Alarm Output from main fire alarm panel  

 
It is possible to trigger the unit by the removal of an external voltage using the bottom I/O 
terminal. 
The Interface Panel requires an external voltage of at least 5 

– 30V AC 

or DC. 

NOTE

 the maximum voltage must not exceed 30v AC or DC or damage 

will occur to the panel invalidating warranty.  

 

Fault conditions from Fire Safe panel  

 

 
The Fire Safe panel has a fault output to the main fire alarm panel 
provided via the top terminal block. A fault condition on the Fire Safe 
panel will cause a relay to be closed that will create an open circuit 
between common and normally closed (N/C) and a closed circuit 
between normally open (N/O) and common. 
 
A fault alarm will be given in the following conditions: 
 

  Mains failure 

  Battery charge failure or removal 

  Loss of radio signal 

 

Main PCB failure
