EOLM-1 (Standard Conventional Zones)

Each Zone on the panel that is configured for Standard 

Conventional mode must have the intelligent end of line module 

(EOLM-1™) fitted to continually monitor each zone for the pres-

ence of fault conditions such as detector head removal, open or 

short circuit and for end of line failures even when in a Fire condi-

tion (Figure 3) .
The EOLM-1™ module can be placed into the base of the last 

manual call point or detector base .

Figure 3. EOLM-1

 WARNING

RISK OF DAMAGE TO EOLM-1 IF CORRECT WIRING POLARITY 

IS NOT OBSERVED

Eaton Conventional Fire Panel only supports the EOLM-1, do not 

attempt to use any other type of EOLM module or use any resis-

tor value .

EOLR (Intrinsically Safe Conventional Zones & Sounder 

Circuits)

Any Detection Zone on the panel that is configured for Intrinsically 

Safe mode must separate the intrinsically safe devices from the 

panel using the intrinsically safe barrier MTL5561 .  The last device 

on the zone must be terminated with an End of Line Resistor 

(EOLR) of 5K1 to ensure proper fault and fire monitoring of the 

zone .
Any Sounder Circuit on the panel that is being used for Intrinsically 

Safe Sounders must separate the intrinsically safe alarm devices 

from the panel using the intrinsically safe barrier MTL7778ac .  

The last alarm device on the sounder circuit must be terminated 

with an End of Line Resistor (EOLR) of 6K8 to ensure proper fault 

monitoring of the circuit .

System Wiring

For zones configured in Conventional mode the zone is wired for 

Conventional detection (detectors and call points) devices only and 

must be terminated with an EOLM-1 embedded in the last device 

(Figure 4) . Intrinsically safe conventional detection devices cannot 

be wired onto a conventional zone .
For zones configured in Intrinsically Safe Conventional mode the 

zone is wired into the MTL5561 intrinsically safe barrier and all 

Intrinsically Safe Conventional detection (detectors and call points) 

devices are wired into the barrier with a 5K1 EOLR embedded in 

the last device . Standard conventional detection devices cannot be 

wired onto an intrinsically safe conventional zone .
For sounder outputs used with standard conventional alarm (wall/

base sounders, VADs and I/Os) devices the circuit must be termi-

nated with 6K8 EOLR embedded in the last device . Intrinsically 

safe alarm devices cannot be mixed with standard conventional 

alarm devices as an intrinsically safe barrier must be used (see 

above) .
For sounder outputs used with Intrinsically Safe alarm devices the 

circuit must be wired into the MTL7778ac intrinsically safe barrier 

and all Intrinsically Safe Conventional alarm (wall/base sounders, 

VADs and I/Os) devices are wired into the barrier with a 6K8 EOLR 

embedded in the last device . Standard conventional alarm devices 

cannot be mixed with intrinsically safe alarm devices .
