The Switch LED Modules are field configurable switch input and LED status indicator modules for use with
Advanced Axis
AX
fire alarm control panels. Each fire alarm control panel can accommodate a maximum of sixteen
(16) Switch LED Modules in any combination.
In addition to the switch and LED functionality, each module has an on-board programmable buzzer (piezo) for local
alerting of system status, events, etc.
The Axis
AX
Switch LED Modules are extremely flexible and easy to configure/program utilizing the Advanced PC-
NeT field configuration tool, which works in a Windows® environment. Switches can be programmed to bypass
(disable/enable) points, zones, and/or groups. They can also be programmed to turn On/Off relay points, NAC
circuits, city connections, or they can be configured to provide complete HOA (Hand-Off-Auto) control functionality.
When interfacing to Axis
AX
audio and command centers, controls can be configured for all call, selective zone/area
paging, individual message selection, fire fighter telephone selection, etc. LEDs can be programmed for a number
of different status indications by points, zones and/or groups within the system, including alarm, supervisory,
trouble, switch active, relay active, etc. In addition, the LEDs can be programmed for primary and secondary status
events, along with flash rates based on last known status/event (i.e.: off, on steady, 1/2 or 1 second flash). Easy
slide-in label pockets are provided on all modules, except the AX-I/O-48, allowing switches and LEDs to have
customized labeling based on installation usage.
