Optional Accessories
CA2Z module (Class A initiating device circuit)
Converts two Class B initiating device circuits to two Class A circuits.
CAM Module (Class A Indicating Appliance Circuit)
Converts indicating appliance circuit from Class B to Class A. One model CAM (Class A Module) is required
for each circuit. (Do not use this on an output programmed as “TROUBLE BELL”.)
ARM-1/ARM-2 Module (Auxiliary Relay Module)
Activated by 24VDC Indicating and/or Releasing, polarity reversing circuits. The module provides a non-supervised DPDT Relay
that can be used for fan shutdown, door release, elevator recall, etc.
RA-4410RC (Remote Annunciator)
Connects to RS-485 & 24VDC terminals. Provides 34 LED’s for each zone in alarm supervisory, or trouble, each output activated
or in trouble, AC power, Power trouble, System trouble, Ground fault, Supervisory, Supervisory trouble, Alarm, Alarm silence and
Pre-discharge/Discharge.
Basic Operation
In addition to the following events, the panel also provides an output via the RS-485 terminals to the RA-4410-RC remote
annunciator to light the appropriate indicators. See remote annunciator operations, page 12. In addition, the remote annunciator
has a silenceable buzzer that sounds on supervisory or trouble conditions.
Initiating Device Circuits Alarm Condition
An increase of current on any alarm initiating device circuit to approximately 10 mA or greater will result in the following:
Alarm (Except zones programmed as LOW AIR ALARM):
1) Activation of the common alarm relay contacts.
2) Activation of the output circuit(s) which are mapped to the initiating device circuit(s). Providing all zone(s)
necessary for the activation of those circuits is in alarm
3) “ALARM” and zone # displayed on LCD.
4) Activation of the red ALARM LED in a fl ashing mode as well as corresponding zone. NOTE: The ALARM LED will continue
to fl ash until the Signal Silence button is pushed. The silence button will remove power from all outputs set up as Indicating
except those activated by zones programmed as Waterfl ow.
5) Activation of zones programmed as waterfl ow will operate the common waterfl ow relay contacts in addition to the above.
Note: If Zone 1 is programmed as Firecycle, an open circuit will result in the above.
