Supervised Output for Automatic Release
Supervised Output for Open Circuits
Connect external wiring to the appropriate terminals
on the DCIO terminal block. See Figure 3-43.
Wire one or more releasing devices to the module
output.
NOTe
Make no connection to the “+ Supply” terminal.
The output of the DCIO module supervises the
releasing circuit via the coil of the releasing solenoid.
It is essential to use a releasing device approved for
use with this output module.
NOTe
This type of output does not require the use of
eOL resistors or diodes to supervise the circuit.
The output can be configured for latching, continuous
or timed response.
To ensure proper operating voltage, the maximum
wiring length from the power source to the DCIO
module must not exceed the values shown in Table
3-12 for automatic release applications.
NOTe
For solenoids, this wire length includes both the
wiring from the power supply to the DCIO
module and the wiring from the module to the
solenoid.
NOTe
Squibs are not compatible with this output.
Supervised Output for Deluge and Pre-action
Connect external wiring to the appropriate terminals
on the DCIO terminal block. See Figure 3-43. Wire
one or more releasing devices to the module output.
The output of the DCIO module supervises the
releasing circuit via the coil of the releasing solenoid.
It is essential to use a releasing device approved for
use with this output module.
NOTe
This type of output does not require the use of
eOL resistors or diodes to supervise the circuit.

manufacturer’s non-water based agent release
valves can be wired into the outputs of the ARM
or DCIO modules as long as the devices utilize
24 vdc and do not exceed 2 amperes current
draw.
NOTe
For FM system approval listing, pre-action and
deluge applications require that only FM
approved deluge valves can be wired into the
ARM or DCIO modules. Table 3-13 lists the
supported solenoid groups. Remember that the
valves must utilize 24 vdc and must not exceed
2 amperes current draw.
The output can be configured for latching, continuous
or timed response.
To ensure proper operating voltage, the input voltage
to the DCIO must be in the range from 21 to 30 vdc
and the maximum wiring length must not exceed the
values shown in Table 3-13 for deluge and pre-action
applications. Per FM Approval requirements, the
secondary power must provide capacity for a 90 hour
