Honeywell Home Intrusion 269SN V-plex Hold-up Switch

Product Description

The Honeywell Home Intrusion 269SN is a V-Plex hold-up switch designed for use in hardwired security and intrusion detection systems. It operates as both a latching and momentary switch with a double-pole double-throw (DPDT) configuration, giving installers flexibility in how the alarm trigger circuit is wired and monitored. The V-Plex protocol allows this device to communicate over a single twisted pair, reducing wiring complexity in larger installations. Security technicians and alarm system integrators are the primary trade professionals who specify and install this device.

The 269SN is suited for commercial and residential security installations where a concealed or accessible hold-up activation point is required. Typical deployment includes bank teller stations, retail cashier counters, reception desks, and other locations where a silent alarm trigger must be within discreet reach of personnel. The latching mode holds the alarm state after activation until reset, while the momentary mode sends a pulse signal, allowing the installer to match the switch behavior to the panel programming requirements.

Key Features

• Dual operating modes: latching and momentary, selectable at installation
• DPDT contact configuration for wiring flexibility across multiple circuit paths
• V-Plex protocol compatibility for single twisted-pair supervised loop wiring
• Compact form factor suited for concealed under-counter or desktop mounting
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed for use with V-Plex compatible intrusion detection and security control panels. Specific panel compatibility should be verified against the manufacturer data sheet and panel documentation prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed security or low-voltage alarm technician in accordance with local codes and the control panel manufacturer's wiring guidelines. Disable or isolate the affected zone on the control panel before connecting or disconnecting wiring. Verify the correct operating mode (latching vs. momentary) is selected to match the panel programming before finalizing the installation. Mounting location should be chosen to ensure the switch is accessible to authorized personnel but not visible or reachable by the general public.
