§ 01Overview
What the CM705PB is
The Bosch CM705PB is the PCB-only version of the CM705B universal expander for Solution 6000. On one board, it combines up to 16 zone inputs, 4 protected open-collector outputs rated at 500mA each, 6 Power Out terminals and a power supply with its own battery charger.
The module's zone side supports Single, Alarm+Tamper and Split EOL monitoring with up to 15 different EOL Resistor options, and the optional CM707B plug-on module brings the hard wired inputs to 16 for Alarm + Tamper or single EOL configurations. The outputs are monitored for short and open circuit and can supervise horn speakers and other connected devices, so a connected horn speaker is monitored in the same way as other output devices.
It takes a 16-18V AC 50-60Hz – 24VA input from an external power adaptor or internal transformer, charges a 12V DC, 7.2AH sealed battery as its secondary source, and offers a 2.5A PTC-fused COMM+ terminal for the onboard outputs plus 1A fused +12V outputs for detectors and other modules. It is specified at 10.0V DC – 14.5V Dc @ 90mA Max.
It connects to the panel over the 4-wire encrypted RS485 LAN, is addressed with a DIP switch, and carries anti-substitution protection and resettable fuse protection on the power terminals. It provides a Service Code Pad connection point and a dedicated tamper input; if the tamper input is not required, the supplied shunt can disable it.
It is a bare board, so a metal cabinet is not included. The module needs a separate primary power source and battery, and that primary source can be an external power adaptor or internal transformer; a suitable enclosure and mounting arrangement are also selected for the PCB-only module.
