better. Wow, that PS-35 looks like it’s a pretty expensive card. I’ll have to be on the lookout for a free one.

Here are some cards I have:

ZN-34U
ZU-35
AE-30U
SM-30
SR-35
