Terminals 6, 7, and 8 
6.4.1 Programming 
 
The power outputs at Terminals 6, 7, and 8 are 
programmed as Relays A, B, and C. All relays are 
programmed in the Relays section.  
Relays are assigned a relay type, (Fire Bell, for 
example) when they are assigned to an area. Relays 
can be assigned to one or more areas.  
The Bosch Security Systems, Inc. defaults set Relay 
A (Terminal 6) as a Steady Alarm Bell output, Relay B 
(Terminal 7) as a Pulsed Fire Bell output, and Relay C 
(Terminal 8) as a Verification or Reset output for 
smoke detectors. The D9412GV3/D7412GV3 
Program Entry Guide
 (P/N: F01U170807) contains 
complete instructions for programming relays. Refer 
to Sections 6.4.2 Terminals 6 and 76.4.3 Fire 
System Power Formula
, and 6.4.4 Terminal 8  on 
page 27 for descriptions of the functions of each 
terminal. 
Refer to the Bell Parameters section of the program to 
set the Fire Bell, Alarm Bell output responses for 
relays. Four annunciation patterns are available: 
Steady, Pulsed, California Standard, and Temporal 
Code 3.  
Voltage Output at Terminals 6, 7, and 8 
If Terminals 6, 7, and 8 do not provide the expected 
output, check: 
  Programming for Relays A, B, and C in the relays 
section of the program. 
  Bell Parameters section of the program to confirm 
that the Alarm and Fire Bell responses are 
programmed for the expected duration and 
pattern. 
  Point Assignments section to confirm that each 
point is programmed for the expected local 
response. 
6.4.2  Terminals 6 and 7 
When activated, Terminals 6 (Relay A) and 7 (Relay 
B), provide positive (+) 12.0 VDC Nominal power 
output. Use the power at Terminals 6 and 7 to power 
bells, siren drivers, piezoelectric fire sounders, 
electronic horns, or other devices.  
Programming determines the format of the output and 
the conditions that activate it. One self-resetting circuit 
breaker protects Terminals 6, 7, and 8 against shorts. 
When using Relay A or Relay B to activate notification 
appliance circuits in UL Listed fire alarm applications, 
install a D192G Indicating Circuit Module. 
Power Restricted for Fire and Combined Fire and 
Burglary Systems:
 Fire systems are prohibited from 
using the battery for determining alarm power. Use 
the fire system power formula that follows to calculate 
the current available for fire and combined fire and 
burglary systems.  
 
6.4.3  Fire System Power Formula 
To calculate the current available at Terminals 6 and 
7 for fire and combined fire and burglary systems: 
1.  Add together the current draws for all devices 
connected to Terminals 3, 8, 24, and 32, and the 
accessory connector. This is the total current 
required for the normal standby condition (NSC). 
2.  The current available for NSC is 1.4 A. Subtract 
the NSC current required calculated in Step 1 
from the NSC current available, 1.4 A. The 
difference is the alarm current available for 
Terminals 6 and 7. 
In formula format:  
1.4 A  
  NSC current

Alarm current 
available 
Refer to the D9412GV3/D7412GV3 Approved 
Applications Compliance Guide
 (P/N: F01U143069) 
for module or accessory current requirements. 
6.4.4  Terminal 8  
Terminal 8 provides continuous positive (+) 12.0 VDC 
Nominal power. Relay C interrupts the power at 
Terminal 8 when activated. Use Terminal 8 to power 
smoke detectors or other devices that are reset by 
interrupting power. One self-resetting circuit breaker 
protects Terminals 6, 7, and 8 against shorts. 
Verification and Reset Relay 
The default program sets Relay C (Terminal 8) as a 
verification and reset relay. Refer to Relay 
Parameters
 and Point Assignments in the 
D9412GV3/D7412GV3 Program Entry Guide 
(P/N: F01U170807) for instructions on programming 
verification and reset relays and points. 
Performing a sensor reset at a keypad produces a 
five-sec relay activation of verification and reset 
relays. The control panel ignores verification and 
resettable points during the five sec.
